Q&A

Does Cisco Systems

still support the WDS feature?

Cisco Aironet Access Points, the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series WLSM, and previous Cisco IOS Software releases as mentioned earlier

in this document still support WDS.

If I am using a supported Cisco IOS Software release on my router but the WDS Fast Secure Roaming feature is not working

properly, can I call Cisco TAC?

Yes. Please open a case with Cisco TAC for any problems involving WDS Fast Secure Roaming on supported platforms running

Cisco IOS Software Release 12.3(11)T or 12.3(14)T. Please also make sure that the access points and clients used are also running

a supported software version (see Table 1).

We recently upgraded to a later version of Cisco IOS Software Release 12.4 for our network routers. If we run into any

problems with the Fast Secure Roaming feature, how can we get support?

WDS Fast Secure Roaming for the Cisco 2600XM, 2691, 3700, 2800, and 3800 routers is supported only under the following

conditions (also see Table 1):

●

Cisco Aironet client devices are running Cisco client firmware Version 5.20.17 or later.

●

Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(11)JA is running on the access point.

●

Cisco IOS Software Release 12.3 (11)T or 12.3(14)T is running on the wireless-aware router.

If the required Cisco IOS Software image versions cannot be run on the access points or routers, how can we still provide WDS

Fast Secure Roaming for our clients?

Fast Secure Roaming is supported on other Cisco devices such as Cisco Aironet Access Points and Cisco Catalyst 6500 WLSM.

You can also use the mobility services provided by the Cisco Unified Wireless Network solution and its related product platforms.

The appropriate solution will depend on the size (how many access points per subnet) and features that your network requires.
