Multiple SSID channel question

I have 2 (for now) Aironet 1231g access points setup. They each have two SSIDs being broadcast on each one, both are the same two SSIDs. The question is, can can two different ssids from a single ap broadcast on the same channel. That means I would have both ssids broadcast on channel 6 on one of the APs then broadcast them both on channel 11 on the other? Or would each individual ssid have to be on its own non-overlapping channel? Both SSIDs are on seperate vlans. As of now it looks like it is working fine, I just want to make sure I have it configured the way it should be to work the best.

Hi Chris.
Channels are by radio, not SSID.
Exmaple
(AP#1) Channel 1
SSID - TEST1
SSID - TEST2
(AP#2) Channel 11
SSID - TEST1
SSID - TEST2
As you can see your TEST 1 will broacast on channel 1 and 11 ...
Make sense?

Single access point with multiple ssids and single channel possible?

Hi everybody.
I have this silly question.
Let say we have three vlans, vlan1,2,3 and they are mapped to wlans as follows:
Vlan 1 ssid1
Vlan 2 ssid2
Vlan3 ssid 3
AP --------trunk------Switchted network.
Our Ap has mobile devices in three wlans, i.e ssid1ssid2 and ssid3
Since AP uses half duplex mode, mobile devices need positive ack from ap before they can send data, therefore once channel let say channel 3( assuming 802.11b is used) can be shared by all mobile devices in three wlans.
Is my understanding correct?
Thanks and have a great weekend.

Hii ,
Yes ,that is pretty much possible as suggested by other experts on board. Depending on your access point you will have 1 (2.4 GHz) or both 2.4 & 5GHz radios.
You can configure multiple SSIDs (up to 16 ) known as MBSSID mode in autonomous environment. In Controller based architecture you can configure up to 512 WLAN (SSID) and transmit any 16 of them per AP (using AP group feature). However , it is recommended to keep multiple SSID count below 8 as for each SSID separate beacon will be sent on air which consumes more air time.
Hope this helps

Multiple SSID with different Login Web authority pages

Our current setup is one Anchor control and then several WLC’s, I want to know if I can have multiple SSID and use different Web Auth pages form them, so I can have a SSID that requires a password to Authentication access and another SSID that requires pass through Authentication but they would have different web authentication pages and go to different pages once Authenticated.
Is this possible to ?

Hi,
If you are running WLC software 4.2 and above then u can do this on per WLAN basis.. here is the link which tells on how to do it..

Is it possible to do multiple ssids and encryptions on an autonomous AP without vlans?

I got a customer who just has autonomous APs. They are upgrading from 1210s to 1262s. They are currently running a config that is wide open with no authentication or encryption and using a VPN tunnel on the wireless clients for security. They want to switch to using WPA2/PSK with the new APs. They have existing clients that have to continue to work during the upgrade to the new APs. They run 3 shifts so it is a 24 hr operation with no downtime. What I was thinking would be to configure the 1262 with multiple SSIDs, one with their existing settings and one with the new. Then I could swap the APs one at a time and it would only impact service for a short period of time while I was mounting the new AP. Then once all the new APs are installed I could transition the clients over to the new SSID and encryption then disable the old SSID once all the clients are switched over. I've done this before with a WLC but not with an autonomous APs. The only config examples I can find uses VLANs. This customer is not using VLANs. Is there anyway to use multiple SSIDs with different encryption on a single radio on an autonomous 1262 without VLANs?
The site has about 30 APs and 100 clients. Yes I know a controller would be preferred for a site of this size but that is a question for sales and why they didn't see them a controller. I just get stuck with what they sell them.
thanks

Hi Don,
Im afraid on the autonmous platform you can not map multiple WLANS to a single vlan.

Using multiple SSID with AP 1100 (standalone mode).

Hi, need to configure 2 SSID on the same 1100 AP: open authentication and WPA2. It's possible to configure these 2 SSID without configuring VLAN's ?
On CCO I've read the following:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps430/products_qanda_item09186a008009483e.shtml
Q. How many service set identifiers (SSIDs) can you have per VLAN?
A. You can have only one SSID per VLAN. The use of multiple SSIDs over a single VLAN is not supported with Aironet APs.
It's also true with the latest IOS release ?

Hi Roberto,
Hopefully the attached docs will answer your question:
Cisco Aironet 1100 Series
Using VLANs with Cisco Aironet Wireless Equipment
Deprecated versions of Cisco Aironet software permit binding multiple SSIDs to one VLAN. Current versions do not.

(Optional) Assign the SSID to a VLAN on your network. Client devices that associate using the SSID are grouped into this VLAN. You can assign only one SSID to a VLAN.

1242AG Wireless Access Point - Cannot Get DHCP IP for BVI1 interface - Multiple SSIDs...

Hello,
I am attempting to set up three Cisco 1242AG Wireless Access Points with multiple SSID's. I used the web interface and directions online to set up the two networks I want and at least one of the networks work wirelessly.
However, I have two problems:
The first, which is the most important, is that the "management" interface, BVI1, doesn't get an ip address from our DHCP server. I set the VLAN 60 (which you'll see in the documenation below) to be the native VLAN on the device as well as on the switch that the device is connected to as well as other settings in the configeration file below. Because of this, I can only manage the device via the console port which would be a huge pain once all of the devices are mounted.
The second problem is that I am not sure how to get both wireless networks broadcasting their SSID's. I have to manually type in the SSID for the second wireless network I have which I would prefer I don't have to. Anyway I can enable broadcasting on all of the SSID's?
Thank you for your time.
Regards,
Christopher Koeber

I am using a third party DHCP server which is our Windows Domain Controller. I have the ip helper-address set for the native vlan of the Access Point through a layer 3 distribution switch (a Catalyst 4506) that the current switch connects to.
I didn't see any event on the logs for the AP.
Let me know if I need to do something else.
Thanks.

Multiple SSIDS and disappearing

We have Cisco 3602i access points for the most part, all of which advertise multiple SSIDs.
Very occasionally we see an SSID completely disappear from view, even though others remain solid (I can't say it's all devices as the majority of people who raise the issue have apple devices, but there are the odd one or two who use Windows laptops).
Also, the RSSI seems to fluctuate wildly.
I should add that we have disabled up to 11mbps data rates on the controller and we're running 7.6.100.0 currently, but plan to upgrade to 7.6.110.0 tonight.
I guess my question is how can an SSID just drop off the client view if others on the same AP are fine?
How does the AP deal with multiple SSIDs and does it prioritise?
I have to add that I've never had this issue and I'm just using a company standard HP laptop with an Intel chipset.

Hello,
See my comments:
Also, the RSSI seems to fluctuate wildly.
A: This is often how a device hears the frames. Sometimes in high interference you can epxect this to jump around. I normally like to see if all the devices are doing this or just a select few. Sometimes poor clients jump around more than others.
I should add that we have disabled up to 11mbps data rates on the controller and we're running 7.6.100.0 currently, but plan to upgrade to 7.6.110.0 tonight.
A: I dont think turning off lower rates are bad unless your WiFi cant support the design. Good call get on the latest.
I guess my question is how can an SSID just drop off the client view if others on the same AP are fine?
A: Again, its a client missing frames like beacons.
How does the AP deal with multiple SSIDs and does it prioritise?
A: This SSIDs are virtualized. I blogged how this is done:
http://www.my80211.com/home/2011/5/2/wlc-how-cisco-virtualizes-the-base-radio-mac-address-on-the.html
I have to add that I've never had this issue and I'm just using a company standard HP laptop with an Intel chipset.
A: Again I think if you search you might see this is more around specific devices. I would do a packet capture and see what is going on. Recently had to troubleshoot an Android only to find out it was just bad wifi client. Always sending NULL frames and scanning and not passing traffic

Wireless Network Management with Multiple SSIDs in one Wireless Profile

Could anybody explain me about how Multiple SSIDs in one Wireless Network Name (Network Profile) ? Configuration will be pushed to Windows 7 Pro from Wins Server 2008 R2.
Objective: Multiple office locations will have different SSIDs and when the laptop user travels one location to another, he/she could connect to wireless networks at any offices without any configuration change but utilizing "Automatically use my Windows
logon name and password (and domain if any.)" setting in EAP MSCHAPv2 properties.
Network Name: Enterprise
SSIDS: SFO-WIFI, LAX-WIFI,CHI-WIFI,NYC-WIFI,
Network Type:Access Point
Security Type: WPA2-Enterprise
Encryption Type: AES
Network Authentication Method: Microsoft:Protect EAP(PEAP)
My question is: (1) Will Windows try all the SSIDs in order to get connected to the Wireless Network at the office? (Let's say, user is in NYC, but will Windows try to find SFO-WIFI SSID first, wait until time out, retry?, and moves on to LAS-WIFI SSID,
wait until time out, retry?, and moves on to CHI-WIFI and finally tries NYC-WIFI SSID and found the SSID in the beacon from Access Point and authenticates through RADIUS?
(2) If the answer is YES, what is the waiting time/timeout setting for one SSID before moves on to another?
(3) If the answer is NO, what is the process to get user connected to NYC-WIFI SSID when he/she is in NYC office within the range of that SSID?

Hello Ninjago_2224,
About the multiple office location have different SSIDs, does the location A has the signal used in
location D?
Please go to Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network and Sharing Center
, and then click Manage wireless networks.
The windows will try to connect to these networks in the order listed.
Please check if the four SSID pushed by Windows Server 2008 is listed as mentioned above.
If the location A have the location D SSID and the location D SSID has higher priority, the Windows will connect to
location D SSID.
So about the question 1, the Windows will try the SSID in order.
About the question 2, I can’t find the accurate time that test one SSID and move to another. But based on my test, it is very fast.
For more information, please take a look at the following article.

Export MXF with multiple audio channels for broadcast

Hi,
I work at a broadcast company as an editor. We always used FCP with the free sony xdcam plugin to export. This plugin seems to be one of the rare ways to export an MXF with 4 audio channels. I don't know exactly why we need to export it for broadcasting with 4 audio channels, but we do.
Since our workload has grown enormously the last few months and it will only become more we are optimizing our workflow. We also work with a lot of different endboards in After Effects and we made a nice template to work with. And since AE and Premiere can make a dynamic link we are considering changing from FCP to Premiere.
Now comes the question!: The only obstacle we could not find an answer to is exporting it with 4 audio channels as an MXF from Premiere CS5. Will there be some development on this level regarding CS6?
A solution to this should save us a lot of time!
Any help will be highly appreciated!
I also attached an example for the usual MXF files we export

I have the same problem. I have a project with multiple audio channels and I want to export them as individual channels in a MXF-file.
Method:
When I created a new sequence I choose "Multichannel" from the "Tracks" page. When I export the MXF OP1a, I choose 8 channels from the "Audio" page. None of the channels are muted.
Result:
The rendered file contains 8 channels, but only the first two channels contains any audio (main left + right), the rest of the channels are empty. Channel 1 and 2 contains the audio from all channels, but I want the channels to be seperated in the same way as they are layered in Premiere.
I don't understand your answer to wleoni75's question. Could you please help me further?

NPS, wifi, multiple SSIDs - multiple policies?

We are setting up a new wireless network with multiple SSID's. We plan on having an internal network, a guest network, and a personal devices network. The questions is how do authenticate against multiple policies on the same NPS server? Our current NPS server authenticates against AD group AND AD user account for the internal network. If I want to authenticate the personal devices SSID against the NPS, can I set up a different policy for it only?
My understanding is that when a user/device queaeries the NPS, it goes down the policy until it finds a match and then allows access. Is this true? Thanks

Thanks,
Basically we want to use NPS to authenticate our wireless users and we also want to use NPS to regulate access into our switches/network devices. If I create a policy for example wireless that says If user is part of domain users, then grant access, how do I Create another policy that regulates who can log into my switches? Since the policy matches, it allows the user to log into the switch. Does this make any sense? Do I need a separate NPS/AAA server to authenticate my cisco switches/routers? THanks

Multiple SSID's on the same subnet?

Can you have Multiple SSID's on the same subnet?
SSID1 authenticates clients via radius.
Our corporation bought printers with wireless cards that only support WPA-PSK so we created SSID2 for the printers. We can connect to both SSID's and ping from SSID1 to SSID2 but we can not perform other functions such as view the printer management interface with a browser. Should it be possibe to communicate between SSID1 and SSID2 on the same subnet?

Yes you should have no issue, but the only thing is that you are using a lower security method... so either you put them on different subnets so you can control the traffic via acl's or might as well use the same security method to make it easier. The fact that you can ping sounds like you should be able to http to the device.

What could be causing my multiple response survey question to show a non-response in LMS report?

I have a 10 question survey that has been running fine and providing accurate responses in reports generated from my LMS. I made a property change to a multiple response type question that is now causing the reports to show a date/time (2003-01-01 18:00:00) response instead of the actual multiple responses the user made. The change I made to the question was to change the "Numbers property from" [ a), b), c) ] to [ 1), 2), 3) ]. This property change did not affect the reported responses for the single response questions, only the multi-response. This problem occured Using Captivate 4. I then tried using the same properties in Captivate 5.5 thinking it was a bug in CP4, but got the same results. Has anyone else run into this issue? I'm going to bring this to the attention of my LMS provider, but want to make sure CP is clean first.
Thanks,
Dave

First things first. I am not an LMS expert, so this is not about troubleshooting.
However, to ensure that your course works fine on a SCORM-compliant LMS, you can upload it to cloud.scorm.com and test it out. If the course works fine there, rest assured that it will work fine on any SCORM-compliant LMS. If your LMS team comes back with an issue after this, you can counter them with this evidence that the problem is with the LMS and not your course.

LSMW datamigration material master with multiple distribution channels

Hi,
We plan on using the LSMW to migrate our customer's material master to a ECC 6.0 system.
Currently we use the BMM00 and BMMH1 structures, but there I can specify only one distribution channel.
Does anyone know how to include multiple distribution channels in LSMW material master migration?
Thanks in advance for your support.
Edited by: Mohammed Qasim Malik on Jan 21, 2008 10:01 AM

you need an extra record in your source per distibution channel.
Alternative you can create the extra record with a small Abap code in LSMW in section __END_OF_RECORD__
There you habe in standard the code:
transfer_record.
just add after this statement a statement that gets the additional wanted distribution channel into the distribution channel field.
BMM00-VTWEG = 'xx'.
transfer_record.

Knuckleheaded Alpha Channel Question of the Week

OK...I rarely monkey around in Motion, but I have amazingly just created about 10 different animated versions of my client's logo for use in various films (cut in SD in FCP). I need to be able to library these rascals so I can just drop them into FCP when I need them.
However, and here is where the knucklehead deal enters the picture.
I am baffled as to how to export the logos out of Motion so there is no black background! I want to create a QT file of each version that I can library and then import into FCP. I have already checked the all of the Alpha channel questions dealing with this issue and the answers are like me and algebra in the 7th grade...huh?
Can somebody give me the kindergarten version of how to get rid of the black background behind my little purple animated logo.
Thanks in advance and I promise to close Motion and step away from the keyboard as soon as one of you mavens helps me solve my little non power user dilemma.

Easiest would be not to export at all, but save a different project file for each version - then just bring the Motion project file into FCP. As long as you have set the background to be transparent (Edit > Project Properties), then the project file will have transparency.
If you want to export, you need to choose a codec that supports an alpha channel, such as Animation or PNG.
