Universal WorkGroup Bridge (uWGB) support dropped for 1130AG?

why Cisco dropped support for this in 1130AG model?
What was the last version of IOS that supported it?

Hi David,
what makes you say that the support for that got dropped ?
I have a 1130 on my desk running 12.4.25 and it definitely can be configured for universal WGB ...
This said, it's a bet strange to configure a ceiling-mountable AP for uWGB but you probably have your reasons :-)

Why was Extension Manager support dropped for Bridge?

Title says it all. Adobe Extension Manager supported Bridge in CS4, CS5 and CS5.5 and now it doesn't. From what I understand, the simple addition of the "configuration" folder and the files it contains from a CS5.5 installation suddenly makes it work, so my question is: why was this dropped for CS6? Is there more to it?

Windows 7 support dropped for Mac Pro 2013

I have sent feedback to Apple already as I understand from the support page Windows 7 x64 support has been dropped for the new Mac Pro.
Bearing in mind the corporate workstation market has largely shunned Windows 8/8.1 I find the dropping of support inexplicable and plain daft to enable the Mac Pro to take market share from the windows hardware domain.
My clients have purchased two Mac Pro's on launch day on the prerequisite that they can run Windows 7 with the possibility of more orders after the new year once testing is complete. Unless it can be made to work using EFI boot which as I suspect is the reason support and can easily be worked around you lose in my case 2 orders with the possibility if 10/20 more after. No workaround will mean cancelled orders.
Hopefully if enough of us air our disappointment Apple will reconsider because they will lose a sizeable chunk of sales because of this near sighted policy.

If what you say is true, then it would be a question of hardware support capabilities in Win 7, not a near-sighted policy. In any event, these are user forums. You aren't speaking to Apple, so I suggest you speak to Apple. Don't complain here. It's inappropriate and violates the Terms of Use.

1602 AP - Workgroup Bridge Cannot Associate to Parent AP

Hi All,
For a few weeks now, I have been trying to connect a Cisco 1602 standalone AP to our unified wireless network as a workgroup bridge. Eventually this AP is to be moved to another wireless network where I will need it to run in universal workgroup bridge mode (for non Cisco wireless networks), so I just want to get this working in the office before I take it elsewhere and try to get that to work, as the configuration will be similar.
So far I've been unable to get this 1602 AP to associate to our network. The particular SSID I'm trying to set up is a BYO style SSID, normally if you connect a device you provide your Active Directory username / password and your laptop / phone / whatever connects. I know the username is fine because if I use it on another device it's not a problem.
The AP keeps repeating this message: %DOT11-4-CANT_ASSOC: Interface Dot11Radio0, cannot associate: Associating. Cisco.com tells me that this is to do with MFP, however I've changed a number of MFP settings in the SSID and this seems to have made no difference.
I'm thinking this is a problem with authentication or association. I have a question, why do I need to input Radius server information into the config (eap_methods)? When you connect a regular device to this SSID it doesn't require any Radius server settings in order to connect, I don't understand why the AP needs these settings. Also, when authenticating to AD, do you need to include the domain name as part of the username?
Wireless isn't my strong point unfortunately. Is anyone able to help with this? Config and log is below. Many thanks.

With PEAP there is a certificate being used on the radius server for securing the first phase (outer tunnel). In this scenario the access-point acts like a dot1x client, so like any other client it has to validate the certificate the radius server uses. Therefor the root certificate (and intermediates, if being used) needs to be installed on the access-point.
I never configured an WGB in this way, so I fired on my lab to see if I could get it to work. Sadly I did not manage to get it to work properly, I'm running into "EAP session timed out" messages in ACS (my radius server). I did also ran into the MFP issue, but as long as you configure MFP as optional on the network side, it should work. Because of the CCIE exam, I'm running old AirOS software on the WLC and also the software on the access-point I tested this configuration on (2600) is not that new. So it could be that I ran into a bug testing this, so I would advise you to run the latest software on your 1600. There are WGB related bugs fixed not so long ago. This configuration is supported since IOS 15.2.2(JA) and higher.
If I look at your configuration you still need to actually install the certificate, the trustpoint is empty. Besides that the following configuration changes needs to be made:
eap profile EAPTLS
no method mschapv2
method peap
dot11 ssid BYO
authentication open eap PEAP
   no authentication shared eap eap_methods
authentication network-eap PEAP
authentication key-management wpa version 2
dot1x credentials MyCreds
dot1x eap profile EAPTLS
   no infrastructure-ssid
   no ids mfp client optional

H-REAP and Workgroup Bridge

Has anyone setup a Workgroup Bridge on a remote H-REAP site and got it working? I have the AP associated to the controller but the AP cannot ping the controller and the controller cannot see the wired clients on the AP.

Hello, yes we current have many WGB's connected to FlexConnect LAP's. Support for connecting to FlexConnect LAP's (formerly H-REAP) has been added in WLC Code 7.3. Please refer to release notes: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/release/notes/crn73.html
Thank you.

Apple only supports Windows on certain hardware.
http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
Apple provides their framework for Windows to run on a Mac, a piece of software called a Hybrid MBR that bridges the gap between how Windows reads the drive partition table (MBR) and EFI/GUID partition table that Mac's use.
It doesn't mean Windows can't run on your Mac, a third party solution called rEFIt will also bridge the gap and allow booting of more that just Windows, Linux as well for a triple booting computer.
Your hardware has to meet the other requirements the second and third operating system needs as as being able to install drivers that will work for your hardware, especially the fans or they will run loud and fast by default.
http://refit.sourceforge.net/
This above is a advanced procedure which requires knowledge how computers and various operating systems, drive formats and so forth work.
I even admit I don't know everything myself, but I experiment on a separate piece of Mac hardware (out of warranty/AppleCare) designed for this purpose so in case something screws up I'm not taking down my only machine and can use the other to get online and find solutions.
There is a very high potential for losing your data if your using advanced/non-Apple methods to install Windows on your only Mac where Apple doesn't support it. Also one shouldn't be doing this on Mac hardware that is under AppleCare or warranty as it might be voided. Proceed at your own risk and education.

Cisco AP1121G Workgroup Bridge Problem

Hello,
For reference I have attached the following:
Network Diagram
Ping Results Table
Configurations for 1811 router, ap1121g root access point, ap1121g wgb.
I am seeking assistance with the following problem.
Referring to the attached network diagram, I cannot communicate past the ap1121g-wgb in either direction.
Also attached is a result table of ping attempts through the ap1121wgb from each side.
I don't have a problem with the wireless connections. The ap1121g's associate ok.
Based on the ping results the problem appears to be in the ap1121g-wgb configuration, but I have run out of ideas.
The following two cisco documents have been my main reference, besides the cisco command lookup site.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/customer/products/hw/wireless/ps430/products_configuration_example09186a00805b9b87.shtml
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/12.4_21a_JA1/configuration/guide/scg12421aJA1-chap19-wgb-standby.pdf
Any insight will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks...

Robert,
Going back to your original post and looking through the example given in the first URL, I spotted a few lines in the example configurations which apply to older revisions of code, but not newer AP code, so they may be misleading. Based on the parameter availability of station-role workgroup-bridge in your last message, would you be wiling to try the following?
Reset both 1121 APs to factory default configuration (#write erase -- do not save config to startup if prompted)
Give each AP an IP address on BVI1 so that both APs are in the same subnet
Apply the following configuration to the infrastrucuture (root) AP:
dot11 ssid WGB-SSID
authentication open
interface dot11radio 0
ssid WGB-SSID
station-role root
no shutdown
Apply the following configuration to the workgroup-bridge (client) AP:
dot11 ssid WGB-SSID
authentication open
interface dot11radio 0
ssid WGB-SSID
station-role workgroup-bridge
no shutdown
The intended goal with this exercise is to get rid of all config and to try only basic required elements of a WGB configuration, starting with fresh factory defaults. Let's see if it will work for you as a bare-bones setup and then you can add other configuration like encryption and ACLs back in later.

Using the 1262 AP in Workgroup Bridge Mode

Client has a building that is located 300Ft apart and would like to provide IP communications for 3-4 IP hadsets back to an IP PBX. They do not want to dig up the parking lot so we proposed using a wireless bridge. I noticed that Cisco discontinue the 1300 and 1400 Wireless Bridge. Can I use a 1262 with external antenna in Workgroup Bridge mode to perfom this functions? I will put a Layer 3 switch on both ends to route traffice (3560C-8). Should I use the Yagi antenna's for outdoor use? Thanks!

You could go WGB, but root/non-root might work better. This will allows you to pass multiple VLAN across the link.
This is a bit old, but it' the Bridge Range utility

Please remember to rate useful posts, and mark questions as answered

Can a Workgroup bridge 352 act as a LEAP client (supplicant) ?

Is it possible for a WGB in Version 8.84 to act as a LEAP client (supplicant) instead of the connected client NICs in the workgroup?
This question is as important as the workgroup could be composed of IP Cameras or other IP devices who could not act as a LEAP Client.
Thank you
Jacky

Hi,
It is not so clear as it seems to be, because several CCO documents are introducing this LEAP ability of the WGB but none of them give details.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps458/products_data_sheet09186a0080088833.html
"For authentication of devices attached to the workgroup, a username and password may be stored in the workgroup bridge in either static or dynamic memory. When authenticated, the workgroup bridge receives a single-session, single-user encryption key from the Remote Access Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) server via the associated AP. With this centralized and standards-based architecture, wireless security scales to meet the requirements of any enterprise."

Workgroup Bridge and local Wifi Config

Hi all, hoping you can help me with this, just need an other brain as mine is empty as I've been staring at this for too long!!!
What I'm trying to config is to have a standalone local WLAN (Built into a VAN) running on the 2.4ghz and then also have a workgroup bridge on the 5ghz to the corporate lan.
Setup is this:
2960<-->1142(autonomous)   <--Workgroup bridge on 5Ghz--> 1131(Lightweight)<3560>--<5508WLC> (hope that makes sense!!)
So far I have the bridge working, the 1142 connects to a ssid on the 1131 using psk. I can see the 1142 as an assosiated client on the wlc and I can ping the the lan from the 1142 so I'm happy the bridge is working.
Clients connected to the 2.4ghz ssid on the 1142 can only ping through as far as the AP(1142) I can't seem to get the traffic to pass across the bridge, is there something I need to do to link the 2.4 to the 5ghz bridge link?
Any help always appreciated, cheers.

dmantill - Thanks for your link. I have read through and checked my config but my plan is to have a number of clients, all dhcp assigned, connecting to the do0 int for local wlan breakout.
I'm not sure that the passive config will help me there.
Steven - I have enabled the wgb on the do1 int and I am connecting clients on the do0 int for local wlan breakout. Enabling the WGB has not disabled the other radio on my setup.
I was running 7.0.98.0 but have today upgraded to 7.0.98.218 on my WLC but that has not helped.
From what I can tell it looks like my problem just lies with routing traffic across the 2 radios. My local clients can ping as far as the WGB and if I CLI into the WGB AP I can ping the corporate lan on the otherside of the bridge and can also ping from the lan to the WGB. I just cannot seem to get the 2 ssid's to route between each other.
Here's my WGB config, hope this brings some more ideas!!
Cheers,
Jason.

Workgroup Bridge between WRVS440n and WAP321

Hi, i am trying to expand the wifi range of my WRVS4400n. Since the WAP4400 is'nt available i got me a wap321, since it was mentioned as recommende replacement. However i am having trouble in getting the bridge to work.
First i tried to use WDS but this only killed my WRVS4400n and i am now trying the Workghroup Bridge mode on the WAP321.
On WRVS4400n i have enabled WDS and have tried both auto setting and Manual without any difference
I am stuck with this status on the WAP321:
Network Interface Status and Statistics VLAN ID Name (SSID)
WLAN0UPSTRM Disconnected 1 myssid
WLAN0DWSTRM Up 1 myssid
It is the Infrastructure Client Interface setting that fails, i've tried both None and WPA pesronal Security setting with same result: Disconnected
What am i missing?

Hello Lars,
Just wanted to add a note to this as well. Pretty much the workgroup bridge is made to be used with other wireless devices that are not WAP121's and WAP321s. Cisco pretty much recommends to use WDS bridge if you have another WAP321 or WAP121.. if that is not the case then workgroup bridge is your other options. The admin guide should have some good documentation on this and also if you click on help in the GUI of the WAP321 it provides a lot of great information as well! It gives you recommended set up for this configuration.
Other than that you do not have to set up WDS on the WRVS4400n. As long as the SSID, wireless channel, wireless mode, wireless bandwidth and secuirty is the same on the WAP321 and the WRVS4400n this should work out just fine. Maybe have to power cycle the devices a couple times to get it to come up but I know I have gotten this to work between a RV220w and a WAP321... so I do not see why it shouldn't work between the WRVS4400n and the WAP321.
Hope that helps!
Thanks,
Clayton Sill

Aironet 1242AG duel antenna Workgroup Bridge

I have an Aironet 1242 AG that I have configured as a mobile workgroup bridge. I have noticed when you enable the bridge on Radio0 (G) Radio1 (A) is disabled or cannot be configured as a bride on top. I read it several places in the documentation that it will do this but I haven't seen an explanation as to why. The 1242 is going to be moving throughout a building so if it is possible I need to find a way to configure it so that if Radio0 looses signal it will jump to Radio1 until Radio0 has a good signal again. I can't make any modifications to the stationary broadcasting access points but they are also 1242 access points. If anyone could tell me if this is possible and how to do it or why it is not possible I would be grateful.
Thanks,
Matt

Enabling the Hot standby activates both the Radio. But both the Radios will be activated at a time meaning communication happens simultaneously on both the Radios. One Radio will not act a s a backup Radio for the other.

1522 Bridge & VLAN support

Hi Team
Can anybody tell me if a 1522 (or, I guess 1510) Mesh bridge can support VLAN tagged packets? ie Multiple VLANs on either side of the bridge. Is anybody using this in production?
Also is anybody using this with wireless clients on the MAP also?
My aim is to get wireless clients onto one VLAN, some remote wired workstations onto either the wireless client VLAN or a separate VLAN, plus a VLAN for the AP IP address (AP-Manager).
Thanks

It allows the LWAPP access points to communicate with the controller via a Layer 2 (L2) or Layer 3 (L3) network. For the further description of the Cisco Aironet 1522 Lightweight Outdoor Mesh Access Point follow the URL :

Unreachable device behind a workgroup bridge

Hello,
we have a problem, that already occured at two locations:
We installed workgroup bridges (at one location a AP-1242AG connecting to an IOS-AP, at the other location a AP-1131AG connecting to a controller-based WLAN). Behind these workgroup bridges there are devices that talk very little by themselves (about one packet per hour).
So in the IOS-WLAN they are reachable only after pinging the device from the AP to which the WGB is connected. In the controller-based WLAN they are only reachable from the WGB itself, not from the rest of the LAN.
My suspicion is, that these devices disappear from the ARP-/Mac-Address-tables because of the little traffic they send. How can we work around this problem? Static ARP- and/or MAC-Entries? But where to place them, in the core, on the APs?
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Sebastian
