Cisco Wireless :: Multiple DHCP Pools On 5508 WLC?

Nov 8, 2012

I am trying to come up with a wireless solution for a campus deployment. The campus has ten buildings currently using Autonomous APs and are currently converting to Dual 5508 Controller model.
 
I would like to have a separate AP Mgmt subnet in each building, so I will configure an ip helper on the SVI on this vlan to:
 
Option1      -      Point to the Internet Router configured with DHCP Option 43 with the controller IP addresses
Option 2      -     Point to the Wireless LAN Controller itself.
 
Problem with Option 1 is that the Internet Router will now have to connect directly to the COE network to be able to route back to the AP mgmt subnets. So I would emply a VRF here to keep the separation.
 
Problem with option 2 is that there appears to only be one DHCP scope allowed on the controller. So this would mean a flat mgmt network across all buildings which I am trying to avoid. I know that after the AP joins the controller, I could change the IP and change the vlan on the port but this is not very neat.
 
So question is:
 
Is there a way of getting multiple DHCP pools on the controller?

Cisco WAN :: WLC2504 Not Accepting DHCP Pools From 3750?

Dec 4, 2011

I got a set of dhcp pool in one 3750 attached to diferent Vlans in the network, the wired network works fine, you can get from any switch port across the LAN a diferente VLANs IP. In my wlc2504 I got 5 WLANs with the DHCP server pointed to the VLAN in the 3750, but I just got one set of ip when i tried to connect to diferent WLAN, without connectivity, I can see all the Ap's, and ping the VLANs in the 3750,

Cisco Wireless :: WLC 5508 Multiple Interfaces For Multiple SSIDs

May 13, 2013

I am trying to build a new network from scratch, I have the WLC 5508 w/ Aironet 3600e APs connected to my Netgear Smart Switches and a Linksys RV082 router that I'm using as my DHCP server with several VLANs for several stuff on my Switches.
 
I have 2 questions:
 
1. Can I have 5 Interfaces configured on 5 different VLANs, each SSID on each a different Port:
 
Port 1: Controller management only=> 192.168.x.x /24
Port 2: SSID 1: WiFi Internal=> 172.16.x.x/12 (Radius Auth with no sharing)
Port 3: SSID 2: WiFi Internal w/ sharing=> 192.168.x.x/24 (Radius Auth with sharing)
Port 4 :SSID 3: WiFi Guest=> 10.0.x.x/8 (Web Auth)
Port 5: SSID 4: WiFi IT=> 192.168.x.x/24 ( Radius or certificate Auth with access to the controller management interface)
 
2. How can I use the Controller as the DHCP server for all the WiFi traffic, and how should that be configured to work with my other DHCP server?

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 Assign Single Ssid To Multiple Interface Groups By Assigning Ssid To Multiple AP Groups

Aug 26, 2012

Is it possible to assign a single ssid to multiple interface groups by assigning the ssid to multiple AP groups? 
 
I have buildings geographically dispersed that are configured with multiple vlans in interface groups so that I can maintain an addressing scheme of dhcp assigned addresses per building.  Each building is also further grouped as AP groups.  I'd like to know if by assigning the same wlan ssid to each of the AP groups, will I maintain addressing integrity for each building?  I'm thinking it will work.
 
Do the buildings have to be outside AP range of each other to avoid problems?

5508 controller
7.2.110.0  code
6 buildings
6 interface groups
1 ssid

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 Multiple DHCPs On WLC

May 18, 2013

My 5508 WLC which runs version 7.4 is configured as a DHCP server for the clients and here's my problem:
 
-One AP is attatched with an interface which has the vlan 10 and a ssid in AP groups

-One AP is attatched with another interface which has the vlan 20 and the same ssid in AP groups

And there are two DHCP pools in WLC, one is for vlan 10 and one is for vlan 20.For now, a PC accesses AP-1 and get an IP address from DHCP pool vlan 10, then I power off AP-1, then the client accesses AP-2 but still get the IP address from DHCP pool vlan10, i need to get the IP from DHCP VLAN20, what can i do now?

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 Multiple WLC In Same Location Best Practices

Jun 1, 2011

We have 2 5508 WLC's on site (5508-1 & 5508-2) and at the completion of this project we will have around 150 access points. We are also using WCS.  5508-1 is set as the primary/master controller.  5508-2 is the secondary controller, serves as backup if/when 5508-1 fails. All LAPs connect to 5508-1 by default, so 5508-2 is basically sitting there doing nothing.  Is this the best way to take advantage of the resources that are available?  Would wireless clients see improved performance if the access points were split between the two controllers?  If we do split LAPs between the controllers should I make sure that all of the LAPs on a particular floor are connected to the same controller or does that matter?

Cisco Wireless :: WLC 5508 And Multiple AP-Manager Interfaces?

Jan 3, 2012

I have a 5508-WLC appliance and configured multiple ap-manager interfaces to balance the join request from LAPs and the load.I went to console port from some LAPs and saw that there was that balance among multiple ap manager interfaces (Dynamic AP Management Interfaces). Then we torn down one of the ap manager interfaces and confirmed that the LAPs were moved to next ap manager interface automatically.But the question here is, how can I verify which ap-manager interface was used for a LAP from the WLC via GUI or CLI ??  or how can I see the amount of APs joined using that ap manager interface from WLC ?

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 - Multiple Web Authentication Pages

Jan 15, 2013

I have looked through the forum and think that I have found the answer to my question but I just need confirmation of my thoughts. We are using a 5508 W LAN controller running software ver 7.2.110.0 and LAP 1142n AP's.
 
What I would like to do is to configure multiple guest W LAN for each of our regional offices. Each of these W LAN needs to be configured with a Web Authentication page relevant to the office location. My question is this, can I have a Web Authentication page for each location or just 2, the default internal page and 1 customized page?

Cisco Wireless :: DHCP On WLC 5508 7.4.100.0 With HA

Jun 11, 2013

We've encountered problem from the last few days with DHCP on certain SSID's. We have a wireless network with 13 SSID's being managed by a WLC 5508 pair configured as high availability (52 AIR-CAP3502I).  Yesterday we encountered an issue with DHCP on a few of the SSID's but not all, and as a last resort a reboot of the controller fixed the problem.  Statically assigning addressing allows for traffic to traverse the network out to the web and back so I don't think it's a VLAN configuration issue on the wired side.  It's worth mentioning however that the controllers are configured for a LAG to HP switches.  DHCP is being handled by an external windows DHCP server and the primary server address points to the gateway which has a relay configuration pointing to the windows server on the other side of it.  Again, rebooting the controller fixed the problem and the web traffic traverses fine if statically assigning addressing.

Cisco Wireless :: Multiple Anchor Tunnels On One 5508 Controller

Jan 2, 2012

I'm trying to research the tunnel limits on a 5508 controller if you're terminating controllers to two different SSID's.  For example.  In my DMZ i have  a GUEST SSID for contractors and guests and then I have another SSID used by employees so that tablet and mobile phone users can access the interenet.   Because we don't trust any of these devices we have that SSID is termiated just as we do our GUEST SSID. 
 
To reduce the number of anchor controllers I deploy, I wanted to start with one 5508 Controller. (then move up to about 3)  This controller would have two SSID's, GUEST & MOBILE.  On the Foreign controllers when I setup anchor tunneling I will be anchoring to the same controller however to two different SSID's. 
 
Per the 5508 specs it supports 71 tunnels.
 
So my question to the group is, will the 5508 see this anchoring as one tunnel each? Or does it support 71 Tunnels per SSID?

Cisco Wireless :: WLC 5508 Internal DHCP

Aug 22, 2011

The two controllers are having two internal DHCP servers with the same range in LAN (enx1,enx2). but i have specified which is primary DHCP server(enx3) in WLAN interface.
 
Now if a new user added into network, will he get IP address from primary dhcp(WLC) or AP connected WLC.
 
if two users connected to 2 diff AP's which are connected to 2 WLC will get the same IP address? since having same address pool configured.

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 - WLC And Remote DHCP

Sep 16, 2012

I am having trouble getting DHCP working for a site connected using Flex Connect. Here is my setup. I have a single 5508 Controller at one site using the 10.3.0.0 network.  All AP's at that site are in local mode and use the local DHCP server, 10.3.0.2.  Everything works fine there. Each site uses a different SSID as well.
 
At my second site, 10.4.0.0, all AP's there connect back to the controller at the site above and are in Flex Connect mode. The AP's work fine and the clients work fine there but they get an IP address on teh 10.3.0.0 instead of the 10.4.0.0 network. If i setup the SSID at this site to override the DHCP server settings and tell it to use 10.4.0.2, which is our local DHCP server, the clients don't get an address at all.Is this simply a matter of setting an IP Helper address on the router where the WLC is located or is there more to it than that?

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 - Multiple Office Extend APs Behind NAT To Single Address

Feb 29, 2012

I have a situation where a user needs more than one office extend AP in his home. My office extend controller is a 5508 running 7.0.220.0. Are there any issues NATing multiple OE APs to a single address? My initial lab results indicate that each of the AP's associate with the controller and establish a DTLS tunnel. I see the SSIDs get pushed to the AP and then it seems to restart the process never being fully operational. Is there a workaround that will allow me to run mutliple OE APs?

Cisco Wireless :: WLC 5508 - Second DHCP Server For Second SSID?

Apr 22, 2012

I have Internal DHCP Server configured on the Cisco WLC 5508 and all is working fine.  DHCP Range is 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.245. Now I created another SSID but I want clients connecting to this SSID get specific IP's or from a specific range.  WLC has no option to bind a DHCP pool to a specific IP so what I did I checked the option to "Override DHCP" and added the IP of my firewall WLC is connected to and setup a DHCP Pool on that firewall as 192.168.1.89 to 192.168.1.94 (192.168.1.88/29).
 
Client can connect to the second SSID but can't grab and IP address, what am I missing ?

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 / Clarification On DHCP Server For WLC?

Apr 10, 2013

Recently I came across a wireless design whcih I ws not able to understand.The design is:
 
1. Two wireless LAN Controllers 5508, each with 25 AP license. AP load (5APs per Contorller) shared between the WLCs and congured with Backup Controller option.
 
2. The design has a Data Center Switch 3560x series, on which the two WLCs, Cisco Prime Infrastructure and Cisco MSE were connected. I've attached the design here.
 
3. The Data Center Switch is configured with DHCP pool for the wireless clients. The IP Address of the Data Center Switch is : 10.xx.xx.2 and Default Gateway is: 10.xx.xx.1
 
4. On the WLC, the Management Interface is configured with the IP Address: 10.xx.xx.21 for Controller 1 adnd 10.xx.xx.22 for Controller 2. But, their DHCP Server is configured with IP Address: 10.xx.xx.1 but not with 10.xx.xx.2 .
 
This means, all the DHCP requests are pointing towards the Gateway of the Data Center Switch.Is this the correct configuration?I have seen the Wireless Clients getting the IPs allocated from the DHCP Pool, even though the Management Interface's DHCP server configured with  Gateway IP address 10.xx.xx.1 .
 
The DHCP configuration for the Data Center Switch is:

ip dhcp pool xxxxxx
network 10.164.220.0 255.255.254.0
default-router 10.164.220.1
 
The Management Interface configuration on the WLC is:

Interface Configuration
Interface Name................................... management
MAC Address...................................... 2c:54:2d:72:b5:40
IP Address....................................... 10.164.220.21
IP Netmask....................................... 255.255.254.0

Cisco Wireless :: WLC 5508 Internal DHCP Server

May 7, 2012

I am hoping to get your feedback around the dhcp issues I am facing with Two Centrally Switched Wireless LANs. The setup is as follows:

- I have a WLC 5508 which has been configured with 4 SSIDs, out of which 2 are using Central Authentication and Switching. - I have an LWAP connected to the WLC in HREAP mode. - WLC is configured as the DHCP server for clients connecting to the SSID 'Guest'. For the rest, I am using external dhcp server. - Only one scope for Guest Interface is setup on the WLC. 
 
Problems:
1. As far as I know, for WLC to act as internal dhcp server, it is mandatory to have the proxy enabled, but the Clients connecting to SSID 'Internet' are unable to get an ip address from the external dhcp server, if dhcp proxy is enabled on the WLC. If i disable the proxy, it all works fine.
2. DHCP does not release the ip addresses assigned to clients even after they are logged out.
3. If a machine which was earlier connected to 'Guest' SSID connects to the 'Internet' SSID, it requests the same ip it was assigned by the WLC which it was assigned under 'Guest', but gets tagged with the V LAN configured on the management interface.

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 Internal DHCP Server

Jul 21, 2012

A client wants us to use the internal DHCP server on a 5508 instead of Windows DHCP. They will have 15 APs initially and upto 25 later. The docs on the 7.2 WLC make it sound like this is discouraged: Internal DHCP Server.

The controllers contain an internal DHCP server. This server is typically used in branch offices that do not already have a DHCP server. The wireless network generally contains 10 access points or fewer, with the access points on the same IP subnet as the controller.
 
In this case, the APs will not be in the same subnet as the Managment Internet.Is it a mistake to use the internal DHCP with upto 25 APs (3 WLANs)?

Cisco Wireless :: 5508 - DHCP Requests Starts Failing

I have a school with 550 iPads.  We are using two 5508 WLCs sharing the number of APs.  The DHCP server and the default gateway for the network are on the firewall.  The clients are able to get a DCHP.  After some time, maybe about longer than a month, the clients are no longer able to get DCHP addresses.  A reboot of both controllers takes care of this.  Presently we are runing 7.2.110 OS.  I am going to upgrade to the latest 7.4.100, and reload tonight.

voice -> 10.10.7.1 ->dhcp 10.10.10.1
guest -> 192.168.1.2 ->dhcp 192.168.1.2
 
Local DHCP (via the 5508) is for the guest network while the management and voice use the Windows DHCP server.
 
My problem, Voice and guest work fine.  I have two SSID's (one 802.1X and the other PSK) that use the management interface that will not get an IP.  I have enabled  dhcp proxy from the cli on the controller.  I tried with the management VLAN tagged and untagged.
