How to install Cisco Software Support (SWSS) - Service 9800-cl Wireless Controll

SWSS is an entitlement rather than a traditional software install, but activating and leveraging it correctly ensures you receive ongoing maintenance, updates, and upgrades. Follow these practical steps to configure and begin benefiting from SWSS for your 9800-cl Wireless Controller:

  • Verify eligibility: Confirm that your Cisco software deployment includes a valid SWSS entitlement or is covered under an active SWSS contract. This ensures you have access to maintenance, updates, and upgrades as part of the service.
  • Log in to your Cisco software portal: Access the Cisco Software Center or the relevant license management portal associated with your organization. Use your enterprise credentials to authenticate and navigate to the entitlement management area.
  • Attach the SWSS entitlement: Link the SWSS entitlement to the 9800-cl Wireless Controller software instance or to the appropriate device record within your software inventory. This step associates the maintenance and upgrade rights with your specific deployment.
  • Configure update preferences: Set notification preferences for new releases, patches, and security advisories. Establish maintenance windows and automatic update policies if supported by your environment to minimize disruption.
  • Validate and monitor: After activation, verify that the controller shows an active SWSS status, monitor for new release notices, and plan testing in a staging environment before applying any major upgrades to production.

Pretty good size, and storage but it moves a little.
Color: Black, Size: 7.9" x 3.7" x 6.2"
I ordered this in black, and it holds a large bottle of hand soap, my dish wand, and two other sponges/scrubbers. It really does drain into the sink, but you have to be careful to place it on the edge of the sink, or the water will drip onto the counter. Also, it's very light, so if you only have a few items in it, it's likely to move or fall when you reach for a sponge. Since we put a solid bottle of hand soap in there, it is much more stable, even when I'm using the pump dispenser. I can't tell if it's rustproof for long-term use, but so far it's functional after adding something to weigh it down. I like it much better than the flat sponge caddy we had before, and the quality seems good. I would like it to be more stable, but otherwise it's useful

Compact, Versatile, and No Rust So Far
Color: Black, Size: 7.9" x 3.7" x 6.2", Color: Black, Size: 7.9" x 3.7" x 6.2"
I looked around quite a bit before buying this because a lot of sellers offer the same or very similar design. I even saw versions with a dedicated spot for a Scrub Daddy, but I didn’t feel like paying extra for that. I went with this one hoping it would still work for my setup, and it absolutely does. I’m limited on counter space, and this doesn’t take up much room at all. The removable brush holder cup is a big plus, I removed it and use that space for my Sponge Daddy, which fits perfectly. It also fits my hand soap and dish soap bottles without any issues, and I use the brush holder section to hold clean utensils. I’ve been using this for almost two months now and wash dishes constantly, so there’s pretty much always some water dripping from the sponge while it dries. So far, there’s been no rusting and no color chipping, which was something I was concerned about. Overall, it works perfectly for my needs and feels well made.
