Known Issues:
- A RADIUS MAC ACL does not work with multi-PSK and a dynamic VLAN (DVLAN).
- mDNS: A device running Windows cannot discover certain printers.
Workaround: Manually add the IP address of the printer on the Windows device.
- mDNS: Even though Apple AirPlay services are discoverable, they might not be accessible.
- In Europe, issues might occur with the mesh formation between a root AP that is using the U-NII-1 or U-NII-2A channels and a model WAX610Y operating as a node (formerly called extender). Note that the U-NII-1 and U-NII-2A channels were removed from model WAX610Y in Europe so that the CE regulatory requirement could be met.
Workaround: Configure the root to use channels other than the U-NII-1 or U-NII-2A channels in 5 GHz radio band.
- An auto pop-up window might not display for clients while connecting to a guest SSID, or a delay might occur before the splash page displays.
Workaround: Use a web browser to access the Internet.
- An Intel wireless AC 9560 client running Windows 10 might not be able to connect when both PMF and 802.11r are enabled on the SSID.
Workaround: Disable PMF.
- Data path and client connectivity issues might occur when the AP is operating on a DFS channel and the channel width is set to 80 MHz
Workaround: Change the channel width to 40 MHz
- An older generation iOS device running iOS version 14.4.2 might not connect to an SSID that is configured for
WPA3-personal security.
Workaround: Update the device to the latest iOS version and change the SSID security to WPA3/WPA2 Personal.
- A MAC ACL might not work as expected when MAC randomization is enabled on a WiFi client.
Workaround: Disable MAC randomization on the WiFi client.
- Client connectivity and throughput-related interoperability issues might occur on a WiFi device that is running a Windows, Android, or iOS version when WPA3/WPA2 Personal security is enabled on the SSID.
Workaround: Update the WiFi device to the latest available Windows, Android, or iOS version, and update the device’s WiFi client to the latest driver.
- Interoperability issues might occur with certain clients when band steering is enabled.
Workaround: Disable band steering.
