Cisco Wireless :: Difference Between WAP321 And AP541N?

May 21, 2012

I was looking for some clarification on the capabilities of these devices to allow roaming of clients between AP's.  Take a basic scenario of 3 AP's and a single SSID.  I know the AP541N has clustering which uses the Fast Client Roaming Protocol, which basically does a quick re-connect to the new AP.  Not quite as seamless as using aironet and a controller, but still pretty good. 
 
Question 1 How does the WAP321 handle roaming?  Obviously without the clustering feature you would have to configure each AP independently.  But after setting them up, would it support roaming in a similiar way to the AP541N??
 
Question 2 Would running three standalone Aironet 1141's operate any differently in terms of roaming?
  
In summary I like the roaming capability of the AP541N but hate the large clunky form factor.  I need something that can be mounted in an office environment (ceilings) that will handle easy client roaming.  A short disconnect isn't a concern as long as it reconnects on it's own.   Wireless controllers are a little out of the price range for this setup.

Cisco Wireless :: WAP321 Can't Connect Via Wi-Fi

Dec 5, 2012

I'm using two WAP321 with 4 VLANS
 
VLAN 100 - WPA PSK
VLAN 101 - WPA Radius
VLAN 102 - open (captive portal)
VLAN 103 - Management (no wifi)
 
Everything worked fine until I activated clustering on both devices yesterday. Since then, I can't connect via wifi anymore. I still have access to the management via ethernet. It seems like the wifi clients are not able to reach the Portal, Radius or DHCP Server anymore.

Cisco Wireless :: DHCP Not Working Via WAP321?

Dec 10, 2012

I have a RVS4000 witch I use as router, and DHCP server. I have a WAP321 witch I have configured SSID with one VLAN. Both devices have fixed IP address. I can connect computer to the wifi access point. But the computer cannot get an IP address from the DHCP server of the RVS4000. If I set the IP configuration manually, it can get an access to the network and Internet.
 
With another wifi access point it works, the computer get an IP address for the DHCP.
 
What should I have to do to make my DHCP server works with my wifi access point ?

Cisco Wireless :: SF100D-16P - Poe Switch For WAP321

Jul 19, 2012

Any Cisco small business switch that would be capable of powering five WAP321's? I don't know the power profile on these AP but have noticed that the Poe injectors pump out 16.8 MAX watts. I can't find anywhere what the power profile is on WAP321 AP but ~17 WATTS seems to me to be quite high.
 
In fact, I was interested in the SF100D-16P which has a power budget of 64W over 8 ports... the price range is in my budget.
 
Does the SF100D-16P can power 5-6 WAP321's sufficiently?

Cisco Wireless :: WAP321 Captive Portal And IOS 6

Oct 1, 2012

Our iOS6 devices cannot connect to our Cisco Wi-Fi access points using our guest network settings, which involves a captive portal where they must enter their email address. When they select the guest network, they get the screen shown at the bottom of the screen. Prior to iOS6, they'd get the web page where they enter their email address and accept our terms of use. This is happening both on upgraded devices and iPhone 5 devices. We haven't changed anything with the access points.

I was expecting to receive the error message as content of the E-Mail Alert.

Cisco Wireless :: Workgroup Bridge Between WRVS440n And WAP321?

Dec 4, 2012

i am trying to expand the wifi range of my WRVS4400n. Since the WAP4400 is'nt available i got me a wap321, since it was mentioned as recommende replacement. However i am having trouble in getting the bridge to work.First i tried to use WDS but this only killed my WRVS4400n and i am now trying the Workghroup Bridge mode on the WAP321.
 
On WRVS4400n i have enabled WDS and have tried both auto setting and Manual without any difference I am stuck with this status on the WAP321:
 
Network Interface Status and Statistics VLAN ID Name (SSID)  
WLAN0UPSTRM  Disconnected  1  myssid   
WLAN0DWSTRM  Up  1  myssid
 
It is the Infrastructure Client Interface setting that fails, i've tried both None and WPA pesronal Security setting with same result: Disconnected

Cisco Wireless :: WAP321 Not Passing IP Address To Client

Mar 20, 2013

Our brand new WAP321 is configured manually because the setup wizard would not complete, just hangs at the end.
 
Anyway, when a client connects to the AP, it cannot get an IP address.  It is able to connect to the AP but does not pickup an IP from our internal DHCP server. I've been up and down tthe config screens and even tried hard resetting the AP and starting from scratch to no avail. This happens with 2.4Ghz and 5 Ghz modes.
 
I've tried laptops and smartphones with the same result.

Cisco Wireless :: Cannot Get WAP321 Guest VLAN To See Internet

My company has an RV180W Router, a SGE-2000 Managed Switch, and a WAP321 Wireless Access Point. I have about 12 users on a Windows 2003 Server Standard, completely updated. My Win box is my DHCP Server. Now I am running two VLANS, Vlan 1 (default) the main vlan is where the Win box is on. Vlan 5 (guest Vlan) uses the RV180W as the DHCP server.
 
-Vlan1 is 192.168.1.1-254 - Issued by Win box
-Vlan5 is 192.168.2.100-254 - Issued by RV180W

Cisco Wireless :: AP541N - No Access Or IP Address

Feb 12, 2013

I have 2 AP541N access points. Have been working well for a couple of years. Later last year they just dissapeard from CCA one day. COundt access them but they were still delivering 'wireless' so to speak I have recently put them back to defaults to try and get them back in to CCA. i had one, but not the other. They would work fine via GUI/web access.Then i updated them to 2.0.4 (both images) and since doing that i have no access to either of them via any form.

Cisco Wireless :: Misconfiguration Of Management ACL On AP541N-A-K9

Nov 20, 2012

I mistakenly mis-configured "Management ACL mode" on my AP541N.
 
Administration>Administration Access Control>Managment ACL Mode
 
I set this to "Enabled", the problem is I only entered 1 IP address, and that IP address is the SAME IP as the AP's own internal interface.  I was not thinking and entered that IP out of habit when I meant to enter my workstation's IP.  The FW does not have a safeguard against this.
 
So, as you can see, this is a big problem, because now I have completely cut off all access (That I can think of) to the router.  I can never access the AP as that IP because if I set my workstation to that IP, 1) There will be an address conflict, 2) My computer won't route traffic to the AP out its NIC because it recognizes that IP as itself.

Cisco Wireless :: AP541N Drops All Clients?

Jun 20, 2010

As I posted about in the other AP541N thread about degraded performance, mine did a strange client disconnect last week. It dropped all authenticated clients, but they all thought they were still connected. A quick disable/enable of the wireless card on the laptop would get the computer back on the AP.
 
This same thing happened again today.
 
Device information and configuration:
Device: AP541N
H/W: V01
