Wireless Upgrades
We are starting the wireless upgrades today. The first piece to be upgraded is WCS. While it is being upgraded it will not be possible to create new guest accounts. I have created the user “uisguest” with password “uisguest” which can be used by anyone until the upgrades are complete.
The wireless controllers will be upgraded next week. Only portions of the wireless will be down at any one time.

The need to upgrade this service is due to our current version (4.1) is reaching it’s end of support by Research in Motion and to provide continued Microsoft Exchange service as we begin migrating UIS users to Exchange 2010. This upgrade will require that the server be temporarily unavailable during the upgrade process but will require no interaction by users.
