Important Notes
The Cisco IOS 12.2EWA image for the Cisco Catalyst 4948 does not work properly. Cisco Prime 
Infrastructure supports the Cisco IOS 12.2SG image for the Cisco Catalyst 4948 series. This is 
because of different sysOId's returned by Cisco IOS images.
For the TACACS+/RADIUS user authentication, the custom attributes related to the new features 
are required to be added/appended to the existing set of attributes in the AAA server to access certain 
pages/views. For RADIUS authentication and authorization in Prime Infrastructure 1.3.0.20, there 
is an alternate method available for the AAA users. Only the user role and virtual domain attributes 
can be configured in the AAA server (instead of copying the complete custom attribute task list from 
Prime Infrastructure to the AAA server).
After performing a major version upgrade of the Cisco Prime Infrastructure application, the browser 
cache on the client machines used to access the older version need to be cleared once so that the data 
for the old application is removed from the browser cache. Afterward connecting to the upgraded 
server works fine.
SWIM Image Management and Supported Devices—
 provides a brief overview about the 
different processes involved in managing software images and whether the processes are supported 
in the Unified Wireless LAN Controllers and devices.
