Cisco Wireless :: 5508 WLC - Associate Client From AP If Idle For Certain Time
Sep 16, 2012
Is it possible to rename the default webauthentication URL from [URL] to something like [URL]. We are running on 7.0.98.0, is it possible to do http for web authentication and https for Mgmt access if we upgrade the controller software?
We configured our guest wireless with no layer 2 authetication so users can associate with an AP and get an ip adress but they can't go anywhere unless they have a valid username and password(web authentication) - does this affect the performance of an AP since there will be many people associated with each AP, is there any setting in the WLC to de associate a client from an AP if its idle for certain time.

I'm on WLC 5508 . It doesn't matter if passive client feature is turned on or turned off , when you try to increase "User Idle Timeout" you can see this message:
In our network, a lot of clients gets deauthenticated. I thought it would be useful to enable "Passive-client" feature, or increase "user idle timeout" , but how these works with each other?

I have a 5508 WLC licensed for 100 APs. I have 1 - 1042 LAP connected for testing. I have DHCP configured for the AP, and it gets an address of 192.168.254.100/24 - the controller's management interface is 192.168.254.99/24. I can see that the AP is getting an IP and I can ping it from the controller. However, I simply do not see the AP associating. I enabled capwap debiugging and watched the events, but I didn't see anything crazy that clued me in. What am I doing wrong?
The controller is v6.0.199.4
Every time I have set these up in the past they have been pretty straight forward. I haven't gotten too deep into the config on the WLC becuase I don't want to cause more issues.

I have upgraded my WLC 5508 from 7.0 to 7.4 and the AP 1310 no longer can associate to WLC.
Seems that the AP doesn't work with WLC ver 7.4
Except changing these APs to autonomous mode, any other alternatives?
Besides, if we change them to autonomous mode, can Prime Infrastructure manage/monitor these APs?

The behavior of some mobile devices ( as Iphone , Itouch, not Blackberry, not labtops ) with WL Controller (5508) is that, when the client doesn't use it, it disconnects after 480 sec.
The idle timeout configured is 900 sec.
Why the behavior is different in this type of devices? Increase the idle timeout is a solution?

We are using the cisco sa540 router and shrew VPN to connect to our buiness network, mostly to connect to the workstations with RDP. Now we wonder if it posible that the connection will disconnect automaticly after an idle time of for example 30 minutes. And if so, how can i configure it?

I have set up 2 RV110w firewall/vpn/routers at remote locations and an ipsec tunnel between them. Once the tunnel gets established everything works fine until it has been idle for some arbitrary amount of time. (Maybe a half hour or less.) at which point we lose server access and can no longer ping across the tunnel. To fix this I have had to dissconnect and reopen the tunnel again, I even went so far as to install an autopinger on the remote end to keep traffic on the tunnel which seems to work but is not going to be a viable long term solution.

I am looking for the way to define an idle timeout for specific flows on an ASA5580 by using Cisco security manager. For ex I needed to define a specific idle timeout for connections beetween specific devices (Devices in vlan1, Device2 in vlan2).To test it I did following changes by CLI and it works fine. access-list L1 extended permit ip <@IP1> <mask1> host <@IP2> class-map CM1 match access-list L1 policy-map PM1 class CM1 set connection timeout idle 02:00:00
I try do do the same configuration with CSM in order to be able to manage each changes only by using CSM.So I defined Access control list, Traffic flow and then I define timeout in CSM --> PIX/ASA/FWSM Platform --> Service Policy Rules --> IPS, QoS and Connections Rules -> connections settings -> Traffic flow idle time-out. The problem is that each time I deploy the configuration with CSM I loose the timeout config line which is the most important for my application..

If i set up a pptp vpn between a Cisco rv082 router and a microsoft client,Can i set the client idle timeout someway? or Have a default value pre- configured for this?Because this device support 5 users to connect at the same time. It would be best for me, if the device drop the client if it does not use the tunel.

I would like to set a time limit for how long a client can be continously connected to the WLAN that provides my guest internet access. The user name/password is hosted on my ACS and authentication is provided by my Cisco NAC. I am using 5508 controllers (7.02) and WCS.
Somewhere in this combination of stuff, there has to be a way to set a two hour time limit.

Recently i have setup a WLAN with inside and anchor 5508 controllers. Standard setup. However, one issue I have is I wish to extend the length of time between password changes for users connected in on the guest wlan. At the moment, 30 is max. I dont have an option on the controller to creat accounts for any longer than that. How to I extend it to 90 days or 120 days?

I have two number of WLC model 5508 running IOS version 7.0.98.0. And One WLC in DMZ with the same model and IOS version. AP model is 1141. The Two WLCs are integrated with ACS. I have a SSID named EMployee. The DHCP for the users are configured in a seperate DHCP server and i have mapped this DHCP server IP to the interaface Employee.And this interface is mapped to the SSID as well.. But my client is not receiving the DHCP IP. Attached are the debug logs from the client.

I am using 2 anchor controllers 5508 as DHCP server. Anchor controller A is primary and anchor controller B is secondary. From time to time, client will complain "duplicate IP address error" when they try to connect guest wireless.First question: both anchor controller should have a recorder of IP address which is assigned to each PC, right?Second question: is there any way this type of issue can be avoided?

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?

I have one 5508 with Product version 6.0.199.4 and about 7 Cisco 1140 APs.We have a next problems. Go out of the connection on the clients PC, while physically a wireless connection to the workstations is not broken, but access to network resources is lost and restored after some time (up to about one minute).The logs on the controller at the same time see the following message.

I've just installed a standard Cisco wireless install (5508, 3502i, local and flexconnect setups) all working swimmingly.
The customer has asked for a new WLAN for a particular group of staff that will route to a different gateway than the general wireless staff.
The 5508 is connected to a older Avaya L3 switch that is the customers core swtich, but it isn't capable of PBR so it routes on desitnation only and its default route is not where I need the new WLAN traffic to route to. An ASA will be connected to the Avaya switch (which is the alternate gateway I need to get the new WLAN users to). So my question is probably routing 101, but if the ASA interface, the Avaya swtich and the WLAN interface all reside in the same VLAN, can I give the wireless clients the ASA as their gateway via DHCP and successfully get their traffic to the ASA?

I have had several complaints from around the firm where by mobile devices are being bumped off the PSK secured network (All other SSID networks are operating A-OK). Both Android and iPhone devices are being affected, the device will just loop until it reconnects, sometimes up to 20 minutes of trying to establish a connection. It will eventually connect so the key is not the issue.I've attached a debug of a device which fails to connect and then shortly after is successful.

I have an environment of Cisco 5508 Wireless Controller and 1142N Access Points. I have a problem with the ratio of concentration of clients connecting to Access points in floors.
Recently I have been turning off 802.11a on the access points and I am seeing increase in client count in a few of acces points.What is the maximum client count supported by these access points and how do i ensure they are distributed evenly on access points?

Since two months they work full time with the new Dutch Electronic Patient Dossier.We installed 3 Cisco 5508 controllers, version 7.0.230.0 last year on a HP-switched network on a layer 2 mobility domain.Cisco 1041 AP are
The personnel works woth thin clients url... The one with the double antenna.This client has a Broadcom BCM943228HM4L 802.11 a.b.g.n (2x2) adapter.
On the client they have a connected RDP session to a server with the documents.Now they are walking from one patient to another patient. The problem they experience is a very late roaming. At the beginning of the corridor, the client will associate, but is going to roam at the end of the corridor. We installed 4 AP's on each corridor, so they signal is very well, maybe to well?
I disabled client loadbalancing and band select.The lowest data rates are also disabled. Mandatory begins at 12 Mbps. I can increase this to 18 Mbps.These clients work with PSK, with both methods (WPA-TKIP and WPA2-AES) enabled.We did this because of many old and new clients.
The customer tried to find out the problem with a smartphone, same issue. Very late roaming.I can upgrade the WLC to 7.0.240.0. The only problem I have is the WCS. When upgrading to 7.2 and higher I need to have NCS.

recently I installed WLC 5508 en the central office and installed a network mesh in a remote office; central and remote office is connected with serial link as WAN, and I have dhcp server in the remote office for give ip address to all users and devices in the remote office. Additional I have 5 LAP1552 (mesh) and 2 LAP1260 in the remote office, all clients that connect to LAP1260(this don't belong to the mesh) receive ip address from dhcp server, but neither client that try to connect to the mesh (LAP1552) receive ip address from dhcp server. I don't have if I doing some thing bad. The range IP that receive the all ap's belong to the network of devices and the range ip for the users belong to network of users.

I am having trouble with a newly configured install. Basically it seems that my centrally switched guest SSID is not functioning. As you change AP groups, which should change the interface associated with the SSID and also the dhcp client address, the client is retaining the original dhcp address from whichever AP group they first associated with.
I also have a locally switch WPA2 SSID at each location which is working fine. Clients are able to change dhcp address correctly as they move between AP groups. It just doesn't seem to be working on the guest network, which is odd because it was working earlier in the install. It has only started having issues yesterday afternoon.
The interface above is assigned to the guest SSID in one of the AP group. I assume this has something to do with it but I've been over my DHCP assignments on the core switch, local switch, controller, and dhcp server and can find no issue with the configuration..
I am not sure why as I am not using DOT1X at all. The guest is a pass-thru and the WPA2 network is just WPA + WPA2 with TKIP and AES. No DOT1X anywhere on the controller...

Background: Wireless credit card machines can't stay connected to the 5508 controller 7.0.116 / 1142 ap wireless system. MAC address of one of the wireless hosts is 00:12:0e:ec:ce:97. AP servicing them is d4:a0:2a:99:34:60. Hosts are able to connect to the network after a reboot and stay connected for random periods of time but then don't come back unless you manually reload them. I have 3 in total in the same room services by the same ap.
I have the output of debug client 00:12:0e:ec:ce:97. Output showed 802.1x 'timeoutEvt' Timer expired for station 00:12:0e:ec:ce:97 so I increased the value to 4000ms on the controller but am still having the issue.
Note that the output below is the state the client stays in after receiving the timeout (802.1x 'timeoutEvt') showing subsequent attampts. The only way to get them back on is a reload of the credit card machine.

I'm trying to change the DHCP Client Lease Time from 1440 minutes to 480 minutes. When I try to apply the new settings, I'm getting a message that says "Invalid Characters" and it won't stick. I've tried this in three different up-to-date browsers (ie10, Chrome and Firefox). Also, I'm connecting locally through LAN and I have the latest EA6500 Firmware: 2.1.39.145204

I have been noticing in my trap logs that there are an excessive amount of Client Association/Authentication Failures. I cannot figure out why. I have a Cisco 5508 WLC with 81 AP's (1131ag, 1142abgn, 1262N) models. The wireless devices are on a Windows Domain and use 802.1x EAP authentication, authenticating the user and computer info with a RADIUS Server. I look at the logs and all it can tell me is Reason:Unspecified ReasonCode:1. I read that the Reason Code is due to "Client associated but no longer authorized" but to be honest I am not sure what that means.

We use WLC 5508 with 7.4. We tried to set max allowed clients per AP radio to 30 through GUI. We have APs with 80 clients associeted though.
When entering config wlan max-associated-clients max-clients wlan-id we got
"WLAN/Guest-Lan/remote-lan is enabled. disable to configure max associated clients."
GUI doesn't show that message, should it? In GUI, Is it necesary to disable WLAN before too?

Installed a new 5508 WLC last week, and finished bringing 68 new 3602i access points online in our College Dorms. We are seeing a lot of "Client De-authenticated" errors "Reason: Unspecified Reason: Code 1. Years ago I asked about error code 1. The reply from Cisco was: "The programers put the code in. It basically means we don't know what the problem is."Got a call from one of the dorms stating that students were getting knocked off the network while going to sites. If a student is wired, network is solid.Walked the dorm in question and was getting full bars of signals at all times, and was able to stream a movie from my Ultraviolet account without any break or slowdown as I moved from access point to access point. So.. my device, an iPad, was fully mobile and did not experience any disconnects.Did observe one student using a MacBook Pro. This student was constantly loosing connection to the access point. Checked the controller for the MAC of the student's computer. I did find deauthentication errors. BUT... this student's error was the computer was receiving an IP address from the DHCP that was already in use. At the computer the error message was a timeout issue.I am just learning the ropes on the 5508. Have used 3 4404s for the past six years.

User is connecting to 5508, running 7.0.116.0. Previously worked on another AP. TV (client) is set to use dhcp. As other posts have mentioned, "DHCP Addr. Assignment" checkbox is not checked for this wlan, but I also switched it to Required for this wlan but it did not make any difference. Seems to be a problem with just this client as many other clients are on this AP with no problems.
Users have to register their MAC to get on our wireless system, but there is no encyption or security enabled once the device has been registered.

I have setup the WLC to authenticate to a MS Server2008 NPS for a WPA2/AES SSID. The connection is successful, but client authentication fails for wrong EAP-type. I believe this indicates a Windows7 client issue. What is the required client setup to satisfy the MS NPS?

I've got a setup like this:
WLC 5508 v7.0.98
6-7 Autonomous upgraded to lightweight APs - 2 * 1231G while the rest are 1242AG
3 dynamic interfaces, 2 to Corp (diff VLANs) and 1 to Guest
4 WLANs binded to different interfaces
2 to the Corp interface Vlan X
1 to Guest
1 to Corp Vlan Y
DHCP for Corp is provided by their own Win DHCP server while controller is the DHCP server for Guest. Lease time is 1 day.
My problem now is, some clients, at random, loses their IP after being connected to the network. They get a 169.254.x.x. They connect to the Corp network OK, no browsing issues but after a while, they lose their IP address.
They can either wait for a while before getting an IP back or just simple renew their IP on their machine.
I've tried increasing the threshold values in the Local EAP to double its default values and also setting the WLAN session time out values to infinite. However, these 2 didn't work. I'm still having clients that occasionally lose their IPs at random.
I've also noted that this affects clients with WZC wireless drivers and not others e.g. Intel Proset.
