Currently I am using WLC 2504 with Software version 7.0.220.0. I am having some issues with Windows 8 clients they can't connect and I read on couple of review that wlc needs upgrade software.
I checked and latest versin is 7.4. Can I go to this version directly or I have to jump step by step.
I'm planning to upgrade our WLC 2504 from 7.2.111.3 to 7.4.100.0 but the cisco site says "WLC Version 7.4.100.0 will need Prime Infrastructure Version 1.3 to be managed, Version 1.3 is not yet available to download at this point of time" Is it something about NCS? we have only 1 cisco WLC 2504 and 6 1142APs.. Also let me know is it possible to go directly from 7.2 to 7.4 ?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a wireless controller that works perfect but because we have some new access-points 1602i that is only supported bij software version 7.4.100.0. So I need to upgrade the controller because I now have version 7.0.116.0. I have read in release notes of version 7.4.100.0 that I first need to upgrade to 7.0.240.0 to avoid losing those VLAN settings.
Note If you have VLAN support and VLAN mappings defined on H-REAP access points and are currently using a 7.0.x controller software release that is prior to 7.0.240.0, we recommend that you upgrade to the 7.0.240.0 release and then upgrade to 7.4.100.0 to avoid losing those VLAN settings.
But I also read something about Field Upgrade Software. If you are using a Cisco 2500 Series controller and you intend to use the Application Visibility and Control (AVC) and Net Flow protocol features, you must install Wireless LAN Controller Field Upgrade Software for Release 1.8.0.0-FUS. This is not required if you are using other controller hardware models. For more information, see [URL] .....
Here is the system information of my controller:

I was thinking of the following steps:
1. Backup the current config
2. Upgrade to version 7.0.240.0
3. Test and backup the config
4. Upgrade to version 7.4.100.0
5. Test and backup the config
6. Upgrade Field Upgrade Software 1.8.0.0
7. Test
I have two Windows 7 computers and neither one will successfully upgrade a 1242 AP to LWAP. However, I go to a coworker's XP machine and run the tool without issues. On Windows 7 I keep receiving the error message of ACL or Firewall is blocking. I have added rules and then even tried disabling the firewalls completely on both computers and still no success.

I've problem with a WLC 2504. Some Clients like phones and Thin Clients get an IP 0.0.0.0.Software Version is 7.0.235.0. Test with a Laptop seams to be OK. Some printers also got an 0.0.0.0.Around 30% are not OK. also had the log: Impersonation of AP with Base Radio MAC 00:yy:yy:yy:yy:yyusing source address of 00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx has been detected by the AP with MAC Address: 00:yy:yy:yy:yy:yy on its 802.11b/g radio whose slot ID is 0 The problem is, I cannot go to 7.2 version because I have 2 x AP 1231 and 2 x 1242 AP's.1231 AP's are not anymore supported in 7.2 Version.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have two WLC 2504 controllers. These controllers are for two different buildings. But they share a VLAN, and network address range. How can I control the access points to the register selected only at a specific controller.
Example:
AP 1 -> WLC 1
AP 2 -> WLC 2
AP 3 -> WLC 1
Since the buildings also broadcast in different SSID. The two controllers are in a mobility group.
If we update our ios on WLC do we have to add the certificate for AP's again or we don't need to do that.
View 4 Replies View RelatedSome time ago I updated a WLC, model 2504, from version 7.3 to 7.4.100.0. I also update the FUS (Field Upgrade Software) to the latest release, 1.8.0.0. Now I need to downgrade the WLC back to 7.3 version.
My doubt is: Can I just take the normal processes and downgrade the WLC back to 7.3, even with the FUS in version 1.8.0.0?

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 4 Replies View RelatedI would like to get it clarified, that Cisco WLC 2504 running the code ( 7.2.110.0 ) does support IPv6 or not ?
From Cisco Documents they are asking to enable IPv6 support under WLAN > Edit Page, and Enabling mulicast on Ethernet Multicast Mode under Controller > General.
But from the GUI am not able to find the above two field, Even in Interface i created under Controller > interface is not accepting IPv6 address. I am able to configure IPv6 ACL .
Is any deployment document is available to show different scenarios with configuration.

I am trying to TFTP an image to a Cisco 2504 WLC. The management interface is 10.1.1.1 /24 and I have my PC connected to a port on the WLC with the IP address 10.1.1.10. However, I still do not have connectivity between the PC and WLC.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am about to deploy a load of Aironet LWAPs into my organization. I've configured the WLC 2504 and have a couple of the APs working at our main site. I just needed to plug them in, and they worked perfectly, straight out the box. But I just want to know the following:
1 - will the same apply if I connect an AP at a remote site? Remote sites are on different subnets and connected via IPSEC. Will the remote APs just find the WLC?
2 - is there anything I need to set up especially on the WLC in order to make this work?
3 - what happens if the IPSEC connection drops?
My customer is seeing these Errors coming up on one of his 2504 WLC's (ver7.3) The MAC's and IP addresses Mentioned seem to be completely fictitious as the customers IP plan is way off these subnets and the vendor lookup tool cant resolve the MAC addresses.I can confirm that there is no conflict.I've seen them appear on other 2504's across his network on seperate occasions.

We have a WLC 2504, since a few months, it was working fine, we have a guest Wlan configure with web authentication and the DHCP scope for this in the WLC. The problem today is that its no redirecting the web browser to 1.1.1.1, we try it with 3 laptops and they recieve a correct IP from the DHCP but still can not get redirect to the web authentication portal. Have the default configuration Internal (Default).
In laptops we check the firewall, dont have a proxy activate and have google DNS.. 4.2.2.2 8.8.8.8. In fact this laptops connected to this ssid before.
Can I set up a guest wifi connection on my Cisco WLC 2504 if I already have WLANs set up inside my corporate network? I want to use port 4 and connect it directly to my ISP so that it is outside of the corporate network. I set up an interface with a valid IP from the ISP and created a "Contractor" WLAN to use that interface.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to configure WLC 2504 with the following setup:
- three WLAN SSIDs
- management/ap-manager interface on VLAN 10
- guest WLAN on dynamic interface VLAN 20
- main WLAN on dynamic interface VLAN 30
- WLAN for tablet and smartphone devices VLAN 40
At this point switch trunking is configured and three WLANs are mapped to three dynamic different interfaces. I can see all associated APs (which are on the same subnet as management interface on VLAN 10), and can ping each of the APs as well as gateways on L3 switch Catalyst 3750-x. Also, on the WLC interface I see that all WLANs are enabled and SSIDs are set to broadcast, all AP radio is in 'up' mode. DHCPs are configured on management interface and on all dynamic interfaces. L3 switch gateways all have ip helper-address pointing to main DHCP. 'sh vlan' and 'sh int trunk' commands on the connected switches show correct settings.
However, I see absolutely no any SSIDs to connect to on any PC or Mac computer I tested.
I was wondering if the 2504 has the lobby ambassador feature available. Customer requires temp username/passwords for guests managed through web gui. I couldn't find conclusive documentation it was included so I figured I'd check here before calling Cisco.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe are installing a 2504 with management on VLAN2. The management port is on interface 1 which is attached to a layer 3 3750. From other VLANs in the network we cannot manage the 2504 controller with the web manager. We are running the latest code, 7.2.103.0, since we are using 3600 APs. We have a TAC case open, but spent 3 hrs with them and they can't figure out the problem. TAC did some debugging and saw that the 2504 is ARPing for the address of the PC on the other VLAN instead of sending the packet to its default gateway. How to get success with the management interface on a VLAN and managing the controller from another VLAN?
