1220B Wireless config for Hotel

All, We are
putting up some gently used 1220B Access points for a hotel. 4 per floor for 7 floors.
Can someone take a look at the config and see if there is any room for improvement? We want it as wide open as possible. Also, is it best to set the AP to use the "Least Congested Frequency" or better to set the channels manually?
Thanks in advance!

Yes. You can configure them individually.

AIR-CT2504-HA-K9 N+1 redundancy config

Hi Experts,
After I read some documentation it is still not 100% clear for me what are the procedure to configure additional WLC controller we bought (
AIR-CT2504-HA-K9). What we need to achieve is just the basic N+1 redundancy. We have our existing WLC 2504 and 15 LAPs 1262.
Please advise if these steps are correct:
1. Backup existing config from primary WLC.
2. Upgrade backup WLC to the same OS version
3. Upload config to the backup WLC
4. Change all IPs - it should be different but on the same subnet as the primary one.
5. On the primary controller change AP redundancy settings - add IP of the backup controller.
6. Plug backup controller to the network and test failover by disconnecting the primary one from the network - after 2 minutes all APs should reconnect to the backup one.
7. If all good disconnect backup one from the network and all APs should fall back to the primary one.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Gleb.

Thanks for this Scott,
additionally do I always need to update the config on the backup manually as long as there are some changes on the primary one?
not sure what this means as well, do I need to go through this step (figure 2.8):
An HA-SKU secondary controller can also be used as a primary, secondary, or tertiary controller. This
can be configured under the AP specific configuration.
Thanks in advance.

One WLC AIR-CT2504-K9 for Main office and 3 Branches

Hi ,
I need to configure a WLC AIR-CT2504-K9 with the followings requiremets:
1.- There is a main officce where the WLC and 7 LAPs will be installed.
2.- There are 3 branches; one LAPs in every branch will be installed.
3.- SSIDs for internal users and guest will be the same in each office.
Is it possible to set this scenario ?? (see complete info in table)
In the past I configure some WLC 2100 but I noticed some difference with this new WLC-CT2504
one of the differences that kept my attention were regarding ap-manager interface (not shown)
and virtual interface ( shown as NOT SUPPORTED)
Should I set ap-manager interface or is enough with managment interface ?
why the message "Not support" in virtual interface ??
How can I use one port for two interfaces (as is proposed in table), if I try to do this a message error is displayed
"Error setting AP Manager interface".
iF I set one interface and associate to one port (Enable) I can not set second interface in the same port so remains disable
This model of WLC just has 4 Ports.
I have read last config guide but is not clear for me because there is no examples of this kind of scenario.

Hi Scott,
I configured virtual interface from startup configuration wizard.
(Cisco Controller) >show interface detailed virtual
Interface Name................................... virtual
MAC Address...................................... d0:c2:82:e3:8e:c1

AIR-CT2504-50-K9 with out DHCP Static config

We have AIR-CT2504-50-K9 and AIR-CAP1602I-TK910 30 devices we want config trough controller to AP with out DHCP

#Yes, you can use internal dhcp server on WLC-2500 to lease IPs to the connected APs using L2/Broadcast, once AP gets an ip then you can make those IPs as static on those APs via check box from AP's general tab after it joins the WLC.
#Remeber, WLC dhcp doesn't support option 43, if the AP and WLC management are L3, be sure to use ip-helper at L3 for wlc discovery. Also, don't think AP may receive ip from WLC dhcp server when it is L3 and dhcp proxy is used instead of broadcast.

Sample config for wireless

Hi
Does anyone have a sample config for standalone Cisco AP1252 (Cisco IOS) for AD Authentication for wireless ?
Appreciated your kind reply.

The short version :
in config terminal mode :
-radius-server host auth-port 1812 acct-port 1813 key 0
-aaa authentication dot1x eap_methods group radiusThen you need to configure your ssid for dot1x :-dot11 ssid -authentication open eap eap_methods-authentication network-eap eap_methodsThis is only the part needed for radius interaction. This assumes that you already configured your SSID with according WPA settings.that's about it I think.If you want info about more commands or so, just check out this link :http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/12.4_10b_JA/configuration/guide/scg12410b-chap11-authtypes.html#wp1002608

I have on airport express that is 5 years old, I now have a new wireless router. I want to use the express just for air waving iTunes. How do I set it up?

Hello 84wvu,
It sounds like you want to setup your Airport Express to Airplay music from iTunes. I found an article with steps to help you get this setup:
Connecting to an existing Wi-Fi network, exclusively for iTunes music
AirPort Express used exclusively for AirPlay by setting it up in Client Mode.
Choose this configuration if the computer containing your iTunes library may be out of direct range of the AirPort Express, but is within range of the Wi-Fi network.
How to Set It Up
Connect your AirPort Express to your home stereo or powered speakers.
From your computer, join the wireless network. Use the AirPort status menu in the menu bar on a Mac. On a Windows-based computer, hold the pointer over the wireless connection icon until you see your AirPort network name (SSID), and choose it from the list if there are multiple networks available. Enter the network password, if necessary.
Open iTunes on your computer and choose the AirPort Express(es) you wish to stream music through from the speakers pop-up menu in the lower-right corner of the iTunes window.
I also recommend reviewing the sections titled "Some things you should know about AirPort Express with AirPlay" and "Things to consider before you begin" in the full article:
Wi-Fi base stations: How to set up and configure AirPort Express for AirPlay and iTunes

AIR-CT2504-25-K9 (HA) Help needed

Hi all,
I got two AIR-CT2404-25-K9 and i need them in HA (Active/Passive) i would like to add a AIR-CT2504-HA-K9 but can someone tell me if i need one or two for an active/passive config.
Thanks for your help!

2504 just does N+1 HA from 7.5, whereas the bigger platforms do AP SSO and Client SSO. And obviously , you need 2 AIR-CT2404-25-K9 for HA.

What do I need to connect my new Yamaha RX-V671 receiver wirelessly to my Air Port Express?

I have just received my new Yamaha RX-V671 receiver and the only connection I have for the internet is by a network cable or by a USB slot. I would like to hook this up wirelessly to my Air Port Express, I just need to know what I need to get so I can stream my itunes to this receiver. My receive is roughly about 50 feet from my Air Port Express.

but what I was hoping to do is hook up my receiver wirelessly
Sorry, but if the receiver only has an Ethernet connection or USB...as you say....then you are going to have to use some kind of wireless-to-Ethernet adapter....like the AirPort Express that I suggested....or another similar product to accomplish your goal of providing a network connection to the receiver.
It would be wireless from your "main" AirPort Express to the second AirPort Express, with a short Ethernet cable from the second Express to the receiver.

HP laserjet P1100 wireless connection for mac

Hoping for a quick response.... I have a Mac with 10.8.5 and I have purchased an HP Laserjet P1100 wireless printer. I have tried installing the drivers to print wireless...ly with no success. I have taken time out to type this message because I have not been able to find someone who has had the same issue in the internet. I need a walk thru because there are many steps where the issue may be occuring. Your written installation documentation conflicts with your User Guide PDF file. Cord or no cord during driver installation for wireless connection??? Was lost after #5 page 18 on the User Guide PDF file.
I figured it out. Your directions are misleading and not up to date. Cord is not an issue but needed for entire install process. At one point I'm in my system prefs then I'm on my web browser where I found Bonjour which added the network to my printer choices so now I can print wirelessly... hopefully I don't have to do that again because I'm not sure of the steps I took. Fairly complex set up.

Hey @matt4,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I see that you have a Mac OS X 10.8.5 and a new HP Laserjet P1100 series printer and are looking for quick and easy wireless configuration steps. I just have one question for you:
Do you have a P1100 or a P1102w?
What's my Model Number?
I'm going to assume that you have a Laserjet P1102w. The steps for wireless configuration of a Laserjet P1102w are a bit confusing on Mac OS X 10.8 as you need to use the generic Apple Airprint driver because there is no 'Full Feature Software and Driver' installation for that Operating System. In saying that, I will try my best to give you easy steps to reference should you need to configure your printer again on the wireless network.
How to Connect the Printer to the Network:
Step 1: Install the Generic Mac Printer Driver:
1. Turn your printer on
2. Plug your USB cable from the printer directly into your Mac
3. Click on the Apple menu, and then click System Preferences
4. Click Print & Scan and make sure your printer is in the list of available devices.
5. If your printer is not listed, click the plus () sign at the bottom left pane, click the name of your USB printer, and then click Add.
Step 2: Connect the Printer to the Wireless Network:
I've added the video above so you can view these step-by-step instructions.
Click the Apple icon (), and then click System Preferences.
Click Print & Scan.
Click Open Print Queue, and then click Printer Setup.
Click the Utility tab, and then click Open Printer Utility.
Click HTMLConfig.
Click the Networking tab, and then click Wireless from the list on the left.
Under Communication Mode, click Infrastructure, select your network SSID from the Available Network Names (SSID) list, and then click the << button.
From the Security Mode pop-up menu under Authentication, click WEP or WPA/WPA2. Your selection depends on the wireless security protocol your network uses.
Note: If your network does not have wireless security, leave the Security Mode set to Open System (No Authentication).
Type your WEP/WPA/WPA2 key in the appropriate field, and then click Apply.
In the confirmation box, click OK, and then close the HTML Config and Print Queue windows.
Step 3: Delete the USB connected printer, and then add the wireless connected printer:
In the Print & Scan window under Printers, click your printer name, and then click the Minus sign () to remove it.
NOTE: This removes the USB connection from the list so that the only entry for your printer is the wireless connection.
Disconnect the USB cable from the printer and the computer.
Under Printers, click the Plus sign ().
Select your printer name with Bonjour as the Kind, and then click Add
Once your printer is configured for Bonjour, if you have other Mac OS X computers that you want to use with this network printer you do not have to run all these steps again. You simply make sure that the other Mac computers are all connected to the same network that you have set your printer up on and just open Print & Scan. Under Printers click the () plus sign and select your printer name with Bonjour as the Kind, and then click Add.
You can reference all of this information in: Setting Up the Printer for a Wireless Network for the HP LaserJet Pro P1102w Printer
Let me know if these steps help clear up any confusion for you. Good luck!

Wireless connecting for laserjet Pro P1102W

I have a mac - no problem setting up the printer but I can't seem to connect the wireless component. I have gone into the systems and opened up printer - utility - everything is good but it won't let me put in the encrypted password for my network.

Welcome to the HP Forums dcfrk,
I see by your post that you are unable to setup the printer on the wireless network.
I can help you with this.
If the issue is that the HTML won't load, please follow these steps for 10.8 or lower:
Make sure Safari is set as the default browser. (sometimes the EWS won't open if it isn't set as the default)
Open Safari, across the top select the Safari menu, select Preferences, General, set as default.
Close out all applications.
You can access the HTML from this location:
On the Apple menu bar, click Go, computer, Mac Harddrive, library, printers, HP,Laserjet, P1100_P1560_P1600Series, open HTML config.
Go to the network tab, select wireless on the left side, select infrastructure, select network name, select the double
arrow button to move the network name over to the left side, fill in passwords, apply.
You should get a solid blue wireless light in about 1 minute.
Then go to the Apple, system preferences, print & scan, highlight the P1102w and click the minus at bottom left
corner to delete it, then disconnect USB cable, click the plus sign in bottom left corner and highlight the P1102w bonjour printer, beside Use: make sure it shows the proper printer name and not Airprint, (Airprint is a preinstalled Apple driver with basic functionality) click on the add button. You might have to click on the drop down to select your printer.
Test the printer.
Steps for 10.9:
Here is a Youtube video of the Laserjet P1102w wireless installation for Maverick.

Anyone got the AIR-CT2504-HA-K9 to work on N+1 Redundancy ?

Hi Guys,
Seems like the new Part #AIR-CT2504-HA-K9 needs some kinda licensing...to work... otherwise the redundancy is same as it was ealier with mobility groups.
The documentation seems to be wrong in the case of 2504, i cannot find the redundancy button in the Wireless tab too, When i apply the Evaluation license redundancy is working.... did anyone else face the same Issue ?
Regards,
Vinu

i cannot find the redundancy button in the Wireless tab too
You mean AP SSO?
WLC 2500 will not support this feature.

Netcfg v2.5.2 - note: change in auto wireless config

This release brings a completely new auto wireless/wired configuration. The old net-auto is deprecated and no longer included. There are also some very minor configuration changes that may affect a few people.
Move to new auto-wireless/wired
The new automatic connection has proper roaming support and will prove more reliable than the old setup - particularly with more complicated wireless configurations. To migrate to the new automatic wireless setup:
1. pacman -S core/wpa_actiond
2. Set WIRELESS_INTERFACE="" to your wireless interface in /etc/rc.conf.
For example WIRELESS_INTERFACE="wlan0"
3. Add net-auto-wireless to your DAEMONS=() array.
Note: wpa-config profiles do not work with this, convert them to wpa-configsection profiles. An example is included in
/etc/network.d/examples/
The new auto-wired uses similar configuration - follow the above instructions except use the net-auto-wired daemon, and WIRED_INTERFACE configuration option.
New features:
- net-auto-wireless/wpa_actiond - Real wireless roaming/auto connection. Based on same principle as autowifi. Requires optional dependency: wpa_actiond
- net-auto-wired - automatic ethernet configuration. Requires optional dependency: ifplugd
- Interface configurations - set options for all profiles using an interface
- Output hooks
- Internal cleanup & improvement
Internal changes:
- Uses wpa_supplicant for all wireless configuration by default, including wep/none security. This adds improves support for most and should improve reliability.
- Uses iproute by default for all static configuration. net_tools which contains ifconfig is effectively obsolete and hasnt seen a release for over 8 years. The 'ethernet-iproute' and 'ethernet' connection types have been merged together to simply 'ethernet'. All options are still supported and existing configurations will continue to work for both types. A symlink has been made to ensure that profiles using 'ethernet-iproute' will continue to function.
Changes in configuration syntax
- net-auto and AUTO_NETWORKS is now deprecated in favour of net-auto-wireless/net-auto-wired.
- wireless: If you were previously specifying the wpa_supplicant driver in WPA_OPTS, you now need to specify it in WPA_DRIVER.
- wireless: iwconfig based configuration for wep/none can be used by changing to wep-old or none-old. This should not be necessary and is left in place only for the possibility of very old drivers that do not
support wpa_supplicant.
- ethernet-iproute: As 'ethernet' is now iproute based, those using 'ethernet-iproute' can revert the name. There is a symlink in place, so existing configurations of either name will continue to function
regardless.
- wireless-dbus: Unsupported. The wpa_supplicant dbus interface isn't particularly well documented and it doesn't fit well into the netcfg codebase. There is a symlink in place so that configurations using wireless-dbus will continue to function using the 'wireless' connection scripts.
Download:
netcfg 2.5.2 is in [core].

I continued to have difficulty connecting to my default wireless network, but I eventually figured out why. I seem to recall netcfg used to not care if a POSTUP command failed. I read somewhere that now it does.
So once I got that taken care of, I experimented with net-auto-wireless. It fails for me with no error message.
Being a bit of a tinkerer, I looked into the net-auto-wireless script. I found this line...
/usr/bin/netcfg-wpa_actiond "${WIRELESS_INTERFACE}" >/dev/null
...Removed the >/dev/null, and ran it again.
$ sudo /etc/rc.d/net-auto-wireless start

Line 22: WPA-PSK accepted for key management, but no PSK configured.
Line 22: failed to parse network block.
Failed to read or parse configuration '/tmp/wpa.wlan0/wpa.conf'.
[FAIL]
...And now that I think about it, I bet it's because I didn't set security="none" in the open network profiles.
...Yep, that was it.

Recommened wireless router for IMAC

Just purchased an IMAC 21.5 computer and need a better wireless router for the IMAC and IPAD AIR. Used for surfing the net, email and wireless printing. What should I look at?

Mac friendly, ease of use, comes w/a user manual, good tech support (online & off) and read all the reviews of the routers you are interested in.

Cisco ISE configs for switch

I suppose Cisco ISE sends a URL redirect to the switch and the switch presents it to the client in case of guest Access getting a URL redirect with User Acceptance Page (Wired Guests and not wireless).
My question here is, Do we need to configure http and https server on the switches (both supplicant and authenticator)?
I am sure it will need but just wanted a confirmation..
I have checked the configuration for supplicant and Authenticator switches for ISE and it has no where mentioned that part of the config.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/ise/1.0/user_guide/ise10_troubleshooting.html (a problem of URL redirection and possible cause is mentioned) ------- makes me sure that the config is needed.
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/lan/catalyst2960x/software/15-0_2_EX/security/configuration_guide/b_sec_152ex_2960-x_cg/b_sec_152ex_2960-x_cg_chapter_010000.html
(config of supplicant and authenticator switch)---- nowhere mentioned of the http/https config for both switches.

Yes, its needed. The http/s server within the swtich is used to grab the http user traffic and redirect the traffic to the CWA portal, or a device registration portal, or even to the Mobile Device Management (MDM) onboarding portal. .
ip http server
ip http secure-server
The info below I grabbed from Cisco ISE for BYOD and secure unified access book.
"Many organization want to ensure that this redirection process using the switch's internal HTTP server is decoupled from the management of the switch itself, in order to limit the chances of an end user interacting with the management intervace and control plane of a switch. this may be accomplished by running the following two commands from global configuration mode:
ip http active-session-modules none
ip http secure-active-session-modules none"
