Cisco Cisco 2700 Series Wireless Location Appliance Notas de publicación

After a software update, the new location appliance software version does not immediately appear in 
location server queries on WCS. Up to five minutes is required for the new version to appear. WCS, by 
default, queries the location appliance every five minutes for status.

This section describes important information about new features and operational notes for software 
release 3.0.37.0 for location appliances.

The following operational notes are relevant to this release.

You must change the default root password during initial configuration of the location appliance to 
ensure optimum network security. 

For releases 2.1.34 and later, you are prompted to change the password during the setup script.

You can also change the password using the Linux command, “passwd.”

The United States has changed the start and end dates of Daylight Saving Time (DST) for 2007. In 2007, 
DST within the US will begin on the second Sunday in March and end on the first Sunday in November. 
A mandatory upgrade to release 2.1.42.0 or greater which incorporates support for this new DST period 
is required to prevent incorrect time reporting during certain periods of DST. Specifically, not upgrading 
your location appliance to version 2.1.42.0 will result in incorrect time reporting from March 11, 2007 
through April 2, 2007 and from October 29, 2007 through November 4, 2007. 

Beginning with release 2.1.34, an automatic setup wizard is available to step you through the initial setup 
of the location appliance. You also have the option of setting up the location appliance manually. 

An example of the complete automatic setup script (and manual setup process) is provided in the Cisco 
2700 Series Installation and Configuration Guide. You can find this document online at 

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6386/prod_installation_guides_list.html.

The WCS timestamp is based on the browser’s location and not on the location appliance settings. 
Changing the time zone of the WCS or on the location appliance does not change the timestamp for the 
location history.
