How AP + L2 + L3 + WLC switch communicates ?

Hi,
I have a confusion if someone can help me will be appriciated.
We have 50 APs (Cisco 1130ag), which connects to cisco 2900 series L2 switch, L2 switch is connected to L3 switch, we have 30 lvans,I have put all APs in a single valn named 11, on WLC we have 3 WLANs created on it, 1. sales 2. accounts 3.CC, sales have 254 IPs,account have 254 IPs, CC have 254 IPs,a client is authenticated and connected to sales WLAN, when a client broadcast,will it broadcast to entire network where 11 lvan is allowed on trunk port of L2 switch?
Thanks,
AS

Hi AS,
Assuming that your AP's are in the default mode local, here's the general idea on packet flow.
When int local mode, the AP's tunnel all of their traffic to and from the controller through a capwap or lwapp tunnel.
The key concept to remember that while the AP's are in local mode, the controller is the wireless clients' IP point of presence to the wired network.
Here's an example:
Controller's mgmt interface is on vlan 1,  192.168.1.1 (configured as untagged)
An AP associated with the controller is also on vlan 1, 192.168.1.2
The controller has dynamic interfaces configured associated with vlan 2 and vlan 3:
vlan2: 2.2.2.1
vlan3: 3.3.3.1
The controller has these ssid's:
ssid2, mapped to vlan 2
ssid3, mapped to vlan 3
The controller's port is conencted to a switch port, which is trunking for vlans 1,2 and 3, with vlan 1 as the native vlan (un tagged by cisco switches)
The AP by default advertises both of these wlans (ssid's).
A wireless client authenticates to ssid2, and gets an IP address via dhcp, 2.2.2.10.
From the wireless client, you are able to successfully ping the router on the other end of the controller's trunk, which is 2.2.2.2.
So how does this work?
1) the client sends the packet wirelessly
2) the ap processes the packet, which is associated with ssid2
3) the ap encapsulates the packet in a lwapp or capwap header, and sends it to the controller
4) the controller gets the packet, notes that it is part of ssid2, which is mapped to vlan2
5) the controller strips off the lwapp/capwap header, adds an 802.1q tag for vlan 2, and sends it to the switch
As far as the switch knows, this packet may have come from a wired client.  At this point it's just another ethernet frame tagged for vlan2.
If the client wants to ping a wired host on vlan 3?  Same thing, except routing will occur.  Assuming that the wlan2 client got assigned the correct default gateway (keep in mind that this is the router, and not the controller's vlan2 interface), the process will be the same.
The router will get the packet being none the wiser where it came from.  He'll see the destination mac is for his interface, destination ip is off of vlan3, routes it.
Now, the other mode for AP's is H-Reap.  This causes the AP's to treat packets put onto the wire as if they were a Layer 2 switch.  No tunneling to the controller happens.  The AP's switch port should be configured as if the AP is a switch (usually trunking).
In the same scenario as above, when the AP gets the wlan2 packet, he takes care of tagging it for vlan 2 and putting it on the wire.

  • Can my macbook pro mid 2007 3.1 AA896ll/a handle a SSD and how do I make the switch. Can I do a clean install of Snow Leopard from an original cd

    Here is my problem, I want to upgrade my macbook pro mid 2007 3.1 AA896ll/a to an Solid State Drive, a Crucial m4 256 gb, I want to know if the macbook will be able to handle it and how do I do the switch. also once I install the drive will I be able to boot from my Snow Leoard original cd and do a clean install. Thank you

    Coming from a 5,400 RPM drive that's nearly filled up, fragmented and deoptimized to a fresh install of OS X on a SSD will of course be a improvement.
    However fresh installing OS X on a new 5,400 RPM will also see a improvement, boot up in 30 seconds.
    A fresh install of OS X on a new 7,200 RPM drive will also see a improvement, boot up in 25 seconds.
    A fresh install of OS X on a new SSD will see the best improvement, boot up in 20 seconds on fast SATA connections.
    OS X still requires time to setup and that takes about 20 seconds despite how fast your boot drive is, that's why sleep was created.
    Things to consider: The higher cost of a SSD, the limiting capacity (hard drives hold way more up), the SATA I speed limitations (slows up on large file transfers), the difficulty to scrub the SSD of unwanted data (like you can a hard drive), and it's limited write capability. Also the smaller SSD's are faster than the larger ones.
    SSD's are shock proof, which is their slight advantage over hard drives.
    I see a 120GB SSD in a SATA I machine as being a waste, it's too small of a storage space (500GB+ is ideal), the SATA I connection is slow and other factors that make a 7,200 RPM drive a better option in that machine.
    One can get a 750 GB 7,200 RPM hard drive for about the same price and still maximize their boot time in the process, also being able to scrub their drive of unwanted data easily.
    SSD's can't be scrubbed, one has to fill 50% of the remaining space with many, very small files to overwrite the free space, then do another 50% again to defeat the Trim/wear leveling as SSD's write to less used location each time. If one fills a OS X boot drive up completely, it won't function or won't boot up.
    If you do this fill routine regularly with software, then you prematurely wear out the SSD as it has limited writes. Why Disk Utility doesn't offer zero or 7x erase for SSD's.
    If your in the 10% of Internet traffic that's going to adult sites, then the ability to scrub the caches and storage drive of embarrassing unwanted data is a necessity. Especially in the light of software and hardware that can read the SSD of deleted data.
    Trick links and redirects on poisoned sites can firebomb your Mac with some pretty bad pictures and your hidden caches as well, especially if you don't like to pay.
    IT personal have at their disposal free open source forensic software that basically aggregates all the past behavior done on the machine into a nice, easy to view format with times, dates and when and where content was downloaded from.
    Since one has to give up their password for repair folks to recover data and fix the machine...
    I think a SSD is less of a benefit over a 7,200 hard drive for that particular model of Mac for a mere few seconds faster boot time.

  • How do I use a switch with a null variable?

    Here is my current situation...
    I have a form that will take the inputted information in the field "LEDIR" and divide it by the information in field "AMMO".  I get errors when the form is first loaded because the field "AMMO" is blank and causes a "Divide by 0" problem.   I tried to solve the problem with a switch, but an not sure how to create a "null" switch case.  Here is what I have.. any ideas as to how I can set the second case so it returns a "0" for a null AMMO field?
    var InvR = this.getField("LEDIR").valueAsString;
    var AmmoPk = this.getField("AMMO").valueAsString;
    switch (Ammo)
    case "0":
       event.value = 0;
       break;
    case "[what do i put here?] ":
       event.value = 0;
       break;
    default:
       event.value = (Math.floor(InvR/AmmoPk))
    any ideas as to how I can set the second case so it returns a "0" when the AMMO field is empty?

    You can even stack the 'case' to create and 'OR' type of selection:
    var InvR = this.getField("LEDIR").valueAsString;
    var AmmoPk = this.getField("AMMO").valueAsString;
    switch (Ammo) {
    case "0":
    case "":
       event.value = 0;
       break;
    default:
       event.value = (Math.floor(InvR/AmmoPk))
    But it is just as easy to use:
    var InvR = Number(this.getField("LEDIR").value);
    var AmmoPk = Number(this.getField("AMMO").value);
    event.value = "";
    if(AmmoPk != 0) {
      event.value = (Math.floor(InvR/AmmoPk))

  • How to stop multiple auto-switching to address bar every time I open a new tab and try to type something anywhere outside of address bar?

    How to stop multiple auto-switching to address bar every time I open a new tab and try to type something anywhere outside of address bar? Like something just wants me to use that embedded search when u type something not-web-address in address bar and hit enter. And the most ridiculous thing is that it happens repeatedly on like every second, like I just move down from address bar and start typing again, but then again it switches me to address bar, and 3, 4 times like that. And the result is also that I can't see the address of that page.
    I think its has something to do with my AVG antivirus, because this started the same time some AVG Nation started to appear in every new tab i open (and thats also irritating me, I read about it here on support.mozilla.org and it seems that the only solution is to completely reinstall Firefox, but I dont want to lose all my settings) but when i type something in address bar and hit enter it opens the search results in Google.
    Please try to help me, I like Firefox but I must switch to Chrome until I fix this problem.
    Thanks in advance

    First, please update to Firefox 32. 22 is no longer support nor is it secure. Then let us know if you still have this problem. [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]

    I was hoping there might be some way to create a network between the 2 machines (and 2 different versions of the OS) to be able to transfer data across immediately but perhaps I'll just have to wait for my firewire adaptor to arrive.
    I don't understand why you're buying a Firewire adaptor, since AFAIK both of your computers have Firewire already built in.
    All you need is a firewire cable. Connect the Firewire socket on the old machine to the Firewire socket on your new iMac.
    Then start the old machine in Target Mode (i.e. by holding down the T key on its keyboard, while it's starting up, until you see the three-legged T icon hopping around the screen of the old machine.)
    At that point you will also see a new icon on the screen of your new iMac. This is the hard drive of your old machine.  By clicking on it you can navigate through it any way you like, just as you would normally.
    Just drag across whatever you want from the old computer to the new one. This will leave everything on the old computer untouched.

  • How to set clock on switch? (hardware calendar)

    hi mates :)
    anybody knows if I can set the clock based on hardware calendar? Please see how I tried and failed:
    switch#show clock detail
    *05:00:29.823 UTC Sat Jun 17 2006
    Time source is hardware calendar.
    unfortunately the time switch shows is wrong (One hour faster). I tried to fix it with the command:
    switch#clock set 04:00:00 17 Jun 2006
    switch#copy running-config startup-config
    switch#show clock
    04:01:01.507 UTC Sat Jun 17 2006
    Time source is user configuration.
    it worked until I re-started the switch. After the re-start, it showed the wrong time again (One hour faster again).
    Is there any way to fix it and get the correct time even after re-start th switch?
    thanks for help :)

    I will agree that the best way to set the clock is via NTP. However, it is desireable and possible to update the hardware clock (when there is one). If there is a network failure, and your router or switch reboots, you will still want your time rightly set.
    Use the command
    clock update-calendar
    to set the hardware clock from the software clock.

    Dear Experts,
    I'm going to try configure on how to telnet to Edge switch but still no result. My Network topology is below:
    - 1 Core Switch 3560
    - 3 Edge Switch 2960
    I'm configured 4 VLAN:
    + Vlan 19: 10.19.10.0/24
    + Vlan 20: 10.20.10.0/24
    + Vlan 21: 10.21.10.0/24
    + Vlan 22: 10.22.10.0/24
    On each Vlan, I was assigned Vlan interface IP. 
    I'm using VTP mode (Server and client) to trunking VLAN and Core SW is standing a VTP Server. I can telnet to Core SW using VLAN Interface IP. 
    The question is how can I configure to telnet to Edge SW? 
    Has somebody help me on this?
    Thanks in advance!
    JH

    Hi,
    From looking at your topology, the configuration should work. You should be able to telnet into the edge switches from anywhere in the network using the ip addresses of the vlan interfaces on each switch.
    What exactly is the issue you're experiencing?
    Are you able to ping the switch ip addresses?
    Looking forward to hearing from you
