    When will 6.5.x.x be available for the IAP-205H?

    Hi, it is available from the Support site already. Are you refering to when it will be uploaded to the cloud for automatic download via the GUI? The firmwares posted to the cloud are generally available a few weeks later.

    Please look at the Lifetime Limited Warranty Site (LLW) here:  http://support.arubanetworks.com/LifetimeWarrantySoftware/tabid/121/DMXModule/661/Default.aspx?EntryId=20388

     

    6.5.x.x is considered "Early Deployment" Code and Early Deployment code does not show up when you click on "check for update".  Just download it from the LLW site and update your cluster...

    Thank you for your replies. I know how to load early deployment firmware.

     

    Currently I run the General Availability version 6.4.4.8-4.2.4.6. It explicitly says that the code is also for the 205H:

    ArubaInstant_Taurus_6.4.4.8-4.2.4.6_58505Aruba Instant code for IAP-204/205/205H

    When I look at the Early Deployment version 6.5.1.0-4.3.1.2, the 205H is not mentioned. I read that as this firmware is not suitable for the 205H.

    ArubaInstant_Taurus_6.5.1.0-4.3.1.2_58595Aruba Instant code for IAP-204/205

    Previously I loaded a firmware version which was marked for IAP204/205 on my 205H and it was bricked. I had to reload the previous firmware on the 205H via console.

     

    Can anyone clear this up?

    It should definitely work for the 205H.  They just simply removed the distinction.
