AIR-CAP702W local ethernet ports

Hi all,
The new AIR-CAP702W AP have 4 10/100/1000Base-T local Ethernet ports.
On the data-sheet it's written "for wired devices connectivity".
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/wireless/aironet-700-series/data_sheet_c78-728968.html
That's very good, but how do we manage the traffic on these ports?
Are we able to configure theses ports in access-mode with different VLAN-IDs?
So in that case the uplink of the AP should be in trunk-mode.
And where do we configure the ports of the AP, on the WLC?
Or is the traffic from the devices connected into these ports encapsulated into CAPWAP tunnel, like the wireless data traffic, and is terminated into the WLC(s)?
In that case, can we choose what port is associated to what VLAN/SSID on the WLC?
Or something else maybe?
Thank you for your help.
Jerome

The 4 x 10/100/1000BASE-T local Ethernet ports support half and full duplex mode, auto-negotiation, and MDI/MDIX Auto-Sensing. Devices you connect must support auto negotiation if you connect with another mode, say hard configured speed and so on. The port may not be enabled and depending on the version of code, for example 7.6.100.120 the initial release, the ports are not managed.
For now, (until more control is added in the software) all the LAN ports are locally switched, are mapped to the 702W VLAN, and do not appear on the Wireless LAN Controller or AP.
Initially, the ports are disabled and may be enabled manually via CLI.
This was done to minimize any security risks. Here are the CLI commands to enable the ports.
(Cisco Controller)> config ap lan <port id> <enable/disable> <AP-NAME>
(Cisco Controller)> show ap lan <port id> <AP-NAME>
(Cisco Controller)> show ap lan port-summary <AP-NAME>
Hope that helps.

  • Is there a way to know which Ethernet port will be used when running TCP Open?

    Hello.
    I have several Ethernet ports in my computer, and I am trying to write a VI that sends data from one port to the other (for debugging an issue).  I was planning on using the TCP Open and other TCP VIs, but the TCP Open does not seem to have an input to tell it which local Ethernet port I want to use.
    So, is it possible to specify which Ethernet port you want your TCP connection to be open on?  How about UDP?
    Thanks,
    AlejandroZ

    The TCP Open does have inputs for specifying both local and remote ports.

  • Is there way to share Air-Port Wi-Fi connection through ethernet port?

    I was wondering if anyone could help me out with this, I have wireless network in the building, and is there way to configure Mac Mini to share Air-Port Wi-Fi connection through ethernet port (feed Vonage adapter)?

    Have you actually shared wi-fi to ethernet on a Mac? I ask because it is not usually that simple, it is a more complicated configuration. Most folks who do it the way you described get a self assigned IP and nothing connects.
    See my comment here;
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12585788&#12585788
    I have a Vonage phone adapter and Vonage does not provide the info that you need to hand configure these boxes, I have tried in the past with the one I have with a US phone number from here in Mexico.

  • HT1941 trying to connect time  apsule to macbook air with the ethernet cable in the WAN port the airport utility doesn't detect it

    trying to connect time  capsule to macbook air with the ethernet cable in the WAN port but the airport utility doesn't detect it but when i put it in the LAN one it does but it doesn't let me configure
    any ideas?

    Isn't it fun trying to do things without an ethernet cable direct to the computer.. Apple sell a usb to ethernet adapter cable fairly cheap.. makes life a lot easier having something to do hard connections.. or as hard as usb can manage.
    Since you have to access the TC by wireless .. press and hold the reset button on the TC for about 10sec until front led flashes rapidly.. don't worry about the ethernet cable.. leave it disconnected.
    Now click on the airport symbol and join another network. The TC should revert to its home name.. which will be a combo of Time Capsule and its MAC address. There is no wireless security and you can do the setup.

  • Disable ethernet ports for local security?

    WLAN is secured fine, however somebody (guest) only needs to plug a cable in my AEBS to access the local net. Can configure the AEBS to achieve local security by disabling the ethernet ports or restricting allowed MACs on them?
    Internet access is done by a separate router via eth.
    On cisco it would just be a port shutdown...
    Thx in advance,
    Andreas

    coolstuffberlin, Welcome to the discussion area!
    No that is not possible.
    The only solution is to limit physical access to the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS).

  • Airport Extreme - creating a wired local network from a cellular hotspot without ethernet ports?

    Forgive the book I've written below, please. I generally think too much info is better than not enough... I'm looking for assistance and/or suggestions since I have been unable to locate solutions on my own so far. Searching this forum has found a great number of "sort-of" related things, but all of them so far appear to involve apple-only hardware or upstream network devices which have ethernet ports. Nothing that seems to match my situation enough to extrapolate out. Maybe I'm just using the wrong keywords. Anyway....
    I've recently moved to a particularly rural area with no wired internet access to speak of (well, I suppose there is dial-up, but... yeah). I've tried several different wireless varieties including satellite, the AT&T Elevate 4G hotspot and a service that used an EVDO-cellular solution(a sprint-based reseller).  The former had serious latency issues which I had predicted and so was right-out. The last had signal coverage problems which their maps did not accurately reveal. Their potential mitigation was to have me invest even more money into a super-mega antenna to be roof-mounted. And even that was an uncertain fix. The AT&T solution with the 4G hotspot has been AMAZING so far and I love it. Coverage is great, latency and bandwidth fantastic.
    I love it but for one exception, that is. Connectivity options.
    There is a particularly limited number of WiFi connections available and only a USB network adapter for a single computer. None of my wired-only network devices can connect directly and I have significantly more WiFi connected devices in general use than the device supports.
    I have an Airport Extreme that I was using as my primary connection point through a FiOS router at my previous home(and both the satellite and EVDO modems at the new place). Never had any problems with it when feeding its WAN port with one of the various routers' LAN ports. However, as has been evident by reading all sorts of posts here and elsewhere, having it connect via WiFi to the Elevate means that the ethernet ports are disabled. Not terribly useful.
    The Elevate has no ethernet ports. Only WiFi and USB network connectivity.
    The Elevate does not appear to have settings available to create a WDS network-- so it cannot be "Extended" via those methods, either, as far as I am able to tell.
    So these are some thoughts I've had. Before I invest the time and money into them(both of which are in extremely short supply lately), I'd like to know if anyone else has already solved the issue or can tell me definitively whether these ideas, or some I haven't thought of, will or won't work. Any helpful feedback or thoughts would be sincerely appreciated.
    Options I've considered, but are uncertain:
    -A Wifi/Ethernet or even ethernet-only router which has a USB WAN uplink(I've had a few bites on searching, but nobody seems 100% clear on the capability for the models I've located). I could plug the Elevate into that USB port and then from there I'm golden. If this is the best option, then can someone recommend a brand/model that they know will work in this way?
    -WiFi Access Point (Airport Express, maybe?) that will connect to the elevate via WiFi, and then use its single Ethernet port to serve as the APExtreme's WAN uplink. (I don't know if this will work at all, actually...)
    -Connect to the computer via USB, run some kind of network bridging software (which I don't know what the heck that would be) to bridge between the USB Network and the Ethernet port, then run a hard wire from there to the APExtreme's standard ethernet WAN uplink. This is going to be a "last resort" option since it involves software I'm unfamiliar with, even unsure of availability for Mac, and requires the computer to be running and configured properly at all times. Given the way my kids abuse a computer, I can't be certain of anything involving this option.
    -Some secret method of turning on WDS capabilities in the Elevate which would then allow my existing base station to become a second node in the chain. I really wish someone could tell me this is possible if only I'd push the right buttons. I see this is as the absolute best option, if it can be done. Cheapest, anyway.
    Current set-up:
    AT&T Elevate 4G hotspot
    WiFi connected devices(rotating since Wifi connection count is limited): Mac PC, 2 iPads, 3 iPhones, Apple TV, a Nokia mini-tablet, a Kindle fire, Wii, XBox 360, an old dell laptop issued by my office.
    Apple Aiport Extreme base station
    Wired connections: blueray player, television, satellite TV pay-per-view uplinky device thing.
    Please, tell me your thoughts?

    Had the same issue here.  Here is the best solution I have found so far:
    Hotspot + Pepwave Max On-The-Go (w/ Load Balancing) + Airport Extreme
    I have a VZW MiFi, but I believe this set-up will work with other hotspot devices.  I actually have 2 MiFi Hotspots with a monthly allowance of 20G each.  They are plugged directly into the Pepwave router (aka, tethered).  (Note:  you have to have the right cable to do this.  The one that came with my Hotspot was only for charging.)  If, for some reason, you cannot tether with your Hotspot device, you want a router that offers WiFi as WAN.  The Pepwave will do this.  The Pepwave is connected to my Airport Extreme via ethernet cable.  I have the WiFi on the MiFis and the Pepwave turned off.  So the only visible network is my Airport Extreme.  The Pepwave is essentially just functioning as a modem.
    I used to have a Cradlepoint, but I did not find it very user friendly--too complex for home use.  The Pepwave Max OTG is awesome.  I got the one with Load Balancing so it allows you to connect up to 4 cellular devices.  If you only need the one Hotspot, you can just get the cheaper Pepwave Max OTG.  The Pepwave allows me to run off one of the MiFis until I hit my 20G/month allowance, then it automatically switches to the other one.  That way I never max-out on my monthly data allowance.  Additionally, it gives you a real-time, hourly, daily and monthly running tally on data usage.
    The guys at the 3Gstore are excellent and can help you figure out the best solution for your situation.

  • Dual Ethernet Ports, and Air Port Wifi

    I have a early 2008 and 2009 Mac Pro and was wondering if there was a way to connect both ethernet ports and the airport wifi as one "adress" so i would essentially have 3x the bandwith for downloading/uploading, etc.
    This is in both Snow Leopard and Win XP Via Boot Camp

    You might start by reviewing this thread and associated links:

    Apparently it should be possible to link the ethernet ports together but not the wireless.

  • 300x AIR-CAP702W - how to manage config/templates

    I have a new installation of a WLC 8510 running 8.0.110
    Now we need to deploy 300x AIR-CAP702W that has 4 ethernet ports 
    We need special config for each of the ports - is there a way to template the install so we don't have to change each AP individually?
    let's say we need to change vlan assignment on one port over the 300 AP's 
    I don't see this in the WLC - and not able to find the relevant info
    - Benedikt

    To be able to make a bulk change like that you would either want to use PI and push a template down to the AP.
    Or
    You can use CLI commands. For the CLI you need the AP names but you can cut and paste the commands from an excel doc into the CLI.
    You can get the command structure for the CLI from the Configuration Guide here:

  • How do you make use of the 2nd Ethernet port on the Mac Pro?

    My Mac Pro's ethernet port connects it to the local network and the internet.
    Under what circumstances would I make use of the 2nd port?
    Are there any settings I'd have to set up in system preferences to make sure one is used for some things while the other is used for different things?
    I'm asking because we might be making some changes to our network. We have a printer with a Fiery RIP and I'm pretty much the only one who prints to it. I was wondering if we could/should set up a direct, dedicated connection so that network traffic won't bog down print jobs.

    The main use for that port today is to create a subnetwork for Internet Sharing. Software inside the Mac can act as a Router and provides new DHCP Addresses for the subnetwork. In general, the devices on the subnetwork would be inaccessible from anywhere else, due to Network Address Translation.
    If you are concerned about heavy network traffic, consider upgrading your Switches (not Routers) to Gigabit Ethernet speeds and using Jumbo frames. (Routers are not involved in peer-to-peer transfers such as Printing when no Address Translation is involved.)
    If you have an Industrial Router, you can combine the two Ethernet ports into one composite link for faster-than-Gigabit effective speeds, but it requires a special Router not generally available.

  • How can I add ethernet ports to a TC?

    How can I add additional ethernet ports to a Time Capsule for my audio system to have direct hard wire to the Internet?

    Go into any large computer store and ask for a switch.. 8 ports is usually the best value.. 5 is a couple to short and you lose one with the connection.. it is much better to plug all the items into the switch.. and just have one cable running to the TC from switch.. although that is not necessity.. it keeps speeds up for local LAN.
    eg. Netgear GS108, GS608
    TP-Link TL-SG1008D
    You can buy them from $30 or so now.

  • 1 Ethernet port

    Greetings,
    I just bought an iMac (had a dual processor PowerPC G4) and now find that it has only 1 Ethernet port. I have an Ethernet hub, but my Internet cable connection (comcast) doesn't work when it's connected via hub. Therefore, I have to use the iMac Ethernet port for cable, but also need it for the printer. Is there something like a 2-port Ethernet jack, like a double phone jack, available? I've Googled it, but may be using wrong terminology. Any help would be appreciated.

    <Edited by Moderator>

    I use Comcast cable for Internet broadband, and you can definitely use a router. No self-respecting ISP would deny the use of a router. It is possible that you need to upgrade your cable modem, if you have had it for a few years. Comcast should be willing to swap it out at no cost.
    A router acts like a single-purpose computer. It handles the connection to the cable modem and the ISP's network, taking the place of your computer (which often needs to run special software or have special settings if directly connected). With the router in place and handling the connection for you, your computer does not need to run any special software or have special settings; it is just part of the local network. You just need to set up the router with those special settings, as specified by Comcast for your area.
    I use an AirPort Extreme as my router. Previously, I used a cheap Linksys wired router (until it broke after a few years of good use).

  • Ethernet port dead- new logic board needed?

    The ethernet port on my 2010 iMac 21.5" died after a storm last week, so I brought it to the Apple store to have it checked out.  They said it needs a new logic board since the port is connected to it, which will cost around $700.  I can't see spending that much money to fix it, anyone have an ideas on where I could sell it for parts?  The guy I spoke to at the store said to give it a shot

    Is your wireless still working?  You could connect your Mac over Wi-Fi instead, if you still wanted to use the Mac, that is.  Or use a USB Ethernet adapter.  Apple sells one for $50 that was primarily for the Macbook Air, but will work with any recent mac.  But if you already have Wi-Fi, then I'd try that.  And if you don't have Wi-Fi, it still may be useful to try Wi-Fi first because even if the Mac's Wi-Fi doesn't work, you can still attach other computers or devices like iPads or iPhones, etc.  Whereas it would be a waste to buy the USB ethernet adapter only to find out that the USB ports on your Mac were also affected by the storm.
    Otherwise, as usual, you can always sell on eBay & Craigslist.

  • Dead Ethernet Port

    I bought this machine used (2 ghz Intel Core Duo). I always wondered why I couldn't get it to connect to the internet with an Ethernet cable. Now, by comparing it with my wife's MacBook, I realize there must be something wrong with the Ethernet port. The jack looks okay -- I can't see any damage, but the plug won't click into position when I push it into the jack. Even if I hold the plug in place with my hand, no connection.
    Three questions:
    1-I assume replacing the jack would require a difficult board-level repair. True?
    2-Is this a well-known syndrome with this machine?
    3-What would it take to get a physical connection to the internet via the Fire Wire or USB ports?
    Thanks,
    Tim

    It's me the OP, replying to myself, for the benefit of others who might have the same problem.
    The Apple store sells an Ethernet to USB adapter for the MacBook Air, which does not have an Ethernet port. It seems likely it will work with other MacBooks, though one can't be sure.
    According to user reviews on Amazon, the Cisco-Linksys USB Ethernet Adapter works on Macs without a driver.

  • Using 2nd Built-In Ethernet port for internet access?

    Hello,
    I have a Quad-G5 running 10.4.8. In its current configuration, all its network communications, including web access, go over the active ethernet port (Built-in 1).
    Does anyone know how I could use the second built-in port for internet access only? I'd like to route local traffic over the first port, but go "out" over the second.
    The machine is on a corporate network, and proxy access is slowwww. I have the ability to use a direct connect to the internet, but still need to be connected locally. Any thoughts? Many thanks . . . JD

    Easy. Go to System Preferences > Network > Network Port Configurations and drag the port connected to the internet to the top, so that it has priority over the port connected to your LAN. This prevents DNS time-out when loading a website, but still allows LAN traffic over the other port because that traffic is most likely going to use ARP rather than DNS. For good measure, you can add your company's domain (such as "my_company.lan") to System Preferences > Network > Internal_Ethernet > TCP/IP > Search Domains.

  • Built-In Ethernet port configuration "grayed-out" in "Port Configurations"

    Suddenly my "Built-In Ethernet" port configuration isn't clickable in Network Preferences' "Port Configurations" window. It's there but is "grayed-out" and the "On" clickbox won't take a checkmark.
    Also, it's not showing up at all in the "Show" pull-down (since it's not clicked probably?).
    My hub and modem are fine (i can connect to the internet with my wireless airport-laptop)except the "local network" indicator lamp on the hub where the ethernet cable is plugged doesn't light as it used to.
    I recently had to delete some files so maybe that's why?

    well, what wonders an exercise break can bring!
    I fixed the problem by looking on a backup disk for any files with the word "ethernet". I had done that on the local disk and didn't find anything of interest. But I did find these 4 files on the backup in a folder sitting directly on that external HD directory titled "System"inside of /library/extensions:

    AppleBCM5701Ethernet.kext
    AppleBMacEthernet.kext
    AppleGMACEthernet.kext
    I copied them into my local HD's system/library/extensions EURIKA! the built-in ethernet has returned and I was immediately on line without any further adjustments.
    The options that were missing as per my subject thread are all back.
    Keep this one handy!!!
