Wired Guest Access—Uses Ethernet in IP (RFC3378) within the centralized architecture to create a tunnel across a Layer 3 topology between two WLC endpoints. No additional protocols or segmentation techniques are needed to isolate guest traffic from the enterprise.
For information about open and resolved caveats, see “Caveats” section.
What’s New in Cisco IOS XE Release 3.3.0SE
Wireshark—A packet analyzer program that supports multiple protocols and presents information in a text-based user interface. Wireshark analyzes wired traffic and wireless traffic.
Wired Guest Access—Uses Ethernet in IP (RFC3378) within the centralized architecture to create a tunnel across a Layer 3 topology between two WLC endpoints. No additional protocols or segmentation techniques are needed to isolate guest traffic from the enterprise.
Service Discovery Gateway feature—Enables multicast Domain Name System (mDNS) to operate across Layer 3 boundaries by filtering, caching, and redistributing services from one Layer 3 domain to another. This feature enhances Bring Your Own Device (BYOD).
Captive Portal Bypassing for Local Web Authentication—Support for Apple devices that need to resolve Wireless Internet Service Provider roaming (WISPr) and have support for captive portal bypass.
Multicast Fast Convergence with Flex Links Failover feature—Reduces the convergence time of multicast traffic after a Flex Links failure.
High Availability (HA)
– Controller Stack—This release supports a stack of two controllers connected using the stack cable, working together using the Cisco StackWise-480 technology. The HA feature is enabled by default when the controllers are connected using the stack cable and the Cisco StackWise-480 technology is enabled.
– Access Point Stateful Switchover—Controller supports 1000 access points and 12000 clients. When a switchover from the active controller to standby controller occurs, the access points continue to remain connected during the active-to-standby switchover. However, all the clients are deauthenticated and need to be reassociated with the new active controller.
Client Count per WLAN—You can configure client limits per WLAN, per AP per WLAN, and per AP per Radio. The number of clients that you can configure for each WLAN depends on the platform that you are using.
802.11w support—Support for the 802.11w standard as defined by the Management Frame Protection (MFP) service. Disassociation, Deauthentication, and Robust Action frames increase Wi-Fi network security by protecting the management frames from being spoofed.
802.11r support in local mode—Support for IEEE Standard for fast roaming allows the handshake with the new access point before the client roams to the target access point. Allows clients to move between access points without breaking a session.
Wi-Fi Direct Client Policy—Devices that are Wi-Fi Direct capable can connect directly to each other quickly and conveniently to do tasks such as printing, synchronization, and sharing of data. Wi-Fi Direct devices may associate with multiple peer-to-peer (P2P) devices and with infrastructure wireless LANs (WLANs) concurrently. You can use the controller to configure the Wi-Fi Direct Client Policy, on a per WLAN basis, where you can allow or disallow association of Wi-Fi devices with infrastructure WLANs, or disable Wi-Fi Direct Client Policy altogether for WLANs.
Assisted Roaming—The 802.11k standard allows clients to request neighbor reports containing information about known neighbor access points that are candidates for a service set transition. The use of the 802.11k neighbor list can limit the need for active and passive scanning. The assisted roaming feature is based on an intelligent and client-optimized neighbor list.
Support for IPv6 wireless clients—Client policies can have IPv4 and IPv6 filters.
Support for 802.11ac module—The 802.11ac radio module, which is based on the IEEE 802.11ac Wave 1 standard, is available on the Cisco lightweight access points.
The 802.11ac module provides enterprise-class reliability and wired-network-like performance. The 802.11ac module supports three spatial streams and 80 MHz-wide channels for a maximum data rate of 1.3 Gbps. The 802.11ac standard is a 5-GHz-only technology, which is faster and a more scalable version of the 802.11n standard.
Application Visibility and Control—Classifies applications using deep packet inspection techniques with the Network-Based Application Recognition (NBAR2) engine and provides application-level visibility into Wi-Fi networks.
Note The capability of dropping or marking the data traffic (control part) is not supported in the Cisco IOS XE 3.3.0SE.
Security Enhancements
– Manage Rogue devices—The controller continuously monitors all the nearby access points and automatically discovers and collects information on rogue access points and clients. When the controller discovers a rogue access point, it uses the Rogue Location Discovery Protocol (RLDP) to determine if the rogue is attached to your network. For more information about managing rogue devices, see the “Managing Rogue Devices” section in the System Management Configuration Guide.
– Classify rogue access points—The controller software enables you to create rules that can organize and display rogue access points as Friendly, Malicious, or Unclassified. For more information about classifying rogue access points, see the “Classifying Rogue Access Points” section in the System Management Configuration Guide.
– wIPS—The Cisco Adaptive wireless intrusion prevention system (wIPS) continually monitors wireless traffic on both the wired and wireless networks and uses network intelligence to analyze attacks and more accurately pinpoint and proactively prevent attacks in the future. You can configure an access point to work in wIPS mode if the access point is in the Monitor or Local mode.
– Radio Frequency Grouping—A radio frequency (RF) group is a logical collection of controllers that coordinate to perform radio resource management (RRM) in a globally optimized manner to perform network calculations on a per-radio basis. An RF group exists for each 802.11 network type. Clustering controllers into a single RF group enables the RRM algorithms to scale beyond the capabilities of a single controller.
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol Server mode—Operates as the backend database for web authentication to retrieve user credentials and authenticate the user.
Wireless Flexible NetFlow—Enables flow monitoring and control of wireless traffic.
Enhanced QoS support for wireless IPv6 clients—Support for IPv6 ACLs and DSCP-matching of IPv6 packets.

Upgrading the Controller Software
To upgrade the Cisco IOS XE software, use the software install privileged EXEC command to install the packages from a new software bundle file. You can install the software bundle from the local storage media or it can be installed over the network using TFTP or FTP.
The software instal l al lcommand expands the package files from the specified source bundle file and copies them to the local flash: storage device. When the source bundle is specified as a tftp: or ftp: URL, the bundle file is first downloaded into the switch's memory (RAM); the bundle file is not copied to local storage media.
After the package files are expanded and copied to flash: the running provisioning file (flash:packages.conf) is updated to reflect the newly installed packages, and the controller displays a reload prompt.
[1]: Finished installing software. New software will load on reboot.
[1]: Committing provisioning file
[1]: Do you want to proceed with reload? [yes/no]:

The Bug Search Tool (BST), which is the online successor to 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.
