I have a cisco wlan controller (2100) running software 7.0.235.0. I have the internal private wlan running off of port 1 and that is working fine with an internal dhcp server.Is it possible to setup another ssid (guest) and have the interface directly linked to a static ip on the WAN and also use the built in cisco internal dhcp server?
View 4 RepliesA query here with regards to Wireless isolation between SSID and wireless isolation within SSID.If we have 2 SSID, eg. InternalSSID, GuestSSID on AP1.Both SSID are set to Enabled for isolation between SSID, and within SSID, that would mean all machines connected thro' this AP1, would be isolated from one another.
1) If there's 1 laptop that connects to another AP, lets call it AP2, (doesn't have isolation function) on ssid01. Would this laptop still be isolated from those that connects to the first AP?
2) If there are wired PCs connected to the router. And the 2 APs are connected to the same router. Would the machines connected thro' the AP1 on either InternalSSID, GuestSSID be able to access those wired PCs? (My assumption is yes.)
3) Is there a quick and efficient way to setup on WRVS4400N to isolate GuestSSID totally from InternalSSID, and wired PCs. InternalSSID and wired PCs should be allowed to 'see' one another.
The challenge here is that, the network points are all installed already. Both AP are connecting thro' 2 separate unmanaged switch together with a couple of other PCs. 1 Port on the unmanaged switch, each,connects to the router.
We created the management interface, an internal DHCP scope in same subnet, and Two SSID tied to the same management interface:
- when we connect to the first SSID we have and IP address
- but when we connect to the secone SSID: impossible to get an ip address - auth and association are OK
i have two 5508 ver 7.3.0, one is the primary and one is the guest controller. mobility is up and running. i have an exising guest ssid working with wpa2-psk and web authentication and its working fine but i require a second guest ssid that only uses a wpa2-psk for ipod/ipads as i cant use passive client on primary controller. i presently have the one vlan range and dhcp setup on the guest controller to give addressing to either ssid. i know you can have multiple ssid setup on the guest controller but in other sites i have only had one guest connection comming from the primary controller, just a primary controller on each sites was only creating one link to the same guest controler.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to create a Guest WLan on my 4402 WLC system and have found several confilcting documents explaining the procedure. During this process I have notices that although the current corp wireless works, there was never a virtual interface created for it. Instead it uses the same Wlan/Vlan as the ap manager and managemnt interfaces. Could this by why I cant seem to get the Guest access working? or is this not a problem after all since the wireless does work.

This is an evaluation POC lab to sell ISE and NCS to our management to make our life easier.The problem I have amoungst many is I can create a guest user directly on the ISE and the guest can login, the ISE monitor shows the guest authenticates but the clients webpage passes them back to the login page not onto the original client url. The web auth is pointed at the ISE/guestportal/portal.jsp page.If I point the web auth at the internal WLC page using a WLC local user account it works.If I set the guest access to pass through it works without issues getting dhcp and dns. On the ISE is there a policy needed to say if guests are web authenticated give them access? The need is for AD authenticated users to be able tocreate guest users. The AD authentication works for sponsorship and guest creation its just the guest access redirection I am having issues with.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have a building with 6 Cisco Airnet 1140 connected to a Cisco 2100 WLC, all tied into a nice Central Certificate server and a Win2008 NPS/Radius server on a Win2008 AD. Our trusted PC wireless access is fine, with domain laptops with certificates authenticating with DHCP all round the building. We use GP to apply settings to an AD integrated Proxy server for internet access.
The problem I now have is with guest access...
We are an education establishment, so students could turn up with anything from a laptop to an iPad to an Android phone, which immediately rules out using proxy PAC files to configure the proxy.
What I really want is a method of using the radius to verify the guest user against their existing AD user account, which I believe is possible. The one snag we have is in order to avoid the user having to configure the Internet proxy we would have to switch it to a transparent mode, which immediately restricts our ability to report on AD username, we would only have an IP address to report on, which is next to useless!
We've looked at a Gateway product (Astaro), which integrates the Filtering onto the Gateway, but the downside is that you have to use their APs, so we would be replicating existing work, whilst also managing two filters.
We’d like to extend our current Guest LAN from a 4400 WLC in our data center to a 2100 WLC located at a remote facility. However, we cannot get the foreign controller to pass traffic to the anchor controller – or so it seems. The catch is that we’re not actually trying to extend the SSID itself to provide wireless access, but instead flub it so that we can provide local wired access tunneled to the Guest LAN on the anchor WLC. I’m not entirely sure if this is possible, because I’ve read that before the EoIP tunnel will come up a guest client must associate to the foreign WLC.
We’ve followed the instructions we could find that go over setting up this type of scenario, but unfortunately they only cover setting up back-to-back 4400 controllers and as such, some functions described (notably being able to create a Guest LAN) are not possible on the 2100. We haven’t been able to find a clear and concise guide on the scenario we want to set up.
Here’s some detail:
Mobility group is up/up between both WLCs. Both WLCs are running 6.0.x code.
Anchor WLC – 3750G-24WS-S25 (a 4400 WLC w/ integrated 3750G-24)
Guest LAN WLAN “wired-guest” created; Ingress is “none” and Egress is our existing “dirtnet” – i.e. outside access. The “dirtnet” interface is *not* a Guest LAN interface. Mobility anchor is set as local.
Remote WLC – WLC2106
WLAN “wired-guest” created; Interface is “wired” w/ an IP address on the same subnet as the anchor “dirtnet” and associated with port 2. Mobility anchor is set to the anchor WLC and is up/up. I have a laptop connected to port 2 with a statically assigned IP address on the same subnet as “dirtnet.” I am able to ping the local port 2 address, but I can’t ping across the tunnel to the anchor WLC. I also cannot ping the anchor WLC "dirtnet" interface from the foreign WLC’s Ping tool.
how to setup a separate SSID for guests (without a password).
Basically, we have one SSID now called Mnet which has a WPA2 password. For guests coming in i want Mnet Guests where people can connect without needing a password. They should be able to use internet but not connect to LAN devices, how to accomplish this with this WAP321?
I am setting up a guest WLAN network on our existing 1242 AP's using a seperate VLAN. On most wireless devices which are on the company network/VLAN's, I have used WEP authentication with hex keys, and no broadcast. Obviously this cannot be the same for a guest internet connection.We want to have the VLAN/SSID in guest mode (which i have configured) for broadcasting, and then once someone selects the SSID on their laptop or smart phone, they are just prompted to authenticate with a standard alphanumeric password (example "guestwifi") instead of a 40 or 128 bit key.
I have searched all over and tried multiple things in the CLI on AP1, but can't seem to get anywhere.
We have a guest wireless network using 1130AG Access Points. Is it possible to allow devices on this network access to an Internal IP? I know that kind of defeats the purpose on the guest network, but we'd like to give access to internal email to these devices. Currently this does not work because you cannot loop back into the network to gain access (out the firewall and right back in the same port).

I am seeking to rate limit per user the bandwidth each client will get on the guest internet ssid. As you know this traffic is encapsulated in capwap between the AP and the controller so I cant use a standard ACL on the switch or router.
We are trying to keep the guest internet access usage in check on the T1 at any given site so the other ssid's & local lan traffic is not overly competing for the bandwidth.
I found the place to edit the default profiles in the controller but the documentation really isnt clear on best practices.
So I put it to you my fellow wireless engineers to suggest how you are implementing bandwidth management on your wireless guest internet.

Config:
Netgear ProSafe Gigabit Router is my DHCP Server -- The entire home net work is on the same subnet (192.168.15.xxx)
Linksys E4200 configured as an access point ONLY -- wired connection -- static IP assigned -- DHCP server turned off
Linksys WRT610N configured as an access point ONLY -- wired connection -- static IP assigned -- DHCP server turned off
3 -- 5 port gigabit switches
1 -- 8 port gigabit switch
No more than two switches between any two wired devices Both Linksys access points have the same SSID and WPA2 security phrase -- total of 4 radios Nonoverlapping channels are selected on both the 2.4Ghz and 5.0Ghz radio to minimize interference All computers are running Windows 7 Professional 64bit with all the latest updates Two iPhones and one iPad also access the network All LAN and WAN connectivity is working as designed?
Problem:
guest SSID is turned on
password is established
All devices will connect to the guest SSID and the E4200 is assigning an ip address to the device in the 192.168.33.xxx range which is what it's supposed to do.When I open a web browser, I am not automatically redirected to the Cisco Login Page. If I enter 192.168.33.1 as the URL, the login screen is presented. I enter the password I have created in the guest admin page on the wireless guest tab. I then see a blank page and a URL of 192.168.33.1/guestnetwork.asp. THIS IS WHERE I GET STUCK. THE ONLY WAY TO EVER SEE THE LOGIN PAGE AGAIN IS TO REBOOT THE E4200, otherwise you just get unable to connect messages when opening web browsers and the wireless status icon in the system tray shows a yellow exclamation mark.
I successfully connect to the guest SSID but I do not get access to the internet. When I type ipconfig, I see that the DNS is set to 192.168.33.1 which does not exist on my network. I assume there's some internal NAT magic that is supposed to happen in the E4200 to bridge me over to my 192.168.15.xxx network but it doesn't seem to be happening.At the beginning of the call I specifically asked them if the E4200 must be the DHCP server in order for the guest SSID feature to work and they said no. 1.5 hours later they had no answers so they told me that it wasn't working because the E4200 was not the DHCP server. The documentation says nothing about a DHCP requirement for guest AP service. Linksys support further could not answer what you would do if you needed more than one AP with guest service enabled.It seems like this is a firmware issue but it may be the guest SSID service requires the E4200 to also act as the DHCP server. Whether this is a bug or if the router/AP is working as designed?
We have a Cisco wireless infrastructure in place that includes a guest network with its own subnet that is a sub interface of the inside interface on our ASA 5520. There are no routes for it to be allowed access to the internal subnets. So it can only access the internet. This is primarily used by the public, but we have several non employee personnel that we only want to give internet access and force them to access the internal network through our clientless SSL vpn portal or through other internet facing internal resources such as webmail.I have done packet traces from within the ASA and the break appears to be there is no ACL allowing the traffic back into the network once the web resource replies to the request and the traffic is attempting to come back into the network from the web resource. Is that as clear as mud?
I know that this has to be a common problem and a way around this is to allow the guest wireless network access to the internal network but only for the select resources that they require. And that this can be done seemlessly by network specific routes and or alternate DNS entries, but I would like to keep this simple and just allow them to access the web resource, webmail and VPN, from the guest wireless using internet DNS servers without route trickery.
I want to know how to configure ACL to have access to dhcp and web only.My router does not support tag vlan.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe two controllers are having two internal DHCP servers with the same range in LAN (enx1,enx2). but i have specified which is primary DHCP server(enx3) in WLAN interface.
Now if a new user added into network, will he get IP address from primary dhcp(WLC) or AP connected WLC.
if two users connected to 2 diff AP's which are connected to 2 WLC will get the same IP address? since having same address pool configured.
I have Internal DHCP Server configured on the Cisco WLC 5508 and all is working fine. DHCP Range is 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.245. Now I created another SSID but I want clients connecting to this SSID get specific IP's or from a specific range. WLC has no option to bind a DHCP pool to a specific IP so what I did I checked the option to "Override DHCP" and added the IP of my firewall WLC is connected to and setup a DHCP Pool on that firewall as 192.168.1.89 to 192.168.1.94 (192.168.1.88/29).
Client can connect to the second SSID but can't grab and IP address, what am I missing ?
I am wondering if the folowing is a valid configuration:
WLC2504
AP2600
I need 3 SSID/VLAN, 1 for corporate devices, 1 for coporate smartphones, 1 for guest.
Port 1 on the 2504 should be used for management and corporate devices and connect to the corp network. Port 2 is for smartphones/guest and will be connected to a Cisco ASA 5515 that is connected to a second ISP.
Corp devices should get IP from an Windows DHCP. Smartphones/guest should get IP from the WLC. Is this possilbe? I read this in a document "To use the WLC as a dhcp, you need to enable DHCP proxy as it is required." Some how I am imagining that this will mess with the Windows DHCP. Is it better to use the ASA as DHCP for smartphones/guest?
I am hoping to get your feedback around the dhcp issues I am facing with Two Centrally Switched Wireless LANs. The setup is as follows:
- I have a WLC 5508 which has been configured with 4 SSIDs, out of which 2 are using Central Authentication and Switching. - I have an LWAP connected to the WLC in HREAP mode. - WLC is configured as the DHCP server for clients connecting to the SSID 'Guest'. For the rest, I am using external dhcp server. - Only one scope for Guest Interface is setup on the WLC.
Problems:
1. As far as I know, for WLC to act as internal dhcp server, it is mandatory to have the proxy enabled, but the Clients connecting to SSID 'Internet' are unable to get an ip address from the external dhcp server, if dhcp proxy is enabled on the WLC. If i disable the proxy, it all works fine.
2. DHCP does not release the ip addresses assigned to clients even after they are logged out.
3. If a machine which was earlier connected to 'Guest' SSID connects to the 'Internet' SSID, it requests the same ip it was assigned by the WLC which it was assigned under 'Guest', but gets tagged with the V LAN configured on the management interface.

A client wants us to use the internal DHCP server on a 5508 instead of Windows DHCP. They will have 15 APs initially and upto 25 later. The docs on the 7.2 WLC make it sound like this is discouraged: Internal DHCP Server.
The controllers contain an internal DHCP server. This server is typically used in branch offices that do not already have a DHCP server. The wireless network generally contains 10 access points or fewer, with the access points on the same IP subnet as the controller.
In this case, the APs will not be in the same subnet as the Managment Internet.Is it a mistake to use the internal DHCP with upto 25 APs (3 WLANs)?
I have a 5508 WLC controller at the HQ with the employee ssid ,the dhcp scope on the ssid is 10.120.0.0/16 network.
However,I want this same ssid to be brodcasted to a remote site using HREAP access point but with different dhcp scope 10.102.0.0/16.
I have tried creating another interface for the remote site with a different dhcp scope(10.102.0.0) but the controller wont allow me create another wlan with same ssid that existed before to apply the new interface created for.
