Bridge with clients & multiple VLANs on 1242 AP

Hi,
I am trying to set up a test as per the attached diagram. I am looking to use 2x 1242 access points to bridge to a remote part of the network.
I currently have 2 VLANs on the network, all network devices are on VLAN 1 for management and client access is on VLAN 2.
What I am trying to achieve is to bridge between the two access points and also have clients connect to VLAN 2 on each access point.
Firstly, are the 1242's capable of this or would I need to look at a 1300 Bridge?
I have attached a copy of the base config I have on both AP's, the only difference between them is the root or non-root role.
My bridge link currently works and I can ping across it on VLAN 1 but I cannot get a client to connect to the SSID on VLAN2. Although the SSID is set to guest mode I cannot see it being broadcast and if I manually try and connect nothing happens.
Is there anything basic I am missing here or can anyone offer advice on bridging multiple VLANs with 1242 AP's?
Thanks,
Paul

Ooops....forgot to add the attachments first time.

Paul.

Encrypting Aironet 1410 bridge link using multiple VLANs

I've looked at the documentation available for Aironet 1400 series, and still would like to see a single document showing an example of
the best encryption/authentication available for bridge links using multiple VLANs.
As I understand it, 1400 series can support WPA-PSK using AES, which would work for me. I just can't picture how to integrate chapters 9 and 10 for the 'WEP and WEP Features' + 'Configuring Authentication Types' instructions.
I'm looking either for an example config, or a step-by-step that did all steps consecutively.
Thanks

What doc are you refering to? If you want to encrypt the link from root bridge to non-root bridge, then WPA/TKIP-PSK is what you should use. Here is a link to how to setup your link ssid to WPA: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/bridge/1400/12.2_15_JA/configuration/guide/p15auth.html#wp1044935
Don't worry about the example they show on the WEP, just use the configuration from the above link for your encryption.
Configuring a VLAN
Configuring your bridge to support VLANs is a five-step process:
1. Create subinterfaces on the radio and Ethernet interfaces.
2. Enable 802.1q encapsulation on the subinterfaces and assign one subinterface as the native VLAN.
3. Assign a bridge group to each VLAN.
4. (Optional) Enable WEP on the native VLAN. <-- Use WPA-PSK
5. Assign the bridge's SSID to the native VLAN.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/bridge/1400/12.2_15_JA/configuration/guide/p15vlan.html
Here is an example of vlan 1 (native) will be your management and your wireless link. vlan 10 & 20 will pass through the link.

Configuring Bridge Priority Of Multiple Vlans (Odd/Even)

Upon applying Vlan Bridge Priorities through STP, will there be a delay on the Production network in order for the respective vlan to go into a forwarding, learning,listening state, or will the change be transparent to the Production Network? Currently the Vlans on our production 6504s do not have Bridge priority applied to them, we are looking at performing this step, but obviously need to know what the ramifications will be. Please advise. Thanks

>> If the root will change from the current root expect a network wide service interruption as the switches will have to re-calculate the path to the root. The STP state will take 15 sec for each stage so, that comes to 45 secs. But expect a likttle more on the edge switches, how much more? That really depends on the size of the network and how long it takes for the BPDU to travel down the tree. It is always recommended to have a maintenance window when tweaking the STP.

Multiple SSID With Multiple VLANs configuration on Cisco Aironet APs: Assotiated clients cannot obtain IP addresses

Hi Surendra,
I was just given this task to see how i can configure a second ssid for guest access in our environment.
this is our network setup prior to this request: Internet----Firewall (not ASA)---ce520---C1131AG and CME router is also connecting to the ce520 switch. we only have two vlans: one for voice and two for data.
Presently, there is no vlan configured on the AP because it on broadcasting ont ssid and wireless users gets IP from a windows DHCP server on the LAN. the configuration on the ce520 switch port for the AP and other switches say access vlan is the DATA vlan which automatically becomes the native vlan for all trunk port connecting the AP and other Stiches to the network.
Now with this new requirement, i have made my research and i have configured the AP to broadcast both the production and the guest Vlans. The two vlans are 20-DATA and 60-Guest. I made the DATA vlan on the AP the native vlan since the poe switch is using the DATA vlan as native on the trunk ports. I configured the firewall to serve as DHCP server for the guest ssid and i have added the ip helper-address on the guest vlan interface on all switches while the windows server remains the dhcp server for the production DATA Vlan. I have confirmed that the AP, switches can ping the default gateway of the guest dhcp server which is another interface on the firewall. I can now see and connect to all broadcasted ssids but the problem is I am not getting IP addresses from both the production dhcp server and guest dhcp server when i connected to the ssid one at a time.
My AP config is attached below.
Please tell me what am I doing wrong.
Do i need to redesign the whole network to have a native vlan other nthan the data vlan?
Does the access point need to be aware of the voice vlan?
Do the native Vlan on the AP need to be in Bridge-group 1 or can i leave it in bridge-group 20?
I will greatly appreciate your urgent response.
Thanks in advanced.

Hi,
As far as i know we dont set the ip helper address on the radio interface. It should be on the L3 interface of corresposding VLANs i.e.
int vlan 20
ip helper-address 192.168.33.xxx
int vlan 60
ip helper-address 130.20.1.xxx
I'm assuming that your using SVI's (int Vlan 20 and int Vlan 60) rahter than physical interfaces. Also hope you have configured switch port as trunk where this AP is connected.
Modify the AP config as below since you are using data vlan as the native vlan
interface Dot11Radio0.20
encapsulation dot1Q 20 native
interface FastEthernet0.20
encapsulation dot1Q 20 native
Ideally your AP fastethernet configuration should looks like below and not sure how you missed this as this comes by default when you have multiple vlans for multiple ssids.
interface FastEthernet0.20
encapsulation dot1Q 20 native
no ip route-cache
bridge-group 20
no bridge-group 20 source-learning
bridge-group 20 spanning-disabled
interface FastEthernet0.60
encapsulation dot1Q 60
no ip route-cache
bridge-group 60
no bridge-group 60 source-learning
bridge-group 60 spanning-disabled
Hope this helps.

Bridging multiple VLAN with sg 200-08 and wap321

Hi all
Equipment:
ASA 5505
2x gs 200-08
2x wap321
Is there a possibility, to bridge 2 VLAN between one and another side with two WAP 321 and use the AP's also as WDS Bridge to extend the Wireless Network?
I need to extend the Range of the WLAN but also want to use 2 different VLAN on both sides of the network. There is no Possibility to establish a wired Connection, so i try to use the AP's in "workgroup bridge" mode, but i always can use only one VLAN on the other side.
Thanks for any help

Hi Luis
The Problem is, there is no wired connection between the WAP321.
The topology is like this:
VLAN1------ASA5505-- --SG200-08---------WAP321             WAP321--------SG200-8-------VLAN1
                                             I                                                                                                 I
VLAN2---------------------------                                                                                               -----------VLAN2
VLAN1 and VLAN2 are also available in the WLAN on 2 Different SSID's:
SSID: inside -> VLAN1
SSID: outside -> VLAN2
If i understand the Cluster mode right,there is a wired connection required between the WAP321 .
In meantime i tried to connect the WAP321 over WDS, but always only VLAN1 is available on the "right" side of the Network.
Is there a Possibility, to Bridge multiple VLAN's over a WDS connection?
Best Regards
Dominique

AP1300 Bridging Multiple Vlans with Dot1q

I have a pair of AIR-BR1310G-E-K9 to do ptp bridging. Topology is like this:
host-switch-rootAP---nonRootAP-switch-host
We have multiple vlans and have followed this doco:
<http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/1300/12.3_7_JA/configuration/guide/b37vlan.html>
The native vlan is all good and can ping across end-to-end. However, the when I attach a host to the switch in another vlan i.e. user vlan - there is no connectivity. Essentially, we want to dot1q over the ptp bridge setup.
running version:

Bridging problem with multiple vlans

Hello Everyone, I am using two 1310 bridges in a root / non-root setup. The switches on both sides of the wireless bridge were setup to trunk native vlan 253. Each wireless bridge also had vlan 253 setup as a Radio and Ethernet Interface. In this config, the wireless bridges could associate and ping each other, but the switches on each side could not ping each other?s management vlan interface (Vlan 25). The only way to get traffic to pass to the corresponding switches on each side of the wireless bridge was to use vlan 253 for everything. We also see this problem with some of our other 1310 bridge connections at other plants. Has anyone seen this problem or a similar problem before?

Hi Craig,
Er, dunno if you have any insight on my issue. I'm trying to get 2 AP1231s (12.3-8) in bridge mode (root/non-root, antennas transmit/receive right) that have 4 VLANs going across the airwaves. Now, the bridges are associated, they can see each other's IP address, but will they ping? Absolutely not! VLAN20 is the native assigned to bridge-group 1, I've tried IP addresses on the BVI1, dot11Radio 0.20 and fa0.20 interfaces with no luck. There's no other fancy configuration options applied, just 4 VLANs going across two associated bridges. Any ideas? Appreciate any assistance you can offer.
I'd already found the document that Rob recommended beforehand and that proved useful in getting the units to associate. Now I just need a ping! A PC connected to the non-root bridge's Ethernet port via a Xover cable is able to ping the non-root bridge but that's as far as it goes.
Root bridge config attached. No IP assigned on this copy but as advised, tried a few scenarios!
Thanks, Paul

Ace module in bridged mode with client nat

Could someone confirm whatever a NAT is supported for ACE-20 module, please?
Let me to explain technical details.
I do need to convert working CSM(SLB) config to ACE configuration and I am not quite sure
if the configuration below is correct. ACE module should be configured in bridge mode with two
vlans - vlan 36 (client) and vlan 436 (server) - bridged with interface bvi 36.
NAT on ACE configurad as "nat dynamic 1025 vlan 436" into corresponding
"policy-map type loadbalance"
Could you check two parts of configs and advise me if the ACE config is
properly converted from CSM and will be working in the same way (especialy for NAT).
Thank you in advance.

Hello F.Makarenko-
You will want to use PAT while you do nat, so change the natpool configuration to this:
   nat-pool 1025 10.36.3.100 10.36.3.100 netmask 255.255.255.0 pat
You also need to apply the nat like this:
policy-map multi-match IFVLAN36-POLICY
class WEBMAIL-80
    appl-parameter http advanced-options HTTP_ADV_OPT
    loadbalance policy WEBMAIL-80
    loadbalance vip inservice
    loadbalance vip icmp-reply active
    nat dynamic 1025 vlan 436
class WEBMAIL-443
    appl-parameter http advanced-options HTTP_ADV_OPT
    loadbalance policy WEBMAIL-443
    loadbalance vip inservice
    loadbalance vip icmp-reply active
    nat dynamic 1025 vlan 436
If you are going to build out a lot of classes, you can instead do source nat like this:
policy-map multi-match IFVLAN36-POLICY
class WEBMAIL-80
    appl-parameter http advanced-options HTTP_ADV_OPT
    loadbalance policy WEBMAIL-80
    loadbalance vip inservice
    loadbalance vip icmp-reply active
class WEBMAIL-443
    appl-parameter http advanced-options HTTP_ADV_OPT
    loadbalance policy WEBMAIL-443
    loadbalance vip inservice
    loadbalance vip icmp-reply active
class class-default
    nat dynamic 1025 vlan 436

How can I use multiple client side vlans in ACE?

In CSM we have a default-gateway per Client VLAN, in ACE there is no equivalent command! How does the ACE handles routing in this situation?

Hi,
Talk about a deja-vu. I was faced with the exact same challenge about a year ago.
Basically, I think you're looking at two options:
1) Firewall-consolidation - Consolidate your four firewalls into one, having one dedicated interface towards the ace and route all your vips using the ace as
    next-hop. It looks like your firewalls are virtual (but I don't know), so it's duable. But I don't know if this is even an option for you.
2) Per. clientvlan context - Context A for vlan1001, Context B for vlan1002 and so on. Each context handles clienttraffic for the respective vlan and since
    each context handles it's own routingtable, simply use the firewall-address as your default route. But from your drawing, it looks like your server-vlans
    are all connected to the same ace, so you will need to split that up. Assign each servervlan to an ace-context as you do with the clientside-vlans.
Well, a third option would be NAT in your firewall. Unless you have a specific need for the original client-ip the reach the ace, you could nat incoming clientsessions in each of the firewalls to an interface-address on that firewall, hence the ace will see the clientrequest as originating from the firewall and since ace has connected routes to each of the firewall, it wall return traffic to respective firewall and leave it to him to return the traffic to the client.
Since each firewall will present the packets with a unique NAT'ed address, you can apply different policies, parameters etc. for that NAT-address, if this is required.

Multiple vlans configuration issue with RV016 router and SG 300-10MP witch

Hi,
I have to configure multiple vlans served with a unique DCHP server . As first step, I just will The DHCP server to serve 2 vlans. The following is the hardware and configuration that I implemented :
Router (RV016 10/100 16-Port VPN Router) as gateway mode:
IP : 172.16.0.1/24
DHCP Server :
IP : 172.16.0.2/24 GW: 172.16.0.1
2 subnets :
172.16.1.0/24 GW: 172.16.1.1 to serve vlan 1
172.16.2.0/24 GW:172.16.2.1 to serve vlan 2
Switch (SG 300-10MP 10-Port Gigabit PoE Managed Switch) as layer 3 mode:
IP 172.16.0.254 (vlan 8 default)
Vlan 1 : 172.16.1.1
Vlan 2 : 172.16.2.1
1 device connected on each vlan
a workstation on the vlan 1
a laptop on the vlan 2
In this scenario (see the attached pdf file) the DHCP server is connected on a router, hosts on vlans dont receive any IP address.
But If I connect the DHCP server on a trunked switch port and adapt the DHCP server gateway 172.16.0.1 to 172.16.0.254, hosts receive ip address properly.
I have to connect the DHCP server directly to the router. How can I do that, what is wrong in the configuration ?
I hope the explanations are clear enough and my English too
Any help will be highly appreciated,
Zoubeir

Hi Eric, the small business group doesn't support the ASA config, but I can help with the switch.
A couple things I notice in your description-
48 port (192.168.1.254) and the other 24P (192.168.1.253) we have a second vlan 20 set up on the 24P switch (192.168.2.253) we have ports 1-12 set for vlan20 (untagged and trunk), the remaining ports on on the default vlan 1.
The connection between the switches, is it 1u, 2t?
The link between the switches should be 1u, 2t, the switches support the trunking and vlan tagging, meaning all communication will work fine.
We have the 24p and 48p switches connect using GE1 and GE1. We are unable to ping a device on vlan 20 ( on the 24p switch
The 24p switch should be in layer 2 mode, if you have the 48 port l3 switch upstream. Additionally, you need to have the default gateway set on the 24p switch.
We have a static route set on the 24p switch (0.0.0.0 192.168.1.0).
Between the switches, it shouldn't require any static routes, assuming you correctly trunk / tag your ge1 ports, with both switches operating in l3, the ip route table dynamically builds the connected routes, therefore a static route is redundant.

Multiple VLANs over 1300 series bridges

Hi
I am looking to connect a small external building to a main campus building by wireless bridge. The building i want to connect currently has two vlans, can the 1300 series bridges carry multiple vlans over the wireless bridge link? If so can anyone point me towards s document that explains it?
Many thanks
Simon

Hi Simon,
Yes they can, here is a link, i hope it helps you, look at the "Bridge configuration" title.

Onplus with multiple VLAN

Hi,
i am trying to set the network agent N100 on a trunk port on a switch (2960) without success regarding dhcp???
The problem is that the agent is not getting any ip address from a dhcp pool from a Cisco 1841 router acting as DHCP server. The topology is like this:
Router---------------------------------------------------------------------Switch--------------------------------------------------------------------On100
         fa0/0
         fa0/0.10
         fa0/0.20
The router is on the stick with subinterfaces. Ports connecting the router and On100 on the switch are 802.1q trunk ports. I also made a simulation of this topology on the GNS3 and with wireshark i can see that dhcp discover are comming inbound fa0/0 but when i type the command:
R#show ip dhcp server statistics there are no received dhcp discover packets???It's very strange.
Did any one have experience with multiple vlan topology?
Thanks

Delo,
Take a look at the document link below. Beginning on page 3 contains a sample configuration. I would recommend reading the entire document to get your arms around the VLAN discovery functionality. I can appreciate that when reading some of the documentation it can be confusing and lead you to believe that it can discover additional networks using Layer 3 routing. That said, the one thing to keep in consideration is that OnPlus/ON100, other than the Network Scanning functionality, will not traverse Layer 3 boundaries to do additional discovery/monitoring. You can manually add devices that are only accessible via Layer 3 and select to do some monitoring on those devices however they must be added manually and it will not attempt to access those devices via SSH/Telnet or SNMP. As such, it won't do functions like backing up configurations.
OnPlus autodiscovery will only use Layer 2 and that is why you would need the VLAN Trunking with DHCP in each VLAN or to SPAN a switch port. With VLAN trunking the ON100 will have an IP in the other VLAN and be able to discover devices on that now "local LAN". With port spanning, the ON100 would discover based on packets it receives. It can appear a little confusing but as long as you keep in mind that the ON100 won't discover over a Layer 3, that will help to clarify some of the confusion.

Vlan over wireless bridge with internet sharing?

Hi Community, my first post here, hoping somebody may be able to advise...
I live on a farm which is too far for broadband but fortunately I also have an office in a nearby town and because I have line of sight I have setup a wireless bridge, this gives me 8 MBits which is wonderful. Some of my equipment, for example a NAS is on the farm, and I need to access them from the office via the wireless link and I occasinally use vnc to access my office desktop from the farm. This all works beautifully.
Ok. now I want to share my internet with my neighbor on the farm, who, in a strange twist also rents an office next to mine downtown, so I would like to give him access to the internet and to his equipment he has there too.. but I don't want him to be able to access my equipment and visa versa I don't want to see his stuff...
This sounds like a job for port based VLAN.. and so what I bought is two Linksys/Cisco SLM2005 layer2 switches in the hope that this would allow me to do what I want... but I'm not so sure now. In the office I use a draytek v2910 which has a vlan feature that allows me to separate the ports from each other, only giving them internet access.
So... if I connect these two switches to each other, and I create a VLAN with the same id on each of the switches, will the corresponding vlans be shared, so, if you assume the following hardware setup:
farm: slm2005 switch
port 1 -> wireless bridge to office: member of vlan "2", "3"
port 2 -> access point A for neighbor: member of vlan "2"
port 3 -> my own access point B: member of vlan "3"
office: slm2005 switch
port 1 -> wireless bridge to farm: member of vlan "2", "3"
port 2 -> access point C for neighbor: member of vlan "2"
port 3 -> my access point for office D: member of vlan "3"
port 4 -> router port 1: member of vlan "2"
port 5 -> router port 2: member of vlan "3"
the router (draytek v2910) is configured in such a way to separate port 1 and port 2 (otherwise there would be a loop...)
The idea here is to create a vlan "2" for my neighbor and "3" for myself. but what's the correct way to consider the wireless bridge inbeetween (in fact, I think the same problem would occur if I just connected the two switches with a cable (if i had a 2 mile long one..)...)
Will my neighbor be able to see both access points "A" and "C" and the internet, but not be my access points "B" and "D"? Or does this whole concept of VLAN over bridge not work like this, or not at all?
Thanks in advance for any advice,
Andres

Hi Andreas,
you're not far from it.
Your whole concept is ok. What you just need is on the gateway of each subnet (I would presume it's the router in the office) to create an access list preventing to route between vlan 2 and 3.
On all other devices, traffic can't jump between vlans. But on a routing device that has the Vlan layer3 interfaces, traffic is routed between vlans so that's where you need to prevent it.
With regards to vlans over wireless, you're also having the good concept. The point is to have only 1 ssid, that will be in a certain vlan, but also bridging the other vlans onto that ssid.
This doc should help you out :

Multiple VLANs per SSID with local switch

Is it possible to use an 'AP Group' or 'Interface group' to assign multiple VLANs to a WLAN when remote, h-reap APs are in local switch mode?
If not, is there a way to overcome 500 maximum host per VLAN when APs are local switching?
Thanks!

dont think its possible...
I donno if the following config will even work but u can have the hreap APs connected at the remote site to map to different vlans...
Example:
AP1 -- ssid 1 --- vlan 10
AP2 -- said 1 --- vlan 11 and so forth..
Sounds crazy but i ll have to ponder on this a bit more.. Need a pen and paper to draw a quick topology :)...

DHCP Setup across multiple VLANs on RV325 - DHCP Server only working on VLAN 1

I have multiple VLAN subnets defined on my RV325 - when I try and utilize a DHCP Server on each VLAN, it only seems to be issuing IP Addresses to clients on VLAN ID 1. When I first set this up months ago, I thought I had tested it providing IP Addresses via the other subnets. Now that I am trying to do so, it isn't working "as expected". Example - I am using VLAN 25 as the GuestWireless subnet utilizing a separate 802.11n WAP that is set to Bridge connections to the IP Address of the VLAN interface. Devices are able to connect to the WAP, but end up with a self-assigned IP Address 169.x.x.x address. There has to be an easy fix to this, but I seem to be "stuck" figuring out what it is…pointers/redirects appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks - I've already reviewed that information before I posted. I've been working with DHCP since the mid-90's, so I'm comfortable with the settings/configuration I need to leverage to make this work via other means using various Network-based OSes.
I'm wondering if there are other options in configuring this device that can impact the ability to dynamically serve IP addresses on a VLAN/subnet-by-VLAN/subnet basis.
As I did more testing, I discovered when I reserved an IP Address via the IP & MAC Binding option within the DHCP Settings, those devices would receive their static reservations and work as expected, so the problem seems to be leveraging the DHCP Pool for devices connecting to VLANs other that VLAN 1.
Any ideas as to why the DHCP Pool's are "non-functioning" for the other VLANs is greatly appreciated...
Each VLAN is setup with a separate DHCP Server configuration as shown below:
VLAN ID = 1 (Default, Inter VLAN Routing = Enabled, LAN1-6 = Untagged, LAN7=Tagged, LAN8=Excluded, LAN9-14 Untagged)
