access point with controller question

Hello

In view of the installation where I have several APs (LWAPP) connected to a WLC and a radius server, whenever a host connects to say AP1, when authentication is performed on the radius server, RADIUS would communicate with the WLC directly or with the AP?

Sorry, am a bit confused, I just think that the only host I would have on the radius server must be the WLC.

Thank you.

Hello

RADIUS server would contact WLC. Your thoughts are right, that only WLC must be added as host AAA Radius server. There is no need to add the APs.

For more information please take a look at: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_configuration_example09186a0080665d18.shtml#c2

Kind regards

  • With the help of new access points with old WLC 4100; LWAPP layer 2 switching 3-tier

    Hi all

    We currently use two solutions Wiresless LAN - a 10 AP1230 access points-based autonomous (5 years) and a solution based on a Cisco WLC 4100 (4112, running 3.2) with 12 AP1010 LWAPP access points.

    First thing, we are considering to replace the stand-alone solution with the WLC one. However, I'm not sure if we can use the new access points such as the LAP1041N or the LAP1252G with our current 4100 WLC. Access reported data sheets 'Cisco Unified Wireless Network Software Release 7.0 or later version' 'software '. Does this mean that these access points can only be used with controllers running 7.0 or later?

    If we are unable to use the new access points with our current WLC and need to buy a new controller: can we use access points AP1010 current with a new WLC as the Cisco 4402?

    Second thing, it is that we want to expand the networks configured on the WLC 4100 to another site that is connected via VPN wireless. Wireless Setup guide indicates that the LWAPP mode can be changed from Layer 2 to 3 layers so that the access points can be configured with an IP address, which allows you to place access points basically anywhere as long as IP connectivity exists between the AP and the WLC.

    Y does it as described in a document with the change of mode LWAPP layer 2 to 3 layers? Or ist just the following steps (if I understand correctly):

    -Change the Mode of Transport LWAPP on the controller of layer 2 to 3 layers

    -Creation of a PA-manager interface with an IP address in the same subnet as the management interface (tried that, without changing LWAPP mode transport first and not was not possible - error)

    With regard to different sites:

    -Configure option DHCP 43 with the IP address of the WLC or DNS with CISCO-LWAPP - CONTROLLER.localdomain

    -Make sure that the interface ap - manager can reach points on the different site

    Is it really just as simple as that? All information about it is very appreciated!

    / edit: I would also like to know if the 1260 series access point are backward compatible with 802. 11B. Whereas it is stated in 1040 and 1250 for example series data sheets, it is not particularly mentioned in 1260 data sheet.

    Thank you

    Michael

    Well, let's start with the simple question/answer

    With regard to different sites:

    -Configure option DHCP 43 with the IP address of the WLC or DNS with CISCO-LWAPP - CONTROLLER.localdomain

    -Make sure that the interface ap - manager can reach points on the different site

    Yes, it's as simple as that.

    As for other issues, looks like you would be better served with a forklift upgrade.  New controllers and new AP.

    Now, the AP 1230/1240/1250. all work on the 4.2, 1140 code starts with 5.2 and 1040/3500/1260 are 7.0

    The AP 1000 series is not supported after 4.2 code.

    Refer to here for the complete list of the AP and taken codes supported:

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/wireless/controller/release/notes/crn7.0.html#wp610751

    From what I see, the 4100 is not supported after the train of 3.2.

    So, it really depends on what you are trying to accomplish with the upgrade.  If you are looking for a 80.211n support, you really want to be 5.2 or better, we had some problems with MRR + 40 Mhz channels, 4.2, 5 GHz band only.

  • Implementation of access point with WRT54GL

    Hi all

    I am very new to this wireless networking thing.

    I'm having some trouble with my wireless router.  My ISP gave me a wireless Huwaei modem but I live in a two-story apartment and modem from the ISP plays well on the second floor, the signal is very weak.

    My problem here is that I am trying to use my router to broadcast the signal to the floor.

    Is it possible to set up an access point with my Wi - Fi router?

    My idea is that the router would be placed in another part of the apartment and clone the signal from the modem wi - fi and move this signal. I want to place the wireless router in the second floor.

    Such an action is possible?

    Thank you very much for your help.

    You can set the WRT54GL as Access Point, both your two routers must be wired to the other...

    To make the two routers are wireless, is not not possible.

    For both routers works between them, connect the Ethernet cable between the LAN Port of your Modem to the Lan 1 Port on the Linksys router. Click here and follow the instructions how do your Linksys router works with your Modem.

  • Aironet 1140 access point / 1941 router question

    I currently have:

    -router (not wireless) 1941

    -Access point 1140

    Looks like I got the AP on controller instead of the standalone version.  My question is, the 1941 (not 1941W) has a wireless controller?  If not, is there a controller module I can add to my router?  Or I would return the AP I to the standalone version (or the 1941 for the 1941W)?

    Thanks in advance for any advice / help.

    It is not a controller which can go in the 1941. The controllers are quite expensive if you probably don't want to go this way in any case. Before you send the return of accreditation, Sue TAC and see if you can convert it to a standalone. Some AP support this, but I'm not sure of the 1140 series.

    It will be useful.

  • RV180W add the access point with itinerant support

    I have a client with a RV180w the latest firmware running.  We currently use the router as a router and provide wireless access.  We want to add a wireless coverage and I'm interested in our options.  We have a network unifying ethernet that we could use to give the new connectivity LAN AP.  Can buy us another RV180W and use it in AP mode and roaming wireless connectivity.  The customer wants a guest and business WLAN so we'll use the VLAN of the router.  How we set up the new AP?  Should we use WDS?   If we use WDS, can we still use WPA2?  Thank you for your help.

    Hello, Mr. Carl,.

    Yes is possible to use WDS and WPA2 at the same time.

    The master of accreditation will be setup as a RADIUS server to authenticate the other access points, while clients use the WPA2-PSK, which occupies the same on each access point.

    Let me share with you the information found on WDS and the configuration of basic, found on the guide me section.

  • 4402 wireless controller and the 1130AG access points

    I have a bunch of 1130AG (35) and 1231 points of access. I just bought a controller 4402 so I could handle these much easier access points. I currently have the offline access points, so I could control. With the wireless in the mix controller, that I have to fix these to light mode or can I leave them offline.

    We know not the operating instructions so I can leave them in stand-alone mode. Most of them is in the rafters in our warehuse, and I didn't have to pull of these if I have to. If I can use them offline, how can I do that?

    Thanks much for any info!

    Dave

    Hi Dave,.

    A WLC manages autonomous APs.
    So if you want to centralize the management of your APs through the WLC, you will need to convert it to light and enter them on the WLC.

    To convert the lightweight access points, you can choose between several options:

    1. thanks to a specific upgrade tool that you could install on a PC:
    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/partner/docs/wireless/access_point/conversion/LWAPP/upgrade/guide/lwapnote.html

    2. [the most evolutionary] by WCS, with a model of migration that could apply to several APs:
    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/wireless/WCS/7.0/Configuration/Guide/7_0apcfg.html#wp1054876

    3. [not in any book] by the following steps:
    3 (a) download the CEC lwapp recovery image and store it on a TFTP server.
    3 (b) Telnet to the stand-alone PA and issuing the following command:
    Archive Download-sw / overwrite/reload tftp: / // [lwapp recovery image file path]

    As a general recommendation, before to convert the lightweight access points, you can be sure that the wired infrastructure behind is ready to direct them to the WLC for recording.
    It's suggestions explained in the link on the above option #1.

    Hope this helps,

  • Problem with internet access point

    Hello, I saw that this question was asked before, but has never seen a solution to my problem, I will explain:

    I have like 5 months with this problem. I have a TP-LINK 300Mbps Wireless N Router, model No. TL-WR841ND. The fact is that when I plug in my router to the Modem, my wireless network seems to work fine, but when I try to connect to my computer or any other device to the network (mobile phones, playstation 3, tablets, etc.), I am unable to do so. On my laptop, I get the message: 'Problem with wireless adapter or access point', but the most confusing thing is that sometimes I can connect to the Internet via my network wireless without any problem.

    This time I decided to post my problem, because I'm tired of it. Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. Right now, I have two days without Internet connection (Via router), because my modem works properly.

    PS: I have another router (Linksys) and I can connect to this network, but I want to solve my problem with the TP-Link because the signal is stronger. Help!

    Hi Marc,

    Make sure first that your controller has software code 8.0.x or above, if first better it. Here's the code recommended by TAC

    http://www.Cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/wireless/wireless-LAN-Controller-software/200046-TAC-recommended-AireOS.html

    Then, try the UX above deployment guide to begin. Under Advanced tab WLAN, you need to enable "of the first universal ap' in order to use this app provisioning & connect to the AP.

    If you have more than 1 AP, then you must start 1AP using this application. Other access points that you can feed them upward, while AP original is also powered, so they'll use protocal called NDP & start them automatically

    Let us know how it goes

  • DHCP option to set the controller IP for Access Points (Airespace)

    Hello world.

    Does anyone have an idea to specify the controller using DHCP options.

    We use:

    -Controller AIR-WLC4404-100-K9

    -AP-1010-AP-5312 poinst access

    -Server dhcp DHCPd ISC 3.0.1

    Newspapers on DHCP server indicates that access points become the IP addresses, but the controller information are not "read" / "included".

    In the productive environment, controllers will be redundant.

    So far, we couldn't sucsessful with eighter of these configurations:

    Block i. using VTL:

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/products/HW/wireless/ps430/products_quick_start09186a00805100f5.html#wp49287

    subnet 10.50.107.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {}

    option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;

    routers option 10.50.107.1;

    option domain-name-servers 10.20.51.11, 10.20.51.12;

    option vendor-class-identify Airespace 1200;

    the option dhcp-client-identifier 0xf1, 8, 10.20.51.254, 10.20.51.249;

    default-lease-time 28800;

    range 10.50.107.101 10.50.107.200;

    }

    II. using the DHCP Next-Server option:

    subnet 10.50.107.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {}

    option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;

    routers option 10.50.107.1;

    option domain-name-servers 10.20.51.11, 10.20.51.12;

    Next-server 10.20.51.254;

    III. use of Header Information Option 43 described such in DHCP Manual:

    WLAN-apc code 60 option = text;

    ip address wlan code option 43 = controller;

    subnet 10.50.107.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {}

    option wlan-apc "Airespace.AP1200"

    option wlan controller - 10.20.51.254;

    IV. using header to the DHCP server information:

    class "-classes of suppliers ' {}

    vendor-class-identifier option match; }

    {"Airespace.AP1200" subclass "-classes of suppliers '}

    Next-server 10.20.51.254;

  • Beginner needs help with Aironet 1131 G Wireless Access Point

    I have a new Cisco Aironet 1131 G wireless access point.  It takes an IP address and I can ping this address.  However, I can't access it via the graphical user interface based on the web or the CLI.  I preformed reset.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I can't access that means? you are not able to go to the CONFIG T of the CLI prompt? and if you are in the same subnet as the AP, are you not able to open to the top of the GUI? If you are not able to then, with the command 'show version' on the AP CLI and see if your image is "RCVKW8". If so you will need to convert the same IOS using the method below.

    Hello

    I have controller Wireless LAN that is installed at the head office, we have allowed H-harvest so that the remote access can be registered with headquarters controller.

    Now, I have an access point to one of the remote site now, I want to give a static IP address to the AP through that console too, before saving the controller.

    I want to remove secondary and tertiary sector controller of high availability for each access point. I have more than 900 APs associated with a Version of the WLC 8510 8.0.121.0 software. What is the best/better way to remove secondary and tertiary controller?
    Or I can create a model first. We use version 2.2

    Hello

    Easiest way:

    Yes you can do this by using the first Cisco Infrastructure, you can create a Setup AP Lightweight model to specify the name of the PDC and the IP address and specify an empty value (choose the first empty option in the drop-down list) and 0.0.0.0 for the secondary and tertiary sector controllers.  Then you can apply this model to the AP, and she must remove (virgins all) values for these fields.

    Long way:

    Yes there is no clean way to remove it from the CLI. you need to manually remove each on the AP.
