Cisco Wireless :: Initial Configuration On WLC 2504 And AP 1142n?
Mar 3, 2013
I will now install a Cisco WLC 2504 and 18 AP´s ( 1142n).
Client has a Cisco infrastruture with Cisco Switch´s 3750x and others.
We expected to have :
1. Managment Vlan to add WLC 2504 and the AP´s ( DHCP server should be reached on this Vlan)
2. Configure a trunk in the switch port where the WLC will connect, allowing vlan´s that we choose to reach.
3. configure WLC ( ssid´s, Vlan´s, interfaces).
4. Configure AP´s.
Is there any basic setup that i missed for things to run ?
Normally I create DHCP reservations for AP`S and for Clients in diferent Vlan´s:
Mgmt Vlan 100: 192.168.0.xx
AP´s vlan 101: 192.168.1.xx
Clients Vlan 102: 192.168.2.xx
All this ones should be created as interfaces on WLC?

I have a question with the CAPWAP command. Typically, when I get 1142N from our provider, they have no configuration on them and all I need to do is enter 4 lines of code all starting with CAPWAP and then I have them join the controller and finish the config. This one I just received looks like it has an IOS image or configuration on it. (You can do a show run). I can: show CAPWAP - but I can not enter any CAPWAP commands. They are invalid input detected at marker. How to I get to the point where I can enter my CAPWAP commands ??

How can I have access to the cisco "AP#" prompt? When I try to acees the AP through hyperterminal, it gives me the attached messages. The message keeps looping and not letting me access the AP# command prompt to assign an IP address so that I can control it in mode HTTP.

On a recommendation from a network engineer, I got a used Cisco 891. Having worked with small business routers most of my working life, I thought this should not be a problem. However, I had no clue these things used a console and command line to initialize. I have the console cable, am able to console into the device, but am haphazardly issuing command lines straight out of the PDF manual but cannot get Cisco CP to discover the device.
From what I can tell, I am stuck at the point where the manual tells me to enable http server. I ran the command lines several times, executed write mem where available, but when I run the show services command, http is not enabled.
And if you do refere to command lines, I was reading some other forums and they were speaking of "run this command, run that command" but I could not make out the correct syntax, in what mode, whether it be config or config t, etc. So I might need a wee bit of handholding.
I'm hoping that once I can get Cisco CP or CPE to discover the device, I can make my way through the GUI to configure since those usually do make sense to me. As of now, I'm in the thick of it ...

I'm trying to set up a new ASA 5510. I have a pretty simple set up with one /24 on the inside NATed to a DHCP address on the outside. Everything on the inside works and I can ping the outside interface from external devices. No matter what I do I can't get anything internal to route across the border to the outside and back. To try and eliminate ACL issues as a possibility I added permit any any rules to the incoming access lists on the inside and outside interfaces. Here's the sh run.

ASA Version 8.4(3)

I am interested in learning and setting up VPN IPSec with Cisco ASA 5505. I've managed to successfully setup VPN andcan connect to it from outside and browse securely to the outside/internet via tunnel. However, once I am connected to VPN, I cannot access any of my internal hosts/servers via VPN client. I am wondering it its a missing ACL/NAT...ASA Version 8.2(5)

Trying to get this linksys router working on my network. It is a wrt54gs. The machine that i'm configuring it with is running a 64-bit version of windows 7. I run the disc and it seems as if no matter what i try it will not connect to the internet. Can plug modem directly to pc and connect no problem. Can connect to router no problem. But cannot connect to the internet through the router.I made sure that ip addresses are assigned dynamically through dhcp and cloned the mac address of the pc i'm using to do the initial setup.

We received an ASA5520-K8 through Cisco's Loan program so we could demo it as a replacement for our aging Cisco 3005 VPN appliances. Given that we are a non Cisco shop (except for specific appliances like concentrators and wireless access points), I don't have a great deal of experience with Cisco gear.I started to set to setup the appliance this morning but immediately ran into issues. The 5520 doesnt seem to be acting as a DHCP server, and worse yet, I can't access the unit even if I hard code the IP on the PC being used for configuration. I have to say that I feel kinda stupid having to post this, since I actually followed the documentation avaiable for this menial task and I fully expect the problem to be a simple one. Namely, I am using two specific sources of info for connections.

I am slowly working my way though the setup and configuration of our new 4900m switch. The switch will have a pretty basic operational configuration. We are simply going to network 3 servers together through the swtich. Anyhow, I have been fallowing the guide at this site: [URL]
Basically the switch is brand new and I just setup things such as the clock, the banner, and the hostname. Anyhow, at various points in the guide such as the configuration of the telnet password and especially the interface gigabitethernet I get the "invalid input detected at '^' marker". I also did a show interfaces and noticed there was not any gigabitethernet interfaces but there was a
"FastEthernet1 is down, line protocol is down Hardware is Fast Ethernet for out of band management, address i"
Anyhow, my thinking is continuing on with the guide and at least try to setup the interface for the management port so I can then use the cisco network assistant gui to then configure the rest of the switch.

I am currently experiencing an issue with a WLC that I am trying to connect 3 new Access Points to of the type AIR-LAP1142N-E-K9 running Cisco IOS Software, C1140 Software (C1140-RCVK9W8-M), Version 15.2(2)JA
I had the controller on firmware 7.0.220.0 and just upgraded to 7.3.101.0 in the hopes to solve my issue. The already connect APs running 12.4 was upgraded without any issues (apart from one - I'll get to that one) and it is now running as before. But the issue with the 3 new APs still persists. I have supplied a screenshot of the AP Join page.
Another issue that arose from the said upgrade was that a previously shutdown AP (of the same type and software version as the ones that upgraded perfectly) got turned on after the WLC firmware upgrade and is now not able to join the controller.

I am actually working in configuring a wireless controller 2504 integrated a windows 2008 server as radius server for authenticating the network users registered in a windows active directory database. The Radius server is a Windows 2008 Server with the rol of Network Policy Server.
I have been following a pair of documents in Internet, but it doesn't work yet.
Which authentication method should i use?...the Windows 2008 NPS doesn't work wtih LEAP, should i use PEAP or there is an another recomendation to authenticate the windows active directory users?
configuration tested working between a cisco wireless controller and Windows 2008 NPS as Radius Server for authenticating the windows network users.

I've got a question concerning the configuration of multiple AP manager interfaces on -for example- a cisco WLC 2504. I've read the configuration guide but I'm not sure whether this is the way the protocol works. Say I want to distribute AP's (and traffic) across various AP Manager interfaces on the WLC. I would configure the following:
Create one management interface (which will automatically also be an AP-Manager interface)Configure 1 (or more) Seperate ap-manager interfaces, assign them to a port number, and select "Enable dynamic AP Management". VLAN ID's will be the same.Create a WLAN and configure it's interface to "management" Is it correct if I state that the LWAPP protocol takes care of the discovery from the Access Point and sends information about the available AP-manager interfaces back to the AP and the AP knows which ap-manager interfaces are available, connecting to the least loaded one?

My client would like to have a wireless deployment between several differented offices in the city. There is connectivity between the different sites...but my main issue is, is this option really feasible. I was thinking of a centralized WLC like the 2504 coz of price + 36 APs, 2 at each site. The main worry is the network setup considering the fact that the APs have to communicate with the WLC so unpredictable network issues i believe will have a very huge impact.

I've read some conflicting things on the new 2504 WLC's. Some things indicate all 4 ports are fully useable, while others indicate perhaps only 1 or 2. I think I've read in product documentation that it support a max of two ap-manager interfaces. Does, for sure, all 4 ports are useable? I'm thinking of the following configuration:
Port 1: management interface and first ap-manager interface
Port 2: second ap-manager interface
Port 3: first dynamic/client interface
Port 4: second dynamic/client interface
I'm planning on deploying my ap's in h-reap mode with a max of 25 ap's per 2504. Since I'm using h-reap, bandwidth shouldn't be much of an issue so I'm also considering trimming it down to using just two physical ports as follows so I can take up fewer gig switchports which are scarce at many of my locations:
Port 1: management interface and first ap-manager interface
Port 2: first and second dynamic/client interface
I've always deployed 4400's and 5508's with LAG so I haven't had to think about this much until now.

i must configure a secured wireless network with access restriction based on SSID. the equipements are : cisco wlc 2504 (soft 7.3) cisco secure acs aplliance 1121 (soft 5.4) . the users that will connect to the network are regrouped by identity groups, each identity group having it's own SSID. Clearly each group of users must access only one SSID. i followed the procedure below to configure it:
-- creating user identity groups;
-- creating users and assigning them to the groups;
--- creating authorization profiles for each SSID under policy element/ authorization and permission/network access/authorization profiles and putting the Airespace-Wlan-Id(the SSID number) in the radius tab.
--- assigning the authorization profiles to the identity groups under access policies.
after all these config the users can access the network using there userid/password configured. But the problem is Every user can access every SSID, seems like the restriction is so not very well configured.
i found some documentation on this kind of config but the version of ACS used seems older than the one that i use, so menu are very different.

I've installed our previous WISMs and other WISM2s previously and never had a problem.
6500 running SXJ2. WISM2 running 7.3.101.0 (which is what the rest of our WISM2s are on)
Insert WISM and go through initial setup. Run a show wism status on the 6500, and show sysinfo on the WISM. All looks good. Service port and management vlans are up. From the 6500 I can ping the service port IP, but not the management IP. From the WISM I can't ping the managment default gw but I can the service port. Unable to get anything back from the GUI..not surprising as not even ping works.
Now, as I said I've done it this way many times before...in fact I'm following my documentation from the last successful implementation and even adding in Cisco docs.

I have run into a major issue with an autonomous Cisco 1142AP. We were in the midst of a firmware upgrade when something went wrong and caused the AP to reboot in an error mode. Basically the unit was flashing Blue, amber, red. We unmounted the unit from the wall, connected to the console, and it would now only flash red over and over. We pulled out the cisco guides and performed a factory reset on the unit. This still does not work. and the contents of our flash directory is empty. All we get is a ROMMON AP prompt on the unit. If I issue a set command, I can see the default settings for IP, netmask, etc.
I cannot access the unit via the network, even after setting IP info and matching it up to my laptop. Since I have no network connectivity, I can't TFTP a new IOS file to the unit. I am stumped. How to get the config as if it was out of the box, or an alternate way to TFTP to the unit? [code]Notice the lines in red, I must have typed someting incorrectly.Now once the unit boots after being reset, I cannot even type in the CLI. Someting majorly screwed up here. Can the bootstrap be reinitialized?

Now, with all the unified communications, voice, video and data are in the same device, and I try to give priority to voice and some applications, but in the WLC I can not find the way to mark all that kind of packets.
Is it possible to do that? like in a LAN making the marking as voice, signaling and any kind of application? as I marked in all the LAN.
the equipment:
WLC 5508 v7.0.116
AP 1142N

Need to configure Cisco 1142 N access Point togetherwith the Cisco Switch . I have a POE Switch 4510 and Cisco 1142 N Cisco AP . I have one management vlan 5 & User VLAN for WIFI VLAN 10 . The problem is when i make the POE port which is connected to the AP as trunk port means : [code]I am not able to ping the management IP allotted from VLAN 5 . However when i make it as access i am able to ping the managament IP . But for both the VLANs to work it should be in trunk mode & in cisco i can either assign the port as access or trunk .Post this i would configure the 1142 N with Cisco SG300-10P POE Switch . I guess if issue with my 4510 gets resolved the same way i can configure SG300-10P as well .

I just purchased an Aironet 1142n and need to configure/set it on one subnet in our WAN and ship it to another subnet on the WAN.
I have not been able to access the unit using a network cable from a pc direct connected to the Aironet. The pc's ip address is set to 10.0.0.2 I can not get to the access point thru the web interface using 10.0.0.1.
When I attempted to access it using a Hyper terminal connected to serial port and console port it loaded a list of software and updates and then reported that it shut down and I could not do any thing with it.
What must I do to be able to configuer a static IP and assign it an SSID and Security settings? How can I access the web interface? I have reset it by uplugging the power cord and holding down the Mode button while I plugged back in the power cord and holding it until the light turned amber/orange. Currently the light is solid green with the ethernet port direct connected to the nic card on a desktop.

I have two SSID's configured and I want them both on G and N but it looks like the speed is some way limited to 54mbps. I guess the encryption is not the problem as it's ciphers aes-ccm which support higher N-speeds.
my running config attached, that should be lovely as 54mpbs is too slow

I am currently switching out our Cisco 1130 APs and Cisco Small Bussiness APs for Cisco 1142Ns (I will NOT be using a WLC),
I have setup the AP, and read about some issues with Multicast and Apple Bon. Services.
I ran the "no ip igmp snooping" command and it allowed be to access our AirPlay Devices (Apple TV, AirPort Express, Etc), however our 2 AirPrint devices (Xerox 6125N, & Canon IR3220 via AirPrint Activator) are not showing up at all when connected to the 1142 (they work everywhere else).
Everything is on the same subnet, and 1142 is connected to the same switch has the airprint devices, and one Apple TV.
Both our 3500 Series switches are connected via fiber, AP and AirPrint/AirPlay devices are in the same VLAN.

My co-workers and I have been trying to diagnose a problem that recently started occuring on our AP1141N and AP1142N units. I have found a handful of posts that talk about this issue, but none with a solid solution. It seems that as often as every 24 hours, the radio interfaces change state to down, for seemingly no reason. Once this occurs, the only way to bring the radio interface back up is to reboot the AP. As far as we know, this wasn't happening until recently, when we enabled the "N" speeds. Things were working correctly for a year or two while the APs were configured just for b/g operation. The following is the only seeminlg-relevant thing that shows up in the logs:
*Nov 12 00:53:02.508: %LINK-5-CHANGED: Interface Dot11Radio0, changed state to reset
*Nov 12 00:53:03.507: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface Dot11Radio0, changed state to down
Some additional info:
- All of the APs are connected to PoE Cisco c2960 switches
- We have tried both hard-coded radio channels, and non hard-coded
- We have tried various ways setting power inline negotiation
- We are not using a WLC
- System Software Version: 12.4(21a)JA1
- Bootloader Version: 12.4(18a)JA3
I have attached output of sh run, sh log and sh controlers dot11Radio0. (Another oddiy - the line %DOT11-2-RESET_RADIO hasn't shown up in the other logs I have viewed after this issue occurs...)
