1300 Bridge VLAN support

Dears
i have two sites required to be connected using wireless 1300 bridge but There is 30 VLAN and i think that 1300 series support 16 VLAN only is it right ?. Please advice me if 1300 support more than 16 VLAN how to conigure it if not support then which mode support more VLANS.
Thanks

buy a pair of routers, and use the 1300's to provide the link between the routed interfaces, then you only have to pass one VLAN between them.
Then, if you're still desperate to get those specific VLANs to the other site, I believe you can do some magic with your routers to tunnel them inside your routed link.

Is it necessary to set the
encryption vlan 91 mode ciphers tkip
encryption vlan 150 mode ciphers tkip
so that all VLANs are crypted?
How can I examine that all VLANs are crypted?
Best regards
Michael Simon

No. As there is no SSID assigned to VLAN 91 and 150, I was by the TME (Technical Marketing Engineer) that the 1300 should use the encryption defined in the native VLAN (VLAN 1 in your case) to transport traffic on VLAN 91 and 150. I have not taken any wireless sniffer trace to verify it though.
There are a couple of ways to verify it:
1. a wireless sniffer trace
2. debug dot dot 0 trace print xmt rcv
Please be very careful when use option #2. Option #2 turns the wireless bridge into a wireless sniffer. If there are heavy traffic between the two bridges, the wireless bridges will crash. Please use option # 2 in test environment or limited traffic.

1522 Bridge & VLAN support

Hi Team
Can anybody tell me if a 1522 (or, I guess 1510) Mesh bridge can support VLAN tagged packets? ie Multiple VLANs on either side of the bridge. Is anybody using this in production?
Also is anybody using this with wireless clients on the MAP also?
My aim is to get wireless clients onto one VLAN, some remote wired workstations onto either the wireless client VLAN or a separate VLAN, plus a VLAN for the AP IP address (AP-Manager).
Thanks
LP

It allows the LWAPP access points to communicate with the controller via a Layer 2 (L2) or Layer 3 (L3) network. For the further description of the Cisco Aironet 1522 Lightweight Outdoor Mesh Access Point follow the URL :

Native VLAN over 1300 bridge

Does the BVI interface work on the native VLAN or always on VLAN1 on a 1300 bridge? If I set a VLAN other than VLAN1 for native will that move the BVI to that VLAN?
Also, does the native vlan have to match at both ends or does it only have local significance? If I had a point to multipoint bridge link, could one remote bridge be set for a different native vlan than another remote bridge?
I have a bridge link that carries two data vlan's and a voice vlan. At the remote end I only have a phone connected to the bridge directly and have configured the phone to be on the correct voice vlan but I need the computer to access a vlan other than the native. I know I cannot configure the phone to have the PC use the proper vlan as it just uses what the bridge tells it is the native.
All network equipment is managed in the vlan1, the native vlan, and user data is on another vlan.
Seth

You cannot configure multiple VLANs on repeater access points. Repeater access points support only the native VLAN.

1300 Bridge - Extending VLANs in Pt-to-Pt Mode

I need to set up 1300 series Wireless Bridges in a point-to-point mode, and I need to extend several VLANs from one building to the other.
On the 1231G/1242AG APs in AP mode, each SSID must be mapped to a unique VLAN ID. Is this also the case with the 1300 bridge?
Is there a good doc out there that explains how to config what I'm trying to do?

No its no the case, you can have several vlans going over one SSID.
Just create sub interfaces on the Dot1radio interface and Ethernet interface.
like this (this will pass the native vlan and vlan 2 and 3 ) -
interface Dot11Radio0.1
encapsulation dot1Q 1 native
no ip route-cache
bridge-group 1
bridge-group 1 spanning-disabled
interface Dot11Radio0.2
encapsulation dot1Q 2
no ip route-cache
bridge-group 2
bridge-group 2 spanning-disabled
interface Dot11Radio0.3
encapsulation dot1Q 3
no ip route-cache
bridge-group 3
bridge-group 3 spanning-disabled
interface FastEthernet0
no ip address
no ip route-cache
hold-queue 80 in
interface FastEthernet0.1
encapsulation dot1Q 1 native
no ip route-cache
bridge-group 1
bridge-group 1 spanning-disabled
interface FastEthernet0.2
encapsulation dot1Q 2
no ip route-cache
bridge-group 2
bridge-group 2 spanning-disabled
interface FastEthernet0.3
encapsulation dot1Q 3
no ip route-cache
bridge-group 3
bridge-group 3 spanning-disabled

1300 bridges trunking question

Hi all,
I have two 1300 bridges connecting two buildings. Both buildings are using native vlan. I only have one SSID and native vlan on the birdges. There is a L3 switch connecting to the root bridge and L2 switch connecting to the non-root bridge.
Right now, we are upgrading the network to support mutilple vlans. Do I need to make trunking on the bridges in order for the bridges to pass multiple vlans traffic? I already made trunking (802.1q) on both switches. But once I assign ports to access different vlan, I could not get dhcp address (except native vlan)if I am on the second building.
Any suggestion/comment?
thanks
Gene

Hey Gene,
I had a similar setup and the only thing you need to care about pretty much is that the native vlan in your bridges is the one assigned to the SSID which it linking those 1300 together... All the rest of the vlans at your switch will pass through the wireless link effortlessly... :)
Just try to be sure you are NOT restricting vlans at the switch port where you have your bridges connected.
If you need any assistance please do not hesitate in contact me... :)
Cheers,
Hery

AP 1300 Bridge Design/Change

I have a client w/ an AP 1300 bridged across two buildings (Building A Building B). Past history - Building A had Internet, Building B did not. The link was constantly going down, so it was turned off and both locations now have Internet. From time to time, Building B's Internet goes down (cheaper service) and would like to resurrect the wireless for failover. There is zero documentation and we found the Air-PWRINJ-BLR2 unit, but cannot find the actual AP unit without climbing into attics. Is this the unit we use to configure it? It has a console port - Also the IP's configured on the unit appears to be on the same LAN segment as Building A (192.168.10.250 & 192.168.10.251). I'd like to place both ends of the wireless bridge (Building's) into a DMZ port and static route route. How the heck can I accomplish this if the bridge is configured w/ the same LAN segments as Building A? I have a router w/ multiple ports ready to plug in.
I just need Building B to be able to access the Internet via Building A if their default Internet goes down.
Building A Network
192.168.10.0/24
Building B Network
10.20.190.0/24

Hi
yes the console port on the power injector is is console port for the AP. probably the best way to recover the bridge is to connect the 1310 to a laptops etherernet port and use the console port to learn the IP of the 1310 then manage the 1310 with the GUI it can be done with the CLI but if you have not done a wireless bridge before stick with the GUI. Both 1310's need to be on the same subnet, this is for management not for bridging. the bridging is at level 2 unless you use VLANS but with the routers that should not be an issue. once you have configured the Root router save the config and use it to to congigure the non-root router changing the IP address and the role to Non Root. plug the network cables into the the apropriate router ports and you should be set.
this is assuming you know the userid/passwords for the AP's the default was Cisco/Cisco.
if the antennas are alinged your bridge should be reliable.
based on the signal level between the AP's i would disable the B data rates use the G data rates and possibley disable the higher data rates if the radio stats show to many retrys, mor than 10%.

1300 Bridge fa0 port status down

I have a remote 1300 bridge whose fa0 port consistently goes down after working well for over a week. It shows the port as admin up but line status down - no carrier. It plugs directly into a 1200 ap. I have tried to hard code the speed and duplex but the option to hard code the speed is not available. Any ideas?

Security on Aironet 1300 bridges

I am a newbie on this fourm. I required your suggestions and recommendations. I have aironet 1300 bridges. I want to connect them in point to multipoint envt.
I want to have one root bridge and rest as non root bridges. But i want to implement authentication of non-root bridges through root bridge. Please suggest what is the latest and strongest authentication and security protocols that i can use. Please i am looking for an early response.

EAP Authentication type provides the highest level of security for your wireless network. By using the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) to interact with an EAP-compatible RADIUS server, the root access point/bridge helps another access point/bridge and the RADIUS server to perform mutual authentication and derive a dynamic unicast WEP key. The RADIUS server sends the WEP key to the root access point/bridge, which uses it for all unicast data signals that it sends to or receives from the non-root access point/bridge. The root access point/bridge also encrypts its broadcast WEP key (entered in the access point/bridge's WEP key slot 1) with the non-root access point/bridge's unicast key and sends it to the non-root access point/bridge.

Authenticating 1300 Bridges to WLSE Express

I'm curious how I can authenticate my 1300 bridges as a client to a WLSE Express.. The WLSE Express does have a built in AAA server and i've created the usernames, but, i'm not sure where in the 1300 I can assign it to authenticate to the WLSE..
My question I guess is, do I need to point these bridges to authenticate to the Root Bridge, and configure a RADIUS association between the Root Bridge and the WLSE Express? Also, where abouts on the Non-Root bridge (or Workgroup) do I configure this?
Any help would be appreaciated.
Thanks,
Jamie

Administratively Standalone - Active defines that this is the active WDS in WDS domain.
Active, backup, or candidate. If the state is backup, the command (show wlccp wds) also displays the current WDS access point's IP address, MAC address, and priority.
You can configure the WLSE 1030 internal AAA server to authenticate infrastructure APs.

Setting the time on 1300 bridges

stupid question, how do you set the clock on the 1300 bridges, specifically the 1310?

kieran
two issues
one the Cisco AP's do not have a clock like your PC if you set the time manually when the AP loses power or reboots the time is reset to the default and you need to set it again.
te]wo the better solution is to designate a time server for the AP to syncronize to.
either method can be configured by clcking services on hte WEB interface and then select NTP or SNTP depending on you IOS version. then entering the time server IP address in the proper box or typing in hte proper date and time in the fields below, if you select the time server method the date and time will be filled in automaticaly once the time is syncronized.

Need help on Aironet 1300 bridges

Greeting,
We have just upgraded two Aironet 1300 bridges (from cisco 350) on two buildings about 100 yards apart. They are only running as bridges. One is set up as root bridge and another one is setup as non-root bridge. Root bridge is in the main building direct connect to Cat 4506. For some reason the root bridge has some intermittant problem connect to the network. We are running the IOS 12.3(8). We changed the cable but the problem still occured. Everytime we have to reboot the root bridge in order to get it back. but all the interfaces in the root bridge show " up / up" prior to reload. The "show tech" looks fine on the root bridge. Any suggestion? Shall I change root bridge to workgroup bridge?
really appreciate for any helps,
Gene

Hi Steprodr,
I just need to clearify that the power injector is on the non-root bridge? I think the power are fine on both bridges when the problem occured. We used cisco 350 bridges before the upgrade. So the cable and port are still remain the same. The problem is more going towards from root bridge come back to Cat 4506 because both root and non root bridges can ping each other when the problem occured.
thanks,
Gene

1300 Bridge Speed Issue

I have two buildings that are only about 200 feet from each other. I have two 1300 bridges joining both buildings. This works great! The only thing that I notice is when I copy files from our file server in one building to my PC in the other building it takes 7 min for a 700M file, and I use a monitor and see that the wireless is only transfereing 2.4MPS off of the wireless interface. I have both bridges set to require 48MPS and 54MPS and all other is disabled. Why am I not getting the full 54MPS copying the file? The rest of my network is on gig switches.
Thanks

Hi Christopher,
Don't forget that the 54M numbers are really only theoretical and not a reflection of the true throughput,with the subtraction due to overhead the actual throughput is much lower. Have a look;
Approximate Throughput Comparison for 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g
802.11b Data Rate (Mbps)=11 Approximate Throughput (Mbps)=6
802.11g (no 802.11b clients in cell) Data Rate (Mbps)=54 Approximate Throughput (Mbps)=22
802.11a Data Rate (Mbps)=54 Approximate Throughput (Mbps)=25
From this good doc;

VLAN Support On Routers

I recently bought an 851 only to find out afterwards that it only supports 1 VLAN when I needed it to support at least 7. The documentation on VLAN support seemed pretty buried.
Does anyone know if there is an easy way to find out how many VLANs each router model supports? I dont' want to make the same mistake again, and I can't seem to find what I'm looking for by combing through the data sheets for each model.
Thanks!
Sorry, I meant to post this in the routing and switching forum and I can't figure out how to delete the thread.

Hi
A maximum of four VLANs are supported on the Cisco 870 Series with the plus feature set (Advanced IP Services/Advanced Enterprise Services) Cisco IOS. The Cisco 850 Series only supports one 802.1q VLAN.
