We recently upgraded from 7.0.116.0 to 7.0.220.0 to resolve a bug we were experiencing with connectivity. After upgrading, we hit a new bug in 7.0.220.0. This new bug only became apparent, because we have WCS Email alerts configured.

After we upgraded to 7.0.220.0 we almost immediately started to receive the following WCS Email alerts. We had random access points going offline. After closer inspection, the access points showed the "AP Crashed Due To Software Failure"

Message: Access Point 'AA-1131' associated to controller 'xx.xx.xx.xx' on port number '0'. Reason for association 'AP Crashed Due To Software Failure '.
Message: Access Point 'AB-1131' associated to controller 'XX.XX.XX.XX' on port number '0'. Reason for association 'AP Crashed Due To Software Failure '.
Message: Access Point 'AC-1131' associated to controller 'XX.XX.XX.XX' on port number '0'. Reason for association 'AP Crashed Due To Software Failure '.
Message: Access Point 'AD-1131' associated to controller 'XX.XX.XX.XX' on port number '0'. Reason for association 'AP Crashed Due To Software Failure '.

We opened a ticket only to learn 7.0.220.0 has a bug specific to Cisco 1130/1131 access points. TAC mentioned this bug is resolved in 7.0.230.0.
