Config mesh range command - controller based mesh configuration

Hello,
I have to install a wireless mesh network shortly using Cisco 1552 APs. This will be controller based using 5508 controllers. The controllers currently have some 1262 APs configured in a mesh and bridging configuration so happy that it all basically works.
My question is - what is the "config mesh range' command doing on the controller ( or setting the Range(RootAP to MeshAP) setting on the controller mesh GUI. The default setting is 12000feet and I have left it at default at present. Just interested in what this is used for - I assume it alters the mesh protocol parameters somehow ( or the RF parameters perhaps ) as it suggests in the guide that mesh APs will reboot following this command being changed.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,

Hi r.brooks
config mesh range is solely being used on outdoor mesh devices (1520, 1550) in order to fine tune the timeout of the bridging function (if applicable). It is actually a number that dictates to the outdoor mesh access points (MAPs only) the "distance" of two consequtive MAPs that are bridging traffic. When tuning this one, use the longest distance on any MAP-MAP that are doing mesh bridging. If not sure about the distance, keep the default value.
I hope this helped.
best regards,
George

How to configure IP Address filter in Controller based Access Points ?

Dear Team,
Configuration:
i have 5508 series controller and joined the two Thin APs to the controller. WLAN controller is connected to PC where Multicast receiver is running for two Multicast IP addresses (IP1: 230.1.1.1, IP2: 230.1.1.2). Multicast sender is running for two IP addresses on Station.
Requirement:
When Station is associated to AP1, AP1 should block the multicast packets going to AP2 and vice versa . That is AP1 should be configured to block multicast packets going to 230.1.1.2 and AP2 should be configured to block multicast packets going to 230.1.1.1.
Thanks,
Harsha

I believe you could apply ACLs and check if that helps.

Controller based AirGroup Policies & Auto-association

Requirement:
Controller based AirGroup Policies
By default all AirGroup servers are visible to every AirGroup user.
This features enables configuring policies on controller for AirGroup servers to limit the visibility of AirGroup servers to destined AirGroup users. Admin is allowed to configure shared user-list, shared role-list and shared group-list for each AirGroup server to limit this server’s visibility to intended AirGroup users.
The group-list is the same as the group defined in Active directory.
These configurations were done in CPPM prior to v6.4.3, now it is extended to the controller.
Auto-association
Auto-association feature helps with visibility of an AirGroup server If it needs to be seen by a broader area. This feature enables attaching an AirGroup server to an AP-name, AP-group or AP-FQLN and any AirGroup users associated to that AP-name etc. will be automatically see those AirGroup Server.
Auto-association feature can be applied at AirGroup Service level as well – AirPlay etc. All AirGroup  Servers advertising that service will be seen by AG users associated to that AP-name/AP-group/AP-FQLN.
Use case – In a multi-floor building, if you want users in Floor-10 to have access to a printer in Floor-10. You can define location based policy and attach the printer to an AP-group for floor-10 and users belonging to that AP-group will be able to access that printer.
Solution:
Controller based AirGroup Policies
Policies can be configured on the controller to limit the visibility of AirGroup servers to destined AirGroup users
Policies can be configured based on shared user-list, shared role-list and shared group-list
Location based policies for AirGroup devices can be configured based on ap-name, ap-group and ap-fqln
This was done in CPPM prior to v6.4.3
Auto-association
Enables AG users to discover AG servers based on
AP or its neighbours
AP-Group
AP-FQLN
Auto-associate can be enabled at Airgroup Server
Airgroup Service level (Airplay etc)
Configuration:
This configuration defines a policy for AG server based on its MAC address and share this server among list of users, role, group and location.

Command to see policy entries
Command to see service level Auto-assciate
Command to see records of each of the airgroup servers and the buckets (AP name/FQLN) in which they fall into
This command shows the AirGroup devices fall into different buckets based on the controller based policies.
In this example, the AirGroup device (10.70.21.32) is configured under AP bucket.
This bucketing mechanism also helps with the scalability. With AOS v6.4.3, the scalability in terms of number of AirGroup users and servers has been increased to the platform limit of the controller. For example, for 7240 controller, number of AirGroup users and servers is 32K (max #of clients to be supported by 7240 controller). Fetching an entry for AirGroup device from the cache entries (with this increased scalability) was a challenge. This bucketing mechanism helps finding clien entries belonging to a specific bucket and fetching from the entries in that bucket.
Few additional commands to find log files and tech-support.
#Show airgroup servers verbose
#Show log user all
#Show log system all
#Show tech-support <file-name>

Cisco 1142 WGB in a controller based network

Hi,
I have trouble with Cisco AP1142 which is configured in WGB mode. I'm trying to get it work in a controller based network, where LAPs are configured in H-REAP. SSID where WGB should be associated drops it traffic to VLAN60. Security type is WPA2-PSK.
I've configured the WGB and it associates and gets IP from the correct network....but the problem is that laptop connected to WGB won't work. It gets no IP address and won't work with static IP.
At the moment I have no VLANs configured on the WGB - should I have?
AP IOS version is 12.4(25d)JA and WLC version is 7.0.98.0.
Please find config file attached and also a topology image. Hope these help.
Br,
Petri

Hi Petri,
WGB mode with HREAP is not supported:
http://tools.cisco.com/squish/dcAfC

You may want to test this with uWGB mode and static IP config.However, there is a new bug filed for uWGB mode as well:

3750, range command, session hang

Hi All,
I've noticed that when using the range command to configure multiple interfaces on a 3750 the SSH session oftens hangs.
It's seems the more interfaces in the range command the more often it hangs. I have a feeling it also spikes up the CPU.
Has anyone else come across this?
Doesn't seem to be related to a specific version of code.
Anyone know a workaround?
I tried shutting the interfaces before hand but that made no difference.
In some instances I could not even change 2 interfaces without my SSH session disconnecting. Its very frustrating.
This is the typical interface config.
Doesn't seem hang on any particular command.

Look, if you have no other options but to stick to the current stack structure, there's another way to "cheat".
1. Open a Notepad;
2. Type in your commands, for example:
conf t
interface r G1/0/1 - 48, G2/0/1 - 48 , F3/0/1 48
no macro description
end
3. Save the TXT file and run the following commands on the switch: copy tftp:///.txt run
This should implement your command without going into interface configuration mode. Just make sure that you save the config when you are done.

Ankit,
You are trying to set speed 1000 on a 10g sfp.

You will need to insert a 1gig sfp and then you will be able to set the speed.
Also, I noticed that you posted first with interface 2/6 and the output you gave me was for 4/6. Are you sure you're in the right interface?

ACL on controller-based wireless

We're trying to put an ACL on our wireless guest subnets on a controller-based wireless system. We're using 2 of the WiSMs. The ACL I used to use in WLSM allowed the guest subnet to the dhcp servers and out to the internet and dropped everything else, but I don't know where I would apply that list now for it to work with all the different vlans and addresses for the WiSMs.

Config storage confusion 2504 controller with CAP702I

HI all,
I've been tasked with the rollout of the above mentioned hardware, and I've managed to get so far, but it seems I cannot do a 'copy running-config startup-config' on the CAP702I Aironet access points.
ive got then registered with the controller and radios turned on but the problem is that it the power is cycled the radios turn off, I can SSH into each AP and manually turn them on and it works all fine except I shouldn't need to do that.
If anyone could give me a clue as to how to change the ap config to either store the config with radios enabled on restart on the device itself or guide me through storing the config on the 2504 controller and pointing to it on the ap devices for their startup, it would be much appreciated.

So simply wireless clients are not getting ip address from the DHCP scope defined for them on AD DHCP server.
few facts about DHCP handling on WLC:
- With DHCP proxy enabled , the controller acts as relay agent.
Simply you configure primary or may be secondary DHCP server under the interface config.
When the client starts the DHCP process the controller will rekay the clients DHCP packets
in unicast form.
- With DHCP proxy disabled , the controller will not intervene at all, and the client traffic will be sent
as broadcast. If the DHCP server is on different VLAN , you have to configure relay agent under the gateway
of the client vlan so that it can reach the DHCP server.
Please make sure to rate correct answer

Color Range command in Photoshop CS6 13.0.4 no longer works after update

I just updated to 13.0.4 at the end of last week. Today I went to use the Color Range command and it will not select any colors. The Eyedropper tool works fine. Adjusting the fuzziness and other options doesn't make a difference. Nor does selecting multiple instances of a color to add to the selection. Since I use this command regularly, I feel confident that it is a bug with the update and I would love to hear of any possible fixes. Or, is it possible to downgrade back to 13.0.3? I didn't realize how much I used this and it's a major inconvenience.

I feel confident that it is a bug with the update and I would love to hear of any possible fixes.
Some people, when encountering unexpected behaviour in Photoshop, seem overly prone to use the term »bug«.
Have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by keeping command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift pressed while starting Photoshop after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)?
Could you please post a screenshot with the pertinent Panels and Dialogs visible?

What is the command to verify the configuration that are not saved or sent to local controllers?

Q: What is the command to verify the configuration that are not saved or sent to local controllers?
A: We can execute the command that is shown in below image to check the status of the configuration that has been made.
Note: For example I made changes to the default VAP profile and executed the command "show master-configpending" which shows the pending configuration to be saved/sent to local controllers.

But that jar file loads without images and icons when it is in other directory.Images should be accessed via a URL rather than using a filename because they will exist as entries in the jar archive not as files. Typically this URL would be obtained by using the Class method [getResource()|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/Class.html#getResource(java.lang.String)]. There are details in this [Java World article|http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javaqa/2002-11/02-qa-1122-resources.html].

Re: Container Based Software Configuration Management

I've read the overview of Container Based Software Configuration Management and
have to admit that it is a nice concept. In fact, our SCM product SiberSafe Expert
2.0 (www.siberlogic.www) almost literally follows the guidelines mentioned in
the overview except that we call it Component Management.
SiberSafe recognizes the fact that most of software projects consist of software
components that have been inherited from and are being reused in other projects.
SiberSafe was built on the premise that it is critical to be able to version components
consisting of multiple files and folders so that a new project can be created
out of particular versions of multiple exising
components.
SiberSafe also recognizes the fact that various versions of various components
may be distributed not only across multiple projects, but also across multiple
lines of development (we call them "development streams"). This is why SiberSafe
makes the propagation of new versions of components from their "home" streams
into other streams where they are used and reused
as simple as a mouse button click.
When a few projects have a few development lines (streams) each and there are
tens or even hundreds of software components reused across these projects and
streams, it becomes pretty difficult to keep track of what went where and when.
What is the version of a specific java bean that our project currently uses? Is
there a newer version for that bean available? What verson of that bean do other
projects use? In order to provide users with
clear answers to this kind of questions SiberSafe automatically generates a visual
development flowchart that graphically shows relationships and interactions among
various components, component versions, projects and lines of development.
In fact, SiberSafe can easily generate such a flowchart even for a single file,
showing the full "travel" history of that file across projects and streams.

All,
There has been some uptake and some great feedback on rConfig since I made this announcement two weeks ago. rConfig is offically released as Version1 today. Please login to www.rconfig.com and download a copy.
You know, it takes less than 1 hour to install rConfig on Linux and more than 2 hours to get some of it's well known commercial counterparts up and running. There is even a complete, easy-to-follow Linux build document designed especially for the rConfig installation on www.rconfig.com. You'll be backing up Cisco configuration and show outputs in no time with rConfig. And even learning a bit of Linux along the way.
And remember, it's free & open source.
