What's Changed in this Release

Dashboard

The following enhancements are made in the Cisco Spaces Dashboard:

Partial Import of Access Points from Controller
  • Prior to this enhancement, when adding locations using the AP prefix option (Connect WLC/Catalyst 9800 Directly or Connect via Spaces Connector):

    • AP import was not allowed if the number of APs exceeded the license limit. With this enhancement, you can now import APs as per the license limit.

    • If the license limit was reached, APs over and above the license limit that were available under the controller were not synchronized with Location Hierarchy. With this enhancement, priority is given to the APs with a common prefix over the APs present under the Unconfigured location. Those APs that are present under the Unconfigured location are removed during the synchronization process, making way for the synchronization of the APs with a common prefix, under the controller.

Impact Analysis
  • Event creation is restricted if the visits data that is available for an account is less than 30 days. In this scenario, default data is displayed.

Mapservice

The following enhancements are made in Mapservice:

  • Import of duplicate payload from Cisco Catalyst Center to Mapservice is restricted. In the Import History section, the following error message is displayed: Warning:Import ignored due to no changes in request payload.
