This release note for Extreme Networks IQ Engine version 10.8.5c describes defect resolutions, known limitations, and platform support details for enterprise wireless access point deployments managed using ExtremeCloud IQ 25.7.0 and later. The release introduces no new features or hardware support and instead concentrates on corrective maintenance to improve reliability, security, and operational consistency across supported access point models, including the AP3000, AP4000, AP5000, and AP4060 families. Addressed issues in this release include fixes for authentication and access control behavior (802.1X, EAP‑TLS, WPA2/WPA3, legacy PEAP‑MSCHAPv2), client roaming and reassociation stability, QoS rate‑limiting enforcement, VLAN reassignment accuracy, and multicast and ECWP roaming scenarios. A documented known issue identifies boot failures caused by unsupported micro‑USB console cables with a defined workaround. The content targets experienced network administrators and wireless engineers responsible for upgrading, validating, and troubleshooting production IQ Engine deployments.
