WLAN Controller at HQ and AP's at Branch offices
I have a WLAN controller at HQ and want to put APs at my branch offices, but connected and managed by my controller at HQ. I know that if the WAN goes down, I will lose wireless, etc.
my question is:
Is there anything I should watch out for with this type of setup? I will have separate vlans' for the wireless and data.. will this matter when it hits the MPLS from the branch back to the HQ WLAN controller? I thought maybe the vlan tagging had to stay consistant between AP and WLAN controller?
Hybrid Remote Edge Access Point (HREAP) is a mode supportede by 1130 and 1240 series AP's. In the upcoming release of version 4.2, HREAP will also have full support for voice roaming as well. With HREAP, wireless users already authenticated will remain connected in the event of a WAN outage. In addition, v4.2 will support local site authentication for HREAP deployments. If you have an ACS server at the remote site, you can even authenticate new users during a WAN outage. I wouldn't recommend anything in the 1000 series AP family. It's already been announced that it's going end of sale. Keep in mind the latency between AP and controller must be less than 100ms.

SPA8800 and SRST for small branch office?
Hi All,
Need some help. I have a central site that will be running Cisco BE 5000. I have a small branch office I would like to place IP phones in so we can just dial an extension to call each other. The branch will have its own connection to the PSTN with a couple of POTS lines from the phone company.
So I am wondering how I can connect branch and HQ for intra-office calling and let the branch office use their PSTN connection for their local calls. I would think I could place a gateway such as the SPA8800 in the branch and connect the PSTN lines to it.
My concern is, what happens if I lose the WAN connection between HQ and branch? Then the branch could not make any calls right? I know a little about SRST and how that solves the issue of losing WAN connection with the central Call Manager site, but I what I don't understand is SRST something that can run on a device like the SPA8800 or do I need an ISR router in the branch that can run SRST if I want the branch to be able to make phone calls without a connection to HQ?
Thanks for any help!u may but any plane wireless device and run it in bridge mode (shouldd run by default i beleive). Then connect one of its lan port to any one of the lan ports available on the DPC3829 thing.
you are correct in what you want to do, and it can be done no problem.

Please mark answer as correct if it helps. -
Communication between : AP and WLAN controller
Hi,
The communication between AP and WLAN Controller is ( Data and Control ) UDP.
Source port 1024 and destination port 12222 and 12223. Actually which device listen to which port or both should listen as control and data can be generated from both the devices.
How does the user ( wireless client) traffic is switched - if user traffic is a TCP traffic. It will be sent to WLANC and then WLANC forwards it to respective VLAN or default gateway ( depending upon the destination in the packet ).
Please explain / share the experience.
any link on cisco.com
Thanka in advance
Subodh"the LWAPP Control and Data messages are encapsulated in UDP packets that are carried over the IP network. The only requirement is established IP connectivity between the access points and the WLC. The LWAPP tunnel uses the access point's IP address and the WLC's AP Manager interface IP address as endpoints. The AP Manager interface is explained in further detail in the
implementation section. On the access point side, both LWAPP Control and Data messages use an ephemeral port that is derived from a hash of the access point MAC address as the UDP port. On the WLC side, LWAPP Data messages always use UDP port 12222. On the WLC side, LWAPP Control messages always use UDP port 12223.
The mechanics and sequencing of Layer 3 LWAPP are similar to Layer 2 LWAPP except that the packets are carried in UDP packets instead of being encapsulated in Ethernet frames."

Cisco LWAP & WLAN Controller Flexconnect Across HP Switches
Hello All, I'm looking for a little guidance in making the needed routing and switching configuration changes on our Corporate Network to accomadate flex connect functionality for Cisco Lightweight Access Points (LWAPs). The LWAPs that are currently configured on our network only work when our WLAN Controller is up and running and I need for them to be disconnectable so that we can move the WLAN Controller to our virtual co-lo. It should be known that I inhereted this network from the previous admin and have been working hard to map everything out to the best of my ability. Also, the WLAN controller is already operating in our production network so it limits my ability to do much testing.
Just FYI, I'm a new Systems Admin promoted from a Desktop Support role and have my CCENT (Currently working on CCNA & MCITP Server Admin) so I have some knowledge but it is limited on the networking and switching side of things. Unfortunately, the Senior Systems Admin has even less knowledge of networking than me and I don't really have anyone to turn to which is why I'm posting here. I would have utilized GNS to help me simulate the configuration however there are HP switches in the mix and no means of emulating them.

(COSW239) HP1810G-24 - No IP (Inaccesible but being replaced)
I will now go on to explain our network topology as it pertains to the WAPs and WLAN Controller and how I believe it needs to be configured in order to operate from my perspective.
Our Corporate and Guest Wireless Access is provided via the Sonicwall CONSA251 through a connection from the X0 interface to HP Switch COSW239 which is then connected to WLAN Controller CO-WLAN-CTRLER as detailed below:
Device - Interface Name/Port
CONSA251 - X0
COSW239 - 2
COSW239 - 18,19
CO-WLAN-CTRLER - 2,3
The WLAN Controller currently communicates with all the LWAPs via Layer 3 TCP\IP as I understand it and then routes all DHCP requests and traffic destine for the 10.1.101.1 (corporate WLAN) and 192.168.1.1 (Guest WLAN) to the Sonicwall and vice versa.
Now what I am trying to do is VLAN the LWAP CORP-AP-MIS across the HP Switches to the X0 interface on the Sonicwall NSA240 where it will be able to route traffic via VLAN 20 & 30. The problem lies in my inexperience with HP VLAN configurations and how the ports need to be configured on each device so it can route traffic to the Sonicwall when the WLAN Controller is shutdown.
The LWAP CORP-AP-MIS layer 2 trace to the WLAN Controller is as shown below:
Device - Interface Name/Port
CORP-AP-MIS - FA/0
COSW238 - 16
COSW238 - 25
COSW240 - B4
COSW240 - H6
CORT250 - GigabitEthernet0/0
CORT250 - Se1/0
CONSA251 - X0
Now for all intesive purposes the Corporate Router CORT250 should probably be handling the routing for our Corporate and Guest Wireless network however that was not the way it was originally setup and I have to work with what was inhereted. The Corporate Router CORT250 has a default route to the Sonicwall and the Sonicwall CONSA251 has all the routing already in place for the Corporate & Guest WLANs.
What I would like to do is VLAN off the X0-V20&V30 accross multiple switches and switchports to each LWAP in our building. I do have the LWAP I'm testing on configured with Flex Connect which I understand is required for it to be disconnectable.
Any guidance on how I would go about configuring this accross devices would be appreciated. I know there are some difference between HP and Cisco Switching terms and how tagging, untagging, and trunking works however I lack the experience to apply this in practice especially in a production environment.
I will be happy to provide any additional information or clarification that is needed. Thank you in advance for the help.Just to add about the ISE... you can profile, but having only one ssid might or might not work in your situation. Also if you end up with remote sites or ap's in h-reap mode, currently ISE cant do any profiling. If you go with the 7500 or 5508/WiSM2, they don't really do an active-active or active backup. They are both up and you can split the load or put all ap's on one, its up to you. I usually split the load just to make sure both are working. I don't want to all of a sudden loose the primary and then find out my secondary/backup is not working.

WLAN controller Software Download
Hi There
I purchased a brand new Cisco wlan controller (2500 model) and one access point from a Cisco authorised supplier. Can I register the controller on the
Cisco website to enable access to download software related to this controller? I want to download the latest "AIR-CTVM-K9-8-0-100-0.aes" software
but I am not allowed according to my profile.
So how do I get access to the latest software for my 2500 WLAN controller ?
Regards
GideonCan I register the controller on the Cisco website to enable access to download software related to this controller?
Yes and no.
The quick answer is NO. Your authorized Cisco reseller should be able to "attach" the serial number of your WLC to your Service Contract and your Service Contract is attached to your CCO login.
If you go direct to Cisco, it'll take time to get to the bottom of the details plus you need to furnish so many information it's better to get your Cisco reseller to contact them. -
WLAN Controller and Location appliance graceful shutdown?
Does anyone know if there is a supported graceful shutdown method/command for the
4400 series WLAN Controller and 2700 Location Appliances?
This weekend our server room will be undergoing maintenance and will experience a total power outage for a 4 hour period. It is our intent to manually bring all equipment down (hopefully in a graceful manner) and then back up once the maintenance is completed. As a result does anyone know if special precaution is needed to shutdown these 2 appliances, or can we simply bring down these devices hard which is the case with most other Cisco equipment?
Thanks in advanceHi Mark,
Channel 1, 6, and 11 are just about as non-overlapping as 1, 7, and 13. There's an insignificant amount of overlap, so it's just as plausible of a solution, even in Europe. I honestly don't know why you wouldn't use the extra channels to eliminate the minor overlap - every bit helps.
The "channel blanket" or "virtual cell" WLAN design philosophy is rapidly spreading. Cisco maintains that it's a standards violation and I've heard no talk of them purchasing the not-to-be-named company or of them adopting the same design philosophy. I sincerely hope that they do one of the two soon, however, because it's very good design that's difficult for Cisco to compete against. -

Wlan controller and branch office AP (vlan config)
Hi,
Our wlan controller is located in HQ office and we have APs in branch office. Is it possible to implement two different SSIDs and they should be in two different vlans? So should we configure the AP trunk?
REAP does not support IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging. As such, it does not support multiple VLANs. Traffic from all the service set identifiers (SSID) terminates on the same subnet, but H-REAP supports IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging. Traffic from each SSID can be segmented to a unique VLAN.
ThanksHello,
As per your query i can suggest you the following solution-
Yes, it possible to implement two different SSIDs and they can be in two different vlans.

The wireless user on joining the WLAN enters the PSK and than gets redirected to WLC Web Auth portal for authentication. On successful login, the user is granted access. The issue is that despite Idle Timeout being 28800 sec (8 hours), the WLC removes the client entry before 8 hours if the device goes to sleep - mostly within the first hour. Tested this on Windows 7 notebook multiple times. When the PC is put to sleep, the WLC loses its record after some time. When PC wakes up, it has to undergo Web Auth again. Debugging the client MAC generates these logs - from initial association to final clearing.

If Layer-2 Auth (PSK) is set to "none" and only Layer-3 Web Auth is kept, then there are no issues. PC can wake up before 8 hours and not prompted for Web Auth again. As a test, I setup the WLAN with Layer-2 PSK auth only with Layer-3 auth set to none. The WLC removed the client entry after 25 minutes. Not an issue for PSK based auth only as PC on wake up seamlessly gets associated to WLAN.
Is User Idle Timeout setting not valid when WPA2-PSK is used as the auth method ?
Thanks,
Rick.Thanks Scott, The code version is 7.6.130.0 which supports Sleeping Client feature. However, as per the docu "http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/controller/7-6/configuration-guide/b_cg76/b_cg76_chapter_010111.html#reference_7008E6F7D7094BA7AD39491D7361622D"
The authentication of sleeping clients feature is not supported with Layer 2 security and web authentication enabled.
and as you mentioned as well
...Sleeping client like George mentioned is a better way than adjusting the idle timer but strictly for layer 3 only...
Sleeping Client wasn't an option in my case. That is why I was hoping that Idle Timeout may do the trick here. This is an actual case where a client with an existing wireless network just wanted to enable sleeping client feature so that their guests don't need to re-auth if their device sleeps or they go out (break) and come back after some time. Layer-3 Web Auth alone should be enough I think. Keeping L2-PSK is probably their security team's decision, as they also use the same SSID for BYOD devices and don't want nearby people/buildings to see that there is an Open Wifi available and on joining would see the Web Auth portal and company disclaimer.
George, I agree with Dot1X method. It can be used for the BYOD devices (separate SSID) while we can keep the Guest WLAN as L3-WebAuth only on controller (or do CWA through ISE if available).
Thanks for all your help.

How can I copy a PSK from one WLAN Controller to another
I'm trying to replace a WLAN controller with a new one. One WLAN is configured with WPA-PSK. Nobody seems to know the key that was used.
Anyone know if there is a way to extract the encrypted key out of a controller and put it into the new WLAN Controller?
Thanks in advance.No can do ...

However, if any users are on a MAC Book and has iCloud enabled you can see the key under the "keys". If you have a windows 7 box and uses the native supplicant you can expose the key on the supplicant .. -
I need to bridge a printer off a wireless bridge using a 4402 WLAN Controller
I need to bridge a printer off a wireless bridge using a 4402 WLAN Controller. Would I need to make any changes on the 4402 WLAN Controller?
One options is to take a cisco autonmous access point and configure it as a WGB. And no, you would not have to do anything special to the WLC in thay deisgn. The WGB would act as a wireless client.
Make sense? -
Data flow using a WLAN controller
Can someone explain the flow of data from wireless client to some destination in the internal network (or the Internet) using a WLAN Controller? Use a 4402 as an example.
Specifically, I am wondering if client traffic actually passes thru the WLAN Controller (4402). I am reading the configuration guide and it doesn't seem to be explicitly stated one way or the other.Hi Ken,
This is a very common question these days.
Here is a recent thread as well as an excerpt from a good doc:
http://forum.cisco.com/eforum/servlet/NetProf?page=netprof&forum=Wireless%20-%20Mobility&topic=Getting%20Started%20with%20Wireless&CommCmd=MB%3Fcmd%3Ddisplay_location%26location%3D.1ddaca5d
In the Cisco Centralized WLAN architecture, LWAPP-enabled access points operate in the lightweight mode (as opposed to the autonomous mode). The access points associate to a Cisco WLAN controller. The controller manages the configuration, firmware, and control transactions such as 802.1x authentication. In addition, all wireless traffic is tunneled through the controller.
LWAPP is an IETF draft protocol that defines the control messaging for setup and path authentication and run-time operations. LWAPP also defines the tunneling mechanism for data traffic.
In an LWAPP environment, a Cisco Aironet LWAPP-enabled access point discovers a controller by using LWAPP discovery mechanisms and then sends it an LWAPP join request. The controller sends the access point an LWAPP join response allowing the access point to join the controller. When the access point is joined, the controller downloads its software if the versions on the access point and controller do not match.
LWAPP secures the control communication between the access point and controller by means of a secure key distribution, utilizing X.509 certificates on both the access point and controller.
From this doc:

Same wlan both locally switched and centrally switched
Scenario:
1 virtual wireless controller
50 access points, some of them some local to the controller (same site), other on remote sites, all in flexconnect mode.
Is there a way for a wlan to be locally switched for a group of ap's, essentialy those local to the controller, and centrally switched for other groups of ap's, in fact those placed on remote sites?
I've tried configuring flexconnect groups, and ap groups, but no luck, I've found no way to override the globally configured flag "flexconnec local switching".
I've also tried to create two identical wlans, one locally switched and the second globally switched, but the wlc refuses to activate the second one since it has the same ssid of the first one.
Regards,
Massimo.Since you have vWLC all AP needs to be in FlexConnect mode (If you got a normal WLC you can keep HQ AP in local mode & Remote AP in Flex mode to achieve this)
I think in your case you have to either choose "Central Switching" or "local switching" for your APs.
