Cisco Wireless :: 6500 AP Gets An IP Address But Doesn't Register To Controller
Nov 20, 2012
I am trying to configure the Wism running on a 6500 switch.... I have configured the DHCP scope for the AP on the controller itself with the same subnet as of the management for the controller. The AP gets the IP but once it restarts it doesn't register to the controller, this is the log i get on the AP when consoled into it. [code]
I am developing CAP1602I & 2500 Controller.The CAP1602I-E-K9 can't register with the 2500 controller. [code] logging appears: capwap can't process uncryped data..I even didn't configure capwap on CAP1602.May I know if CAP1602 doesn't support LWAPP? Why LWAPP doesn't work?According to the logging, I also tried to configure the "Data Encryption" on 2500 controller ( according to 7.0.116.0 guide)
"Cisco 2500, WiSM2, WLC2—By default, these platforms do not contain DTLS. To turn on data DTLS, you must install a license. These platforms have a single image with data DTLS turned off. To use data DTLS you will need to have a license."Note If your controller does not have a data DTLS license and if the access point associated with the controller has DTLS enabled, the data path will be unencrypted. I should purchase a license? or, if I can configure the CAP1602I to don't encrypt data?
We have a 5508 controller that manages AP's at approximately 20 branches - each branch has their own subnet. We have a single branch (subnet) with new 2602 AP's that will not register with the controller. All communications to this subnet appear normal and there are no ACL's in place between the AP's and the controller. The AP's are able to resolve the controller IP address via DNS and begin the registration process but then timeout. We have successfully installed 2602 AP's at other branch locations and they register with no problems - this is only a problem at a single branch. I've attached some debug messages below for a single AP (this is a production environment so I parsed un-necessary info) and also included the console messages from a different AP (the console messages on the AP's are the same). There are currently 9 AP's at this location and none of them will register.
Debug Capwap Events:
*spamApTask0: Dec 11 14:39:32.904: 44:2b:03:9a:d1:10 Discovery Request from 10.29.9.190:44306 *spamApTask0: Dec 11 14:39:32.904: 44:2b:03:9a:d1:10 Join Priority Processing status = 0, Incoming Ap's Priority 1, MaxLrads = 300, joined Aps =272
AP with MAC 00:1e:13:10:40:59 (AIR-AP1231G-E-K9 ) is unknown.
I updated the AP to lightweighd firmware using upgrade tool. But upgrade tool generate the csv files empty so I had no idea about Hash key, so I resetted the APs to default values.
WLC still doesn't register them.
How Can I register the APs? The version of the WLC is 7.3.101.0
We currently have about 50 Cisco 1252 wireless access points running from a 4404 Wireless LAN controller. We need to order more APs, but of course the 1252s have been discontinued.Was assured by Cisco that the 1262 would work just fine with our WLC. I'm messing around with a trial 1262 and am running into problems.We hard-code the IP address, hostname, default gateway, and controller IP address in each of our access points. I did that with the new 1262 the same way I did with the 1252s:lwapp ap ip address lwapp ap ip default-gateway etc., etc.That didn't work. Then I tried doing the same thing using (not sure if this is the correct terminology...) the capwap commands.
The AP still doesn't show up on the WLC's GUI, though I can ping the AP from the WLC and I can ping the WLC from the AP.I also can't use a web browser to get into the access point's configuration tool. Do I understand correctly that the lightweight APs don't have the GUI?
I've just moved my desktop computer back to my parents house. there is an Internet connection in the house already. if I plug the cable into my laptop it works instantly. when I plug into the desktop there is nothing the green light turns on at the back of the tower but otherwise the computer doesn't register anything at all.
I have a home network consisting of a Linux machine running dhcpd server, connected to the X3000 router wireless, connected -in turn- to the RE1000 repeater, and -finally- a DHCP client machine.Since I run my own DHCP server, I have configured X3000 to be a Relay.I am getting very strange behaviour. Specifically, the DHCP client sents a DISCOVER packet, which arrives to the server (through the relay/router), the server then replies with an OFFER packet to the Relay, and then - bizarelly! - the relay/router forwards the OFFER reply NOT to the client, but back to the server!Needless to say, when this happens the client does not register with the network.I have captured the packets with wireshark running on the server machine, and you may find them here:url...Does not Linksys have professional online technical support?
I bought the modem from clearwire but after a period of time cancel internet because price is going up, i get to retain the modem, I live at campus now and i can get free internet by registin my physical adress and model. How can I identify the physical adress to register it in a new network to continue using the modem and pick up the signal with my modem..
i've upgraded our WLC 5508 from 7.0.220 to 7.2.115.1.For our guest WLAN we use web authentication with customized startpage, no login error page and no logout page. The customized login page is displayed correctly. After successful authentication the browser is forwarded to the default CISCO login page "login.html". No further autentication is possible, also no internet access.Reload the customized webauth bundle to the controller didn't change anything. Is there a change in the HTML/Java code of this controller version? I didn't find any hint in the release notes. Or do I need the newer web authentication bundle with version 1.0.2?
i have configured cisco LAP1240 in H-Reap Mode for multiple branch offices with Local switching and central authentication. one of the branch's AP does not join the controller in HQ while the others are all ok. i have firewall only in HQ, i did priming first for all APs like let them join the controller and configure controller IP in high availbility, and H-Reap config and assign SSID to map with the branch local vlan. when i faced this issue first time i brought back ap and configure a static IP address for AP than recheck them again but the problem still same. since i have only one firewall in the network and also other branches joined the controller through that firewall and no issues.
I just got a new WIsm2 to work and I'm missing the second controller on a 6500 the session slot 12 processor 1 comand brings me to the logon screen. but session slot 12 processor 2 ends with an Error, Am I right that the new wism2 has/is only one controller other than the 'old' wism which has processor 1 and 2 ?
Currently we're providing DHCP to wireless clients from a dhcp pool on a cisco 6500. Due to new requirements we need to move to windows 2008 dhcp and when I test this on an unused WLC (7.0.235.0) the client doesn't get an address.
When I do a packet capture on the client I see it requesting dhcp but not getting any response from the server. When I do a dhcp debug on the client I see the same (see attached file).
This seems to me to be a server issue but the same server is supplying addresses to wired clients.
We have two wism2 controllers. We have our access points split on the two controllers. I need to move all of the access points on controller 1 to controller 2 so we can perform maintenance on one if our 6500s. Is there and easy way to force all of the access points off the controller without changing any access point configs? I was hoping I could make a change in the controller in such a way that it would not accept any access points. If I had an ap manager interface I think I could do it but that is long gone now.
I have a 5508 controller, just upgraded from 6.0.182 to 7.0.98.0. Also LAG was switched off directly after upgrade.
Since the upgrade none of the 1142 LAPs are associating with the controller. I can see they are being issued IPs by the internal DHCP but putting a console cable and watching I am getting:
Not in Bound state. *May 4 11:41:17.759: %CAPWAP-3-ERRORLOG: Not sending discovery request AP does not have an Ip !! *May 4 11:41:17.759: %CAPWAP-5-DHCP_RENEW: Could not discover WLC using DHCP IP. Renewing DHCP IP.
One Ap prior to the upgrade was on a static IP and that connected through without any problem, (it was an 1131 though, but I dont think that is the issue...)
My WRVS4400N, V2.0.2.1CPU:STAR 9202.Doesn't allocate IP address on DHCP for anything but the Open SSID. All others, WEP, WPA, WPA2, nothing.I tried different clients, Intel Centrino wifi, Cisco, AG-CB21 same results.The config is std, I tried one VLAN for ALL SSID, I tried different VLANS, same.
In our test set up, we have two WLC 5508 Controllers connected via Checkpoint UTM-1 firewall Inside and DMZ Interfaces. Both the WLC controllers are connected to the firewall via Cisco 3750 switch. On the Local (Inside) Controller, guest SSID is enabled and attached to the wireless management Interface. On the remote anchor controller, guest SSID is enabled and attached to the Management Interface as well. The following configs are replicated on both the Controllers.
SSID Name - guest Interface - Management ( VLAN 10 on Local and VLAN 20 on remote) - Mobility Group: Same configs at both ends SSID Anchor : Anchor SSID on local and local SSID on Anchor. AP: CAPWAP 3502 Management Subnet
[code]....
Is there any thing missing in the wireless configs and or the firewall rules as i could not see DHCP request back from the Anchor Controller. Also, after DHCP is obtained, the web authentication request will be redirected to an Amigopod device for authentication. In this case is the redirect URL congiguration to be performed only on the Anchor Controller or is this to be replicated on both the Local and Anchor Controllers.
My Linksys WRT120N router doesn't accept my cellphone's MAC address... Phone's MAC address is AC:81:F3:08:13:F5 but upon adding the MAC address Internet Access Priority Category based on MAC address, I get an error "Assign MAC address is incorrect".
Region : Brazil Model : TL-WDR4300 Hardware Version : V1 Firmware Version : 3.13.23 Build 120810 Rel.44064n
First of all, by connecting the router to my desktop through wire, it doesn't generate any IP address, except for 169.254.x.x.. I already tried configuring the IP to static mode, but nothing changed, I can't even access the router's interface, however, if I try the same thing (connecting the router through wire) with my notebook and netbook, I get the IP without any problems.
The second problem is related to the wireless connection. When I try to connect my smartphone (Motorola XT860) I get the IP normally and supposedly internet connection, however the connection only lasts for a few seconds, after that I am incapable of accessing even the router's interface (again). If my smartphone stays connected to the router, nothing else works even for other connected devices, but when I disconnect my smartphone, all the other connections resume as if nothing happened. I already tried changing the Beacon Interval, the Address Lease Time, and so on, but nothing has worked.
Attempting to get EA6500 working with TWC Motorola Surfboard SBV5220 modem, which has been working just fine for the last 2 years with a Linksys E3000 router. DHCP client in the EA6500 either doesn't ask for an IP address from the cable modem or the modem just isn't supplying one. With the E3000, you could see the IP address assigned by the cable modem and the primary and secondary DNS server addresses provided, and if the DHCP request didn't work, these addresses would be all zeroes. But, with the EA6500, I can't find an equivalent screen that shows these assignments, or zeroes when the DHCP request fails.
I have a pair of OLD Cat6500's running CatOS: WS-C6509 Software, Version NmpSW: 7.6(16) Copyright (c) 1995-2005 by Cisco Systems NMP S/W compiled on Dec 22 2005, 16:37:19 System Bootstrap Version: 7.1(1) System Boot Image File is 'bootflash:cat6000-sup2k8.7-6-16.bin' System Configuration register is 0x2
I know these are no longer supported, but I have to ready them for migration. Recently a problem began with these switches. What happens is that when I telnet to them, I cannot authenitcate via TACACS. This works fine for all our other IOS equipment, just not for these 2 switches. The error is:" % Error in authentication" and then I get kicked back to the login prompt.
The odd thing is that when I connect to the switch via the console port, I can authenticate fine with TACACS. CMS> /c 14
I've tried to cascade two Linksys routers, but It hasn't worked for me. The first one (which has cable-modem connection) is the brand new E4200, and the second one is the old WRT54GCv3.[code] However, the WRT54GCv3 doesn't get the IP address from the E4200's DHCP. I've also tried to connect them directly (without the PLC), even specifing an static IP on the second router, but I got the same results.I've to state I don't want to change the first router IP/gateway parameters because I have a web and game home server working with an static IP and I don't want to put it offline temporarily because of readjusting network parameters.
We've got an application that is running on our LAN that is using IP addressing to connect to the server (they refused to use DNS).The server is now being moved to a VM which will be on a different subnet. The supplier is now concerned that there will be a big down time due to him having to reconfigure each device (about 100) with the new server IP. If the server was external I know I'd be able to do NAT on the FW to make this work but can it be done internally on my 6500s? I want to have the devices pointing at their hardcoded IP address off 1.1.1.10 and NAT the destination to the VMware servers IP 2.2.2.10? Is this possible using cisco NAT?
I would like to configure a Management ip address on 6500 by giving ip to the SVI. Following is the configuration done
1) int vlan X ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0 no shut
However i am not able to reach this Switch IP from other subnet's. for ex:- 192.168.1.0/24.What next configuration should be done, in order to make this work. I dnt want to use any routing protocol.
In an IPSec port to DUT scenario, with Mode-Config set so as the DUT sends the IP address to the port, I get to a situation in which the DUT continuously enter the "Need config/address" state for the port, even if the port sends its ACK packet to every set IP address from the DUT.
The DUT is a Cisco 6500 Version 12.2 (33) SXI3, having Mode-Configuration configured to provide clients with IP addresses from a local pool. I enabled the "debug crypto isakmp" on Cisco, and below is an extract form the log file:
5d23h: ISAKMP:(80653):Need config/address /* My comments here: This is the first Address configuration message from Cisco to port */ 5d23h: ISAKMP: set new node 1768971286 to CONF_ADDR 5d23h: ISAKMP: Sending private address: 94.94.0.164 5d23h: ISAKMP:(80653): initiating peer config to 171.159.1.113. ID = 1768971286 5d23h: ISAKMP:(80653): sending packet to 171.159.1.113 my_port 500 peer_port 500 (R) CONF_ADDR 5d23h: ISAKMP:(80653):Input = IKE_MESG_INTERNAL, IKE_PHASE1_COMPLETE 5d23h: ISAKMP:(80653):Old State = IKE_P1_COMPLETE New State = IKE_CONFIG_MODE_SET_SENT
above debug messages that Cisco produces I can not realize why Cisco resends the IP adderss configuration message for remote peer. Any other methods to use so as to get the reason behind this behavior? Or any explanation to the above behavior?
The customer has 4 6500 switches. 2 Physical locations, and 2 switches at each locations. The locations are connected via 1 200mpbs metro ethernet(layer 2). We ran into an issue during a DR exercise. We had created a VLAN for DR testing purposes, that did not have any SVI configured, but the VLAN did exist on one of the 6500s. When the customer restored a VM to the DR VLAN, we lost connectivity to the production server. After some troubleshooting, we found the cause to be the same mac address showing up, but in a different vlan. Once we removed the DR vlan from the 6500 all was well. It seems like switches are ignoring the VLAN in the mac address table, and forwarding to the incorrect ports. The switch is not reporting any mac flapping in the logs. No spanning tree topology changes are occurring. Code version is 12.2(33)SXJ2 on all switches.
We have a WCS 7.0.164.3 with 27 WLCs. We are now running a project where were creating new subnets on our locations - and because of this we have to change the controllers management ip-adresses.
I am able to change the ip-address of the management interface both through wcs and on the wlc, but the controllers ip-address (the one we see under Configure - controllers) is still the old one. This causes the wcs to loose connection to the wlc. I have to delete the controller, and then add it with the new IP. The APs are then removed from the maps, and I have to manually place them on the maps again - this is a lot of work with 700 APs.
Is there a way to change the controller IP in WCS?
we have 6500 cisco switch as a backbone switch in universty. When ı want to look mac addres table , it does no show all mac address.ı mean if ı type ;show mac address-table there are not all mac address.
I have an Issue.In my networks, 1 single user is facing Network Slowness issue. i needs to check to which port user is coneected in switch to CHeck whether that port has any errors.But problem is, i am providing support from remote location.And my concern LAN segment is Very big,I have only user Ip address details,when i ping the Ip address from Core switch it is pinging. but when i give show ip arp & give Ip address then its not learning and listing out the Mac address to trace down to the specific port.
I have 2 servers, one active, the other standby, both will be using the same IP. If the active fails then a re-patch for the standby to make this the active. I understand that i will need to clear the arp & maybe mac address table on the 6500 for the new active server to work, as the failed server will have its mac address on the 6500,.
is there a way around this so i dont have to clear the arp cache & clear the mac table? [code]
We are facing issue with mac address learnt from different port-channels, Connectivity is like 6500 as core running VSS and 4500 access switches are connected to Core and WLC is also connected to Core.WLC to 6500 PO 60 , 4500 to 6500 PO 32.
