• Cisco WLC 2504 - Access Points do not reach the controller

  Hello world

  We bougth a Cisco WLC 2504 with two AIR-AP2702I-UXK9 Access Points. The problem is that the AP do not join the WLC.

  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

• Cisco WLC 2504 internal DHCP does not work properly

  Hi all

  I m trials with a Cisco WLC 2504 and some APs of 1832. I set up a DHCP scope on the interface of the controller with 2

  a large number of different configurations, but the DHCP protocol does not work and Don t Access Point to obtain an IP address. My first question: is it possible to do DHCP for Access Points or only for wireless clients?

  These are my interfaces:

  Interfaces

  

  Interface of the PA-Manager:

  Interfaces1

  

  Interfaces2

  

  My DHCP scope:

  Scope1 DHCP

  

  Portee2 DHCP

  

  Advanced DHCP:

  DHCP Scope3

  

  I forgot something? Is there anyone using DHCP for its access points?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  On Cisco WLC internal DHCP, you can add the option 43 to say where APs must register. In this case, they will try to resolve the DNS CISCO-CAPWAP-CONTROLLER or CISCO-LWAPP entry.

  Let me explain briefly how AP-Manager works on WLC:

  1. Boots of Access Point and sends a discovery request to the management interface of the controller using the intellectual property you configured as DHCP Option 43 (as described above, it can be resolved by the DNS entry)
  2. Controller, sends it a response discovered that contains the name of the system, addresses AP-Manager, the number of access points already connected to each interface AP-Manager and the overall capacity of the controller.
  3. Joints access point controller using the less loaded interface AP Manager.

  With this, every AP Manager must have a good configured interface and be connected to a different port, no LAG.

  I drop a post here sometimes there is which might help:

• WLAN how can I use with Cisco WLC 2504

  I have two companies co-implantant and to decrease costs would like to implement a single Cisco WLC and separate traffic with the VLAN. I see that the controllers of the series Cisco WLC 2500 min supported number of WLAN: 5 and max: 75. That means actually? When I create more than 3 WLAN on a controller, the best practices page advises me against the use of more than 3 WLAN. Is it good to have more than 3 Wireless LANs, and what are the penalties to do?

  5 and 75 are the number of points WLC can support access light weight.

  By default, 2504 can manage up to 5 access points. You can increase this number up to 75 by adding the new license.

  Also, it can support up to 16 different WLANs (SSID)

• License of Cisco WLC

  Hi all

  Could someone help me, I have Cisco WLC 5508 with details of license as the photo below as a status "in use".  My question can I used another license with inactive status?

  WLC - license.jpg

  

  5508 as the 2504 can only use licenses that have been purchased and installed or if eval has not expired. If you exceed the number of licenses of AP, then you need to activate the eval, if not expired. You will not be able to do both. The newer controllers who have the right of use license, you would be able to do.

• WLC 2504 cannot access the GUI...

  Hi all

  I'm not sure what I did wrong, the 2504 itself has only 4 ports and no port management but I heard it's actually port 1 (even if there are no labels for this). That's what I've done so far to try to access the GUI:

  in CLI mode, I have

  (1) put AP managament address like 10.151.55.129 255.255.255.224.

  (2) I have activated the adminmode on port 1, which I assume is management port and enabling admin mode is the same as "no shut" on switches I guess; Here is the command I entered:

  (Cisco Controller) config > adminmode port 1 turn on

  (3) enabled HTTPS/HTTP through commands:

  (Cisco Controller) config > activate network secureweb

  (Cisco Controller) config > activate network web-auth secureweb

  (Cisco Controller) config > network webmode enable

  (4) I then reset system and verify that the changes took place to help display the synthesis network, as shown below. I also activated mgmt via dynamic interface to see if it makes a difference:

  (5) I installed my PORTABLE NIC to be 10.151.55.20 255.255.255.224 and connected to port 1 on wlc 2504; but I can't ping 10.151.55.29 nor do I navigate to https://10.151.55.29/. The port appears upwards (the flashing green lights on port 1 and Portable NIC also Flash).

  Any help would be appreciated

  If your connection to your laptop direct to port 1, then you have untagged the management vlan. Now you have configured for vlan 10, you must set to vlan 0.

  You will then be able to ping to the management interface and connect to it through the user interface.

• Cisco WLC license evaluation of Access Point

  Hello

  I would like to know what is happening to access connected to a Cisco WLC points if the evaluation license reached its expiration date and other licenses have not yet been installed all connected access points would cease immediately operation?

  Kind regards

  Mark

  Yes, they would stop working.

  Note: when you add licenses a reboot is required. Even if the number of supported the HA increases on reset controller is always necessary for these devices to register on the controller under the permanent license. I once added licenses and when I saw the number of the AP increase - I experimented with the restart - and when evaluating lic. expiration of my AP dropped the controller.

• New authentication active directory on wlc 2504

  Hello

  There is problem with very often a new authentication for servers active directory. Every time only if:

  -loose client wlan/wifi because of the wifi hole or low RSSI

  -output of build for a while customer

  -wlan loose customer due to problem with homelessness (slow, not perfect)

  There is possibility to keep authenticated users? I had hope that options: sleep customer, max session timeout, max idle timeout

  help, but they do not work for me :(

  My access point (2702) are all in a group flexconnect. WLC 2504 (8.1.102.0). My security in WLAN config is:

  Layer2: wpa + wpa2, PSK

  Layer 3: web policy, authentication with LDAP servers + asleep on client

  I always try to improve the radio covers n fast roaming (11 k, r, v) but if someone leaves the area wifi, to do authenticated which is a little annoying...

  Thanks for any advice or an index

  Peter

  You want people who re - attach to your network for to re-authenticate.  It's a good thing.  We do not want people using the old credentials, or expose you to a security breach.

  This behavior is by design - and good.

• a WLC 2504 does support mobility with WiSM1 on the 6500 Series group

  If a WLC 2504 supports the mobility with WiSM1 on the 6500 Series group.

  Software version: 7.3.101.0

  Model: WiSM1

  Yes and no.

  Yes, mobility is supported.

  No, because I don't personally recommend inter-controleur of roaming.  It is true when you are dealing with 4400/WISN-1.  This is even truer when you WLC running two (or more) different codes.

• WLC 2504 with AP 1121 g

  Hey there,

  I have a problem, maybe you can help me.

  I want to join the FOLD of the AIR-AP1121G-E-K9 to a WLC 2504 with software version 7.4.x.

  In the compatibility matrix, I saw that it is only possible if the WLC has 7.0.x software version.

  So my questions are:

  1. Why is it needable to upgrade the 7.0.x to 7.4.x WLC?

  2. is it possible to join the AP1121G a WLC 2504 with 7.4.x version?

  3. What is the difference between version 7.0.x and 7.4.x

  I hope you can help me

  Yes.  That is right.  You need to downgrade the firmware of your WLC to 7.0.X to allow the APs 1100.

  Make sure that you back up your configuration before the downgrading of your firmware.

• SG 300 and WLC 2504

  Someone in the community all managed to connect a controller wireless lan to a 300 SG? I know that the WLC 2504 needs to be connected to a switch L3, but also a gigabit ethernet port. I plan on upgrading the firmware of the SG300 to version 1.3.5.58. Since the 1st version seems to have some problems using L3 switching.

  Thank you

  -Bill

  The biggest drawback for most people is the VLAN tagging. The switch in many ways is like a switch in IOS, but it is not simply a switch of IOS.

  Just keep in mind that if you make a layer 3 VLAN (assigned IP address to the VLAN), if sure the default VLAN has first of all a static IP address then go to make interfaces VLAN additional.

  config t

  int vlan 1

  IP address 192.168.1.254/24 or anything else you want.

  Continue to add the IP address and VLAN

  config t

  database of VLAN

  VLAN 100

  int vlan 100

  IP address x.x.x.x /xx

  Then you can make the trunks, etc. for VLAN desired.

  config t

  int gi0/1

  switchport trunk allowed vlan add 100<- this="" will="" make="" the="" port="" vlan="" 1="" untagged,="" vlan="" 100="">

  Most people transitioning to this switch get caught up on these 2 things for some reason most any.

  If you need help to set up the switch, you can always call the HWC, they have 24 hour support (without contract) or you can always feel free to hit me up (free support too)

• The SSID on Cisco WLC support no.

  Hi all

  Can you please help me to provide details on the following Cisco wireless controller?

  1. no support SSID on Cisco WLC

  2. is it possible to limit the SSID on the access point (for example, I have 10 SSID configured on the controller, I want 10 first access points using SSID (SSID 1-5) and rest of the AP SSID 6-10)

  Thank you

  Jamal

  Hi Jamal,.

  Just to add to the great info of Robert (+ 5 points Robert)

  The feature you're looking for is called WLAN substitute in versions 4.x WLC.

  Allowing substitution WLAN

  By default, all defined WLAN transmission on the controller access points. However, you can use WLAN editable to select WLAN is transmitted and who are not on a per access point basis. For example, you can use WLAN to control override goes where in the guest WLAN network or you can use it to disable a specific WLAN in a certain area of the network.

  This doc.

  http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/wireless/controller/4.0/Configuration/Guide/c40wlan.html#wp1114777

  Once you create a new WLAN, WLAN > page edition for the new WLAN. In this page, you can set various parameters specific to this general policy, RADIUS servers, political security WLAN key, and 802.1 x settings.

  * Check Admin status under general strategies to activate the WLAN. If you want AP broadcast the SSID in beacon frames, check the SSID broadcast.

  Note: You can configure up to 16 WLAN on the controller. The Cisco WLAN Solution can control up to sixteen WLAN for Lightweight APs. Each WLAN has an ID separated from WLAN (1 to 16), a WLAN SSID (name of the WLAN) separate and can be assigned to single security policies. Lightweight APs broadcast all Cisco WIFI WLAN SSID Solution assets and apply the policies that you set for each WLAN.

  The good doc.

  http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/Tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_configuration_example09186a0080665d18.shtml#C3

  In versions 5.x, you will use AP groups, because in versions 5.x WLC, WLAN substitute has been replaced by the "Groups of AP" feature;

  Creation of groups access Point

  After all the access points have joined the controller, you can create up to 150 groups of access point and assign up to 16 local wireless networks in each group. Each access point announces that the WLAN enabled that belong to his group of access point. The access point no announcement not disabled WLAN in its access point group or WLAN that belong to another group.
