What vlan should the WLC management be in

We are using wireless controller 5508 and 1142n ap
We have all the wireless configured on vlan 36
the dhcp server is in vlan 1
At present we have the management port on subnet 32 vlan1
And it seems to be working it see all the access points and we are using the wireless with Leo problem.
But is the proper way in setting the management interface port on the controller or should have an IP address and vlan identifier of 36.

Honeslty, that is up to you.  I have customers that start off WLC and AP all in the same subnet, but it is not necessary.  I also have customers that put the WLC mgmt in the 'server' VLAN, and the AP in their own.
IMHO, I like the WLC to be in 'server' or 'secured' VLAN, then I put the AP in their own VLAN that is locked down to only getting DHCP and talking to the WLC.  that way if someone unplugs an AP and connects something they can't get anywhere.
HTH,

  • What VLAN should the management interface be in on a 4400 controller?

    Hi,
    Some documentations put the management interface on a 4400 controller into a regular tagged VLAN. But some documentations put it in an untagged Native VLAN, the tag=0. What is the difference? Which configuration is optimal?
    Thanks,
    Justin

    The answer is "it depends" :-)
    I would not say any particular config is optimal though. If you have an established VLAN for management interfaces, I would use that. However if you put the management interface in the same VLAN as your AP's, AP's find your controllers easier. Otherwise you can use DHCP to point AP's to controllers.
    I prefer to tag the frame as to which VLAN it belongs to, even if that is the same as the native VLAN.

  • My sound has disappeared-what position should the toggle switch be in?  Also my e-mails sticks a lot of the time.

    My sound has disappeared - what position should the toggle switch be in?  Also, my e-mail sticks a lot of the time, same old problem, no solutions.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

  • What Roles should the gwconnector user have in CRM

    Hi Guys,
    I have setup GWConnector etc and have assigned GWConnector user with full admin rights on the CRM system.
    I cannot find any document that tells me what roles this user must have etc?
    Could one of you guys either tell me what they should be - or point me to the right documentation as itu2019s not in the groupware setup guide only the AD stuff?
    Thanks

  • Advantages and Disadvantages of having the APs and the WLC Management on same subnet

    Good day Experts;
    I have a 5760 WLC running as a centralized mode with 3702 AP terminating the CAPWAP tunnels on the 5760, I've also have another 5760 WLC with HA license, running on standby mode.
    I have two questions:
    1.- Can you please confirm that I don't need to configure "AP Manager" on the 5760 WLC (i.e. I don't need the following statement:   "wireless ap-manager interface vlanx" ). I don't need this configuration statement even the APs are on a different subnet than the Management of the WLC.
    2.- Are there any advantages and/or disadvantages of having the APs and the management of the 5760 WLC Management on a different subnet/vlan?   
    Thanks;
    Juan

    Hi Juan,
    1. Can you please confirm that I don't need to configure "AP Manager" on the 5760 WLC
    Yes, you do not want to create ap manager interface on 5760. Just management interface & that will do everything. Below should cover basics of the 5760 config
    http://mrncciew.com/2013/12/12/getting-started-with-5760/
    2.- Are there any advantages and/or disadvantages of having the APs and the management of the 5760 WLC Management on a different subnet/vlan?
    If you put AP management on the same vlan as WLC management, then AP broadcast discovery messages will reach WLC management. So you do not want to configure any WLC discovery mechanism (DNS or DHCP option 43) for AP to find WLC to register. This is ok for small scale deployment, but if you have 500-1000 AP these AP broadcast reaching WLC will be problematic (burden WLC). So it is recommended to seperate AP management to WLC management in large scale deployment. In that case you have to define a way to AP to get WLC IP information (DNS or DHCP option 43 is most common)

  • What size should the back-up drive be?

    I'm using a lacie 1TB External firewire drive to back-up my 250gig iMac, I mostly use the mac for email, photos, home use etc. (The drive is almost full, using 230 gig). (Yes I know that's too full and I plan to put in a 500 gig drive). I upgraded to leopard about a month ago and set up time machine recently. There are 17 backups- "lines" in the time machine "star wars" screen- on the external drive totaling 700 gig of data!!
    I have not added any pictures or large files since beginning to use Time machine. Should the time machine backups use that much space? I thought after the initial back-up time machine only keeps record of the changes.? Using CCC I could have cloned the hard drive three times and still have room left!
    Does the large amount of HD space used to back-up sound ok for only a 250 hard drive?
    Joe

    Many users here recommend that your TM volume be about two and a half times the size of the data on your main hard drive. So, if you have 400GB of data to back up, you should give TM a 1GB volume for backing up.
    But in my experience, how much space you need really depends on your computer usage patterns. My weekly backups go all the way back to January 2008, when I first started. My main hard drive has 115 GB used of 148 GB total. My TM backups of that disk total 168 GB on a 212 GB partition. So I have never needed to have nearly as much backup space as the 2.5 multiplier recommendation.
    I try to manage my computer use so that Time Machine is not backing up files I do not want backed up, and is not backing up stuff twice if I move files to a different location. I rarely work with large files (no photoshop, no Final Cut Pro, etc). When I do have large files, they usually start in my Downloads folder. If I want to keep something I download, I eventually move it to a different location. To prevent TM from backing it up twice and unnecessarily using up space on the TM drive, I exclude my Downloads folder from being backed up. I'll let TM back it up after the download is in its new permanent location.
    I don't really consider it a big deal to not have backups of the contents of my downloads folder. I figure that if my hard drive breaks and I lose all of my downloads, I can just download them again.

  • I have created a form saved it then attached it to an email and sent it out. The form arrived and can be opened but how is it returned to me once it is filled in. What steps should the person getting the form follow?

    I need help in learning the steps to follow after the fillable form has been filled in and I want to return it to the sender. It arrived as an attachment to an email.

    There are various was to return a filled-in PDF form but many require some detailed information about what product the person filling in the form will be using.
    As noted above the form can be filled out and faxed or snail mailed to you.
    Since Acrobat 3 the form could be submitted to a scripted web page and have the web server perform the tasks necessary to return the data to you.
    Since Acrobat 6 the creator could add special "Extended Form Rights" to the form so users with Reader version 5 or better could save the form and email the form.
    For mobile devices the app the user will be using will determine how or if the form can be returned.
    Do not allow users to use Apple's Preview application on the Macintosh. It will corrupt the form in many ways.

  • What version should the GW 2012 SP2 C1 snapins show?

    I just updated from GW 2012 Sp1 to Sp2.
    All went OK, but I was thrown off by the version of the C1 snapins.
    After installing Sp2, I launched C1 and found that the snapins displayed "2012 SP1"
    I thought that something must have gone wrong with the admin install, so I installed that component again from GW's ./install but it still didn't help..
    I eventually broke C1, and every time I tried to run it with the GW snapins I received the dreaded java errors during snapin initialisation. The only way I could get C1 working again with GW snapins was to remove NOVLc1Linuxjre (rpm -e), NOVLc1 (c1-uninstall.sh), and novell-groupwise-admin-12.0.2-108211 (rpm -e), then reinstall them in this order:
    1. NOVLc1Linuxjre-1.5.0-11
    2. NOVLc1-1.3.6-1
    3. GW2012-ISO/admin/novell-groupwise-admin-12.0.2-108211.i586.rpm
    My issue most certainly was related to the jre version, which needs to the correct one before installing C1.
    But still C1 displays the GW 2012 snapins as "2012 SP1", and another 12.0.2 server shows the same; so is there no update to the snapins for version 12.0.2?

  • At what point should the storage pool be connected to a replacement DPM server?

    I have backed up the DPMDB and  SQL DB from our "old" DPM server, removed it from the domain, and installed the same version, DPM 2007, SP1, on a new server with the same FQDN.  At what point do I connect the storage pool to the new server? 
    Before restoring the db, or after restoring the db but before doing a dpmsync?  Nowhere in the sea of documentation on migrating and upgrading have I found that little detail mentioned.  Please help!

    Mike, I'm doing another DPM rebuild and upgrade, and I connected the storage pool too soon.  Can I save the situation, or do I need to detach the disks, uninstall DPM, delete the db, reinstall, restore the db from the previous backup, and then attach
    the disks and sync?  Thank you!

    I tried to look at your podcast but iTunes said that it is not current available in the U.S. store.
    Anyway, if you are referring to your podcast series "artwork", in Apple's Technical Specification here:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/store/podcaststechspecs.html
    ...it says:

  • What channel should the latest AE be on?

    My AEBS is on channel 149. I've extended my network with a new AE and it says it's on channel 1. Is that correct for maximum speed of the network?

    Sure, happy to help. The wall may limit your 5 GHz performance but you won't know unless you try.
    Open Hard Drive > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility and select your AEBS
    Click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
    Click the Wireless Options button
    Put a check mark next to 5 GHz name and change the name area if you wish
    Make sure that the Wide Channels option is checked
    Click Done and Click Update at the lower right to restart the AEBS with the new settings.
    You will need to change the name on the setup of AirPort Express (AX) as well.
    Select the AX in AirPort Utility
    Click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
    Change the Wireless Network Name to the exact name of your 5 GHz network on the AEBS.
    Click Update. After the AX restarts, power it down for now.
    When you log onto wireless with your AEBS, you will need to look for your 5 GHz network name so you can connect to that specific network. Keep your computer close to the AEBS for now to make sure you connect to the 5 GHz network. If you connect to your former network, you will see that it is a 2.4 GHz connection.
    Now position the AX where it's needed and plug it in to see if you can get the green light. You may need to move the AX closer to the AEBS than you did before to see if that helps. If you get the constant flashing amber light, that indicates that the 5 GHz signal is not strong enough at the location of the AX for it to extend the signal effectively.
    Hope this works for you. Please post back on your results or your questions.

  • WLC Management Page not responding

    Hi,
    I'm facing a weird problem which's the WLC management page will not be responding after a certain periods say about 2weeks. Then i've to reset the WLC system in order to get it works.Internet surfing will not be affected when the management page not responding but the local web authentication page yes as the local system held the GUI files. I'm thinking whether this's a software bug or what. Anyone has the idea?
    Btw, the WLC system that i had is an integrated machine with 3750G switches.
    regards.

    i had the same problem when im upgrade software 4402 to 5.2 version.
    try with this:
    There can be several reasons associated with this issue. One common reason can be related to the virtual interface configuration of the controller. In order to resolve this problem, remove the virtual interface and then re-generate it with this command:
    WLC>config interface address virtual 1.1.1.1
    Then, reboot the controller. After the controller is rebooted, re-generate the webauth certificate locally on the controller with this command:
    WLC>config certificate generate webauth
    In the ouput of this command, you should see this message: Web Authentication certificate has been generated.
    Now, you should be able to access the secure web mode of the controller upon reboot.
    Regards
    Antonio.
