New Features and Enhancements

AOS-W Instant Certificate Expiry Issue

Instant Access Points (IAP) fail to load the Trust Anchor (TA) certificate bundle if it encounters an expired certificate within the bundle, because of an
error in the AOS-W Instant software. This error impacts IAPs' ability to setup a secure SSL connection to Activate and OmniVista 3600 Air Manager,
resulting in loss of connectivity to management platforms.
To avoid this issue, upgrade to the latest version of AOS-W Instant Software, before February 7, 2020.

This issue is observed when the existing connection between IAP and the management platform is lost or if Activate or OmniVista 3600 Air Manager services
are reset.

For more information, see Aruba Support Advisory ARUBA-SA-20191219-PLVL08.

Enhancements to Control Ageout of Valid APs and Non-Valid APs

The following CLI commands are introduced in AOS-W Instant 8.6.0.3 to control the ageout of valid APs and non-valid APs:
n valid-ap-max-unseen-timeout <seconds>
n ap-max-unseen-timeout <seconds>

New Bug ID Old Bug ID Description Reported Version

AOS-187268 — A few APs crashed and rebooted unexpectedly. The log file listed the reason for AOS-W Instant 8.3.0.0
AOS-196356 the event as Reboot caused by kernel panic: Fatal exception. This issue
occurred when 802.11w standard was enabled on the AP. The fix ensures that
the APs work as expected. This issue was observed in APs running AOS-W
Instant 8.3.0.0 or later versions.

AOS-187773 — All OAW-IAPs in a cluster rebooted randomly and the log file listed the reason AOS-W Instant 8.4.0.1
AOS-196214 for the event as Gateway Unreachable. This issue occurred due to a packet
AOS-196551 counter error that triggered the reboot. The fix ensures that the APs do not
reboot randomly and work as expected. This issue was observed in APs running
AOS-W Instant 8.4.0.1 or later versions.

AOS-195491 — An OAW-IAP randomly generated OFALD messages and affected the quality of AOS-W Instant 8.3.0.7
the network. The fix ensures that unnecessary OFALD messages are not
generated and the network quality remains unaffected. This issue was
observed in APs running AOS-W Instant 8.3.0.7 or later versions.

AOS-195564 — A client lost its IP address when roaming. This issue occurred under the AOS-W Instant 8.3.0.0
AOS-196892 following scenarios:
AOS-198878 n When the client switched from the mesh portal AP to a mesh point AP, when
no other client was connected to the mesh portal AP.
n On AOS-W Instant networks in which Client VLAN Assignment was set to
Dynamic in the Network > VLAN tab of the webUI.
The fix ensures that clients retain their IP address when roaming between APs.
This issue was observed in APs running AOS-W Instant 8.3.0.0 or later versions.

AOS-195789 — An OAW-IAP reported high channel usage on the 5 GHz radio. The debug logs AOS-W Instant 8.4.0.1
showed high number of radio resets. The fix ensures that the OAW-IAP works

AOS-195948 — An OAW-AP535 access point crashed unexpectedly. This issue occurred when AOS-W Instant 8.6.0.0
split 5 GHz radio was enabled on the AP. The fix ensures that the AP works as
expected when Split 5 GHz radio is enabled on the AP. This issue is observed
in OAW-AP550 Series access points running AOS-W Instant 8.6.0.0 or later
versions.

AOS-196699 — OAW-AP515 access points crashed and rebooted unexpectedly. The cause for AOS-W Instant 8.6.0.0
AOS-199431 the reboot was AP Reboot reason: BadAddr:ceee391d5e20e542 PC:wlc_

AOS-199592 ensures that the APs work as expected. This issue was observed in OAW-AP515
access points running AOS-W Instant 8.6.0.0 or later versions.

AOS-197205 — An OAW-IAP crashed and rebooted unexpectedly. This issue occurred under AOS-W Instant 8.5.0.0
the following conditions:
n When a client connected to an SSID configured with bandwidth limit
contracts.
n When the AP used cellular uplink for internet connectivity.
The fix ensures that the AP does not reboot unexpectedly and works as
expected. This issue was observed in APs running AOS-W Instant 8.5.0.0 or
later versions.

AOS-197245 — The Facebook configuration link in the Configuration > Network > Security AOS-W Instant 8.4.0.6
AOS-197374 tab was not displayed. The fix ensures that the Facebook configuration link is
displayed in the webUI. This issue was observed in APs running AOS-W Instant
8.4.0.6 or later versions.

AOS-199612 — A few APs in an AOS-W Instant cluster reported the status in OmniVista 3600 AOS-W Instant 8.6.0.2
AOS-200367 Air Manager as Down and the CLI of the AP was unresponsive during this
AOS-200732 period. The fix ensures that the AP reports the correct status to OmniVista 3600
Air Manager and the CLI of the AP works as expected. This issue was observed
in AOS-W Instant AP clusters running AOS-W Instant 8.6.0.2.

 Chapter 7
Upgrading an OAW-IAP

This chapter describes the AOS-W Instant software upgrade procedures and the different methods for upgrading the image on the OAW-IAP.
Topics in this chapter include:
n Upgrading an OAW-IAP Using OmniVista 3600 Air Manager Management Platform on page 17
n Upgrading an OAW-IAP Image Manually Using WebUI on page 18
n Upgrading an OAW-IAP Image Manually Using CLI on page 21
n Upgrade from AOS-W Instant 6.4.x.x-4.2.x.x to AOS-W Instant 8.6.0.x on page 21

Upgrading an OAW-IAP Using OmniVista 3600 Air Manager Management Platform

If the multi-class OAW-IAP network is managed by OmniVista 3600 Air Manager, image upgrades can only be done through the OmniVista 3600 Air
Manager WebUI. The OAW-IAP images for different classes must be uploaded on the AMP server. If new OAW-IAPs joining the network need to
synchronize their software with the version running on the virtual Switch, and if the new OAW-IAP belongs to a different class, the image file for the
new OAW-IAP is provided by OmniVista 3600 Air Manager. If OmniVista 3600 Air Manager does not have the appropriate image file, the new OAW-IAP
will not be able to join the network.

HTTP Proxy Support through Zero Touch Provisioning

OAW-IAPs experience issues when connecting to OmniVista 3600 Air Manager, or Activate through the HTTP proxy server which requires a user name
and password. The ideal way to provide seamless connectivity for these cloud platforms is to supply the proxy information to the OAW-IAP through a
DHCP server.
Starting with Alcatel-Lucent AOS-W Instant 8.4.0.0, besides being able to authenticate to the HTTP proxy server, the factory default OAW-IAPs can also
communicate with the server through a HTTP proxy server DHCP which does not require authentication.
In order for the factory default OAW-IAP to automatically discover the proxy server, you need to configure the HTTP proxy information in the DHCP
server option to achieve this goal. The OAW-IAP will receive the proxy information and store it in a temporary file.
To retrieve the port and the proxy server information, you need to first configure the DHCP option 60 to ArubaInstantAP as shown below:
(Instant AP)(config)# ip dhcp <profile_name>
(Instant AP)("IP DHCP profile-name")# option 60 ArubaInstantAP

Secondly, use the following command to configure the proxy server:

(Instant AP)(config)# proxy server <host> <port> [<username> <password>]

AOS-W Instant 8.6.0.3 | Release Notes Upgrading an OAW-IAP | 17

 Use the text string option 148 text server=host_ip,port=PORT,username=USERNAME,password=PASSWORD to retrieve the details of the
proxy server.

Rolling Upgrade on OAW-IAPs with OmniVista 3600 Air Manager

Starting from AOS-W Instant 8.4.0.0, Rolling Upgrade for OAW-IAPs in standalone mode is supported with OmniVista 3600 Air Manager. The upgrade is
orchestrated through NMS and allows the OAW-IAPs deployed in standalone mode to be sequentially upgraded such that the APs upgrade and reboot
one at a time. With Rolling Upgrade, the impact of upgrading a site is reduced to a single AP at any given point in time. This enhances the overall
availability of the wireless network. For more information, see OmniVista 3600 Air Manager 8.2.8.2 AOS-W Instant Deployment Guide and OmniVista 3600
Air Manager 8.2.8.2 Release Notes.

Upgrading an OAW-IAP Image Manually Using WebUI
