Cisco has revealed that over 230 models of its Wi-Fi access points are generating 5MB of undeletable data daily, filling onboard flash memory and potentially preventing software updates. This issue stems from certain versions of Cisco IOS XE, which create a log file that cannot be deleted via the command line. Cisco warns that this could lead to software download failures and bootloops. The advisory includes testing procedures and remediation instructions for affected models, urging users to maintain updated inventories of their access point fleets.

Cisco's inaugural State of Wireless Report reveals that strategic wireless investments are enhancing business performance in Saudi Arabia. Organizations report significant gains in customer engagement (83%), operational efficiency (78%), employee productivity (75%), and revenue (67%). However, the report highlights the 'wireless AI paradox,' where AI drives ROI but also increases operational complexity, security risks, and talent shortages. To maximize returns, organizations must simplify operations, strengthen security, and develop skills. The findings underscore the importance of modern wireless infrastructure as a key driver of growth in the Kingdom.
