I will migrate a Cisco WLAN Controller 2125 to 2504,So I have one question?I need to make all configuration into the new Wlan Controller or I can migrate with one tool or something else?
View 15 RepliesI have a Cisco Wlan Controller 2504 with 1042N AP (3-nos) every thing was working fine from past 2 months. Now i am getting a issue with clients which are connected to the wireless AP, they are not able to get an dhcp IP address from the 2960 Switch (DHCP Server). The clients are getting IP address as 0.0.0.0. [code]
View 36 Replies View RelatedI have a 2504 and my goal is to automatically redirect a users home page when they connect to a certain internal website. Authentication isn't a real concern just now.
Is it possible to simply have a users home page redirected when they open their browser upon connecting to the SSID? All of the documents available have stated to use 802.1x / RADIUS or other fancy tools.
We are planning to setup a new WLAN using Cisco 2504 WLAN Controller and 1142N Access Point. Is it possible to create individual user accounts for the users those who all are connecting to this WLAN Network by using the 2504 WLAN Controller ?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am looking to configure a wired and wireless guest network. I have industrial barcode scanners that connect to one SSID and then there is the business network on the office SSID (no vlan seperation for these devices just different SSIDs). There is not really a need to seperate the business network from the scanners in any case. However, there are needs for a guest network and this needs to be seperated. At the bare minumum I would like to have the wireless guest network. Here is what I have: 2125 Wireless LAN controller managing 18 LAPs (1 indoor and 17 outdoors)Cisco Cat 2950 switches (2 x 24 port and soon to be replaced with 2 x 48 port 2960's with 802.1x capability) Sonicwall TZ210 firewallOne existing wired and trunked vlan for PLC infrastructure. One ESXi hosting Windows server guests (soon to be 2 with vMotion) The reason for the wired guest access network is tp prevent anyone from plugging into the wall jack in the office with thier home laptops or anyone else from being on the same subnet as our domain machines. Granted they would be unathenticaed but there would be no layer 2 seperation and that is what I think would be best.
How would I go about doing this on the wireless controller without an anchor controller just using my existing hardware? I would like to have the Guest SSID only availible in the front office. Is it possible to offer a guest network while still servicing the business network SSID on the same access point? Then might I be able to have the guest network be treated as it should at the controller? However this might present another issue altogether as the guest traffic will be over the same wire as the business SSID until it hits the controller for management.
A customer has wireless LAN controller with version 4.2.205.0 and i want to upgrade it to version 7.do i need to upgrade the controller to intermediate version or i cant directly upgrade it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to setup a 2504 to have one Guest WLAN and one Staff WLAN with a controller port for each WLAN connected to different devices.
I would prefer to connect the WLC Guest port to an ASA 5510 and the WLC Staff port to an internal 2960S switch. Will this work? I haven't setup a 2500 series controller previously.
I have a Cisco 2125 Wireless Lan Controller and I have problem with hold coverage errors and I had tri different solutions with different antenna, the resume is:The antena gain 10*0,5 Dbi(Using a 5 Dbi antenna or 10 Dbi antenna) with Tx power 1 and the antenna gain 20*0,5 Dbi (using 10Dbi antenna) with Tx power 3 the coverage is the same.
If I try the configuration 20*0,5 gain antenna and Tx power 1 the controller show me one error and the controller don't permit this configuration. Why don't permit this configuration?
Current environment is Cisco 2125 WLC managing ~12 3502E AP's for a single location. Client is looking to provide HA for the single 2125 WLC. With the 2125 now EO-Sale is it possible to go with one additional 2504 WLC and leverage the existing 2125 or would it require going with just (2) 2504's?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have this issue regarding the 1131 Access Points. These access points were fat access points from the factory and were applied with LAP ios so that they can join our controller. We have 2 controllers 5108 for Internal network office use and a seperate 2125 for Guest internet both these are physically seperate networks. These AP's have been working fine since say like 8-9 months and suddenly they started giving problems. The status light keeps changing colour and the AP does not join the controller 2125. Whenever i am connecting this ap to our internal network it joins the controller 5508 and works fine but somehow does not register with our 2125 guest controller. This issue is being faced by one of our client. Could this be an issue due to the ap being loaded with lap ios or does it have anything to do with the different software version fo the controllers as i could not find any things regarding this.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently setup a 2504 WLC that has two primary WLANs (internal and guest) which get their IP addresses from a central DHCP server using the local router's broadcast forwarding. Things seem to be working well for the internal wlan, but clients on the guest wlan don't seem to be getting IP addresses. If I give the client a static IP they are able to communicate across the wlan okay.
It is worth noting that I am using LAG between the controller and router and this guest wlan is really just a regular wlan (with PSK) that has an access-list applied to force it to the internet only. The access-list should be allowing dhcp requests through, but in any case, I removed the access-list and it made no difference.
Here is a debug client for a machine connected to the guest vlan (vlan 33). The internal wlan is on the 10.10.10.0/24 network (same as wired and same that the AP's are connected to) and the guest wlan is 10.33.0.0/16. I don't understand why I am seeing the dhcp request come from the internal vlan/ wlan first and it gets an IP address on this network. I then see a request on the guest wlan/vlan at which point it appears to get a valid IP address on the guest network (10.33.0.0), but the client never sees this. [code]
My customer has multiple sites, each with a 2504 WLC.A data center with a 5508 in the DMZ acting as Anchor for the remote sites.ACS 5.x and NCS Prime.All guest users will egress to the internet via a Vlan in the DMZ.Authentication is currently web-auth on the Anchor, but will move to NCS once that is fully deployed.
Is it possible to put a printer in each site for Guest WLAN users to use?
I currently have a single 2504 Controller managing 50 AP's. I am adding a Second 2504 AP Controller with 15 Lic to manage an additional 10 AP's. My current 2504 has each port configured for my four subnets that and it is managing AP's in 4 buildings. Should I configure the new 2504 the same way so that it can see all four sites? All so if the main 2504 goes down can the second 2504 take over even thou we will be out of lic?

View 7 Replies View RelatedWe have a Cisco 2504 controller and approximately 35 AP's. Some of the AP's are located directly above each other (on another floor). When I run a basic annalyzer, it appears that there is some adjacent AP traffic, the controller has some of the close AP's with the same channel, so there is some RF interferance. The AP's currently are all setup for "G" and majority of the AP's are 1200 series, most of them are 1242's. Should and can the AP's be set with static channels so that there is no adjacent signals? If so where in the controller can that be done?
View 3 Replies View RelatedThis is a new setup and has not worked yet. I have multiple 3602 APs and one 2504 Controller. I thought initially I could plug-in an AP into one of two POE Ports on the 2504. During debug mode I see that it has low power, was suprised that the 2504 switch can't fully power the AP? Is this correct?Anyways I have another POE switch that I am using with ample power. The configuration for my wireless is that it will be completely segmented off of my internal network as this is for guest access. So DNS servers are external so I cannot create host entries for the AP to discover the controller. With that being said I believe that is just one way for the discovery process to happen. I have my controller management interface and DHCP scope on the controller on the same subnet plugged into the same POE switch. The AP does seem to get a DHCP address and I can ping the controller from the AP. I cannot get any further then that. I will not join the controller and the radios get disabled. I get messages such as "discovery response from MWAR is rejected. I will post a debug log of the AP and its bootup process. This is new equipment so I would assume the firmware is somewhat up-to-date and the 3602 AP is somewhat the latest model.
View 3 Replies View RelatedOur current way of configuration for this is standalone ap's with multiple ssid's. The main network ssid's are on the 10.0.0.0 networks. The internet only ssid is on the 192.168.1.0 network. ( this is a wireless network only,no wired) They all get there dhcp address from a layer 3 switch. To prevent the wireless 192.168.1.0 intenet only network from getting to the 10.0.0.0 networks, we just put a simple source & destination deny acl on the in vlan interface of the 192.168.1.0 network on the layer 3 switch.Now that we are impementing a Cisco 2504 controller, the management and ap manger are both on the 10.0.0.0 network.( both on port 1 with dynamic ap manager enabled) I can setup as many ssid's on the 10.0.0.0 network and they all work fine. But when I setup the 192.168.1.0 internet only ssid it will not connect. I'm assuming that its because the 192.168.1.0 network or anyone trying to connect and use that network has to go through the controller located on the 10.0.0.0 network. I'm thinking that the acl on the vlan interafce is the problem.So, if I'm correct, what is the best way to setup a separate internet only network through the private networks?

We have 22 x AP1602.5 of them show up in the WLC with Controller Association Latency of around 1 minute and 10 seconds.The other 17 all have latency around 10 seconds.
1. What are possibile causes for high value of association latency?
2. Could high-value association latency be an indication of badly working wifi for data traffic?

I have a 2504 controller and 2 2602 access points. I have managed to get them connected ok to the controller. Now I'm in the home stretch here trying to figure out how to authenticate clients to active directory 2003.I have followed a really good guide on setting up the windows 2003 CA server and have got my certificates installed ok on the controller.It looks as though I have to install the client certificate on each client laptop?? Is there a method other than client certificates with active directory?
View 26 Replies View RelatedAll controllers are in version 7.2.111.3.C1 is a 5508, it is ou anchor controller.C2 is a 5508, it is a big site controller.C3 is a 2504, it is a small site controller. C2 and C3 are in the same mobility group than C1 (and all is up up in mobilty managment). When "DHCP Addr. Assignment" is enable on C1 : Clients on C2 received their IP address by our external DHCP server via C1 and the guest tunneling betwenn C1 and C2 and all is working fine. Clients on C3 don't received their IP address by our external DHCP server via C1 and the guest tunneling betwenn C1 and C3, so nothing work.
