1220B Wireless config for Hotel

All, We are
putting up some gently used 1220B Access points for a hotel. 4 per floor for 7 floors.
Can someone take a look at the config and see if there is any room for improvement? We want it as wide open as possible. Also, is it best to set the AP to use the "Least Congested Frequency" or better to set the channels manually?
Thanks in advance!

Yes. You can configure them individually.

Sample config for wireless

Hi
Does anyone have a sample config for standalone Cisco AP1252 (Cisco IOS) for AD Authentication for wireless ?
Appreciated your kind reply.

The short version :
in config terminal mode :
-radius-server host auth-port 1812 acct-port 1813 key 0
-aaa authentication dot1x eap_methods group radiusThen you need to configure your ssid for dot1x :-dot11 ssid -authentication open eap eap_methods-authentication network-eap eap_methodsThis is only the part needed for radius interaction. This assumes that you already configured your SSID with according WPA settings.that's about it I think.If you want info about more commands or so, just check out this link :http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/12.4_10b_JA/configuration/guide/scg12410b-chap11-authtypes.html#wp1002608

Wireless in the hotel. Ticketing system solution?

Hello guys,
It's not a first time when I heard about this.
Customer wants to have a ticketing system integrated with their wireless network for the guest users.
But as I know, Cisco has just "WebAuth" with LobbyAdministrator functionality. It's not the best choice.
What kind of systems do you use for hotels? Maybe you have any recomendations? Maybe any Free/Open source?
Also have you tried to do it with Cisco ISE?

The default gateway for the guest vlan should be the nomadix box. So all traffic gets handed to nomadix. The nomdix handles the who, what, where, when and how.
On the wlan side -- you keep it open. Nothing on the webauth .. open wlan, default gateway is nomadix ..
Can you add security on the wlan side. Yes, but then clients would need to know the key or logon name / password.
GUI wise.. Its been a bit since i played with it.. But it was like a 30 minute config and she was running ..

HP laserjet P1100 wireless connection for mac

Hoping for a quick response.... I have a Mac with 10.8.5 and I have purchased an HP Laserjet P1100 wireless printer. I have tried installing the drivers to print wireless...ly with no success. I have taken time out to type this message because I have not been able to find someone who has had the same issue in the internet. I need a walk thru because there are many steps where the issue may be occuring. Your written installation documentation conflicts with your User Guide PDF file. Cord or no cord during driver installation for wireless connection??? Was lost after #5 page 18 on the User Guide PDF file.
I figured it out. Your directions are misleading and not up to date. Cord is not an issue but needed for entire install process. At one point I'm in my system prefs then I'm on my web browser where I found Bonjour which added the network to my printer choices so now I can print wirelessly... hopefully I don't have to do that again because I'm not sure of the steps I took. Fairly complex set up.

Hey @matt4,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I see that you have a Mac OS X 10.8.5 and a new HP Laserjet P1100 series printer and are looking for quick and easy wireless configuration steps. I just have one question for you:
Do you have a P1100 or a P1102w?
What's my Model Number?
I'm going to assume that you have a Laserjet P1102w. The steps for wireless configuration of a Laserjet P1102w are a bit confusing on Mac OS X 10.8 as you need to use the generic Apple Airprint driver because there is no 'Full Feature Software and Driver' installation for that Operating System. In saying that, I will try my best to give you easy steps to reference should you need to configure your printer again on the wireless network.
How to Connect the Printer to the Network:
Step 1: Install the Generic Mac Printer Driver:
1. Turn your printer on
2. Plug your USB cable from the printer directly into your Mac
3. Click on the Apple menu, and then click System Preferences
4. Click Print & Scan and make sure your printer is in the list of available devices.
5. If your printer is not listed, click the plus () sign at the bottom left pane, click the name of your USB printer, and then click Add.
Step 2: Connect the Printer to the Wireless Network:
I've added the video above so you can view these step-by-step instructions.
Click the Apple icon (), and then click System Preferences.
Click Print & Scan.
Click Open Print Queue, and then click Printer Setup.
Click the Utility tab, and then click Open Printer Utility.
Click HTMLConfig.
Click the Networking tab, and then click Wireless from the list on the left.
Under Communication Mode, click Infrastructure, select your network SSID from the Available Network Names (SSID) list, and then click the << button.
From the Security Mode pop-up menu under Authentication, click WEP or WPA/WPA2. Your selection depends on the wireless security protocol your network uses.
Note: If your network does not have wireless security, leave the Security Mode set to Open System (No Authentication).
Type your WEP/WPA/WPA2 key in the appropriate field, and then click Apply.
In the confirmation box, click OK, and then close the HTML Config and Print Queue windows.
Step 3: Delete the USB connected printer, and then add the wireless connected printer:
In the Print & Scan window under Printers, click your printer name, and then click the Minus sign () to remove it.
NOTE: This removes the USB connection from the list so that the only entry for your printer is the wireless connection.
Disconnect the USB cable from the printer and the computer.
Under Printers, click the Plus sign ().
Select your printer name with Bonjour as the Kind, and then click Add
Once your printer is configured for Bonjour, if you have other Mac OS X computers that you want to use with this network printer you do not have to run all these steps again. You simply make sure that the other Mac computers are all connected to the same network that you have set your printer up on and just open Print & Scan. Under Printers click the () plus sign and select your printer name with Bonjour as the Kind, and then click Add.
You can reference all of this information in: Setting Up the Printer for a Wireless Network for the HP LaserJet Pro P1102w Printer
Let me know if these steps help clear up any confusion for you. Good luck!

Wireless connecting for laserjet Pro P1102W

I have a mac - no problem setting up the printer but I can't seem to connect the wireless component. I have gone into the systems and opened up printer - utility - everything is good but it won't let me put in the encrypted password for my network.

Welcome to the HP Forums dcfrk,
I see by your post that you are unable to setup the printer on the wireless network.
I can help you with this.
If the issue is that the HTML won't load, please follow these steps for 10.8 or lower:
Make sure Safari is set as the default browser. (sometimes the EWS won't open if it isn't set as the default)
Open Safari, across the top select the Safari menu, select Preferences, General, set as default.
Close out all applications.
You can access the HTML from this location:
On the Apple menu bar, click Go, computer, Mac Harddrive, library, printers, HP,Laserjet, P1100_P1560_P1600Series, open HTML config.
Go to the network tab, select wireless on the left side, select infrastructure, select network name, select the double
arrow button to move the network name over to the left side, fill in passwords, apply.
You should get a solid blue wireless light in about 1 minute.
Then go to the Apple, system preferences, print & scan, highlight the P1102w and click the minus at bottom left
corner to delete it, then disconnect USB cable, click the plus sign in bottom left corner and highlight the P1102w bonjour printer, beside Use: make sure it shows the proper printer name and not Airprint, (Airprint is a preinstalled Apple driver with basic functionality) click on the add button. You might have to click on the drop down to select your printer.
Test the printer.
Steps for 10.9:
Here is a Youtube video of the Laserjet P1102w wireless installation for Maverick.

Netcfg v2.5.2 - note: change in auto wireless config

This release brings a completely new auto wireless/wired configuration. The old net-auto is deprecated and no longer included. There are also some very minor configuration changes that may affect a few people.
Move to new auto-wireless/wired
The new automatic connection has proper roaming support and will prove more reliable than the old setup - particularly with more complicated wireless configurations. To migrate to the new automatic wireless setup:
1. pacman -S core/wpa_actiond
2. Set WIRELESS_INTERFACE="" to your wireless interface in /etc/rc.conf.
For example WIRELESS_INTERFACE="wlan0"
3. Add net-auto-wireless to your DAEMONS=() array.
Note: wpa-config profiles do not work with this, convert them to wpa-configsection profiles. An example is included in
/etc/network.d/examples/
The new auto-wired uses similar configuration - follow the above instructions except use the net-auto-wired daemon, and WIRED_INTERFACE configuration option.
New features:
- net-auto-wireless/wpa_actiond - Real wireless roaming/auto connection. Based on same principle as autowifi. Requires optional dependency: wpa_actiond
- net-auto-wired - automatic ethernet configuration. Requires optional dependency: ifplugd
- Interface configurations - set options for all profiles using an interface
- Output hooks
- Internal cleanup & improvement
Internal changes:
- Uses wpa_supplicant for all wireless configuration by default, including wep/none security. This adds improves support for most and should improve reliability.
- Uses iproute by default for all static configuration. net_tools which contains ifconfig is effectively obsolete and hasnt seen a release for over 8 years. The 'ethernet-iproute' and 'ethernet' connection types have been merged together to simply 'ethernet'. All options are still supported and existing configurations will continue to work for both types. A symlink has been made to ensure that profiles using 'ethernet-iproute' will continue to function.
Changes in configuration syntax
- net-auto and AUTO_NETWORKS is now deprecated in favour of net-auto-wireless/net-auto-wired.
- wireless: If you were previously specifying the wpa_supplicant driver in WPA_OPTS, you now need to specify it in WPA_DRIVER.
- wireless: iwconfig based configuration for wep/none can be used by changing to wep-old or none-old. This should not be necessary and is left in place only for the possibility of very old drivers that do not
support wpa_supplicant.
- ethernet-iproute: As 'ethernet' is now iproute based, those using 'ethernet-iproute' can revert the name. There is a symlink in place, so existing configurations of either name will continue to function
regardless.
- wireless-dbus: Unsupported. The wpa_supplicant dbus interface isn't particularly well documented and it doesn't fit well into the netcfg codebase. There is a symlink in place so that configurations using wireless-dbus will continue to function using the 'wireless' connection scripts.
Download:
netcfg 2.5.2 is in [core].

I continued to have difficulty connecting to my default wireless network, but I eventually figured out why. I seem to recall netcfg used to not care if a POSTUP command failed. I read somewhere that now it does.
So once I got that taken care of, I experimented with net-auto-wireless. It fails for me with no error message.
Being a bit of a tinkerer, I looked into the net-auto-wireless script. I found this line...
/usr/bin/netcfg-wpa_actiond "${WIRELESS_INTERFACE}" >/dev/null
...Removed the >/dev/null, and ran it again.
$ sudo /etc/rc.d/net-auto-wireless start
:: Starting netcfg auto-wireless mode for interface wlan0 [BUSY]
eth-xover
eth-hc
wifi-home

Line 22: WPA-PSK accepted for key management, but no PSK configured.
Line 22: failed to parse network block.
Failed to read or parse configuration '/tmp/wpa.wlan0/wpa.conf'.
[FAIL]
...And now that I think about it, I bet it's because I didn't set security="none" in the open network profiles.
...Yep, that was it.

Cisco ISE configs for switch

I suppose Cisco ISE sends a URL redirect to the switch and the switch presents it to the client in case of guest Access getting a URL redirect with User Acceptance Page (Wired Guests and not wireless).
My question here is, Do we need to configure http and https server on the switches (both supplicant and authenticator)?
I am sure it will need but just wanted a confirmation..
I have checked the configuration for supplicant and Authenticator switches for ISE and it has no where mentioned that part of the config.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/ise/1.0/user_guide/ise10_troubleshooting.html (a problem of URL redirection and possible cause is mentioned) ------- makes me sure that the config is needed.
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/lan/catalyst2960x/software/15-0_2_EX/security/configuration_guide/b_sec_152ex_2960-x_cg/b_sec_152ex_2960-x_cg_chapter_010000.html
(config of supplicant and authenticator switch)---- nowhere mentioned of the http/https config for both switches.

Yes, its needed. The http/s server within the swtich is used to grab the http user traffic and redirect the traffic to the CWA portal, or a device registration portal, or even to the Mobile Device Management (MDM) onboarding portal. .
ip http server
ip http secure-server
The info below I grabbed from Cisco ISE for BYOD and secure unified access book.
"Many organization want to ensure that this redirection process using the switch's internal HTTP server is decoupled from the management of the switch itself, in order to limit the chances of an end user interacting with the management intervace and control plane of a switch. this may be accomplished by running the following two commands from global configuration mode:
ip http active-session-modules none
ip http secure-active-session-modules none"

Can anyone recommend a good wireless router for both Mac and PC?

Hello! I am looking to purchase a wireless router, and was told that Linksys in general (and a specific model in particular) isn't Mac-friendly. I need a nuetral router that works well with my MacBook and my Dell laptop (which I need to purchase a wireless card for). I also have a PC but I can just connect it via Ethernet cable.
Any suggestion is greatly appreciated!
MacBook 1,1 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

hi - Linksys wireless routers work fine with macs (i
have one)...
perhaps the reason you heard they're not mac friendly
is because the software they give you to configure
the router only runs under wintel.... but you really
don't need that software...
one can have total control over the setup simply by
firing up a web browser (on a machine either directly
connected to the router via ethernet or w/ a wireless
connection) and going to http://192.168.1.1/
that'll get you talking directly to the router...
i'm actually not aware of any routers that really
don't work well w/ macs... so i think you can just
choose based on features & price...
cheers
p.s. Welcome to Apple Discussions!
I currently am trying to set up a linksys router. Unfortunately, I dont know what to do once i am at the router's config page to make it start working. Can you help me out? thanks.

My Bluetooth USB wireless transmitter for my portable BT speakers has quit working. Preferences says, "The selected device has no output controls", it used to work just fine. The internal and a pair of wired external speakers work fine. Can anybody help?

Just tested something and it worked.
If I put the headphones all the way in, the mac recognizes it as a digital output.
But if i don't put it all the way in, it recognizes it as headphones and works perfectly.
It's probably this crappy headphones.
If anyone has the same problem, try this out.

Please someone help! I'm completely stumped.
Thanks,

Mac Help says:
If you back up to a Time Capsule or network disk:
Open the Time Machine pane of System Preferences, and slide the switch to Off.
Open Time Machine preferences
Open Disk Utility, which is in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder.
Open Disk Utility
Make sure the Time Capsule or network disk is turned on and available.
Open a Finder window, select your Time Capsule or network disk in the Shared section of the sidebar, and click Connect. If necessary, enter your user name and password.
On the Time Capsule or network disk, select the disk or volume that contains Time Machine backups. Depending on how your Time Capsule is set up, there may be one or more disks or volumes.
Locate your backup, and drag it to the Disk Utility sidebar.You can identify your backup by looking for your computer’s name in the backup’s filename.

Config for Production client

Dear all,
I'm a new basis and now I'm working in big project ERP. I have a disturbed about config for Production client.
In scc4 we must set client role is Production and No change allowed for Objects. But in production some time we need do Open and Close Period, or change following business requirement, ... This is not allowed to do in Production client.
How do we config for Production client to cover this requirements ?
Do we need a config client for maintain Production client ? Example: Production client is 500, Config client is 100. When we need Open or Close Period or change anything, we do in 100 and transfer request to 500.
Thank you very much.
Regards,
Thanh.

You can customize transaction to be executable although the setting in SCC4 is "productive", this is accomplished by using transaction SOBJ:

You can theoretically put every customizing view there and make it "executable" in a production system.

Using the Mac as a wireless Bridge for the Xbox 360

Want to use your Mac essentially as a wireless adapter for an Xbox 360 or any console? plug in the ethernet cable between the two devices and follow the setup process!
Wireless Bridge setup process
1. Open system Preferences.
2. Clisk sharing, then the internet tab and select Airport as the “share your connection from” then select the Built-in Ethernet in the list.
3. Open up the terminal Application and type ifconfig en0 in the window it sohuld display an outcome like this
ifconfig en0
en0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 192.168.2.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.2.255
ether 00:16:cb:cc:80:aa
media: autoselect status: inactive
supported media: autoselect 10baseT/UTP <half-duplex> 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex,hw-loopback> 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex,flow-control> 100baseTX <half-duplex> 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX <full-duplex,hw-loopback> 100baseTX <full-duplex,flow-control> 1000baseT <full-duplex> 1000baseT <full-duplex,hw-loopback> 1000baseT <full-duplex,flow-control> none
4. This gives you the information of what your computer’s IP address is. On the xbox dashboard in the network setup screen select manual and select the top section which contains the IP address, subnet mask, and Gateway address, for the IP address, input the Highlighted section above plus one, so its 192.168.2.1 (this is for standard configurations, again, just add one to the last digit of your IP address.
5. Open Airport Admin Utility, the select configure on your airport. Then select the Internet tab This will give you your subnet Mask, input accordingly.
6. For the Gateway address, you are going to put in the value in the blue box. This is because you are using your Computer as a gateway, therefor you need to tap into its connection.
So For the Average setup you will use:
IP Address: 192.168.2.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway Address: 192.168.2.1
7. Now for the DNS server, this varies according to What internet service you have, but, Airport admin utility provides the answer, right below the information we used above, you will see DNS Server. viola! Put that in as your primary DNS server in the second box of edit options in the network menu.
Now you should be complete, test the connection and you should be Ready to Go!! Happy Gaming!

Welcome to the discussions, DanSwiggsD!
If you have a non-Apple device as your main router, unfortunately the AirPort Extreme has almost no chance of compatibility with your main router.
If you do have an Apple router as your main device, please post back with your model number and we'll let you know how your devices should be configured.
If you don't have an Apple device as your main router you have a few options to connect the xbox:
1) A pair of ethernet powerline adapters could be used if you did not want to run a regular ethernet cable from your main router to the xbox.
2) The new AirPort Express 802.11n model does have a feature called Proxy STA which should allow it to receive a wireless signal from any wireless router and allow the ethernet port to be enabled.

How to use the same services-config for the local and remote servers.

My flex project works fine using the below but when I upload my flash file to the server I doesn't work, all the relative paths and files are the same execpt the remote one is a linux server.

I think the problem is the line
        <endpoint uri="http://localhost/domainn.org/amfphp/gateway.php" class="flex.messaging.endpoints.AMFEndpoint"/>
but I'm not sure how to use the same services-config for the local and remote servers.

You are confusing "served from a web-server" with "compiled on a web-server". Served from a web-server means you are downloading a file from the web-server, it does not necessarily mean that the files has been generated / compiled on the server.
The server.name and server.port tokens are replaced at runtime (ie. on the client when the swf has been downloaded and is running) not compile time (ie. while mxmlc / ant / wet-tier compiler is running). You do not need to compile on the server to take advantage of this.
Hi Paul,
In Flex, there is feature that lets developer to put all service-config.xml file configuration information into swf file. with
-services=path/to/services-config.xml
IF
services-config.xml
have tokens in it and user have not specified additional
-context-root
and this swf file is not served from web-app-server (like tomcat for example) than it will not work,
Flash player have no possible way to replace token values of service-config.xml file durring runtime if that service-config.xml file have been baked into swf file during compilation,
for example during development you can launch your swf file from your browser with file// protocol and still be able to access blazeDS services if
-services=path/to/services-config.xml
have been specified durring compilation.
I dont know any better way to exmplain this, but in summary there is two places that you can tell swf about service confogiration,
1) pass -services=path/to/services-config.xml parameter to compiler this way you tell swf file up front about all that good stuff,
or 2) you put that file on the webserver( in this case, yes you should have replacement tokens in that file) and they will be repaced at runtime .

How do I use Airport Extreme to act as a wireless receiver for a Mac Pro?

Hello -
I'm trying to use an Airport Extreme (1st Generation) as a wireless receiver for a Mac Pro but I can't figure out how. My main modem / wireless router (non-Apple) is upstairs. My Mac Pro is down stairs. I'm looking to get internet connection for that Mac Pro downstairs. Is it possible to use the Airport Extreme to connect the Mac Pro to the wireless internet provided by my wireless router?
Thanks for the help.
Nathan

Is it possible to use the Airport Extreme to connect the Mac Pro to the wireless internet provided by my wireless router?
Unfortunately, Apple designed their routers to work with other Apple routers. It would be extremely unilikely that the AirPort Exteme could be configured to work with a router from another manufacturer.
The AirPort Extreme would need to be configured to "Extend a wireless network", but an error message is almost surely to occur when you try this.
There are other alternatives, but they would involve more hardware. Post back if you are interested.
