Cisco Wireless :: WAC 5508 Not Able To Connect Using LAEP
Mar 29, 2013
I have a WAC CT5508. I can connect any devices wirless. I have Windows 8 Dell Latitude 10 laptop and I am not able to connect to the internet. Dell has a bullitin saying that Cisco-PEAP(GTC), LEAP, and EAP_FAST is not supported by the Cisco device. It supports all WPA security for the Latitude 10. How to check that my controller and access point is running WPA and not LAEP, PEAP?
I have a Controller 5508, CAP 3501E.I have a problem, all client who connect in 802.11n connect only in Bn and not in Gn.When I diseable the n, the same client connect in 802.11g.
I need to install one 5508 and a 4402 together to bring redundancy to a wireless environment.Can I do this?. What are the neccesary steps to perform this?, the idea behind this is to bring redundancy is the primary WLC falls for any reason.
Before we were able to connecto to WIFI network when Cisco1231G APs were in Autonomous mode. After we connect all APs to Cisco 5508 WLC. And now we are not able to use our Wireless Cisco 7921G IP Phones.
I am in the process of upgrading our wireless infrastructure from a series of APs centrally managing the infrastructure centrally with the WLC 5508 and new APs (1142). All seems to be going well, the APs see the controller and are downloading the latest information/changes and I can connect to a test network. The current issue I am having is that I cannot connect to the AP via the web interface.
The config for the management interface of the 5508 is: interface GigabitEthernet4/0/20 description ** Connection to WLC-5508-01 **
We have a remote location with 1 LWAPP AP connecting to a 5508 WLC. We are doing 802.1x auth/wpa2 on 1 SSID for iPads to connect to. Now we want to simply connect a printer to print wireless using AirPrint from the iPads. The problem is how to get the printer connected to the wireless network specifically to the sane SSID? Will the printer need to support 802.1x or have the ability to do certificates? Is there a better way to do this.
Guestconnect SSID configured on 5508 WLC with Pass through athentication (NAC guest server). No issue with Laptops and Iphone/Ipad ver 4and 5. Only Iphone Ver 6 users unable to access Guest connect .
I have Cisco 5508 Wlan Controller and its having 6 Fiber Ports and I have AIR-LAP1131AG-E-K9 Access Point. Can this Access Point will work with this Lan Controller? Can i connect 3 switches to this wlan controller?
We have two SSID's Guest and Corp. We are using 5508 controllers.
The problem is that if an iPad user is connected to Guest SSID and then try to connect to Corp then it fails saying "Unable to connect to Corp". After 10-15 retires the same iPad connects successfully. The problem doesn't happen on windows PC. I have attached debug for one of the clients.
I have a wireless 5508 with license base to 50 aps, i use a deployment flex connect. I already registered all my access points, I use web authentication to authenticate users guest, and the service dhcp is in the central site.
My issue is the users in each remote site, can not get an ip address by dhcp from the central site, they can authenticate in the guest ssid, but any users can not get an ip. The request is passing by the wan in this way
Central Site DHCP - Router WAN - Remote Site - Users with notebooks. I use flex connect central deployment (all the traffic consulting to the wlc) .
perhaps i should use local deploy? The wireless is in the central site.
I have a 5508 WLC and 40+ LAP1142N APs spread across 19 locations that allows staff to connect to our private network via wireless. I recently deployed about 40 new laptops all identical make and model HP ProBook 4530's and all have the same client setup for the wireless. Out of those 40 laptops I have 4 that will not connect to the private network. However, these same laptops will connect to my public, open wireless network without issue. In addition to the 4 that will not connect all the others will prompt twice for network authentication.Now, I have about 10 other laptops that are not the HP model and all connect without issue and without dual propt. I don't think this is a wireless network issue but could be some type of issue with this model of laptop.
Has anyone come accross a problem whereby an SSID becomes unavailable when selecting a Radio Policy of '802.11g Only'? The SSID is configured identically accross multiple controllers, but only works on the WISM's. The same WLAN profile on a 5508 is unavailable unless I select a Radio Policy of 'All'.
All controllers (WISM's and 5508's are running 6.0.188.0)The WLAN profile is using MAC Filtering[WPA2][Auth(802.1X)] as the security policy.
We have implemented WLAN using Cisco WLAN controller (5508) and AP (AIR-CAP3502E-E-K9), i am trying to connect AP (which have gigabit port) with Layer 3 switch using UTP Cat-6 Cable having 24 AWG Wire Gauge.
What maximum length i can achieve by using above mentioned cable?
I got a problem when I use WLC 5508 connect to LDAP for authentication, but no luck there, it's a simple config, but not easy to work on my job, I got the following messgae. [code]
I had configured one access point CAP3602E in flex connect mode through a WLC 5508 after deploying the access point in flex control mode the local mac-filering is not working. before it was working when ap was in local mode. any body have to know is the mac-filtering working in flex-control mode ?

I have a WLC 5508, AIR-LAP1142N APs and a SSID for students to connect to who bring their own device. I am still testing this and it has not been rolled out but I am running into some serious issues with joining the network. I am authenticating them through a RADIUS server (2008 R2). Problem: many of them cannot connect because they are lacking the certificate.
1. What is a good setup for authentication in a BYOD environment
2. If my setup is good what can I do to allow kids to use their computers on the wireless either without the certificate (which I know is unlikely) or what do I need to have them do to connect. I am hoping it does not involve hard wiring and getting the certificate from the server.
have a Cisco 5508 controller (version 6.0.199.4) that when I enable global multicast mode it will work for an hour or two and then it will kill the network. All internet both wired and wireless, access to server everything dead. I then have to directly connect to the service port and disable the global multicast mode. Then two reasons for enabling it are Docs2Go and LanSchool both require multicast to be enabled. I have it enabled on our wired network and it works OK there. ted.
I just turned on 2 Wirelless LAN Controllers 5508 and I am getting this message on both of them:
Loading primary image (Image not found)
** Unable to read "linux.pri.img" from ide 0:2 **
Loading backup image (Image not found)
** Unable to read "linux.bak.img" from ide 0:2 **
And it is taking me to the BootMenu. I selected option 4 to Clear Configuration and the controller seems to restart the system but I still get the same error. I checked the LEDs status and Sys is Amber and Alarm is OFF which according to the documentation is a System Crash.
I have a WLC5508 with around 70 AP's (LAP1042N) connecting over an MPLS WAN network. WLC and AP's are running 7.4.100
From time to time I have an AP which disassociates from the WLC with the logging beneath. This is a problem with the AP, or is this due to network saturation between the AP and the WLC ?
And if so, should I change the default retransmit values ?
I am planning to upgrade WLC from 7.2.103.0 to 7.2.110.0 due to some bug, but I wanted to know if it is compatible with WCS - 7.0.240.0 and NAC Guest server version 2.1.0, I am made some search but I couldn't get to proper conclusion.
I have a wlc 5508 running version 7.0.116.0 that I need to uppgrade to use the CAP2602I AP. I understand that I need to upgrade it to version 7.0.240 before 7.4.100 to avoid loosing HREAP VLAN mappings, and I have also read that i need to install the FUS image [URL]. In what order should this be done? Shlod the FUS image be installed before new firmware ore after firmware or after 7.0.240 but before 7.4?
since few weeks i configure my APs on the new WLC5508, and then, the lights are off on the AP, is it normal? however they seems to work fine. What does this light means? FW version: 7.0.22,Is it important?
In order to enbale HA SSO on our two 5008 WLC's, I plan to upgrade them to 7.3 / 7.4 (currently 7.2)Right now 7.3.112.0 is the latest release. We do not have any 1600 series AP's, which requires 7.4.any reason going for 7.4 directly..or not going for it?
I am trying to setup SSO between my primary and secondary 5508 controller, and it doesn't appear to be working. I lose connection to both devices after the reboot and then have to console in and disable redundancy manually to regain connectivity. Is there something special required for this to work that isn't apparent?
I've just gotten in two new 5508 controllers that have come preinstalled with code version 7.0.116.0. My issue is that when I go to downgrade these to 7.0.98.218 I get an error after the Image version check is passed stating the following:ERROR: Incompatible SW image. ERROR: Please install the Data Payload Encryption licensed image.I've tried multiple times to no avail, I've also gone as far as installing the LDPE image of 7.0.116.0 thinking it needed that before downgrading but it still didn't work.
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 have two WLC 5508 and i want to know if it is possible to get an accesspoint ( eg. 1131) to connect to a controller over internet, without VPN-connection. I have read documents about HREAP but that needs, if I understands it correcly, a VPN tunnel or a dedicated WAN-link. I know that ARUBA has this function, but I cant find it with CISCO.
I am very interested in the new 7.3 feature HA.Also I can read that it is recommended to connect the two WLCs directly. How to use a L2-VLAN between them, in fact to bridge a distance between two data centres?
The connection can reach up to 144Mbps when using WPA2 with AES (Layer 2 security), WMM allowed (QOS). But when I use 802.1X (Layer 2 security), can only reach up to 54Mbps. Any special setting when using 802.1X to reach 144Mbps? Or do I need to upgrade?
We have WLC 5508 installed in our premises to which 80 1242AG APs are connected. Few days ago, all the APs all of a sudden disconnected from Controller and rejoined after 12 to 15 hours. when we try to investigate, there was regulatory domain conflict occur. But we didn't understand that those APs were configured with the same config before. How come they got diconnected and now rejoined without changing any configration in WLC?
I've got a deployment of 1142N APs using a pair of 5508 controllers running 7.3.101.0. We're in the United States and the country is set to "US". I've added the UNII-2 channels to Auto-RF on the controllers via "config advanced 802.11a channel add 100" and so forth. According to the output of " show advanced 802.11a channel", I've enabled every 5 GHz channel that's legal for use in the US:
My confusion comes because the automatic assignment of 5 GHz channels is heavily biased toward just a few of them, with most of the available space being ignored. Here are the 5 GHz channel assignments from a large, single-story building with 31 APs:
(qty 2) 36 (qty 6) 40 (qty 5) 44 [ code].....
A total of nine channels are used (two of them only once) while twelve other channels are ignored completely. Many of these APs are close enough to hear one another, so assigning seven of them to ch. 48 makes no sense.
Looking at my campus as a whole, I've got numerous APs using channels 36, 40, 44, 48, 149, 153, 157, 161, and 165. I've got at least one each using channels 52, 56, 60, 64, 112, 116, and 132. Nothing at all is on 100, 104, 108, 136, and 140. I am using 20 MHz wide channels, between, so all are independent.
Can anyone shed light on A) why my distribution is so heavily skewed toward the first nine channels, and B) how I can learn whether certain channels are being avoided due to the presence of radar, etc, on the frequency? I'd like to take full advantage of 5 GHz by having as little channel re-use as possible.
