Efficient Image Upgrade
Efficient Image upgrade is an efficient way of predownloading the image to the APs. It works similar to primary – subordinate model. An AP per model becomes the primary AP and downloads image from the controller through the WAN link. Once the primary AP has the downloaded image, the subordinate APs starts downloading the image from the primary AP. In this way, WAN latency is reduced. Primary AP selection is dynamic and random. A maximum of three subordinate APs per AP model can download the image from the primary AP.
Note Do not enable this feature on controllers running Cisco IOS XE Amsterdam 17.3.x when there are Cisco Catalyst 9124AX and Cisco Catalyst 9130AX APs in the same group.

वैशिष्ट्य
Out-of-Band AP Image Download
वैशिष्ट्य माहिती
The AP image upgrade method is enhanced to make the upgrades faster and more flexible.
Information About Out-of-Band AP Image Download
In WLAN deployments, the APs gather their software image and configuration from the controller (in-band) during the join, predownload, and upgrade phases over the CAPWAP control path. This mechanism has limitations in the context of CAPWAP window size, processing of CAPWAP packets, and parallel image downloads. With image upgrade being a significant activity in the lifecycle of APs, upgrades become a time-consuming activity when the deployment size increases, especially for remote deployments, because the image always comes from the controller, irrespective of the deployment types.
To make upgrades faster and more flexible, the AP image upgrade method is enhanced in Cisco IOS XE Dublin 17.11.1 release. An enhanced webserver (nginx) running on the controller helps the AP image downloads to be available out of the CAPWAP path (out of band).
नोंद
· HTTPS configuration done at the global level applies to all the APs joining the controller.
· When AP image download over an Out-of-Band method fails, the download falls back to the CAPWAP method, as a result of which the APs will not be stranded.
· AP image download over HTTPS may fail if the HTTPS server Trustpoint has a chain of CA certificates.
· Before you downgrade from Cisco IOS XE Dublin 17.11.1 to an earlier version, ensure that the Out-of-Band AP Image Download feature is disabled, as it is not supported in previous releases.

Restrictions for Out-of-Band AP Image Download
This feature is not supported on the following platforms: · Cisco Embedded Wireless Controller on Catalyst Access Points · Cisco Embedded Wireless Controller on Catalyst Switches · Cisco Wave 1 Access Points
Download AP Image from Controller Using HTTPS (CLI)
Before you begin · HTTPS configuration must be enabled.
· The ngnix server must be running on the controller. Use the show platform software yang-management process command to check whether the ngnix server is running.
· The custom-configured port must be reachable between the controller and the corresponding AP.

Configures a custom port for image download from the nginx server running on the controller.
For HTTPS port, the valid values range from 0 to 65535, with a default of 8443. You cannot use port 443 for AP file transfers because it is the default port used for other HTTPS requests. Also, avoid configuring standard and well-known ports because the configuration may fail.

By default, the Efficient AP image download feature uses port 8443 for HTTPS. If the same port is configured for HTTPS access for controller GUI, then GUI access will not work. In such instances, use a port number other than 8443 for controller GUI Access or configure a different port for AP file transfer over HTTPS instead of 8443.
The port 8443 is customazible. A sample config is given below:
Source= wireless controller Destination= Access Point Protocol=HTTPS Destination Port=8443 Source Port=any Description= “Out of Band AP Image Download”

Choose Configuration > Wireless > Wireless Global.
In the AP Image Upgrade section, enable the HTTPS Method to allow image download on APs from the controller, over HTTPS. This out-of-band file transfer is an efficient method for AP image upgrade.
नोंद
The AP should support out-of-band image download. You can verify this in the Configuration
> Wireless > Access Points window. Select the AP, and in the Edit AP > Advanced tab, view
the details of the support in the AP Image Management section.
Enter the HTTPS Port to designate AP file transfers on that port. Valid values range from 0 to 65535, with the default being 8443. Note that you cannot use port 443 for AP file transfers because that is the default port for other HTTPS requests.
By default, the Efficient AP image download feature uses port 8443 for HTTPS. If the same port is configured for HTTPS access for controller GUI, then GUI access will not work. In such instances, use a port number other than 8443 for controller GUI Access or configure a different port for AP file transfer over HTTPS instead of 8443.
