Inline Posture between Cisco ISE and Wireless LAN Controller

Hi,
I was looking into Cisco ISE solution for deploying NAC.
I have a question about the network topology.
In the user guide documents of cisco ISE, it is written that for Wireless LAN Controllers (WLC) and VPN devices, an additional server, Inline Posture, is needed.
However, in the following integration document, there is not an inline posture between WLC and Cisco ISE server.
https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-18121
I want to know if Inline Posture is a requirement, if not a requirement, what are the benefits of having it between Cisco ISE Server and WLC.
Thanks & Regards

Wildcard Certificate and Wireless Lan Controller

Hello,
I'm working with wlc 5508 version 7.2.111.3 and I'm looking to use a wildcard certificate, I've just checked on the forum that there was a bug-id and it seems it's been closed with a workaround of not using wildcard certs, is it resolved now?
If yes, could you indicate to me how can I proceed to install it quickly?
Regards

Hello,
The bug was about bad behavior when the wildcard certificate is used. The status of the bug now is "Terminated". That means it was found that the root cause for this bug is not really a bug (bad description, normal behavior...etc).
So, I think you can go with the wildcard certificat you have. The bug was opened on 5.2 version which is very old comparing to 7.2.
Let us know how it goes.

How to replace the certificate of Cisco 2106 wireless LAN controller for CAPWAP ?

I have interested in CAPWAP feature and I download the open capwap project to make Access Controller (AC) and Wireless Terminal Point (WTP). I had built the AC which used PC and WTP which used Atheros AP. The CAPWAP feature work well when I enabled the CAPWAP that used my own AC and WTP. When I got the Cisco 2106 wireless LAN controller (Cisco WLC), I configured the Cisco WLC to instead my own AC but I got the authorize fail in Cisco WLC side. It seem the Cisco WLC could not recognize the CAPWAP message which sent form my own WTP. I think this issue just need to synchronize the certificate between Cisco WLC and WTP.So I need to replace the Cisco WLC's certificate manually. Does anyone know how to replace the certificate manually with Cisco WLC ?
Best Regards,
Alan

Unfortunately this Support Community is for Cisco Small Business & Small Business Pro product offerings. The WLC2106 is a traditional Cisco product. You can find this type of support on the Cisco NetPro Forum for all traditional Cisco products.

Can cisco CAP2702i connect to Cisco3850 switch with wireless LAN controller license via another switch ?

If i connect cisco AP - CAP2702i to another switch, and use trunk port between Cisco3850 and the other switch , can the AP able to register with Cisco3850 with wireless LAN controller ? or the AP has to directly connect to Cisco3850 in order to register?

The AP and 3850 wireless management are in same Vlan( vlan202). The AP is new unit and did not join MC before.
What i did on 3850 :
input command - wireless management interface vlan 202
- ap cdp
- wireless mobility controller
Is there any config i miss out on 3850 and any config need to be set on AP ?
From Ap console output show me "could not discover WLC using dhcp ip". Is it due to AP dont have IP address? If AP register with WLC through layer 2 , i believe there is no related with IP.Correct me if i'm wrong.
Due to the 3850 is not a POE, the AP unable directly connect to 3850 . I guess have to use power adapter to power on the AP.

Cisco Wireless Control System need wireless Lan Controller ?

Cisco Wireless Control System need wireless Lan Controller , for Rogue detection

Hi Joao,
The WCS is used in conjuntion with the WLC (Wireless Lan Controller) for Rogue Detection. It is not a must for this function but more of an add-on :)
The Cisco WCS is an optional network component that works in conjunction with Cisco Aironet Lightweight Access Points, Cisco wireless LAN controllers and the Cisco Wireless Location Appliance.
From this doc;
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6305/index.html
Overview of WCS
The Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS) is a Cisco Unified Wireless Network Solution management tool that adds to the capabilities of the web user interface and command line interface (CLI), moving from individual controllers to a network of controllers. WCS includes the same configuration, performance monitoring, security, fault management, and accounting options used at the controller level and adds a graphical view of multiple controllers and managed access points.
WCS runs on Windows 2003 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES 4.0 and AS 4.0 servers. On both Windows and Linux, WCS can run as a normal application or as a service, which runs continuously and resumes running after a reboot.
The WCS user interface enables operators to control all permitted Cisco Unified Wireless Network Solution configuration, monitoring, and control functions through Internet Explorer 6.0 or later. Operator permissions are defined by the administrator using the WCS user interface Administration menu, which enables the administrator to manage user accounts and schedule periodic maintenance tasks.
WCS simplifies controller configuration and monitoring while reducing data entry errors with the Cisco Unified Wireless Network Controller autodiscovery algorithm. WCS uses the industry-standard SNMP protocol to communicate with the controllers.

802.1x Authentication on Wired and Wireless LAN

I have successfully configured 802.1x authentication on wired and wireless Lan. We have Cisco Switches, ACS SE and Windows AD.
But i have one issue regarding the Single Sign on while authentication using the 802.1x with Windows Active directory the users that are login first time not able to logon but the users that have their profiles already existed in their PC then there is no issue and they successfully authenticated and login easily.
Is there any way of login successfully for the users first time using 802.1x authentication with Windows AD like a Single Sign On?

We ran into the same situation from time to time. We implemented 802.1x authentication using the Cisco Secure Services Client (SSC) on the windows hosts.
At the beginning we were completly unable to logon on the maschines where no locally stored windows profile exists. After change to timeout to authenticate at the network in the SSC options we are able to logon to the network and also be authenticated by the domain controller.
Sadly this works out often as a timing issue. Most times the user needs to try a couple of times. At the moment, I'm also very interessted in a good way to avoid this (as it seems to be) racecondition.
Hope that someone else has any clue?

Does Cisco NAC support Wireless LAN?

Hi There
I know Cisco NAC supports Wireless LAN. I have deployed this myself with various brands of Autonomous APs. These works fine only in in-band mode, not in out-of-band mode.
However, Cisco did mentioned for Cisco AP, with Cisco NAC and Cisco switches, out-of-band is supported. I tried this today, and it's either Cisco is wrong, which is highly unlikely, or I did not configure either the NAC portion or the Cisco AP correctly, which is most likely? I wonder where did I go wrong? Please somebody, advice me on this?
Regards,
Ram
+6012-2918870

Hi Ramraj,
You can do out-of-band with Wireless deployments now, however you must have a Wireless Lan Controller managing your APs. You cannot do it with standalone APs.
The guide below goes through most of the configuration:

Mobility between Cisco WLC and Meraki(other vendor)

Is it possible that users can roam between Cisco WLC and other vendor wireless gear? Meraki keeps saying it is possible.
They keep saying it is a IEEE feature and everone should support but I do not understand how?

While theoretically possible with the adoption of capwap, it would require all the manufacturers to follow the specs exactly the same. Kind of like hearding cats, not impossible, but highly unlikely.. That's just my opinion

Software Version Upgrade for Cisco 4402 Wireless Lan Controller

Hi,
We have Cisco 4402 Wireless Lan Controller with Software Version 3.2.171.6 and we want to upgrade it to latest version.
So can anyone please let me know the latest version to upgrade the WLC?
Also since WLC is running on very lower version is it possible to upgrade to the latest version directly or we have to move it step by step to upgrade this to latest version?
Thanks

Take a look at the compatibility matrix below:

Difference between Cisco DCNM and CISCO Fabric Manager

Hello Everyone,
I am new to Cisco SAN and just would like to know the differences between cisco DCNM and Cisco Fabric manager and which one is latest as of now.
regards
VINAY

Hi Viany,
Fabric Manager was renamed DCNM starting at 5.2.
Fabric Manager only monitors SAN Fabrics, while DCNM 5.2 and above can monitor both SAN Fabrics and Ethernet LANs.

Routing issue between Cisco Nexus and Cisco 4510 R+E Chassis

We have configured Cisco Nexus 7K9 as core and Cisco 4510 R+E as access switches for Server connectivity.
We are experiencing problem in terms of ARP learning and Ping issues between Cisco Nexus and end hosts.

Hi,
So you have N7k acting as L3 with servers connected to 4510?.
Do you see the MAC associated with failing ARP in 4510?. Is it happening with all or few servers?. Just to verify if it is connectivity issue between N7k and 4510, you can configure an SVI on 4510 and assign address from same raneg (server/core range) and perform a ping.
This will help narrow down if issue is between server to 4510 or 4510 to N7k.
Thanks,
Nagendra

The difference of the IEEE802.1x Auth between Cisco Routers and Catalyst switches

Hello
I am investigating the difference of the IEEE802.1x Auth between Routers and Switches.
Basically dot1x auth is availlable on Catalyst Switches. however if I want to check to
PortBased Multi-Auth , MAC address Auth and any certification Auth with this feature,
Is it possible to integrate into Cisco Router such as Cisco 891F ?
In my opinion Cisco891F is also available to use basic IEEE802.1x but if it compares with Catalyst switches such as Cat3560X
I think there might be any unsupported feature on Cisco 891F.
I appreciate any information. thank you very much in advance.

Many time in interviews asked comaprison between cisco routers and switches that i was answerless bcoz i dont have much knowledge about that.Can anyone provide me the compariosin sheet of the same.how are the cisco devices differ with each other how much Bandwidth each routres support and Etc...
Ummmm ... The most common question I get is "what is the difference between a router and a switch".
However, if you get a question like this, then my impression to this line of questioning are:
1. The candidate they are looking for has in-depth knowledge of routers and switches. And I mean IN-DEPTH!;
2. They are not looking for a candidate. They just want to stroke their ego. There is not alot of people who can give you the "names and numbers" of routers and switches at a snap of a finger. And if you do happen to know the answer, then and there, then expect a tougher follow-up question.

AIR-CAP3501I access point not joining the Cisco 2100 Wireless Lan controller.

Hello All,
I am installing a new LAP (AIR-CAP3501I ) through the wireless lan controller (AIR-WLC2112-K9) with software version 7.0. I have an external ADSL modem which will act as the DHCP server for the wireless clients and the LAP.
Please find my network setup as below:
The ISP ADSL modem , WLC and LAP are connected to a unmanaged POE switch. The LAP gets its power through the POE switch. When i connect the LAP and the WLC to the switch along with the ADSL modem, the LAPs are getting the ip address from the ADSL modem, however they are not joining the WLC for further process.
ADSL Modem ip address: 192.168.1.254
Management ip address on the LAP: 192.168.1.1 ( Assigned to port 1, untagged Vlan).
Ap Manager ip address: 192.168.1.1 ( Assigned to the same port i.e port1, Untagged Vlan).
The LAP is getting an IP address from the ADSL modem in the range of the DHCP scope.
I will paste the logs very soon.
Please let me know if i am doing anything wrong oe what will be the issue.
Thanks in advance,
Mohammed Ameen

The Acess point joins the Controller for 2-3 seconds and then unjoins again. I am not sure what i am doing wrong here. The access points are getting the IPs from the ADSL modem through the switch, then it talks to the WLC, however it does not join the controller for further process.
Note:
The Managemnet interface and the AP manager interface are assigned to the same port 1 with unassigned Vlan as mention above.
