AP-335 not showing in 3400 Controller GUI

    Posted Jul 26, 2016 06:06 PM

    I have a 3400 controller running what I believe to be the latest supported release of Aruba OS: 6.4.4.8.

    I just bought a AP-335 and its showing as Aruba OS 6.5.0.0 in the serial console.

    Unfortunately, although it gets an IP address, the Ap never shows up in the controller GUI.

    I thought I would need to upgrade the controller but it shows in the 6.5 release notes that 6.4.4.8 is the last supported release for my controller is 6.4.4.x.

    is this a common problem and easy to fix?

    Anyone have any ideas whats wrong here?

    Thanks in advance.

    You need AOS 6.5 and a controller that supports 6.5.

    Thanks for the quick answer.

    MMhhh thats not so good.

    Didnt want to be buying a new controller to use this AP.

    Cant seem to find the IAP-335 for sale anywhere either.

    Any idea if Aruba/HPE is planning on supporting 6.5 on this controller?

    AOS 6.4.4 is the last version to be supported on the 3000 series.

    I finally got my new controller.

    Its the 7010 and I loaded 6.5.0.0 on there:

    Aruba Networks
    ArubaOS Version 6.5.0.0 (build 55392 / label #55392)
    Built by p4build@chios on 2016-06-10 at 23:28:45 PDT (gcc version 4.4.5)
    (c) Copyright 2015 Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LP.

     

    When it boots up and I log into the console I get an error that doesnt make any sense to me since it doenst have any AP connected yet: 

    Ancillary image stored on flash is not for this release
    *********************************************************************
    * WARNING: An additional image upgrade is required to complete the *
    * installation of the AP and WebUI files. Please upgrade the boot *
    * partition again and reload the controller. *
    *********************************************************************

    Is this a common issue with 6.5.0.0 on a 7010 controller?

    thanks in advance,
