2504 Wireless Controller with multiple IP Networks

I am wanting to deploy a 2504 with 8 AP's that can support three IP networks simultaneously, 10.130.0.0, 192.168.0.0 and 192.168.1.10 (Guest Network).  I understand this is supported, but haven't really seen any examples of how to accomplish this.  Any suggestions?

Jerryard1,
Just a followup on what I was able to do. 
I have the 10.130.0.0 network on the management interface, port 1 with dynamic AP management enabled.  I then created a dynamic interface for the 192.168.1.0 network and have that on port 3, with dynamic AP disabled, both ports are untagged for VLAN's.
I then created a WLAN for each, but pointed the WLAN for 192.168.1.0 to the dynamic interface I created. The WLAN for 10.130.0.0 is pointed to the management interface.  All AP's come up on the 10.130.0.0 network.  Physical ports 1 and 3  on the 2504 are connected to it's respective switch stack.
I then enabled routing on their Sonicwall firewall to route between the two networks, all seems to work fine.

  • How do I configure the 2504 Wireless controller with AP?

    I recently purchase the 2504 wireless controller and the 1602i AP. I was able to do the basic setup of the controller and can now access the web interface, but the AP is not being detected and I am unable to add it.

    First of all: 1602 AP need minimum software version on WLC: 7.4.100.0
    paste this info:
    sh sysinfo from WLC
    sh version from AP.
    Did you create a DHCP pool for APs to get IP ?
    Try to to be keep AP and WLC on same subnet.

  • Question about 2504 Wireless Controller

    Hello,
    I am tasked with configuring a 2504 wireless controller.  Is it possible to assign an SSID to an interface that has dynamic ap management enabled?
    Scenario:
    Location1:
    1) 10.0.0.0/24
    2)192.168.0.0/24 DMZ
    Location 2:
    1) 10.0.5.0
    Both locations are routable using network 1 at each location.  However, I need to configure several access points and send them to location 2.  These access points will communicate with the controller at location 1 on network 1.  Two SSIDs will need to be on network 1 at location 1.  The other SSID will be on Network 2 at location 1.  This network is not routable. 
    Thank You for your help.

    So this is how you want this to be setup:
    Scenario:
    Location1:
    1) 10.0.0.0/24
    2)192.168.0.0/24 DMZ
    Location 2:
    1) 10.0.5.0
    Both locations are routable using network 1 at each location. However, I need to configure several access points and send them to location 2. These access points will communicate with the controller at location 1 on network 1. Two SSIDs will need to be on network 1 at location 1. The other SSID will be on Network 2 at location 1. This network is not routable.
    Since location 1 is a flat network with only one subnet (internal) and one in the DMZ, you will configure WLC management/ap-manger port 1 on the 10.0.0.0/24 subnet.  You can then map your SSID#1 to the management interface.  Create a new dynaminc interface on the WLC and assign it an ip in the 192.168.0.0/24 subnet and place that on port 2.  Connect port 2 to the DMZ.  Now since you want everything to tunnel back to the WLC from location 2, you would leave the ap's in local mode.  Devices in location 2 associating on SSID #1 will obtain an ip address in location 1 and tunnel back to the WLC and traffic will egress out of port 1.  Devices that associate in location 1 or location 2 to SSID#2 (Guest) will tunnel back to the WLC in location 1 and traffic will egress out of port 2.
    Since you want to tunnel traffic back to the WLC from location 2, you need to make sure your link has enough bandwidth or else the ap's will be bouncing.
    If you setup the AP's in location 2 in h-reap mode, then you can place devices that associate to SSID #1 on the 10.0.50.0 subnet.  Devices that associate to SSID #2 at location 2 will tunnel back to the WLC and egress out of port 2.

  • WAP321 & Aironet 2602e & 2504 Wireless Controller?

    Hello,
    I am new to Cisco networking. I am currently in an environment with no Wireless Controller and the wifi uses two Cisco WAP321's.  The company wants to expand the wireless and has bought a Cisco 2504 Wireless Controller and a Cisco Aironet 2602e Controller-based WAP.  My question is once we start using the controller can it control the formerly controller-less WAP321's or will that have to be replaced with another Cisco Aironet 2602e?  Thank you.

    My question is once we start using the controller can it control the formerly controller-less WAP321's
    WLC 2504 will not support AP321s.  Talk to your authorized Cisco reseller and see if they will accept if you trade-in the AP321 for the AP 2602.
    Make sure your AP 2602 have the correct regulatory domain.  If you are un-sure DO NOT open the boxes. 
    For more information, go here:

    Another thing, for AP 2600, your 2504 should have the minimum firmware of 7.2.110.X.  IF you don't have it, then talk to the authorized Cisco reseller who sold you the controller and kindly ask them (nicely) if they could download the correct firmware for you.

  • 3702e AP and 2504 wireless controller

    Hey,
    If I want to deploy a number of 3702e AP which support 802.11ac am I ok to use the 2504 wireless controller?
    Thanks,
    Jonathan

    I agree with Rasika's post about the minimum software you'll need, however, you say you want to deploy 3702e.  What is the antenna you're going to be using and how will the antennas be deployed. 
    Remember that you'll find some distinct limitation when you want to employ 802.11ac nowadays.  Your first quest is to find clients which can FULLY support 802.11ac.  Don't look at the ads.  I mean there are some smartphones and tablets who claim to suppport 802.11ac but if you look closely at the product specifications there is only ONE wireless antenna.  
    Your next hurdle will be your network.  Understand what bandwidth a single 802.11ac can push thorugh the ethernet cable.  Next multiply that by, say, three (three wireless clients associated to three different APs and all three running 802.11ac).  Now let's say all three APs are connected to ONE switch.  

  • Manually add Access Point to 2504 Wireless Controller

    We have a 2504 Wireless Controller and it works great!
    We currently have 6 Access Points (Aironet 1252) connected.
    We just added the sixth one a few weeks ago and with a properly configured and fully functioning Wireless Controller, it was super easy.
    Now, I have been assigned to add another Access Point, but at a remote site.
    The plan is to have up to three or more APs at this remote location and we want them to talk back to the Wireless Controller.
    We have plenty of licences on our current Wireless Controller.
    Do do not want to spend the funds for another Wireless Controller and more licenses.
    1. How does one manually add a Aironet 1252 to the 2504 Wireless Controller
    2. If the AP is on a different subnet than the Wireless Controller, how does one get it registered?
    3. The best for last: Can a Aironet 1252 talk to a 2504 Wireless Controller over a WAN link?
    If so, how?
    Thank you!

  • Newbie 2504 Wireless Controller Software Connection

    Hi Everyone,
    I've just placed an order for a 2504 Wireless controller and access point. My supplier has asked what software load I require? Can someone explain to me what the options are? Is he just talking about licensing or is it something else?
    Thanks for your help.

    Is he asking what software Version?
    Most people who have an existing Cisco Wireless infrastructure have a specific version of code running (not neccessarily the latest) so when ordering additional controllers they might be given the option of what code to run (6.0 vs 7.0 for example).
    If they are asking you what software version, I'd just have them put the latest 7.0 on it (7.0.220.0).
    Or are you buying the AP 3600? If you are buying the AP 3600, you must go with the 7.1 code.

  • 2504 wireless controller

    They gave us a configured 2504 wireless controller to reconfigure.  I was able to login via the console and issue "show run-config" and I got the IP address for the management.  I connected an ethernet cable to laptop and gave it an IP in the same subnet but unable to ping it or access the controller via http or https.  I have also attempted via ssh and no luck.  Any idea how I can access the controller to be able to tftp a file from it.

    Well you are able to access the wlc from the console which is a good thing. The issue might be the vlan assigned to that management interface. It might be tagged or it might be configured as a vlan id of '0' which is untagged. You need your switchport setup correctly in order to manage the wlc.

  • Anybody know a reseller that would download/sell a firmeware for 2504 wireless controller or what service to buy to be able to get it?

    anybody know a reseller that would download/sell a firmeware for 2504 wireless controller or what service to buy to be able to get it?

    Be aware that you do not need to purchase SmartNET for your APs.
    Thanks for the ratings, Marek.
    Be aware that nearly all 802.11n APs (some exclusion to AP1250) are covered under the new Cisco Limited Lifetime Warranty.  Read through the link provided.  This is why I posted that you do not need maintenance contract for the APs.  The main thing to understand is that if you need to RMA your AP, it'll take 10-business days for the replacement part to be sent.
    I have spoken to some Cisco Authorized Reseller and some Cisco TAC engineers who insist that the Cisco LLW don't exist or doesn't apply to BLAH model.  Don't be fooled.

  • 2504 Wireless Controller scalability

    Hi,
    In this data sheet I found two versions of the 2504 scalability: 50 and 75 AP. Wich one is correct?

    Luis                  

    this is a change that takes affect with 7.4 per the release notes.
    so 7.4 you can have up to 75 AP
    7.3 or lower you can have up to 50.

  • Cisco 2504 wireless controller forget username and password

    hi,
    i just want to ask how i can do password recovery with my wireless controller without erasing the configuration

    When you first configure the controller and reboot, you will see an option to recover the password.  This is a one time option and if the controller has been up and rebooted a few times, then the only other way to change or add another user so you can login is with Prime Infrastructure and the use of snmp. You can download that and install that in ESXi 5.5 and get an eval license.  Or you can dig around and search for an smnp mib that will change it.  That piece I don't know about:)

  • Cisco 5508 Wireless Controller with Splash Page Disclaimer

    How do one configure a splash disclaimer page on a Cisco Wireless Controller 5508 with no authentication?
    Jimmy

    There are many options to you in this scenario, but if you're looking to simply provide a splash page via the WLC without interacting with any other web servers, you can configure Local Web Authentication (LWA) as seen in this configuration example.
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/wireless-mobility/wlan-security/69340-web-auth-config.html?referring_site=RE&pos=1&page=http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/wireless-mobility/wlan-security/71881-ext-web-auth-wlc.html
    If you are not wanting the authentication, you can choose the "passthrough" method which will not require any credentials, only accepting an AUP or whatever you want.

  • 5500 Wireless Controller with 7.6.130 - IPv6 address

    Hello,
    We have configured ISE as the RADIUS for one of our SSID's. What we are noticing is a large number of clients are  getting assigned a ipv6 address.
    We are not sure what changed and trying to trouble shoot ? We do not have ipv6 enabled on our DHCP . Is this something the clients are reqiesting ?
    Do we need to change something on the Wireless Controller ? Appreciate your input.

    Disable IPv6 globally on your WLC. You can use below WLC CLI command to do this
    config ipv6 disable

  • Wireless Controller with 802.1x

    Hi.
    This may seem like a stupid question, but if i'm using 802.1x on my wireless network and using RADIUS/LDAP/ACS for authentication, do I need to configure any aaa commands on my access switches? It was my understanding that all traffic from the client is tunnelled back to the controller so this is not necessary?
    Thanks.           

    No commands necessary on your switches. Your WLC has radius servers configured and the WLC will communicate with your radius.
