WCS and Navigator Compatibility

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.
