Lwapp ap controller ip address IP-address

On this command which IP address do I use? ap-manager? or management?

Hi,
It should be the "WLC management IP address".
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_tech_note09186a008072d9a1.shtml
Search for "If necessary, issue the lwapp ap controller ip address A.B.C.D" in the above link.
Hope this helps.

  • Unable to assign wIPS profile to Controller (Mac address can not be found)

    Guys and gals, I have been struggling with this one for a couple of days now and need some help.  I am running NCS 1.1.24, and 7.2.110 on both my MSE and WLC.   The WLC is synchronized with the MSE and my NMSP is active.   Anyone ever seen this issue.  I've reinstalled the OVA twice, dumped both the WLC and the MSE and re-added, including re-synchronization.  
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Andy

    Still having issues.  I have tried this in different environments and different controllers and still get the same error message.  My concern is that perhaps this is a bug.   When I look at the wIPS profile I created it shows that the profile was applied to the MSE, however not applied to the controller.  When I click on the hyperlink to the MSE(s) Applied To column it opens up the Profile Assignments Details.   In there it gives the MSE Name of my MSE and under controller IP address, it says Unknown.  The footnotes say the Controller IP Addres will be Unknown if the controller is not managed by NCS.  However it is managed and in sync with the MSE.  Under Configure controller, my controller is showing as Reachable Managed and Syncronized.

  • LAP 2702 %CAPWAP-1-ARP_ERROR: Could not arp the controller ip address, retry later

    I am reusing one of the AP which was previously connected to WLC2504. 
    So I rename the AP and reconfigure the IP address to point to a new WLC8510. The AP and WLC is under same vlan 252.
    At first it has joined the new WLC but it keeps disconnected from wlc and reconnect again after awhile.
    AP is showing this error :
    %CAPWAP-1-ARP_ERROR: Could not arp the controller ip address, retry later
    My AP ip address is 172.16.54.171/23
    If i try to ping the ip from the same subnet, the AP has no timeout. but if I telnet into this AP and ping to wlc, it is intermittent. 
    Any idea what is the issue?

    Rasika,
    I have the same issue on my home 2504 with these 2700 UX, I have tried code 8.0.100.0, 8.0.110.0 (Docs say this is the min version supported), and even 8.0.115.0 (latest available) still no dice. The AP won't register, and gives the error stated above. I am seeing 2 images available for the AP, the AP shipped with the later image but  I AP recovery isn't working because it say's unable to find image with XX in the name? I see the TFTP logs, and name the file accordingly no dice, then the unable to find file name -XX pops up too. As you know I am busy during the day this week, but let's jump on a skype and take a look later maybe you have seen something I haven't?
    For good measure, also attempted to join a 3650 here at the house IOS-XE 3.6 no dice, going to try 3.7 too tomorrow, It worked for the 3700 UX AP's we had??

  • Clarification reg Domain Controller IP address change

    Hi,
    We are running on Windows MSCS Cluster (Primary / Secondary) for ECC Server.
    The MSCS Cluster environment of ECC Server is a member of a Domain Controller.
    We are planning to replace the Domain Controller, nevertheless all the settings / user names will remain the same.
    The only thing will be changed is the IP Address.
    For changing the IP address, we are planning to change the DNS and WINS IP address of the ECC Server accordingly.
    Hence needs clarification on the following 2 points:
    1. Is OS / SAP System Restart Required ??
    For changing the DNS and WINS IP address of ECC Server,
    whether the OS / SAP system has to be restarted ?
    2. Effect on SAP System / Setting Change required on SAP
    We would like to know whether there will be any issues with regard to SAP System Operation.
    Especially we would like to know whether any setting changes needs to be done in the SAP System also.

    Hi Anil,
    Thanks for your reply.
    That clears all my doubts.
    Thanks to Eric and to you for spending your valuable time.

  • LWAPP to Controller communications

    We are installing our first NM-AIR-WLC6 module. The router has very strict ACLS applied to the AP facing fast ethernet interface.
    The LWAPP documentation list the ports required to be open for WCS to WLS communications, but does not list the ports needed for LWAPP to WLS.
    We'd like to use IP subnet discovery, but even with DHCP option 43, we'll still need a list of ports that need to be open.

    Hi,
    there are two problems that we have identified;
    1. The VCI string in the manual is wrong. It should be: "Airspace.AP1200" it is case sensitive and the dot is part of the string.
    After having fixing the above problem and the AP get the correct DHCP reply meaning an ip address, correct subnet, the gateway ip address and via option 43 the ip address of the 4400 controller. The following is seen on the analyser trace:
    2. The AP does a layer 2 broadcast to connect the wifi controller, then a layer 3 IP broadcast on the local subnet. The AP is looping between those two.
    It is poor coding to still have the AP do a layer 2 Bcast and a layer 3 IP local Bcast on the same subnet while it has received a DHCP reply telling it that the WiFi controller is on a differend subnet.
    Btw we're using the latest version for the 4400, released early March 2006.
    The only thing we haven't tried yet is to fall back to layer 2 mode and have the AP connect to the 4400 and get new firmware. We'll try that this afternoon.
    If needed I can sent the analyser trace, we're using ethereal.

  • LWAPP - AP -- Controller Bandwidth/ Delay Constraints

    Hi
    Does anybody know if there are figures for minimum bandwidth/latency that need to be adhered to between an LWAPP AP and a Controller ?
    I know the Controllers should be located with the AP's as all WLAN traffic is passed through the controller, however I have a client that wishes to install 1 LWAPP AP in a lab environment to test authentication etc and register it back to a WLC 2006 across a 512kb WAN.
    Performance is not a concern as the AP would only be used for testing etc.
    I'm thinking this should work albeit rather slowly , but should provide the functionality the client is after.

    The delay setting is same as the STP setting. If necessary, enter config spanningtree switch forwarddelay 4-30 to configure the controller STP forward delay in seconds. The default forward delay setting is 15 seconds.

    Before trying the stuff below, you might want to connect your AP back to the network, go to the controller CLI and issue the following command:
    debug capwap detail enable
    Watch watch messages are displayed when the AP fails to join.
    I can't my docs on how to do this, so I can't be sure these instructions are corrent...
    You may want to try and clear all the LWAPP/CAPWAP configuration that the AP has learned. While holding in the mode button, apply power to the AP (release the mode button after about 5 seconds). Via the console port, you should be able to get to a command prompt. Go to enable mode (password should be "Cisco" or "cisco" [without the quotes]. Once in enable mode, try issuing a "clear lwapp private-config" command. If that doesn't work, try working through the CLI help to see what clear options you have. You then might want to try and manually set up the AP. Sample commands to give it an IP address and point it towards a WLC are below.
    #clear lwapp private-config
    #lwapp ap hostname mynewap
    #lwapp ap ip address 10.77.244.199 255.255.255.224
    #lwapp ap ip default-gateway 10.77.244.220

  • Can't change LWAP association to different Controller

    I have a customer with LWAPs that are associated to a specific controller. They want to change the controller it's associated to, but it keeps returning to the original controller. They've tried assigning the Primary controller via WCS/WiSM, resetting the AP to default config, then resetting the LWAP.....the LWAP still associates with original controller.
    A new LWAP out of the box goes to the correct controller with no problem. So, there is still something in the previously assigned controller to an LWAP that is not being cleared. Can someone tell how we can do this?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Richard,
    Sorry about that :(
    You could try these two methods;
    Configuring Static Parameters to Register the Access Point to a Controller
    Using the password that the controller sent to the access point, enter into EXEC mode on the access point console. When the access point is running LWAPP or a recovery IOS image, you can configure the static IP address on the access point, the IP address on the controller, the access point hostname, and the default gateway IP address by entering these commands:
    •lwapp ap ip address ip-addr subnet-mask
    •lwapp ap controller ip address ip-addr
    •lwapp ap hostname ap-hostname
    •lwapp ap ip default-gateway ip-addr
    The access point with a recovery IOS image uses the static controller IP address to register to the specified controller and download the current LWAPP image. After the access point successfully registers to the controller, it receives configurations from the controller. The access point static hostname and the IP address of the controller are deleted from the access point configuration file. However, the access point static IP address and the netmask and the default gateway IP address are not deleted.
    When the access point is running a recovery IOS image, the commands to configure the static IP address on the access point, the IP address on the controller, the access point hostname, and the default gateway IP address are always enabled.
    These commands are disabled in the following cases:
    •When the access point is running an LWAPP image.
    •When the access point has an LWAPP configuration file in NVRAM.
    •When the access point is in REGISTERED state with the controller.
    The access point console displays the following error message if you enter any of these commands when they are disabled:
    "ERROR!!! Command is disabled."

  • Converting AIR-LAP1131G-A-K9 to LWAPP

    I noticed that this AP was $350 as compared to the AIR-LAP1131AG-A-K9 which is $450. The latter comes with an A radio which I don't need. But it comes shipped LWAPP which is good. Can I convert the cheaper one to LWAPP?
    The models are:
    http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/default.aspx?EDC=873163
    http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/default.aspx?EDC=1386702

    Sure you can. First, download the LWAPP image and do the following:
    Autonomous to LWAPP (Shortcut)
    Requirements:
    • Image file (The recovery file has the prefix “rcv” in the image name, such as c1200-rcvk9w7-tar.122-15.JA.tar);
    • AP is connected to the Wireless LAN Controller; and
    • AP can ping the TFTP server where the image is located.
    Procedure
    1. Copy the recovery file to the AP using the following command:
    archive tar /x tftp:/// flash:
    2. Let the AP boot on this image:
    boot system flash://.bin
    3. Reboot the AP.
    OPTIONAL
    • DO NOT ALLOW THE AP TO JOIN THE WIRELESS LAN CONTROLLER.
    • IF POSSIBLE, type the following commands:
     clear lwapp private-config (This will bring the AP to factory default.);
     clear lwapp ap ip address
     clear lwapp ap hostname
     clear lwapp ap controller ip address
    4. Let the AP connect to the Wireless LAN controller.
    OPTIONAL
    If an AP refuses to join the Wireless LAN Controller, type the following command from the AP:
    lwapp ap controller ip address
    Does this help?

  • Possible to convert autonomous AP to LWAPP via CLI?

    Hi,
    Probably a silly question but was wondering why it is not possible to convert an autonomous AP to LWAPP by using CLI commands?
    For example we have over 300 access points to convert and thought about using Linux to automate the task but seems there is only a windows conversion utility.
    Cheers,
    - Trevor

    Hi Trevor,
    You can convert AP to LWAP using CLI but this is entirely dependent on the model of AP you're dealing with. 1230, for example, requires the conversion tool. 1130, 1240 and 1250 can be converted using CLI. Here it is ...
    Requirements:
    • Image file (The recovery file has the prefix “rcv” in the image name, such as c1200-rcvk9w7-tar.122-15.JA.tar);
    • AP is connected to the Wireless LAN Controller; and
    • AP can ping the TFTP server where the image is located.
    Procedure
    1. Copy the recovery file to the AP using the following command:
    archive tar /x tftp:/// flash:
    2. Let the AP boot on this image:
    boot system flash://.bin
    3. Reboot the AP.
    OPTIONAL
    • DO NOT ALLOW THE AP TO JOIN THE WIRELESS LAN CONTROLLER IN ORDER TO USE THE OPTIONAL COMMANDS BELOW.
    • IF POSSIBLE, type the following commands:
     clear lwapp private-config (This will bring the AP to factory default.);
     clear lwapp ap ip address
     clear lwapp ap hostname
     clear lwapp ap controller ip address
    4. Let the AP connect to the Wireless LAN controller.
    OPTIONAL
    If an AP refuses to join the Wireless LAN Controller, type the following command from the AP:

  • LWAPP Conversion of 1252 AP failing

    Hello. I am having trouble performing a simple autonomous to lwapp conversion on a 1252 .11n AP. It is the LWAPP model number, but of course it shipped with Autonomous code on it. So I have to convert.
    I have version 3.4 of upgrade tool. I create the flat file with the one AP in it and enter all the necessary information. I use the upgrade tool TFTP server and navigate/select the image file: exact file is -> "c1250-rcvk9w8-tar.124-10b.JA3.tar". When I select upgrade I get an error indicating the recovery image is not a valid one.
    Does anyone know what I am missing here? Can someone outline the steps? This is my first conversion attempt as I have been running 1000 Series APs for the past 3 years.

    You cannot use the upgrade tool to do the IOS to LWAPP for the 1250 APs.
    Here is a method to do the conversion.
    *Method 1 : ( Mode Button )*
    1. Install an external TFTP tool such as tftpd32 tool from http://tftpd32.jounin.net/
    2. Assign IP address in the range 10.0.0.2 - .254 ( Ex : 10.0.0.3) to the tftp server (your laptop or pc).
    3. Download the IOS to lwapp image onto the tftp's root directory. Use http://www.cisco.com or
    http://tools.cisco.com/support/downloads/go/IPCheck.x?defAdv=N&sftAdv=N&image=c1250-rcvk9w8-tar.124-10b.JA3&filepath=/swc/esd/02/crypto/3DES/281235915/guest&filename=c1250-rcvk9w8-tar.124-10b.JA3&advUrl=null&isk=Y&defInd=N&mdfid=281235915&sftType=Autonomous%20To%20Lightweight%20Mode%20Upgrade%20Image&optPlat=&relVer=12.4(10b)JA3&fileId=271159&treeMdfId=278875243&treeName=Wireless
    4. Rename c1250-rcvk9w8-tar.124-10b.JA3 to c1250-rcvk9w8-tar.default
    5. Make sure you set the IP address on the BVI interface of the AP if not set. Set it in the 10.0.0.x range. Default is 10.0.0.1.
    6. Connect the Ethernet port on AP to your TFTP Server ( Laptop )
    7. Hold the mode button and power off the AP.
    8. Power back the AP while continually holding the mode button for 20-30
    seconds.
    *Method 2 : ( Archive Command )*
    1. Install an external TFTP tool such as tftpd32 tool from http://tftpd32.jounin.net/
    2. Assign IP address in the range 10.0.0.2 - .254 ( Ex : 10.0.0.3) to the tftp server (your laptop or pc).
    3. Download the IOS to lwapp image onto the tftp's root directory. Use http://www.cisco.com or

    4. Make sure you set the IP address on the BVI interface of the AP if not set. Set it in the 10.0.0.x range. Default is 10.0.0.1.
    5. Connect the Ethernet port on AP to your TFTP Server ( Laptop )
    6. On AP, type archive download-sw /overwrite /force-reload tftp:///c1250-rcvk9w8-tar.124-10b.JA3
    Going the other way (lwapp to autonomous)
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/conversion/lwapp/upgrade/guide/lwapnote.html#wp161272

  • LWAPP Initial config issue .

      Think I may be missing something here .  Get a new LWAPP from the factory a AIR-LAP1142N  .  I get into the console and set the hostname  and the controller name  via lwapp ap hostname  and lwapp ap controller ip address  commands  .  Plug it into the network , it pulls a dhcp address and it will almost immedialtely associate with the  controller i assigned and you can see it downloading code in the WISM .  It downloads the code and resets itself and it  never  finds the controller  again after that .  Doesn't it retain the controller address after the reload ?    I usually end up having to add a ip helper on the subnet its on pointing to the WISM address , you would think it would save the configured address specially after it initially talks to the WLC .  Am I missing something here  ?   .  

    Did you ever get this one resolved? I am having similar issues with my LAP1142N. I am trying to put it back on a DHCP assigned address, but cannot figure out a way to get the AP do that. I had assigned it a static address, ran into the issue that you reported, and now trying to put it back on the DHCP segment, but it does not get the address. Weird!

    Hi Ricardo,
    Using the CLI, follow these steps to configure primary, secondary, and tertiary controllers for a specific access point and to configure primary and secondary backup controllers for a specific controller.
    Step 1 To configure a primary controller for a specific access point, enter this command:
    config ap primary-base controller_name Cisco_AP [controller_ip_address]
    Note The controller_ip_address parameter in this command and the next two commands is optional. If the backup controller is outside the mobility group to which the access point is connected (the primary controller), then you need to provide the IP address of the primary, secondary, or tertiary controller, respectively. In each command, the controller_name and controller_ip_address must belong to the same primary, secondary, or tertiary controller. Otherwise, the access point cannot join the backup controller.
    Step 2 To configure a secondary controller for a specific access point, enter this command:
    config ap secondary-base controller_name Cisco_AP [controller_ip_address]
    Step 3 To configure a tertiary controller for a specific access point, enter this command:
    config ap tertiary-base controller_name Cisco_AP [controller_ip_address]
