Cisco Wireless :: Some C1242 Radios Are Disabled After WLC 5508 Upgrade To 7.3.101.0?
May 2, 2013
One week ago I use a WLC 5508 to place and replace another WLC 5508 with version 6.0.199.4, when I conect the new WLC all AP´s works OK only 10 dont work and not are recognizes from the WLC with version 7.3.101.0. The fail is the radios stay disabled. All ap´s are AIR-AP1242G-AK9 . See the image below, the only difference this ten AP´s are conected in switches cisco all the rest are connected in switches of ohter vendor. If possible some command in the configuration is not neccesary and make the bad function?This is tipically config apllied by the customer in they cisco switches interface GigabitEthernet0/22description PB-RS-A22switchport access vlan 5switchport mode accessswitchport port-securityswitchport port-security aging time 2switchport port-security violation restrictswitchport port-security aging type inactivitymacro description cisco-desktopspanning-tree portfastspanning-tree bpduguard enable?

I have a WCS, four 5508 controllers, Cisco 3750X switches, and both autonomous Cisco 1200, and LightWeight 3502i in service.The problems I am having, is that some of my Access Point reset for no apparent reason, and I get alerted by my NMS.When I look at the switch port, that connects an access point that reported down, I see the POE switch port went down and back up in 4 seconds, just long enough for the access point to reset.There are no errors on the switch port(s). No cable or speed/duplex issues. Switch IOS: c3750e-universalk9-mz.122-55.se1
There are no other pertinent entries in the switch log. Just that the port went down and then back up. Always in 4 seconds.When a reset happens the WCS reports on the access point: '802.11/b/g/n' interface of AP associated to controller 172.20.0.x is down. Reason: Indicates that while the radio state should be updated on controller, no reset should be reported.But nothing else, except that the radio came back up.
This is happening two or three times a day, and rotates. It seems that it never happens at the same time of the day, or the same access point, or the same switch. (I have over 1000 access points and 500 switches in service)I am curious if the WCS is automatically resetting the access point radios, which is causing the switch port to go down/up?And if so, is it possible to turn off the automatic reset?

I'm running 3 WLC 5508, 2 of them running image AIR-CT5500-K9-7-0-116-0.aes, one AIR-CT5500-LDPE-K9-7-0-116-0.aes.
On the 5508 running the LDPE-image, I have 9 WLANs (170,171,180,181,190,191,281,282,283), all defined with admin status "ENABLED".
WLANs 180,181,281 belong to a defined AP-group, WLAN 190,191,282 belong to a different AP-group.
WLANs 180,181,190,191 are defined as H-REAP. The H-REAP APs registers without any problems at the backup WLC and switches back successfully to the primary controller after recovering from reboot. Unfortunately the WLANs 180,181,190,191 show status "DISABLED" every time the primary controller comes back and I have to enable them manually.
Doing exactly the same procedure with one of the other WLC, running AIR-CT5500-K9-7-0-116-0, I never face this problem.

We have a 5508 controller in main site.Which has two ports connected to local network.Management VLAN 500 is untagged and mapped to Port 1.All other interfaces are including 501 to 507 are mapped to Port 2.We have a SSID that is mapped to VLAN 501 interface , which successfully can be joined in main site.We connect an AP to remote site ;We have a remote site VLAN 115 which can be reached from main site.We connect an AP to access vlan 115 port on the remote site , we had described option 43 , so AP can successfully finds controller in local mode.
AP gets ip from VLAN 115 , can setup connection / ping controller successfully.There is a wide area connection between remote and main site.No trunk setup , the whole remote site is vlan 115.However when the client is trying to connect the test SSID , client cant get connected nor get ip address.Local switching is disabled.For this setup , client comes to AP as a requested , AP tunnels traffic to controller from vlan 500 , controller lets the client get into wired platform from VLAN 501.

We have a pair of 6513s and upgraded the IOS version to 12.2(33)SXI4a. After the upgrade we noticed VTP Pruning was disabled: [code] Is there any effect to production we need to to consider when re-enabling? (In other words, do we need to wait until a maintenance window to enable?)Also, we are using VTP v2 (and v1...) on our VTP Client 3560 access switches.

I am planing to upgrade 2 of my 5508 series WLC from 7.0.116 to version 7.2.111.3. I understand that legacy AP's are no longer supported. Is the upgrade straight-forward just like other code upgrades?

We are looking to upgrade our 5508 wireless controller from 7.0.98.0 to 7.0.220.0. Reason being, we have experienced a lot of access points disassociating from the controller as well as client authentication issues. Upgraded from 7.0.98.0 to 7.0.220.0 and any issues during the upgrade or after the upgrade?

We recently received a couple of new 5508 WLC running 7.2.103 but the FUS is running 6.0.182. Is it possible to upgrade the FUS to 7.0.0 remotely? Looking at the FUS release notes, user intervention is no longer required, Is this possible?

i'm going to upgrade a 5508 wlc code from 7.0.116.0 to 7.1.91.0 to add 3600 series access points having it all manageable via WCS ver 7.0.230.0 it seems to be possible, as it is explained in the compatibility matrix found on [URL]now I have to download the file to the controller...
AIR-CT5500-K9-SPECIAL-7-1-91-0.aes
(direct update possible)
before doing that I'd like to know if I will loose my configuration on the controller i'm concerned about that because the release document is not clear:
- We highly recommend that you back up your controller's configuration files prior to upgrading the controller software. Otherwise, you must manually reconfigure the controller.
- For busy networks, controllers on high utilization, or small controller platforms it is advisable to disable the 802.11a/b/g networks as a precautionary measure.
- Step 5 Disable any WLANs on the controller.
- Step 19 Re-enable the WLANs......
- Step 22 If desired, reload your latest configuration file to the controller. (reload config after reenabling wlans?another controller another question .....: a cisco wlc 2100
found 2 update files
AIR-WLC2100-K9-7-0-230-0-ER.aes
AIR-WLC2100-K9-7-0-230-0.aes
why 2 update files this time? what file to update first?

I have an AIR-AP1242AG-E-K9 which had c1240-k9w8-mx.124-21a.JA loaded, I followed the link below and upgraded with Cisco’s upgrade tool to c1240-rcvk9w8-mx with no problems at all, after the upgrade I could then see the LWAP on the 4402 controller and had it working a treat.Now the problems begin, I brought it into the office where we have 5508 controllers, plug in the LWAP into our management switch and boot it up I get an IP assigned from the DHCP server and the AP goes into discovery mode but never finds the controller.I have logged the boot process but this does not give much away, our other 1100 series AP’s boot fine,
[URL]
Console Boot Log.
Xmodem file system is available.
flashfs[0]: 9 files, 3 directories
flashfs[0]: 0 orphaned files, 0 orphaned directories
flashfs[0]: Total bytes: 15998976
[code]....
And that is where she sits and does nothing more, I have noticed the DNS problems but the other 1100 series LWAP’s boot up after show that same issue.

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...)

After upgrading my 5508s to 7.2.110.0, they are reporting mobility data path errors to one of my WiSMs running 7.0.235.0.
I get these messages on the 5508s reporting that it can't send a ping to the affected WiSM:
*ethoipSocketTask: Aug 08 21:15:41.175: %ETHOIP-3-PKT_RECV_ERROR: ethoip.c:341 ethoipSocketTask: ethoipRecvPkt returned error
*ethoipSocketTask: Aug 08 21:15:41.175: %ETHOIP-3-PING_RESPONSE_TX_FAILED: ethoip_ping.c:312 Failed to tx a ping response to <ip address>, rc=5
But maybe there is another clue because I also see in the same log these errors referencing the same WiSM:
*bcastReceiveTask: Aug 08 21:15:45.310: %LOG-1-Q_IND: mm_dir.c:1969 Failed to recreate the SSH Rule for <ip address>.
*mmSSHPeerRegister: Aug 08 21:15:44.829: %MM-1-SSHRULE_CREATE_FAILED: mm_dir.c:1969 Failed to recreate the SSH Rule for <ip address>.
Why is the controller trying to SSH to another controller? Was some SSH related feature added to 7.2 that has been accidentally enabled?

I've got a HTTP Redirect to a dedicated html site with our internet usage policy set up on multiple WAP4410N access points.This is working like a charm with laptops, but not with internet radios. They can't connect to the internet probably freezing on the http redirected site.Is there any way to exclude these devices from the redirect?

i noticed that the 1242AG does not bring up the Radios, when there is a Power Injector connected.I see in the Logs of the AP:
%CDP_PD-2-POWER_LOW: All radios disabled - NEGOTIATED WS-C6509 <Switchport MAC Add>
The Module in the 6500 is a WS-X6348-RJ-45 The Option "Power Injector installed" on the WLC is also enabled, with the MAC Address from the Switchport, but no change.When i disable CDP on the mentioned Switch Port and reload the AP, it comes up and runs fine.

I'm trying to configure Cisco 1262 AP's to allow me to use the 2.4 gHz radio for client access and the 5.x radio for the repeater connection back to a root AP connected to a LAN.
I have already configured the AP's to associate with each other via the 5.x radio, and have a client connected to the repeater AP via the 2.4 gHz radio. From my laptop on the LAN, I can connect to the repeater AP, but I cannot ping nor otherwise communicate with the distant client.
When I use the 2.4 gHz radio for repeater mode, clients that connect to the repeater AP can be seen and communicated with.Is there something special that needs to be done to get my desired scenario to work?All radios are members of bridge group 1.

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...)

Just recently upgrade our 2 5508 controllers from 6.0.199.0 to 7.0.116.0. Since that upgrade, I have a handful (8 to 10) of wireless laptops that now refuse to associate to any access points. The thing these laptops all have in common is some variation of the Intel Wifi Link AGN cards. I have about 200 other clients out there working just fine.
I've tried everything under the sun that I can think of. Patches, drivers, the whole sh'bang.
Is there a known issue with 7.0.116.0 and these particular cards?

I am trying to enable the workgroup bridge mode on the 5ghz 802.11N radio of a Aironet 1262N, but when I select the workgroup bridge mode from the GUI the radio becomes disabled. If I select the Access Point role from the GUI then the radio instantly becomes enabled. The same thing happens if I attempt the same procedure with the 2.4ghz radio as well. I can get the radios from both bands enabled if I select the Access Point role. I made sure to check that both radios were not set to workgroup bridge as well. I am running 12.4(25d)JA1 code on the AP. This is my first time working with this type of AP.

I just installed an E3200 to replace my old Linksys. All my Nooks, IPADs, laptops and desktops are connecting wirelessly fine. However, I have 2 Wi Fi Radios that will pick up the network but will not connect and go into a network connect time out. One of the radios also has a hardwired connection and that is working fine. I have checked and double checked the network name, WPA key, etc. Of course I have reset all the radios and reenter new data many times, both manually and auto.

I have a main with one WLC 7.0.240.0 and have acquired a HA with 7.3. I have considered whether to put on both WLC version 7.3 or 7.4.:
first, that there are differences between the two versions?
second: As I read, the version 7.4 can make backup of several WLC, this function is already available?

I've got a Cisco 2504 wireless controller, and I'd like to rename the AP name in the overview (at Monitor > AP's > Radios) so that I know which unit is placed where and hence be able to troubleshoot more easily.I haven't found any info about this, and usually that means it's not an option, right? I realise the AP name field comes from the device itself, but it seems impossible to rename the device too since I'm running on lightweight, correct?
