Port channel WLC 5508 and 3750

Hi All,
I want to configure Port channel for WLC 5508 and cisco 3750 Stack Switch. What changes I need to make on WLC and where?
Thanks
Jagdev

Thanks Chris,
LAG is enable on WLC, and Port channel is configured on 3750, Please see the configration and Port channel status below:-

Port Channels - WLC 5508 and 4510

LACP and PAgP are not supported on the controller and it appears that the 4500 series will not use LAG.

I am getting the error, "lacp not enabled on remote port..". I removed the 2nd fiber cable and removed the channel-group so I could get the WLC back online. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In order to get the ether channel to work with the WLC you need to change your configuration from:
interface GigabitEthernet3/1
channel-group 10 mode active
interface GigabitEthernet3/2
channel-group 10 mode active
To mode ON
interface GigabitEthernet3/1
channel-group 10 mode on
interface GigabitEthernet3/2
channel-group 10 mode on
Mode ON tells the switch to do Link Aggregation Protocol and does try and negotiate using one of the two control protocols LACP or PAgP.
using mode ON is part of the configuration guide when enabling Cisco WLC LAG option.

WLC 5508 and LAP1310 - Not syncing up!

As the title states I have a WLC 5508 and a LAP1310 that will not sync up.
The error stated in the traps log is "AP with MAC (xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx) is unknown."
WLC software release is : 7.2.103.0
IOS on the AP is : 12.4(18a)JA2
Upon some investigation I found that the "AP with MAC is unknown" error usually points to one of two things:
A. WLC firmware needs to be updated
B. AP needs to be updated.
C. The AP is not compatible with the WLC.
I am leaning toward solution C and I am looking for a conformation or a correction, if anyone could help out that would be greatly appreciated!
I've tried reading the compatibility matrix released by Cisco, but I found it mildly confusing as to what is and isn't supported by each software release.

Problem 11: 1250 LAP Not Able to Join WLC
The setup consists of a 2106 WLC that runs version 4.1.185.0. A Cisco 1250 AP is not able to join the controller.
The log on the WLC shows this:
Mon Jun 2 21:19:37 2008 AP with MAC f0:2x:cf:2x:1d:3x (APf02x.cf2x.1d3x) is unknown.
Mon Jun 2 21:19:37 2008 AP Associated. Base Radio MAC: f0:2x:cf:2x:1d:3x
Mon Jun 2 21:19:26 2008 AP Disassociated. Base Radio MAC:f0:2x:cf:2x:1d:3x
Mon Jun 2 21:19:20 2008 AP with MAC f0:2x:cf:2x:1d:3x (APf02x.cf2x.1d3x) is unknown.
Mon Jun 2 21:19:20 2008 AP Associated. Base Radio MAC: f0:2x:cf:2x:1d:3x
Mon Jun 2 21:19:09 2008 AP Disassociated. Base Radio MAC:f0:2x:cf:2x:1d:3x
Mon Jun 2 21:19:03 2008 AP with MAC f0:2x:cf:2x:1d:3x (APf02x.cf2x.1d3x) is unknown.
Solution: This is because the Cisco 1250 series LAP is not supported on version 4.1. The Cisco Aironet 1250 Series AP is supported from controller versions 4.2.61 and later. In order to fix this issue, upgrade the controller software to 4.2.61.0 or later.
Problem 16: 1000 series LAPs not able to join the Wireless LAN controller, WLC runs version 5.0
This is because WLC software release 5.0.148.0 or later is not compatible with Cisco Aironet 1000 series APs. If you have a Cisco 1000 series LAP in a network, which runs WLC versions 5.0.48.0, the 1000 series LAP does not join the controller and you see this trap message on the WLC.
"AP with MAC xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx is unkown"

What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
What are the properties of this .mp4 video import (video and audio compressions, frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, pixel aspect ratio)?
If you have any information about the video bitrate and audio bitrate of the file, that would be good to know.
What is the audio - stereo 2 channel or 5.1 channel?
What are you (manually) or the project automatically setting as the project preset to match the properties of your source video?
Let us start here and then decide what next.

An issue with WLC 5508 and 7921 phone

Hello all!
I have a system with WLC 5508 and some 1242 APs. And I use a lot of 7921 phones.
One of 7921 phones was in trouble. It loses registration, disconnect conversations...
I installed the trial WLC and run voice diagnostics.
I saw some of "Potentially degraded QoS in downlink direction because of incorrect packet classification" messages and one "Fair upstream packet loss ratio: 1,2%, which is less than threshold 2.5%"
As I understand all of 7921 phones in these area are affected.
what does it mean? I set up Platinum QoS for voice WLAN. I don't have any qos configuration string for AP and WLC ports on switches...
any ideas?
thanx in advance

Sergey:
There is one application called "WLC Config analyzer". You save your "show run-config" from your WLC in a text file and import it by this application. it will analyze the file for you and tell you what recommendations for voice are missing so you improve them.
When importing a config file you choose what voice clinets you are using, so you need to choose cisco 7921 to it tells you what config improvemetns is needed based on 7921 needs.
Here is the link to download the application:
https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-1373
download the latest versoin.
BTW, how many voice/data clients are connected to one AP in that area? if I remember correctly if you are utilizing voice then the max number of clients connected to one AP should not exceed 17. If you have more than this number per AP try to minimize the number of users concurrently connected to the AP then try again.
Hope you'll find the config analyzer useful.
If useful please don't forget to rate.

WLC 5508 and associated AP's

Hi,
I have a problem with a poor signal. I have two WLC 5508 and 10 ap's 3502. So, that I have two wlc on the network I decided to divide this 10 ap's.
WLC 5508 has 7.0.98 software version.
The 5 first ap was associated to one wlc and the other 5 to second controller.
Two problems was observed, first that some clients which try connect to AP associated to second controller have problem to obtain IP address from DHCP pool on first wlc.
The second problem is that on this two WLC was configured two DHCP pool. One controller assigns address for a dedicated WLAN and the second wlc assigns address for a second WLAN.
This two WLAN's is broadcast on two wlc.
Kamil

Hi Nicolas,
The APs are 3502I model and now are located on the lower ceiling.
From Thursday all APs are associated to only one WLC the second one is just only as a backup and from this time there are not any problems with a signal. This information is directly from clients.
The DHCP pool is located on the first WLC now.
Also, I considered to use switch or other machine as a DHCP pool but it's problematic to deploy now.

WLC 5508 and remote site (DMVPN) Access Points

Hi All,
We just purchased a WLC 5508 and would like to know if it will control remote VPN site Access Points. Here are the details:
The 5508 will live at our home office. We have multiple remote sites that are connected via Cisco's DMVPN. Each site has one Cisco 1131 Access Point hanging off of either a Cisco 1841 or a 2811 that is using DMVPN back to the home office 2811. Can the 5508 manage the remote Access Points?
Thanks for your help guys!

thx

Looks to be wither a duplicate address issue or a configuration issue. Try to test with only using the 2.4ghz and then again with only the 5ghz and see if you see a difference.

WLC 5508 And Third Party SSL for Web Authenticaiton

Hello,
We are using WLC 5508 and currently the authentication process is via Customized WebAuth. As you know that with the WebAuth the authentication process won't work unless you launch Web Browser and you will be redirected to the Authentication Page where you type your username and password. This is a bit fuzzy for most of the users and what I'm thinking is to use different authentication mechanism where the user will automatically be prompted upon connecting to any SSID. I have read that Public/Thrid Party certificate will do this and any client can accept the public certificate.
Anyone can elaborate on this approach?
Regards,

With machines that are not part of the domain, typicall if you still want to secure them usin 802.1x, you would leverage a radius server and users would be told of the SSID to connect to and enter their AD credentials. Of course, if you use AD credentials, users will now join all their other devices to that SSID. This is where ISE comes in and you can profile devices. Even though the WLC with v7.6 can profile, it's not a full fledge profiler. Depending on how well you know radius, you can leverage a portal page also and depending on the AD group a user is a member of, you can out them is a specific Vlan or if you leverage interface groups. You can do many things, but you need to really know radius and client types to figure out what can and work well in your environment. Radius alone to someone who hasn't played with it, can take days to setup without help.
Every client I setup radius for is different and it comes down to how their users are setup in AD, what devices they have and the requirements.

Integration between WLC 5508 and Microsoft NPS 2008

Hi guys,
Any of you, have working guidance for WLC 5508 and Microsoft NPS 2008 integration?
I managed to configure Wireless 802.1x feature (PEAP) but it failed. I'm running software ver. 7.0.116.0.
Is there any bug related 802.1x on this software version?
thanks in advance.

shendy

Hi Shendy,
I am not aware about any bug related to this. I think you better check all configuration and make sure it is fine.
Logs from NPS and WLC (and possibly from the supplicant) may guide you where the problem resides.
What does the NPS logs tell about the reason of the authentication failure?
What does the WLC logs say about the failure (check show msglog and show traplog).
- Make sure the Radius server added correctly with correct IP and correct shared secret on WLC.
- Make sure that the radius is configured correctly to allow PEAP-MSCHAPv2.
- Make sure WLC is added successfully to WLC with correct IP address and correct shared secret.
- Make sure the clients are correctly configured and the server's (NPS) certificate is trusted on the clients.

FC Port Channel between UCS and MDS.

Hi All,
I am new to Cisco Fabric Concepts. In my enviornment i have a F port channel(8 Port Group) created on MDS 9513 switch and this Fport
channel is connected to Cisco UCS 6296 FI. The Cisco UCS Blade servers are connected to the Fabric Interconnect .
On MDS NPIV is enabled.
Can anyone explain the below questions.
1. Why do we create an F port Channel Group and connect it to the UCS FI? Is this something similar to Brocade Edge to AG Switch Connectivity.
2. How to configure F port Channel Group in MDS . Can anyone explain with an example.
3. Do we need to make any Configuration on UCS FI ports for server connectivity and Channel port Connectivity if yes what are the steps required to
do the same.Does the WWPN shows up in the FLOGI Database if the connectivity and configuration looks good in UCS FI and MDS.
4. What happens when a VSAN on MDS switch is added to the Port Channel.
Thanks and Regards,
Santosh surya

Look at my remarks in

1. Why do we create an F port Channel Group and connect it to the UCS FI? Is this something similar to Brocade Edge to AG Switch Connectivity.
F port channel is proprietary; therefore any such F port channel between UCS FI and Brocade doesn't work.
2. How to configure F port Channel Group in MDS . Can anyone explain with an example.
see eg.

flogi database is on the MDS, not FI; there are however UCS CLI commands, like "show npv ...."
4. What happens when a VSAN on MDS switch is added to the Port Channel.
If its not created on UCS, it will just not become the status "up"

SAN Port Channel between 6120 and Brocade

Has anyone setup or know how to setup a SAN Port Channel between 6120s and a Brocade FC switch? I know that it requires UCS firmware 1.4 but I don't know what the Brocade requirements are.

The SAN port channel is Cisco proprietory. You cannot setup SAN port channel with Brocade. Sorry

Port-channel between ACE4710 and switch

Hi all,
I have configured port-channels on ACE and switch. Full-duplex and speed 1000Mbps are set on both sides. The configurations of port-channel on both sides is same. But there are output drops on the switch. See:
Last clearing of "show interface" counters 00:31:24
Input queue: 0/75/0/0 (size/max/drops/flushes); Total output drops: 536
Why there are output drops on the switch? There is no half-duplex and both sides have the same speeds.
Thank you
Roman

Hi Roman,
Please paste the configuration of the ACE and Switch

LACP port channel between 6509 and Nexus 7K

We are in the process of migrating from dual 6509's to dual 7010's. We have moved our 5k/2K's behind the 7K and have layer 2 up between the 6509 and 7K. This link is configured as a port channel with 2 1gig links using LACP. The port channel is up and working and traffic is passing but it doesn't appear the load it equally distributed between the links. Both the 7K and 6K are setup for src-dst-ip for the load balancing. The links have been in place for over 12 hours and I would have expected them to "equal" out. Has anyone had this issue in or is this to be expected? For clarification there is not VPC inolved in this configuration it is simply a port-channel between one 6509 and a 7010.
Thanks,
Joe
