WLC 5508: LAG with not stacked switches

Hello!
We are planning to implement the redundant physical connection from 5508 WLC to not stacked 3750 switches.
The sheme is attached.
Is there any way to implement such variant of the topology?

When you don't have LAG enabled, you can choose a primary port and a backup port.
Do you mean to choose primary and backup for managment interface?
As it is mentioned in documentation about AP-managment: "You cannot map the AP-manager interface to a backup port"

  • WLC 5508 issue with 4 ports in portchannel

    Hi,
    We have one WLC 5508 and LAG is enabled on it but when we connect 4 cables to a distribution switch only 3 links are sending and receiving traffic and the 4th one is up with outgoing traffic from the distribution switch to WLC but nothing incoming.
    Some APs went down and refuse to be registered back to the WLC. when we shut down the 4th port everything is back to normal.
    the etherchannel config is identical and I can see all ports are active and not suspended :

    I already go to this link to check the Description of errors-
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/message/guide/msgs4.html#wp1000139
    Appreciate all feedback. Thank you.

    Hi Ruben,
    a) After successful dot1x authentication, session keys are derived from pairwise master key.
    b) When the AP transmits a key to a station by default, it expects a response back within a set timeframe.
    c) If the station does not respond, the AP increments the counter and retransmits the key.
    d) If the AP receives a response to first message just after the retransmission of the key, a mismatch occurs in the counter.
    This in most of the cases will be a client driver problem.
    Solution :
    1) try to increase the EAPOL-Key Timeout ( config advanced eap ).
    2) Upgrade the client driver.

  • WLC 5508 and LAP1310 - Not syncing up!

    As the title states I have a WLC 5508 and a LAP1310 that will not sync up.
    The error stated in the traps log is "AP with MAC (xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx) is unknown."
    WLC software release is : 7.2.103.0
    IOS on the AP is : 12.4(18a)JA2
    Upon some investigation I found that the "AP with MAC is unknown" error usually points to one of two things:
    A.  WLC firmware needs to be updated
    B.  AP needs to be updated.
    C. The AP is not compatible with the WLC.
    I am leaning toward solution C and I am looking for a conformation or a correction, if anyone could help out that would be greatly appreciated!
    I've tried reading the compatibility matrix released by Cisco, but I found it mildly confusing as to what is and isn't supported by each software release.
    Sources - http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6366/products_tech_note09186a00808f8599.shtml#lap1250
    Problem 11: 1250 LAP Not Able to Join WLC
    The setup consists of a 2106 WLC that runs version 4.1.185.0. A Cisco 1250 AP is not able to join the controller.
    The log on the WLC shows this:
    Mon Jun 2 21:19:37 2008 AP with MAC f0:2x:cf:2x:1d:3x (APf02x.cf2x.1d3x) is unknown.
    Mon Jun 2 21:19:37 2008 AP Associated. Base Radio MAC: f0:2x:cf:2x:1d:3x

    Mon Jun 2 21:19:20 2008 AP with MAC f0:2x:cf:2x:1d:3x (APf02x.cf2x.1d3x) is unknown.
    Mon Jun 2 21:19:20 2008 AP Associated. Base Radio MAC: f0:2x:cf:2x:1d:3x 
    Mon Jun 2 21:19:09 2008 AP Disassociated. Base Radio MAC:f0:2x:cf:2x:1d:3x
    Mon Jun 2 21:19:03 2008 AP with MAC f0:2x:cf:2x:1d:3x (APf02x.cf2x.1d3x) is unknown.
    Solution: This is because the Cisco 1250 series LAP is not supported on version 4.1. The Cisco Aironet 1250 Series AP is supported from controller versions 4.2.61 and later. In order to fix this issue, upgrade the controller software to 4.2.61.0 or later.
    Problem 16: 1000 series LAPs not able to join the Wireless LAN controller, WLC runs version 5.0
    This is because WLC software release 5.0.148.0 or later is not compatible with Cisco Aironet 1000 series APs. If you have a Cisco 1000 series LAP in a network, which runs WLC versions 5.0.48.0, the 1000 series LAP does not join the controller and you see this trap message on the WLC.
    "AP with MAC xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx is unkown"

    What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
    What are the properties of this .mp4 video import (video and audio compressions, frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, pixel aspect ratio)?
    If you have any information about the video bitrate and audio bitrate of the file, that would be good to know.
    What is the audio - stereo 2 channel or 5.1 channel?
    What are you (manually) or the project automatically setting as the project preset to match the properties of your source video?
    Let us start here and then decide what next.

  • Need Information of cisco WLC 5508 LAG Interface

    HI
    We have cisco WLC 5508 in our network and right now ,this WLC is connected to two ports of each core switches.Both CORP and GUEST SSID are configured on this WLC.
    Now we want to segregate the trafffic og GUEST to on core switches from WLC. SO my question is ,how can we achieve this without using guest anchor controller ?
    Can i use one interfcae cisco WLC 5508 and connect it to the firewall or any device ?
    Thanks

    Corp network and management network are reachable however management metwork is not pinagble from guest netowrk.

  • HELP! Macbook Pro lag with automatic graphics switching

    Hi people,
    My macbook pro (2010 edition) recently got laggy. I have no idea whether it is because I installed too many applications or if a hidden application is eating into my RAM. When I turn off the automatics graphics switching to the more powerful Nvidia graphics card, the lagging disappears completely. However, with the switching turned on, lagging occurs in just about every function I use, whether it is to check Microsoft Entourage email, surf safari, or scroll along my dock. The lag is not significant, but many less than a half second of freezing and then resuming. Videos streamed online become more laggy.
    This did not happen before, although I vaguely remember having the automatic graphics switching turned on perpetually when I first bought my MBP as an energy saving measure.
    Does anyone experience this same problem with the graphics switching. Looking for serious help. If not, I think I might try restoring my MBP to its factory settings and see if that helps.
    I updated all software on OS X, running on 4gig ram. I am not sure if it is a memory problem because of the graphic switching situation I mentioned earlier.
    Somebody help me.

    Thanks Clinton,
    I had a funny feeling that would be my only option. It becomes very difficult in my part of the world to get to an Apple store (the nearest one is nearly 2 hours away).
    I would love to find out what the cause is and possible remedies.
    Although far from convenient this maybe my only option.
    Thanks for you help.
    If anyone else has experienced similar issues and already received advice after a trip to the Apple store I would be interested to know more about your experiences / possible solutions.
    Regards,
    Phil

  • WLC 5508 LAG and CAt 3750 cross stack

    Hello,
    I would like to use the LAG feature on my 5508 WLCs and connect each of them to two different port of a 3750 stack using cross stack. Do you think it will work?
    Cisco suggests not to connect different LAG ports of a WLC to different CAT3750 but it's not clear if it was referred to different standalone 3750s or to a stackwise of 3750s.
    Tnks all
    Johnny

    The HA kicks in when the primary looses gateway, do a small test, keep a continuous ping to WLC  from its gateway as source and break one of the link in the LAG and see if you drop any packet ?

  • WLC 5508 LAG setup

    Hi,
    I'm trying to setup a 5508 to put multiple management ports into LAG configuration for Etherchannel to the connected switch. I have not found where to configure that in the GUI. Is that a CLI-only command?
    Thanks.

    Following are the information
    You can Find LAG option under genereal option in controller , GUI.
    and to verify
    Verifying Link Aggregation Settings (CLI)
    To verify your LAG settings, enter this command:
    show lag summary
    Information similar to the following appears:
    LAG Enabled
    Configuring Neighbor Devices to Support Link Aggregation
    The controller's neighbor devices must also be properly configured to support LAG. 
    •Each neighbor port to which the controller is connected should be configured as follows:
    interface GigabitEthernet <interface id>

  • WLC 5508 - Issue- Will not start NCS

                       After a powerloss and reboot the unit will not start NCS. The running configuration file apears to be intact. Any suggestions would be apreciated. Currently generation failure logs.
    Thanks in advance
    John D.

    Hi John:
    Power cycling a 5508 wireless LAN controller shouldn't have any impact on NCS.  The best source of accurate information will be the logs.zip file that would come from running the command
    backup-logs 06282013 repository
    That's going to cause all the logs for NCS to be backed and zipped up, and the copy put over on the repository.  Once you have that, you can unzip it, and the place to start would be the hm-0-0.log file.  That's the log of the Health Monitor service that watches over everything and tells the other services like the database, FTP/TFTP servers and such to kick off, and logs what those services do when told to kick off.  Based on which service isn't behaving, you'd check the log for that service for more details of why that service isn't behaving.

  • WLC 5508 software version working with ISE1.1.2

    Hi,
    My understanding is that for fully WLC 5508 integration with ISE 1.1.2, it needs Version 7.2.103.0.  Question is if customer has 5508 with either 7.0.230 or 7.0.98, and ISE 1.1.2, can AAA part work?  what part will not work, any potential issue if they don't upgrade 5508 to 7.2.103?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Cisco WLC 5508 with 3702APs - mobile hotspot for 2000 Guest users

    Cisco WLC 5508 with 3702APs - mobile hotspot for 2000 Guest users
    I've been given a fantastic "opportunity" by my boss to use our existing wireless infrastructure to provide internet access to potentially upto 2000 VIP guests arriving with BYOD devices, in a very densely populated area for a 3 day event. We are talking an area of approx 200m x 15m. Think of it as an awards ceremony/concert. The solution will also be mobile so we will be using internet breakout from different telcos as it will move to approx 20 countries. The area is also incredibly densely populated with other wifi APs. I did a brief site survey and AirMagnet could detect over 2500 other 'rogue' APs from where I was stood! I hope CleanAir works!
    We need a simple authentication method for them to connect with zero admin from our side. We don't want to just offer up a rolling daily PSK as that's a bit amateur and we don't really want the VIP guests sharing the PSK with others during their stay. Ideally they could self-provision by providing an email address.
    I know the WLC can handle webauth for local users but I don't think it scales very well. ie I don't think I can offer the account to several hundred people.
    Cisco ISE looks a very expansive (and expensive) product but I don't think we need all it's capabilities (do I?). It would be nice to just ask a potential user for their email address and grant them access and email them next year. I've seen Cisco NAC but that looks over the top too for just guest users who will only be accessing a shared internet connection.
    I've seen 3rd party supposed software solutions from Kiosk Antamedia etc do they work with Cisco Enterprise WLC solutions?
    We'd like to limit users to a certain (low) bandwidth and block (say) torrent traffic to keep the general user experience worthwhile.
    Does anybody have any case study documents or experience of such a project? As well as the authentication it's how well the APs will handle the dense potential number of clients trying to connect in such a confined space. 
    Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated from the knowledgeable community.
    Cheers,
    Mike

    Hi Rasika,
    We are having WLC 5508 model with software version running 7.4.121.0. AP Models are AIR-CAP2602I.
    Normally our WAN links are good even while the issue pertains. We are connected to remote offices over ipsec site to site vpn for WAN. The link latency in WLC between the AP and the controller shows  <1ms.
    currently the Guest network is using WPA2-PSK auth given in the controller. we are trying to find a option to make the Guest wireless auth local to the office, and see if this solves the problem. 
    any suggestions,
    Thank you,
    Arjun

  • Mapping Multiple VLANs to Multiple SSIDs as one-one in WLC 5508 via H-REAP?

    Hi All,
    Can anyone please show me how to map a SSID/WLAN ID to a local vlan of a LAP in WLC 5508 using H-REAP local switched? The reason of doing this is to separate Data subnet/traffic from Voice as currently all 7925 handsets using same SSID as PCs. I would like to create two VLANs on APs and map them to two SSIDs. I could not see any option in WLC5508 to do this. Also when I change the AP mode from H-REAP to local and configuring sub interface using dot1q on the interface Gi0 then unable write running-config to startup-config because I get NVRAM Verification Failed as WLC protects any local changes on any registered LAP at NVRAM.
    Your help is much appreciated.

    Mehdi:
    I am talking about HREAP groups, not AP groups.
    You can not achieve what you want if you are using the same SSID on same AP with only a WLC (same AP with same SSID is mapped to different VLANs). You may need a radius server to dynamically assign a VLAN to the clients if you are using same SSID for data and voice.
    If you are using different SSIDs for voice and data, you can map each SSID to its corresponding VLAN on the remote site using the VLAN mapping option under HREAP tab in the AP config page.
    You can not configure the AP from its console. Lightweight APs can only be configured from the controller. (a few exceptions are available that do not apply here) .
