Cisco 526 WLC and 2106 WLC in one Mobility Group

Hi,
is it possbile to build a solution with one Cisco 526 Wireless Express Mobility Controller and one Cisco 2106 Wireless LAN Controller in one Mobility Group regarding seamless roaming??
Thank for your answers
Best regards
Stephan

I don't know if it is possible, but I would think if you had any issues, TAC wouldn't support it. Try opening a case with TAC to see.

  • Migrating 2 standalone 5508 to one mobility-group

    hey everyone,
    for some reason our wlan-controllers were build up to be standalone instead of beeing one mobility-group.
    I would like to change this in order to use all features of HA.
    let me describe our scenario:
    two WLCs 5508 running SW ver. 6
    - same subnet
    - both are running in master controller mode
    - different hostnames, ip-addresses, etc
    - all settings for WLANs and AP-groups (exept the APs themselves in these groups) are the same
    - in total at this moment we are running around 100 LAPs configured one half on WLC#1, the other half on WLC#2
    I don't know exactly why, but when that setting was installed, someone already configuredHA for each accesspoint...
    e.g.:
    - AP#1 primary WLC#1, secondary WLC#2
    - AP#2 primary WLC#2, secondary WLC#1
    but without WLC#2 knowing the configuration for AP#1 it makes no sense, correct?
    so my question is: how should I do the migration in the best way?
    is it easy as:
    - disabling master controller mode on WLC#2
    - configuring both WLCs into one mobility group
    --> WLCs are negotiating their configurations for the APs
    and everything is fine after this?
    comments appriciated. ;-)
    rgeards, Manuel

    Master Controller Mode is only listened to if the AP does not have a primary controller set.
    So all you should need to do is change the mobility group name on the Controller tab to match between the two, then go into the mobility group and edit the mac/ip address of the WLC to be in both WLC.  Make sure you use the mac address from the mobility configuration, and you should be good.

  • Cisco 526 controller and AP541N

    Hello,
    I have a cisco 526 controller. Since this device is EOL. Can I still use 526 controller with AP541N? What are the limitations and problem configuring with
    AP541N?
    Thanks.
    Dipendra

    Hi Dipendra,
    The 541N is NOT supported via the 526 Controller
    With the Cisco AP 541N, you can:
    • Easily set up, configure, and manage multiple wireless access points, without the need to invest in a wireless controller

  • WLC 4400 - Different minor versions same mobility group?

    Hi all,
    i have 2 WLC 4400 integraded in 3750G.
    One has 6.0.202 and the other 6.0.188.
    They are in different places but now i want to put them in the same mobility group.
    Will this difference be a problem?
    BR
    Anthony

    Yes it will be an issue. You have to remember that the AP gets it firmware from the WLC image. So if an AP has to mi e from one to the other, it will either upgrade or downgrade each time. Best practice is to keep the firmware the same.

    Pretty much. I don't understand why you need to worry about MobileMe, though. I'd guess the vast majority of us with iDevices don't have MobileMe accounts at all. That's pretty much why it failed.

  • Configuring Guest Access using 2 LWAPs and 2504 WLC

    Please advise,
    I have 2 APs, Cisco Aironet 1040, and 2504 WLC.
    Is it possible to configure guest access (Guest SSID/VLAN and Corporative SSID/VLAN) without dedicated guest WLC in DMZ?

    Yes you can. You can have up to 16 SSIDs per AP, but not suggested to have all 16. You can either use one port on the 2504 for both SSID/vlan or specify which port is for corporate and which one is for guest.
    Thanks,

  • Connection between 5508 WLC and 3750-24PS switch

    I have to realize a connection between  an 5508 WLC and 3750 switch using one SFP cable. I found on Cisco documentation some reference about two different SFP cables.
    The first one is CAB-SFP-50CM, but this is used to interconnect two 3560 switches.
    The second is SFP-H10GB-CU1M. This one has SFP+ transceivers on both ends which I don’t know if are compatible with the standard SFP ports that can be found both on WLC and switch.
    My question is if I can use one of these cables in order to connect my devices, or if you know other one piece SFP cables.
    Many thanks

    I know that you can use those SFP transceivers, but I want to know if someone tried to use the SFP-H10GB cables for this kind of connection. Because I saw on another vendor website that the SFP+ cables are compatible with standard SFP ports, and I wanted to see if it is the same for Cisco cables too.

  • Mobility Group Requirements for Guest Anchor WLC

    Hello -
    I've alway assumed you can't create a guest tunnel between a local WLC and an anchor WLC that are in different mobility groups.   However, I was told recently (without much detail) that this is possible.  So I have set out to test this.  
    I am trying to point one of my local WLCs guest SSIDs to a guest anchor WLC in a different mobility group.   I have a maintenance window coming up and I am looking to anchor the clients on one campus to the anchor WLC on the other campus so guest service does not go down.   Each campus is it's own mobility group.   In trying to set this up I went to the "mobility anchors" screen for the guest SSID on one of the local WLCs and I am unable to add the anchor WLC from the other campus because it's non in the drop-down menu.  This is because it's not in the same mobility group.   So my question is how do I anchor clients coming through a local WLC in one mobility group to an anchor WLC in another mobility group?
    To me it doesn't seem possible without significant configuration changes.   I don't want to reconfigure/recreate mobility groups. 
    Thanks
    Chuck

    Not only is it possible, I would recommend it. However, you may be confusing some concepts.
    The Mobility Group is different than the Mobility Domain.  I generally refer to the Mobility Group as those WLCs with the same Default Mobility Group Name, and the Mobility Domain as the entire Mobility List (where you can define up to 72 controllers from various mobility groups).
    The point is that if WLCs 1-10 are GroupA, and WLCs 11-20 are GroupB, for anchoring to work you at least need to add the anchor to the mobility list of the foreign wlc, and vice versa.
    If you notice, when you add a mobility entry to the list, it should ask you for mobility group. If you leave it blank, it should default to that of that WLC,  but on GroupA controllers, you could define GroupB controllers (and specific GroupB) and then you should now have mobility established between your controllers and the Anchor configuration will have your anchors in the drop-down....
    Does that make sense?

  • HA N+1 and Mobility Groups

    Hi all,
    One question, can I have 2 WLC's on different Mobility Groups pointing to the same HA N+1 WLC which is located in one of those Mobility Groups?. I have not seen any note about this on the Cisco documentation I have checked.
    thanks

    From 7.4 onwards AP can fail over to a WLC even they are in different mobility group. So I think this set up should work without any problem.

  • Cisco wlc and steel belted radius

    we have cisco wlc controller  that have  two ssid  one for user and one for guest

    Hi                                                      Mohammad,
    I am unaware of a specific Steel Belted RADIUS intrgration guide for the WLCs, however the configuration process on the controller will be the same:
    Cisco WLC Configuration Guide 7.0 - Configuring RADIUS:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/7.0/configuration/guide/c70sol.html#wp1388328
    You may wish to contact your RADIUS vendor for additional configuration steps on the server.

  • 2106 WLC and 4 LWAPP (1252G)

    I have a 2106 WLC with 4 AP's (AIR-LAP1252AG-A-K9)
    One of the AP's (port 4) is only connecting at 10Mbps, not 100Mbps and I don't know why?
    All the ;ports are set on the controller to AUTO,  When I try to force that port to 100Mbps, the link drops.
    Could it be a cabling issue... or could I have a bad port on the 2106?    How to I troubleshoot this.  It's odd, because
    that particular AP is about 100ft from thte WLC and the closest to it.
    Any ideas?

    Interesting...  I unplugged the LAP (data and power) and removed it from the wall of our training room 75ft from our computer room,  walked the AP into the computer room and with a 15' patch cord and power supply plugged it back into the WLC 2106.  Waited a min for the AP to reboot and now my port speed is showing 100Mbps connection.   
    The issue must be with the cable run...?  Thanks for pointing out the obvious.   This now begs another questions regarding 2106 best practices and the idea of connecting our 4 AP's directly into network switches and not the WLC 2106 itself.  That seems to be the recommendation.  Any comments?

  • Cisco 8510 WLC and RTU licence

    Hi Guys,
    I have a simular issue where is shows the status as active, not-in-use.
    What does this mean and how do I get this to be in use.
    This is a Controller with HA-SKU license.
    The licenses has been inherited from the Primary Controller.
    Any license on HA-SKU controller is disregarded.
    Feature name: ap_count (adder)
    License type: Permanent
    License state: Active, Not-In-Use
    License Nodelocked: No
    RTU License Count: 50
    Hope to hear from you soon.
    Regards,
    Clifton.

    Hi,
    since this is a HA-SKU WLC, and the license is inherited from the active then no need to have a permenant license on it.
    is the HA working fine?
    please review the following link for the HA licensing requirements
