We are looking to deploy an indoor mesh deployment in an area where radar might be an issue.know that when using 1500 series APs you cannot choose UNII-1 channels even if they are deployed indoors.My question is if you can use a UNII-1 backhaul with indoor APs (3600 series for example) in an indoor mesh deployment.
View 8 RepliesI am implementating wlc 2504 and 1520 ap,i installated wlc and ap are got registered. In WLC i changed parameter as RAP and MAP.
As per doucment i have to enable Zero touch configuration in bridging. But bridging option is not their in wlc, wlc is running on 7.0.220
Here's the current configuration in our organization (which I believe is incorrect):We have a number of Cisco 1500 series AP's (22 in total), that are mounted outdoors to provide seamless WiFi coverage over a large area. Each AP however has its own physical ethernet connection back to the WLC (All the AP's are marked as Root AP's). They are all broadcasting the same SSID. We have tried to stagger the channel selection but because there are only three non-overlapping channels to choose from, and in some areas the density of AP's is quite high, there is multiple places of channel interference. With this configuration we experience 100-150 disconnects from clients every day. (Our clients are mobile so they move throughout the coverage area constantly).
My idea is to switch the AP's to the same channel thereby forming a wireless mesh, use the built in functionality of the 1500 series to use 802.11a as the backhaul, designate one or two AP's as root AP's and wire them back to the WLC. Thereby forming a WiFi mesh, which if I'm not mistaken is the point of the 1500 series in the first place!
I am however completely new at WiFi networks and wondering if I am simply mistaken in what I believe my proposed changes will enable, or if there is a better way to tackle the WiFi topology.
I have a running Mesh Network with AP 1552E and Controller 5508. The end customer has a new requirement to have a indoor coverage near to AP1552E (mesh AP). But in this building he has not any wired Network (it is far from any switched site). The question is: We can use an AP1262 indoor with Line Of Sigth to AP1552E in the running Mesh Network? I know AP1262 can be used in a Mesh Netwok (Root or Mesh) configuring it as BRIDGE [URL]

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have recently implemented Windows Deployment Services on our local network, but everytime we do a multicast image deployment the network get flooded to point of total saturation.
We have Netgear switches and a Cisco 2800 series router. IGMP Snooping has been enabled on all Switches, however, we are unsure on how to implement multicasting on the router.
The whole network is flat - no VLANs over than the default VLAN1. We only want multicasting to work within our local network and does not need to go out the other side of the router as that is the connection to the internet.
How to get the Cisco router configured properly to enable multicasting to not flood the network. It seems that even if we were to image 4 PCs using multicast this is enough to completely get the network flooded.
Also, am I right in thinking that IGMP needs to be enabled on all of the Switches?
I have a metal shop that needs wireless indoors and outdoors.
Will it work if I mount the 1262 inside with 4 indoor antennas mounted inside the building and 2 outdoor antennas mounted outside?
Is Aironet 1260 good for indoor LWAP or CAPWAP environment? Do we need external antenna for the Aironet 1260 access point when using it indoor?

View 1 Replies View Relateddeploying a large wireless network (about 14 access points) spread across 9 buildings that are in relative close proximity to each other. I have included a picture with a rough scale (it's editable, so feel free to play around with it). Anyways, here is the basic idea. I do basic IT consulting for small businesses and some friends of mine work for an apartment complex in my local area. They came to me with this idea of deploying a wireless network on the campus to provide their tenants with "free" basic wireless internet. Basic meaning, not intended to be a replacement for a private connection. But suitable for basic web browsing, school work (I live in a university town), and email. So I got to scratching my head and quickly realized that I need to dome some learning and refresh on my skills.

my boss has a vostro 1500 laptop and is constantly losing internet connection.

(BTW, I saw in the specs of the 1500 that it has Dual Core proccessor, but his is Centerino. How come?)
I formated his computer due to slow-speed among other problems, and did clean install of Win XP Pro.
Now I d/led all the drivers from Dell's site regarding the Vostro 1500, and installed them.
My problem is: Windows doesn't recognize a wireless adapter on the laptop.
Network Connections has only 1394 and LAN options.
In the 'Device Manager' I've got a question mark on "Network Controller" and on "SM channel".
I've tried to manually install Dell Wireless driver - no success.
Tried to set the laptop to ignore the Wireless switch through the BIOS - still havn't got any sign of Wireless adapter in Windows.
BTW - in the BIOS menu - I see "Dell Wireless" under "Wireless" property.

View 7 Replies View RelatedThe client is interested to deploy 2x new ACS 5.x and interested to setup split deployment between two ACS in two separate locations for load sharing, and configuration replication. At the same the client want an ability to make configuration changes on both ACS servers. According to Cisco ACS 5.x deployment notes all
Configurations must me make to a primary ACS servers and secondary servers will obtain configuration from the primary server which defeat the client requirements of the ability and capability to make changes to both server.
Question:
If I deploy two ACS servers in two different location as an independent servers, can I still replicate information between two servers? I know ACS 4.2 I can do replication between two servers.
