Virtual WLC and firmware pushing

Hi,
I have to install a new Virtual WLC running 7.4 with 15 2600 APs. I don't understand if I have to manually download a recovery image on the APs in order to register them on the vWLC.
I've read something about that the vWLC is not able to push the system code on the APs...is this true?
Any answer will be much appreciated
Thanks
Francesco

Hi,
yes, the AP must be on 7.3 to join the vWLC.

    dear
    yes  the wlc  2504  is 8.0.110 but because its damaged i replaced it with  new vWLC v 8.0.110.
    also i can not put the LAP in flexconnect until its joint.

  • How to discover lwapp hostname via snmp virtual WLC

    Hi there,
    we recently installed a virtual WLC and configured some LWAPP access points. I want to monitor the status of the WLC and also of the access points. Using the airespace mib or lwap-ap mib I can monitor operational status and the number of associated clients. The only problem I have at the moment is that I can't recover the hostname, mac address or ip address to identify the access point. Does anybody knows which mib or oid to use to identify the access point?

  • Virtual WLC Ports Confusion -or- ADDING ports to the vWLC

    I am a struggling with configuring a virtual wireless controller (vWLC).
    I am working with the newest vWLC, 8.0.100.0
    I currently own an elderly 2504 WLC with 4 ports. (four physical interfaces on the box)
    On this 2504, I use one port for the management of the WLC and for WLC to communicate with the APs.
    The APs are on the same network as the 2504. The other port is the interface that all my wireless traffic from the clients use.
    Now with this vWLC, the virtual machine has two network interface, but once I get to a point that I am able to login to the vWLC, I only see one 'port'. According to this posting, I am suppose to take the service port and point it too a dummy virtual switch or a 'Black Hole' https://supportforums.cisco.com/document/12098556/vwlc-getting-started-key-points-and-common-issues.
    Okay, I've done this and it works, but it not what I am accustomed to.
    I enjoy having the web console of the WLC and the AP on separate networks from the wireless clients.
    To complicate things my desire is for this new vWLC and my 2504 to work together.
    I want over time to migrate APs from the 2504 to the vWLC without re-addressing them.
    Can I add "ports" to my vWLC controller? Do I need to rethink my wireless infrastructure?
    I am confused and am seeking your help, advice, suggestions, opinions and flames.
    Bryan Smith

    I think you need to re-look at your wireless design. I would prefer the 2504 over a vWLC, but that's me. I would not of separated the ports also on the WLC.  No real reason to, to be honest. Keep AP's on a seperate subnet and the traffic to and from the WLC is tunneled using capwap. Breaking up ports was an old design to be honest and that was also done back them with the 4400's. You have to also look at the pro's and con's of FlexConnect AP's vs local mode.  I never create an ap manager interface on the newer WLC's. I have always kept the dynamic ap manager in the managemt. Traffic is tunneled and you control user traffic when it leaves the WLC.

  • URGENT HELP WITH VIRTUAL WLC

    We had a problem with Virtual Machine which Cisco Virtual WLC installed. Virtual Machine files were damaged and the system was not start normally. We have had to reinstall the WLC, but after installation impossible to import current license to new one.
    how can we install this licence again?

    Licenses are tied to the device they're being used on. With a virtual WLC, the license is tied to the unique identifier of the vWLC and when you recreated the vWLC after your VMware problems the new vWLC has a different unique identifier.
    It's a similar situation to what happens when a physical controller is faulty and is swapped out by cisco, the replacement will have a different serial number and you'd have to re-host the license to the new serial number.

  • Intel iMac 17"s slow - even after SU and firmware update

    Just got 3 Intel iMacs (w/512MB RAM) to upgrade 3 users at my company, and have found basic startup (and later, opening apps) to be cripplingly slow. I have already:
    Run Software Update;
    Run the EFI Firmware update;
    Repaired permissions;
    Run Repair Disk vis "fsck -fy" from the console...
    The only things I have not messed with are the USB peripherals.
    Any ideas?

    If you have the 17" iMacs with the 1.83 GHz chip you don't really even have 512MB of RAM. That model shares RAM with the video chip, which uses a minimum of 80 MB. Leaving only 432 MB, at most, for the Mac OS and any software you are running.
    If you are seeing the spinning beachball of death you don't have enough physical RAM and the Mac is using virtual memory and constantly accessing the hard drive. You won't be happy until you have a minimum of 1 GB.
    Get more RAM.

  • SNMP OID for AssociatedAPs in Virtual WLC 7.4.100.0

    Hello Guys!
    I need you help for something that I need to do to monitor my Wi-FI network.
    I'm using a Virtual WLC (SW Ver 7.4.100.0) where most that 30 APs are associated with, but I would like to monitor each disaciossiation of APs using SNMP. After some search, I have found this OID .1.3.6.1.4.1.14179.2.1.1.1.38 on some forums but it doesn't work, I see random number in my monitoring tool.
    Do you know if there is any another OID to use with this software version or maybe if I have to upgrade to ver7.6 or ver8?
    Thanks in advance,
    Kevin

    I'm assuming you don't own a license for Cisco Prime Infrastructure
    One thing you can do is send SNMP traps to your monitoring software from the WLC (I've never used virtual WLC but my assumption is most options are the same. If your software doesn't support SNMP Traps consider a different monitoring software...
    Go to Management > SNMP > Trap Receivers and set up your receiver
    Then to to Management > SNMP > Trap ControlsHere is where you set what traps are sent via SNMP. If you see the "AP" tab you can set several things.
    If you only want to see if an AP is dropping off the network and the above doesn't work, you could just put dhcp reservations on your APs and have your software ping it. This of course is only if its off network, not if it simply disassociates.

  • Virtualized WLC + Prime + MSE solution

    Dear all,
    we are facing some problem to deploy a virtualized localization solution made of WLC, Prime Infrastructure and MSE.
    We constructed, in our lab, on a UCS C220M3 with VMWare 5.1 the following solution:
    Virtual WLC version 7.3.101 (ip address 10.0.1.249)
    Prime Infrastructure 1.2.0.103 (ip address 10.0.1.250)
    Virtual MSE 7.3.101 (ip address 10.0.1.247)
    WLC is working properly, can register APs and is properly integrated with the Prime. For the localization solution we deployed three access points:  
    -one 3502 in flex connect mode
    -two 1142 in monitor mode
    The problem came out  when we started to work with the MSE. MSE has been registered inside Prime and synchronized with maps and controller.
    After that we checked the maps but no information was displayed. So we started facing the problem and we found that the NMSP protocol remained inactive even if the troubleshooting windows didn't report any explicit issue.
    At this stage we started checking the debug messages and in particular, for the NMSP we countinuously received the follwing message:

    Looking around the Internet we found a similar case where the issue was solved dealing with the authorization list upon the wireless lan controller but after the suggested check we saw that the MSE is correctly authorized inside the controller: Here's the "show auth-list" on the WLC:
    (Cisco Controller) >show auth-list
    Authorize MIC APs against AAA ................... disabled
    Authorize LSC APs against Auth-List ............. disabled

    that perfectly matches what was on the MSE:
    cmd> show server-auth-info
    invoke command: com.aes.server.cli.CmdGetServerAuthInfo
    AesLog queue high mark: 50000
    AesLog queue low mark: 500

    Finally I tried to look around the MSE logs and here what I found tailing the locserver errors:

    Everything seems to bring to a certificate error but I don't know, from a side if this is the right direction of investigfation and, from the other, where to check for this certificate and how to find a solution.
    May someone  give us some help?
    Thank in advance to all.

    Hi Pongsatorn,
    This is caused by a bug with the ID - CSCub42987. And yes, it only applies to the Virtual WLC's.
    Here is the work-around: (need to be performed from the CLI of the MSE as follows)
    1. cmdshell
    2. config unauthenticated-nmsp true
    3. exit
    4. service msed restart

  • WLC and WCS conflict

    Hi I am currently using 21 X WLC with N+1 Redundancy and 1X WCS with 1000++ of LAP1020. If had been observed that the antenna type and power TX had been changed with no reason. Is there any settings that may affect with AP customized Tx Power and antenna settings other than using the WCS template to push the configure to the APs instead of the WLC.

    Sorry for jumping in on the question with another question but it seemed the right place.
    I have an AIR-CT5508-25-K9 WLC and +25AP license : L-LIC-CT5508-25A.
    As far as I understand it the WLC should already have a 25AP license installed and with the adder license I should have a count of 50 APs.
    However, after installing the adder license the count is still 25.
    Could you please let me know if it's just something wrong in my reasoning or should a case be opened?
    Thank you,
    Barbara

  • Migrate AP from WiSM to Virtual WLC

    Hello all,
    We have WiSM installed in Core Switch 6500 having 300+ AP registered on it.
    We want to migrate our AP's to new Virtual WLC. What is the best way to migrate AP to new vWLC with less down time.
    Can we migrate AP's from WiSM to Virtual WLC in bulk ( all in one time)? I read some where in form that AP version 7.3 & above start supporting vWLC. I am not sure if this applies for WisM as well ( i am assuming WiSM & WLC are differnt) ?
    My WiSM is running 7.0.240.0 & vWLC is 7.4. please check the WiSM attachments.
    Also is there any way to take backup from WiSM and restore on vWLC ?
    Regards.

    Hi,
    First of all, in order to reduce downtime, I would recommend that you upload the 7.4 code on the WiSM and predownload it to all the APs. (Wireless -> Global Configuration - AP Image Pre-download).
    Another thing would be to configure the vWLCs as back-up Primary & Secondary Controllers (Wireless -> Global Configuration - High Availabiliy). Doing this your APs will already know about the new WLC when the first will go down and will not have to go through discovery process. (test from AP CLI with show capwap client config)
    For the AP mode "mass-conversion" to flexconnect I don't know a better way than from WLC CLI, using:
    config ap mode flexconnect submode none AP_NAME_1
    config ap mode flexconnect submode none AP_NAME_300
    You could use text file to edit the the command with the AP names and than paste it all at once in the WLC. It would be wise to test it first with a few lines.
    If you did all this, when your old WLC goes down all your APs should associate to the new WLCs.
    Best regards,
    Sebastian

  • WLC 2504 firmware upgrade

    Upgraded my Cisco 2504 from 7.0.220.0 to 7.4.111.0
    and upgraded my field upgrade bootloader to 1.0.18.
    Now I cannot configure my WLC from the web via IP. Had it configured properly with VLAN, switch and my ASA 5520.
    Does this have to do with the ACL's on the WLC.
    I've been looking for documentation can't find much in terms of best practices for traffic.
    My CPU ACL on wired and wireless are disabled with no ACL for the CPU.
    Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you
    Carlos

    Hello Scott,
         I figured it out. I had to do from CLI a reset system command. Once I did that everything came back up. I did not know that field upgrade and firmware upgrade took so long. The instructions say to just to a save and reboot. I found out that you need to do a reset system command again from the CLI.
    Appreciate the assistance.

  • Moving Licences from WLC2504 to Virtual WLC

    I have a WLC2504 with 35 licences (two 5 packs and one 25 pack)
    The fear is that if this older piece of hardware would die, then so would my 35 licences.
    I recently installed a Virtual WLC with 5 licences.
    What I would really love to able to do, is somehow migrate my 35 licences from 2504 to the Virtual controller.
    Is there a backdoor method to get those licences out of my 2504
    I do not have a Smartnet on any of these devices, so no worries of warranties, etc..
    Comments, suggestions, opinions and flames are all welcome and appreciated

    If I am not mistaken, you will not be able to move a license from a Gen 2 WLC (like the 2500) to the Gen 3 box (like the vWLC).

  • Virtual WLC software

    Hi!
    I've got a license PAK L-AIR-CTVM-5-K9. So I believe I need to download the virtual WLC software, install it on ESX and load the license file. But I'm unable to download the .ova file from cisco support page because I've no valid service contract.So I'm stuck here. Is there any alternative source on cisco.com to download the controller software itself?

    Contact the vendor who sold you the license and tell them to get you a valid Cisco Service Contract attached to your CCO account.
    Alternatively, send an email to [email protected] and give them your CCO account, your PAK license key and ask them to associate the two.

  • Virtual WLC in LAB environment

    Hi!
    I have just installed a Virtual WLC at home for lab purpose. Now i want to connect one accesspoint to my wlc, but for now the WLC says "0 access points supported". 
    Can i somehow still use the evaluation licens and connect a accesspoint to the wlc? 
    /Lajja1234

    Hi Lajja,
    You have to enable the evaluation license in order to allow the AP to join.
    How to do it, please check here:

  • Inbound email receiving and processing: push and pull

    Hi Experts
    i know there are 2 alternative ways to configure the inbound email receiving and processing: push and pull
    (see also /people/cathy.ma/blog/2009/06/23/introduction-to-the-interaction-center-agent-inbox)
    My question is: what if i configured the email in push and, at the end of day, some emails are not already read by the Contact Center Operator ?
    The day after will the agent see those unread email in the push queue, or in pull in the Agent Inbox (thus transforming them into work item) ?
    Those emails are not lost. True?
    Maybe it is a simplistic question
    thanks for the support
    Angelo T.

    Hello Angelo,
    No, actually. ICI interface "push" emails are handled just like a telephone call. You would never leave a telephone call sitting in the queue at the end of the day, and its the same with ICI emails. The key here is that ICI is real time!  This is quite a different approach than the SAPConnect interface which uses workflow to route the emails to an Inbox (virtual queue). In the Inbox case, of course an agent would see lots of emails sitting in the queue the next day. Hope that helps!
    Regards,
    John
