wism with SXI all okay here - you need to move to the new WISM control
method (wism service-vlan xxx ) - rather than the old manual port-channel
configuration method (though I think thats been true for a while) - you
may also need to have a particular code-release as minimum on the WISM -
we keep ours to latest stuff due to things like 802.11n - 7.0.x.x on ours
for a while now
