Note


The Cisco Mobility Express wireless network solution is available starting from Cisco Wireless Release 8.1.122.0.

We recommend that you view the field notices for this release to check whether your software or hardware platforms are affected. If you have an account on Cisco.com, you can find the field notices at: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/web/tsd-products-field-notice-summary.html.

Overview of Cisco Mobility Express

The Cisco Mobility Express wireless network solution comprises of at least one 802.11ac Wave 2 Cisco Aironet Series access point (AP) with an in-built software-based wireless controller managing other APs in the network.

The AP acting as the controller is referred to as the primary AP while the other APs in the Cisco Mobility Express network, which are managed by this primary AP, are referred to as subordinate APs.

In addition to acting as a controller, the primary AP also operates as an AP to serve clients along with the subordinate APs.

Cisco Mobility Express provides most features of a controller and has the capability to interface with the following:

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure—For simplified network management, including managing AP groups

  • Cisco Identity Services Engine—For advanced policy enforcement

  • Connected Mobile Experiences (CMX)—For providing presence analytics and guest access using Connect & Engage

For more information about the Cisco Mobility Express solution, including its setup and configuration, see the relevant user guide at:

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/wireless/mobility-express/products-installation-and-configuration-guides-list.html

Installing Cisco Mobility Express Software

For software installation instructions, see the “Getting Started” section in the relevant user guide at:

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/wireless/mobility-express/products-installation-and-configuration-guides-list.html


Note


Updating the Cisco Mobility Express software directly from Cisco.com is no longer supported. To update the software, you may use the other methods listed in the Updating the Cisco Mobility Express Software section of the Cisco Mobility Express User guide.


Limitations and Caveats

Known Limitations

  • Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)v3 is not supported on Cisco Aironet Wave 2 APs.

  • If you have IPv6 flex ACLs configured in the Cisco Mobility Express network, you may face issues downgrading the Cisco Mobility Express software image from Cisco Wireless Release 8.7.102.0 or newer to Cisco Wireless Release 8.6.101.0 or older.

    This issue can be resolved by removing all IPv6 ACLs as these are not supported in Cisco Mobility Express, Release 8.6.101.0 or older.

  • If the Cisco AP has a Cisco Mobility Express software image, it will not support link aggregation groups (LAG) even if it is 802.3ad (LACP)-compliant.

  • Over-the-DS fast BSS transition and fast transition PSK authentication are not supported.

  • Starting from Cisco Mobility Express Release 8.8.111.0, when you set the Security Type for a WLAN to Central Web Auth, the required ACLs are no longer auto-generated. You must create the ACLs manually.

Caveats

Caveats describe unexpected behavior in the Cisco Mobility Express network solution. Severity 1 caveats are the most serious while Severity 2 caveats are less serious. Severity 3 caveats are moderately serious and only select severity 3 caveats are listed here.

This section provides lists of open and resolved caveats in the Cisco Mobility Express network solution for this release. The following information is provided for each caveat:

  • Identifier—Each caveat is assigned a unique identifier (ID) with a pattern of CSCxxNNNNN, where x is any letter (a-z) and N is any number (0-9). These IDs are frequently referenced in Cisco documentation, such as Security Advisories, Field Notices and other Cisco support documents. Technical Assistance Center (TAC) engineers or other Cisco staff can also provide you with the ID for a specific caveat.

  • Description—A description of what is observed when the caveat occurs.

Cisco Bug Search Tool

The Cisco Bug Search Tool (BST), which is the online successor to the Bug Toolkit, is designed to improve the effectiveness in network risk management and device troubleshooting. The BST allows partners and customers to search for software bugs based on product, release, and keyword, and aggregates key data, such as bug details, product, and version. The tool has a provision to filter bugs based on credentials to provide external and internal bug views for the search input.

For more information about how to use the Cisco Bug Search Tool effectively, including how to set email alerts for bugs, filter bugs, and save bugs and searches, see the Bug Search Tool Help & FAQ page.

You can access the listed bugs through the BST. This web-based tool provides you with access to the Cisco bug tracking system, which maintains information about bugs and vulnerabilities in the Cisco Mobility Express network solution and other Cisco hardware and software products.

Click the Caveat Identifier number in the table. The corresponding BST page is displayed with details of the bug.
