LWAPP cannot translate cisco-lwapp-controller
Hi all:
I had add a hostname to DNS server as CISCO-LWAPP-CONTROLLER . and i use my controller as a internal DHCP server , it will assign ip to a lot of vlan. My lightweigh ap cannot translate the cisco-lwapp-controller and other a record at DNS server .
Can you translate that on the local lan? Verify that the manamgement and ap-manager is configured for vlan "0" untagged and that the trunk port is setup with the native vlan of the WLC management and ap-manager interface. If you console in the ap and power cycle the ap, what does the log show. Post the log so we can take a look at it.

Hello,
I am trying to get this officeextend working.
I connected the ap and checked the H-Reap box and then officeextend and gave it a public ip. This public ip is NAT'd to the dmz controller on the firewall. (The dmz controller is 5508 running code 6.0.199.4)
I have connected this officeextend 1132 ap to a broadband connection and this gets an ip of 192.168.1.23 on its fa0 interface. all good till now.
when i console onto the officeextend 1132 AP, i get an error msg could not resolve Cisco-LWAPP-Controller.abc.uk....domain server (192.168.1.254) and Cisco-CAPWAP-Controller.home.uk...think it needs DNS set to the public ip on the local asdl box, is it ?
if this is the case, I am not sure if i can do this as this is controlled by the ISPI have added this now scott on the management interface but still cant get the AP to join the controller. This AP is connected to a broadband wireless router connected back to a ADSL router that has the DNS settings
(also i cant see any traffic hitting on ports 5246 and 5247 on the firewall. so think this AP is not trying to go out )
it comes up with

You configuration is not correct. You can remove the line ‘domain-name CISCO-LWAPP-CONTROLLER.mydomain.com’ or replace it with ‘domain-name mydomain.com’ and configure the DNS server with both "CISCO-LWAPP-CONTROLLER.mydomain.com" and "CISCO-CAPWAP-CONTROLLER.mydomain.com" pointing to 172.16.00.25.
I suggest that you remove this line and forget about DNS and go for DHCP option 60 and 43 as you already have configured. You do not need both the DNS configuration and DHCP option 43.
Since you have configured ‘option 60 ascii "Cisco AP c1250"’ and ‘option 43 hex f104ac100019’ then your 1250s should try to associate with the controller 172.16.00.25.
Please post more of the syslog and look for events regarding DHCP option 43.
Is the address 172.16.00.25 for the WLC correct?

Which WLC interface should be resolved from cisco-lwapp-controller.domain
Hi,
we use several 4402 wlc and want the aps connect to connect to them via dns discovery.
It would be fine if somebody could tell me to which ip address (in our dns database) I have to add an alias for cisco-lwapp-controller.<domain>.
Is it the management interface, the ap manager interface or one/all dynamic interface(s)?
Is there any hint concerning this in the documentation?
Best Regards,
ThorstenYou use the management interface of the WLC.
Here is a good link also if you have issues:

Cisco 5760 controller in centralized mode supports 4404 controller as anchor controller?
Hello All,
I have a cisco 5760 controller running in centralized mode. I want to configure one 4404 controller as anchor controller to work with the 5760 controller. Is this supported?.
Thanks in advance
ShabeebNo, It is not supported.
You cannot have a mobility peer with 5760 unless you enable "new mobility" on its peer . In CUWN products this is supported in 5508/WiSM2/8510 on specific codes. In current supported codes it has to be 7.6.x or 8.x.
As you know 4400 only supported upto 7.0.x code. So new mobility is not supported, hence you cannot peer with CA products.
In case if you have a "new mobility" supported WLC, here how you configure it

Hyper-V Guest Cannot Find Host Domain Controller 2012 R2
Poweredge T320 server as a Domain Controller, file server and an EXCHANGE 2010 server. There are no other servers at the site.
DHCP is from the firewall. The DC and the file server will be on the host.
The 2010 EXCHANGE server will be on the guest. The Hyper-V
2012 R2 server cannot see the Domain Controller on the host 2012 R2 server.
The Active Directory is requesting to be promoted to a Domain Controller.
I have a logical or physical error in the installation.
It is asking to promote the Hyper-V guest 2012 R2 to a Domain Controller.
I believe I should have only one Domain Controller in this application.
After the Hyper-V guest can see the host domain controller I will install EXCHANGE 2010.
This is a test environment, offsite.

VLAN assignment without ACS on Cisco Wireless Controller 5508
I was wondering if it is possible to do dynamic VLAN assignment on the Cisco Wireless Controller 5508 without using Cisco ACS but use Microsoft NPS server instead? Is there a manual or article that someone can point me in the right direction?
Thank you!Any RADIUS server will allow you to do the dynamic vlan assignment if you configure the right RADIUS attributes (64, 65 and 81 that Steve mentioned above).
This doc shows example of dynamic vlan assignment with WLC and ACS.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_configuration_example09186a008076317c.shtml
Same config on WLC is needed. However, on the RADIUS you need to configure the same attributes on the NPS instead.

Cisco CAPWAP controller ????
Hi,
Really sorry if this isn't the right place but am desperate for help!
Have applied for a dream job for me to get into networking but one of the things that they have asked for that I haven't heard of before is a Cisco CAPWAP controller, is anyone able to explain the basics or it for me?
From quick web search it seems to be a type of wireless access point!
Any info would be useful.
Thanks
Sent from Cisco Technical Support iPad AppCAPWAP
The controller-based solution allows the splitting of 802.11 functions between the controller-based AP, which handles real-time
portions of the standard, and the Cisco WLC, which handles items that are not time sensitive. This model is called split MAC .
The AP handles the portions that have real-time requirements, such as the following:
■ Beacons management
■ 802.11 encryption and decryption
■ Frame buffering for dozing stations
■ Probe responses
■ Air monitoring for interferences and rogues
The controller handles all other functionalities, such as the following:
■ 802.11 authentication and association
■ QoS and security management
■ Mobility (roaming) management
■ RF management
■ Bridging to and from the DS in the right VLAN
Lightweight APs (LAP) communicate with the controller using a specific protocol, Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access
Points (CAPWAP). The LAP encapsulates all 802.11 data frames received from a client into a CAPWAP frame. The data frame
portion is simply encapsulated into a CAPWAP frame, and is not encrypted by default (data part encryption is possible but optional).
The LAPs also constantly exchange encrypted CAPWAP control messages with the controller via the Radio Resource Management
(RRM) engine for real-time RF management, including
■ Radio resource monitoring
■ Dynamic channel assignment
■ Interference detection and avoidance
■ Dynamic transmit power control
■ Coverage hole detection

I have Cisco 5508 controller in our high school. I changed the password for one of our WLANs yesterday.(WLANs>WLANs>WLAN in question (in my case OBSD-Internal)>Security>Layer 2. For some reason it reverted back to the previous password ( this was confirmed by a client attempting to connect). What could possibly cause this?
Hi Sean,
May be you did not saved the config on WLC(After changing the password).

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.
DipendraHi 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

Cisco wireless controller 4400
Hey all,
I was wondering does the Cisco Wireless controller 4400 come with any management software such as the Cisco Wireless Controller system software?
regards,
MarkWCS doesn't come with your WLC purchase you can down load a trial version of WCS from Cisco site. I think it is a 15 or 30 day trial.
You would have to purchase a license to run a full blown WCS. You can get this in either Linux or Windows.
Hope this helps you.

Dual Radio WGB and LWAPP Controller
Hallo everyone,
I have a wireless network managed by a 4402 controller with this sw version : 5.2.178.0
The client wants to add a stand alone wgb (cisco 1242 with an ios 12.4(21) ). The standalone ap associate to an LWAPP AP using the 5Ghz interface and propagate the same ssid at 2.4Ghz (I've also tried using a different ssid ). Actually the WGB is the only AP using that SSID at 2.4Ghz. As for the wired clients of the WGB I have no problems but if the client associate to the 2.4 Ghz SSID, I see it associated on the controller but no traffic from or to the client is allowed.
If for any case, the 5Ghz interface is resetted and the association betweeen the WGB and the controller is reformed, the 2.4Ghz client starts receiving and receiving traffic.
Any idea how to set things up from the the first association?
The wgb ssid is not set as infrastructure-client and the controller correclty identify it as a WGB client. In the same way the controller correclty see the 2.Ghz client like a wired client of the WGB but unless the association b.t.w the WGB and the controller is reset, no traffic reach the client.
I think that may be a problem related to how the IAPP protocol notify the presence of a client to WGB but I don't know how to work things out.. any idea?
Thank you in advance!The 3600 series Access Points can have either internal or external antennae. You can tell by looking at the top of the AP. If there are 4 antenna connections (one in each corner) then they are external antennae.
If you cannot get to the AP to check them physically, the antenna type is also denoted by the part number.
AIR-CAP3602I-x-K9 has internal antennae
AIR-CAP3602E-x-K9 has external antennae
The 3600 does have dual radios built in, operating in the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency ranges. However, for them to show up as such, you have to enable both radios on the AP. You can do this either through the WebUI or the CLI.
The 802.11ac option is an external module that is attached to the underside of the 3600 AP. Please find the datasheet for the module here:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/modules/ps12859/ps13128/data_sheet_c78-727794.html
The 1552c Series access points are also dual-radio systems and should also have both radios turned on through the WebUI or CLI. Note the quote " The Cisco Aironet 1552C/1552CU Outdoor Mesh Access Points are dual-radio systems with DOCSIS 3.0/EuroDOCSIS 3.0 (8x4 HFC) compliant cable modem for power and backhaul." taken from the datasheet for these APs found here:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/wireless/ps5679/ps11451/data_sheet_c78-641373.html
Cisco ships the APs with one Radio enabled and if you want the dual-radio functionality, you have to turn that on. Once that is done, you should see the APs show up correctly in the WLC 5508.
