Cisco Wireless :: 5508 - AP's In HREAP Mode Disassociate From Controller

May 22, 2013

I have been having an issue with random AP3602I's in HREAP mode disassociating from the 5508 controller.  These AP's are in remote offices with 70Mb WAN back to the controller.  Randomly one or two AP's disassociate from the controller and I have to bounce the switchport to bring them back online.  The WLC is running 7.2.  Again this only occurs to one or two AP's not all of the AP's.

Cisco Wireless :: 4404 Guest Anchor Controller With 5508 Foreign Controller?

Aug 12, 2012

I know that the 3600 series APs are not supported on the 4404 WLC.  However, would the following scenario be supported? I would like to use the 4404 (software rel. 7.0) as a guest anchor with a 5508 (software release 7.2) as the foreign controller supporting series 3600 APs.  I ask because the APs do not need to join the guest anchor.

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 / AP On Different Vlan Than Controller?

Sep 30, 2011

I have a 5508 controller at our headquarters and am installing some 3502 AP's at a remote branch.  Unfortunatly, the remote branch has a different Vlan setup for some reason and the vlan that is used for the WLC (90) is designated for telephony at this branch.  Can I put the AP's on a different VLAN (10) without having any issues?  I will still use DHCP option 43 to point them back to the controller. Below are the configs for the WLC interfaces and what I am proposing for the AP interfaces:
 
WLC Config
 
interface GigabitEthernet1/1/38
description WLC01
switchport
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport trunk native vlan 90
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,10,50,90,91,390,410-413,610-613,800,810,811
switchport mode trunk

Cisco Wireless :: WLC 5508 / Rejoin To Different Controller

Feb 10, 2013

I use WLC 5508 (ver 7.0.116.0) with aironet 1140. I need to connect my APs to different controller .After log in via ssh to AP i am trying to do:
 
capwap ap controller ip add x.x.x.x
reset
 
But after reload, AP is still joined to the old WLC. So another idea was to log to that WLC and put:
 
config ap primary-base WLC2 AP_NAME x.x.x.x
 
and after that:
 
config ap reset AP_NAME
 
But still nothing, it's joined to another controller although "show ap client config" shows that primary-base switch is x.x.x.x ?How can i force it to join to other controller?

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 Anchor Controller In DMZ

Nov 26, 2012

We have a WLC (5508) in our main office in Brisbane that is hosting two WLANs. One provides wireless access to our internal network and the second provides wireless guest access. The guest WLAN is anchored to a controller sitting in the DMZ at our Data Centre.
 
In the DMZ the anchor controller has a management interface and an interface in the DMZ for the wireless guest access. I am using the DHCP server on the anchor DMZ to provide IPs etc to wireless guest clients. The default gateway is 10.8.144.1 which is a VIP or a pair of firewalls.
 
Initially everything works fine. Guests connect to the guest network, have to authenticate via a web portal (Cisco ISE server) and then can go on an use the internet. Works perfectly until the firewalls fail over and the secondary firewall takes over the VIP address. All access to the internet is lost at that point. If I try to disconnect and then reconnect a wireless client it connects, as in it will get an IP address, but DNS resolution stops and I do not get redirected to the web auth portal. If the firewalls are failed back to the primary then everything works again, no issues. However, if I reboot the WLC while the secondary firewall has the VIP IP everything will work fine as it did on the primary. If the firewalls now fail over to the primary again everything goes to ****. Until either the firewalls are failed back or the anchor WLC is rebooted.
 
Initially I thought this was an issue on the firewall, but this doesn't appear to be the case. When the firewall fails over it sends out a gratuitous ARP advising of the change in MAC address for the 10.8.144.1 IP address. The WLC seems to update its ARP table because if I run the command "show arp switch" it has the 10.8.144.1 IP address with the MAC address of the active firewall. From the client perspective I have run a wireshark and captured packets on the wireless interface when trying to connect. The laptop is continuously send ARP requests for 10.8.144.1 but gets not reply. Without this the client cannot send an ethernet frame to the gateway and hence get to the DNS server and WEB portal. Internet access breaks. Doing a TCP dump on the active firewall shows it receiving and then sending a reply to the ARP request. It just never gets to the wireless client. Debugging ARP packets on the anchor WLC seems to indicate that the controller is receiving the ARP replies from the firewall. So I'm at a loss as to why things should break when the firewalls fail over.
 
I have a 3750 switch in the DMZ with SVI of 10.8.144.4. I thought I could get a work around where I would make this the default gateway. The theory being that this interface MAC address would never change. However I was wrong. Even with this IP set as the gateway address for the wireless clients I see the exact same bahaviour when the firewalls fail over. I can't explain it other than to say that the gratuitous ARP sent by the firewalls seems to kill the ability of ARP replies to be sent back to the wireless client.

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 - VPN / GRE Don't Show Up In Controller

Mar 6, 2012

Just replaced a 2106(ver 5.1) with a 5508 (ver.7.2)...Everything was OK.. AP's got on 5508 and we shut the 2106. (AP's are on L2 with controller)During some investigation of why new LAP's from a location via VPN/GRE don't show up in controller, i type the following command on 5508: test ap pmtu enable all....All AP's on 5508 is now in Not Joined state..Have powered up the old 2106 and put AP's on that .. This is OK  ....Have rebooted/downgraded/upgraded the 5508 controller but with same result.....No AP's can join this controller (exept from a oeap600)

Cisco :: Getting 5508 Wireless Controller Configuration

Sep 15, 2011

So we have a Cisco 5508 controller that is managing 15 AP's in one of our buildings.I am running 2 wlans, one is internal access via (wpa) radius, peap and domain login...that works well now
 
The other is a guest lan, that is only allowed to surf the web.
 
The question from our security group, is there a way to restrict wireless access to ONLY a corporate approved list of devices.
 
As it stands right now, we only support Blackberry's as our mobility device. All local data is encrypted. The issue here is our testing shows that with an Iphone (not approved) it is very easy to connect to the WPA network if a user knows how to enter in their domain credentials. From there they can browse our internal web servers and download corporate data to a non approved, non encrypted device such as the iphone.

Cisco Wireless :: Bridge Mode Support On AP1041N?

Mar 6, 2012

I'm trying to get confirmation on whether you can have workgroup bridge mode on the 1040 series model.
 
The 1041N has the same IOS as the 1141/1241 and it has the settings are there, but I read somewhere on the cisco site that workgroup bridge is only supported on 1100 and 1200 series, is this correct or old information?
 
Scenario is: I have an existing stand alone 1041N AP, on the other side of the building I have a network LAN switch with a couple of PCs, instead of running cables I would like to add an AP as a bridge to link that switch and PCs to the network that the AP is plugged in to. I believe this is called Workgroup Bridge Mode. In fact there already is a cheap non-cisco wireless device doing this but it is unreliable.
 
I just placed an order for Two 1041N APs, do I need to change the order to Two 1141N instead?
 
Also even if the 1041N does not support workgroup bridge mode, can it still act as the ROOT Bridge and have 2 1141N APs configured in bridge mode connected to the 1041N?

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 - LAP And Mesh AP With Controller Concepts

Jan 29, 2013

I have one controller 5508 that will hold 50 LAP 1262 and another Controller that will hold another 50 outdoor mesh access point 1552. Both controllers (not redundant) are at the HQ while the access points are distributed between HQ and 3 branches.
 
The requirements is to have the SAME 4 SSIDs on MESH and LAP each have a security type (, wep,wpa,dot1x...) on HQ and Branches. Now, in the HQ I don't think I will face a problem since the WLCs is on the same LAN, so 5 interface v lans will be configured one for the WLCs and access point and another 4 interface v lans for the 4 SSIDs.
 
Now, for the remote sites I need to create another vlan on the switch with DHCP and option 43 ..... for the access point to register with the controller.
 
But here, do I have to create another 4 interface v lans (4 different sub nets) that should be bidden to the SSID as in the HQ?

Or the Access point will encapsulate all the traffic including the client traffic? Note that I have outdoor mesh access point and Lightweight access point and the BW link between the HQ and branch is 100M.
 
Also Can I have roaming between the same SSID that broadcasted on MESH and LAP knowing that each have different controller.

Cisco Wireless :: Redundacy - Controller 5508 Get Same Ip Addresses

May 8, 2013

[URL] I have one Controller 5508 is my Central Office and I have some Ap's working in local mode in my Central Office, additional I have more Ap's in a remote Office they're are working as H-REAP and I can handles across my WLC. Now my enterprise decided bouth another WLC and wants to deploy a active-passive scenario. This new Controller should manages all the AP's when the central WLC fails...

My questions are... I need to have the same ip addressing on both sites? or they can be different. I nedd to configure some on my Ap's that are working as local mode, for allow the secondary WLC manage them when mi central WLC fails

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 APs Joining Wrong Controller

Nov 5, 2012

We have 3 5508 WLCs  (A, B, & C) and several LAPs (1140, 3500, 3600). The APs learn the controllers IP addresses through DHCP Option 43.  When we setup a new site we put the IP address of the controller we want the AP to join first.  Lately, I've noticed that regardless of which WLC IP I put first when I setup Option 43 the LAPs are always joining a particular controller.

Cisco Wireless :: Using LWAP With A 5508 Controller After AP Upgrade?

Aug 18, 2011

I have an AIR-AP1242AG-E-K9 which had c1240-k9w8-mx.124-21a.JA loaded, I followed the link below and upgraded with Cisco’s upgrade tool to c1240-rcvk9w8-mx with no problems at all, after the upgrade I could then see the LWAP on the 4402 controller and had it working a treat.Now the problems begin, I brought it into the office where we have 5508 controllers, plug in the LWAP into our management switch and boot it up I get an IP assigned from the DHCP server and the AP goes into discovery mode but never finds the controller.I have logged the boot process but this does not give much away, our other 1100 series AP’s boot fine,

[URL]
 
Console Boot Log.
Xmodem file system is available.
 flashfs[0]: 9 files, 3 directories
 flashfs[0]: 0 orphaned files, 0 orphaned directories
 flashfs[0]: Total bytes: 15998976

[code]....
 
And that is where she sits and does nothing more, I have noticed the DNS problems but the other 1100 series LWAP’s boot up after show that same issue.

Cisco Wireless :: Client Roaming With 5508 Controller

May 27, 2013

I am having some troubles with client roaming on a 5508 controller running firmware 7.3.101.0. As soon as a client roams outside the range of an AP they lose data flow and do not seem to transition to another AP for about 1 minute.This is a small network with 6 x AIRCAP3502E-N-K9 AP's (running in H-REAP mode) on the same floor and clients are a mix of HP notebooks, Mac Books, iMacs, iPads and iPhones. There are several seperate SSID's setup and the problem occurs on all. All are WPA2/AES with either a PSK or 802.1X. Both 2.4GHz and 5GHz radios are enabled with auto power and channel selection.
 
I have tried changing the roaming settings from default and also playing with the AP power settings to no avail.Is this normal behaviour or is there something I can do to improve the reconnection speed?

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 Controller SNMP Management

Jun 10, 2013

We faced one recent issue with WLC configuration behavior and explaining our observation and workaround we did.Requirement is to manage the WLC (5508 with 7.4 code) using two SNMP managers in different locations. Also these two Servers should use the same community string to manage WLC. 

We were able to configure the SNMP community string for one server IP (to allow access) through GUIWhile trying to add another Server – IP with same community string – it didn’t allow As per the configuration guide, Controller can use only one IP address range to manage SNMP community. So we cannot configure the same community string to allow only two different server IP addresses [code] We currently configured the major subnet ( 10.x / 8 - two match both server addresses) and it works fineAlso when we tried  0.0.0.0 / 0.0.0.0 , it didn’t work (SNMP was failing)But this creates a security issue wherein anybody can poll the WLC.
