This document lists the software compatibility matrix information for the Cisco wireless devices used in a Cisco centralized and distributed wireless LAN solution.
Table 3 lists the controller software releases that support specific Cisco access points. The First Support column lists the earliest controller software release that supports the access point. For access points that are not supported in ongoing releases, the Last Support column lists the last release that supports the access point.

1These access points are supported in the separate 4.1.19x.x mesh software release or with release 5.2 or later releases. These access points are not supported in the 4.2, 5.0, or 5.1 Releases.
Cisco Prime Network Control System Compatibility Matrix
Table 4 lists the compatibility matrix of Cisco Prime NCS, controller, access point images, Identity Services Engines (ISE), and mobility services engines (MSE).
1If you upgrade to the 7.1.91.0 software release of Cisco Wireless LAN Controller from an earlier release, we suggest that you also upgrade Cisco Wireless Control System to 7.0.220.0 and MSE to 7.0.220.0. This upgrade ensures that you get support for the latest 3600i and 3600e lightweight access points.
2If you upgrade to the 7.1.91.0 software release of Cisco Wireless LAN Controller from an earlier release, we suggest that you also upgrade Cisco Wireless Control System to 7.0.220.0 and MSE to 7.0.220.0. This upgrade ensures that you get support for the latest 3600i and 3600e lightweight access points.
Wireless Control System Compatibility Matrix
Table 5 lists the Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS) compatibility matrix.
Cisco WCS and Cisco WCS Navigator must be from the same release in order to be compatible (see Table 6). Although the release numbers will not be the same, you must verify whether they were part of the same release.
For example, Cisco WCS Navigator 1.0 is compatible with Cisco WCS 4.1, and Cisco WCS Navigator 1.1.x is compatible with any Cisco WCS 4.2.x.
Note When Cisco WCS Navigator is upgraded to a new version, the corresponding Cisco WCS must also be upgraded to the corresponding new version. For example, if Cisco WCS Navigator is upgraded to version 1.6, Cisco WCS must also be upgraded to the corresponding version 7.0.
Table 7 lists the compatibility matrix for the various releases of Cisco Mobility Services Engine, Cisco Wireless Control System, Cisco Prime Network Control System, Wireless LAN Controllers, 2710 Location Appliance, and AeroScout CLE.
