Cisco Wireless :: WLC4400 - Switching From One SSID To Another?
Mar 8, 2010
on my wlc4400 when i want to move from one SSID (PEAP for eg) to another (Guest Open for eg) i have to : - disconnect from the 1st SSID (no trouble at this stage)- try to connect to the 2nd SSID ... cancel it (or wait for a long time it will stop)- try to connect another time to the 2nd SSID .. and now it works We are using windows client. The trouble is the same with all the cients.
I'm setting up a new 5500 (Software Version 6.0.188.0 ) and i have a similar trouble (but more important I want to move from the entreprise SSID (PEAP) to Guest (Open) I have to : -
Disconnect from the entreprise SSID (no trouble at this stage)- try to connect to the Guest SSID ... cancel it (or wait for a long time it will stop)- try to connect to the Guest SSID ... -> DHCP assignement waiting ... and fail- try to connect to the Guest SSID .. and now it works
I want to move from Guest (Open) to the entreprise SSID (PEAP) i have to : -
Disconnect from Guest SSID (no trouble at this stage)- try to connect to the entreprise SSID ... cancel it (or wait for a long time it will stop)- try to connect to the entreprise SSID ... -> Sometimes it works ... sometimes the client display "not connected" very quickly- try to connect to the entreprise SSID .. and now it works?

I have had our WLC4400 in place for around five years. No configuration changes have been made to it or the 32 LWAPPs connecting to it. We have begun to have some spotty issues with client devices. The error message says they are unable to obtain an IP address. After they wait a few minutes, they connect. We have plenty of DHCP addresses available. We have 25 locations with at least one AP and the problem seems to be system wide. One person can connect and the person beside them cannot. Many say they have been connecting to our library wireless for a long time with no problems.

On my wireless network, I am running guest access that I want to have as authenticated. If I enable WLAN, security, layer 3 web policy, when an iPAD / iPhone connects, they get directed to the Web Auth splash page, on where they must enter username & password. My users do not want to be directed to this page everytime they login - just select the SSID and connect - is there a way of authenticating guests via a WLC4400 without going through the splash page everytime?

I configured a 2504 controller with two LWAPP Access Points, and I'm using two SSID's on the same controller, the problem is when the user tries to switch between SSID's he gets an error message saying that the other network is unavailable but if he disconnects from the first network and then connects to the other it works fine !.

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

I'm working with some 891W's that have the internal 800-series AP. I have this router set up initially using Cisco Config Express, then, using Cisco Config Professional 2.5 I set up the firewall and other featuress that CCE doesn't do. Overall this is a very simple router, meant to be a small business Internet gateway device but is currently in my lab.
The intended WLAN setup is very simple. One SSID, with broadcast enabled, using WPA2-Personal. Auth: open Encryption is both TKIP and AES-CCM.
However no matter what I do I cannot get thhis thing to broadcast . In the past I had sometimes run into issues where if I had more than one AP running independently it would cause a channel conflict and one or both would cancel each other's radio, so I disabled all other AP's in my vicinity.
Also I've had issues in the past where f I enabled both TKIP and AES, sometimes clients can't find the AP as a result. My solution had been to disable one of them leaving just the other - no change here however.
Via the IOS, ssid config shows mbssid guest-mode which I believce is default.
Interestingly, if I do the following:
ap# Config t
ap(config)# dot11 ssid <myssid>
ap(config - ssid)#guest-mode
end
I end up with both "guest-mode" and "mbssid guest-mode" in the sh run for the AP, and voila, my AP broadcasts the SSID. However clients end up joining without any security at all, no prompts for pre-shared key or anything.

i have a simple router on a stick config which is providing dhcp to a customer SSID. however i don't want employees to stay on it and eat the band width since its open. the lease is set to an hour, is there anyway that i could set it so that once your lease expired it can't be renewed for 4 about 8 hours? I am using a cisco 2600 router in this setup.

I created a second VLAN and a second SSID. My problem is that from a PC on the native VLAN 1 I can ping the IP of VLAN 2 192.168.2.254 but I cannot ping any other device that has connected to the second SSID. How do I get routing to work between the two VLAN? I thought it would be automatically setup when I created the second VLAN using Cisco Configuration Professional?

We have a pretty good sized church and gym and we're thinking about getting three 1041n to cover the whole area. If we setup all three exactly the same, with the same ssid and password, but just put them on different channels, will our devices automatically hop from ap to ap as we walk around? Is there anything special we should do to make them work better together?

Wireless Equipment
D-link DIR-655 router set to only N
Old Netgear Router used as access point set to only G (I set up as an access point by turning off DHCP, changing the IP adresss and set to only G.)
Wireless Printer (only G Capable)
Cell Phone (only G Capable)
2 Laptops (both N capable)
iPad (N Capable)
Roku Media Box (N capable)
Problem: If I put the router and access point on the same SSID then equipment that is N capable will connect to the G network.If I use two different SSID's then the printer is unreachable.Is there a way of either (a) having two SSID's but allow the printer to be seen or (b) having one SSID, with separate access points for N and G but not allow N functioning client to connect to the G access point.

I'm trying to setup 2 VLAN's 1 for Native Traffic on my Corp network and another VLAN for Guest Wireless traffic. I have attached the Config from my Cisco AP1231 and my Cisco 3750. I have the AP plugged into port 24 on my switch. I seem to have the VLAN's working fine. I can get the AP1231 to broadcast both SSID's and the very first time i can connect everything seems to work fine. after i power down my switch and AP i cannot connect to either SSID. I get the message Not Connected.

I have setup'd two 1142 AP's as mesh.The sceneario is like this:
MAP ------ RAP---------SW----------Router
I've done all the configuration through my WLC (Flex7500) and the mesh neighborship is up.The problem is not the MAP nor the RAP broadcasts my SSID.I've joined them to the same SSID and nothing.

I can't configure the SSID more than one in the web UI of the WAP4410N. Except I can type the first SSID1, the rest SSID2 - 4 are grey which not allow me to type in anything. ( See attached the screen shot ) My current version is 2.02.1 and I was using IE8 under windows 7.

I have a 4410N set up on my network. I'm using 4 VLANs on my network, of which, I use my default VLAN 1, as the "public" VLAN which we use to give our clients free WiFi. I would like to have two SSIDs visible from the access point, one unsecured and connected to VLAN 1, and the other secured with WPA2 and connected to our office VLAN on which various servers and resources are available. My preference is for both SSIDs to be visible, as there is not a major security issue and as the only IT person, I do not have time to configure every computer which uses the network with the SSID, but I'll do that if I have to.
I set up the 4410N with it's first SSID using our public WiFi name and did not put any security on it. I went to the VLAN page and set it to use VLAN 1 as both the default VLAN and the VLAN for the first SSID. Then I went back to the Basic Settings page and added a second SSID and chose "Enabled". I went to the Security page and left most things as default (Wireless Isolation between SSIDs is enabled) and changed the security settings for the office SSID to WPA2-Personal. Finally I went to the VLAN page and set it's VLAN to 4.
When I go back to my computer, or from other wireless devices, I only see the public SSID, not the office. I do see on my computer (Win7 x64) an "Other Network" option, but the signal strength on that network is significatnly weaker than that of the public SSID. Also, if I try to connect to it using the office SSID name and the password I set, it doesn't connect.
Am I completely misunderstanding how multiple SSIDs are supposed to work? I am working from a lot of assumptions here.
PS I have no clue if this would affect it, but in the interest of listing all possible factors, the 4410N is powered via PoE and the switch port it is connected to is set to 802.1Q with 1-4 set as the VLANs.
After posting this I discovered that in the Wireless Status page, both SSIDs are listed, but only one (the public SSID) has a MAC listed. I assume I need to add one somewhere. Where should I do this, and what's a "safe" MAC to use that won't conflict with anything?

I have an issue where I have an AP in one room and another in another.When I walk from one room to the other, I lose signal but manages to see the SSID and join.But, I cannot seem to surf the Internet, I have to manually disconnect and reconnect. Normal wireless routers I reconnect seamlessly without any manual disconnect & reconnect.Currently using cisco 5508 and ap2600.

we have two offices in same city at different location however we are planning to bring both the office at same location.Now lets say site A has controller 5508 configured with 24 AP's with 10.10.10.x subnet for internal SSID and Site B which is shifting to Site A campus has different subnet ( 10.10.20.x ) for same SSID.Site B has no controller since they had connection with H-reap and they were using different subnet for internal SSID ( 10.10.20.x ) .....Now i need to add their AP's in Site A controller which will be extended wireless LAN however we would like to keep same subnet ( 10.10.20.x ) what Site B has for wireless clients which is really confusing me ....I have already client subnet for site A with 10.10.10.x /24 subnet and nearly 200 users are already using this wireless client subnet.... How do i add their ( Site B ) subnet / 10.10.20.x with same SSID configured which is globally only one SSID ?
limitations :I can not create new SSID for site B since same will be broadcasting even in Site A AP's ?Is this possible to map one more subnet of site B to existing SSID with already different subnet ( 10.10.10.x ) ?

I have an issue where I cannot get clients to change SSID. I have two SSID, one WPA2 secure, one open guest. The secure is locally switched via Flexconnect and the guest is centrally switched. Both of them work. I have been able to test this and both work as intended. The problem is that once you connect to one of them, either secure or guest, you cannot then change to the other. The only way to change is to delete the dhcp entry from the scope and then do it.
Fast SSID change is enabled. I also have debug client output from when the client fails when you try to switch which I will include below. I also pulled some wireshark captures and those show me that the DHCP ack packets are trying to give the client the ip address from the incorrect/previous scope. So basically it's like FAST SSID change is not working and the client is never being disassociated properly??
I am totally stumped and even though the client will most likely not be switched between SSID that often I would still like to know the solution.

I have a wap4410n acting as AP and a second wap4410n acting as wds repeater.
I've only managed to get the wds repeater to work when it has a different ssid to that of the ap - I'd like the wds repeater to have the same ssid as the ap, should things work in this configuration?

I recently installed a Hawking HW2R1 Wireless Repeater to extend the range of our network in the office. Is there any way to set it up so that the signal it's broadcasting has the same SSID and WPA key as the primary network in the office without causing a conflict? Ideally someone would be able to walk from one end of the office to the other without having to disconnect from Work1 and connect to Work2.

Several days ago I had to change my router. The new one works OK except that I can't get the PC to link into the wireless while the SSID isn't being broadcast. Having read that it is a good idea not to broadcast the SSID for security reasons, I thought I would try it!
I am running Windows 7 home Premium and the router is a Draytek Vigor 2710 using WPA2. I can see the network when the SSID isn't being broadcast, it just refuses to connect to it. As soon as I switch on the SSID it connects like a dream.
