Hi Friend,

I believe you must have configured your 2106 controller with management interface ip address,mask and gateway and vlan number.

Then connect your AP to switch on same vlan what you have configured on management interface on your controller and your APs should join controller.

thanks Ankur for your help

I am using untagged vlan so its number is = 0 ? and I am using this config

AP1010 ===port8===== TO WLC2106

AP1010======port7=== TO WLC2106

Is it necessary to work in tagged mode with vlan

number 1 or 2 in order to make it work ?

I send you below the parameters we entered during the setup of our WLC2106 :

Management Interface IP Address: 172.18.124.200

Management Interface Netmask: 255.255.0.0

Management Interface Default Router: 172.18.124.199

Management Interface VLAN Identifier (0 = untagged): 0

Management Interface Port Num [1 to 8]: 1

Management Interface DHCP Server IP Address: 172.18.124.200

AP Manager Interface IP Address: 172.18.124.201

AP-Manager is on Management subnet, using same values

AP Manager Interface DHCP Server (172.18.124.200): 172.18.124.200

Virtual Gateway IP Address: 1.1.1.1

Mobility/RF Group Name: mrf

Network Name (SSID): atm

Allow Static IP Addresses [YES][no]: no

Configure a RADIUS Server now? [YES][no]: no

Warning! The default WLAN security policy requires a RADIUS server.

Please see documentation for more details.

Enter Country Code (enter 'help' for a list of countries) [US]: us

Enable 802.11b Network [YES][no]: yes

Enable 802.11a Network [YES][no]: yes

Enable 802.11g Network [YES][no]: yes

Enable Auto-RF [YES][no]: yes

Hi Friend,

You can keep it untagg but on switch you might have configured some native vlan correct? I believe you must be aware theat you need to have trunk between controller and switch?

So whatever native vlan you have configured on controller connect your APs on switch on same vlan.

hi friend ankur

i m not using switch at all because ap 1010 are connected directely to wlc 2106(of course i will use switch later in order to deploy this installation )

so is it necesary to use a switch ? or i can configure ap 1010 and wlc without a switch ?

thanks for your help

Hi Friend,

All you need to do is create an internal DHCP scope (that the management ip address is in) on the controller and the controller will hand out DHCP ip addresses for the Aps that are directly connected to it.

Use the management ip address for the DHCP server ip address on the management and ap-manager interfaces and define a local DHCP scope.

hi friend,

thank you for your reply,

i try this solution but it dosn't work plz see debug.

i create dhcp scope 25.0.0.20 to 25.0.0.30 with interface management is 25.0.0.25.

i give dhcp server for ap-manager and managment interface 25.0.0.25.

and i have this debug result:

thank you for your help,

Hi Friend,

So now we find out the reason. There is a mismatch regulatory domain. From your debugs "80211bg Regula

tory Domain (-E) does not match with country (US ) reg. domain -A for the slot

1"

If you see your AP b/g radio is configured for UK and your controller is configured for US domain and is the reason AP is not joining.

Change it accordingly and you will be good to go.

hi friend,

thank you for your reply.

now the APs take address from controller :

(Cisco Controller) >show dhcp leases

MAC IP Lease Time Remaining

00:0b:85:90:fc:d0 25.0.0.21 23 hours 59 minutes 31 seconds

00:0b:85:90:ef:60 25.0.0.20 23 hours 59 minutes 20 seconds

but i can't ping from controller to APs how can i do to ping and get access to AP web interface to manage AP.

(Cisco Controller) >ping 25.0.0.21

Send count=3, Receive count=0 from 25.0.0.21

(Cisco Controller) >ping 25.0.0.20

Send count=3, Receive count=0 from 25.0.0.20

thank you for your help,

Hi Friend,

You will never be able to access the AP via WEB GUI as in controller base architecture APs are always manageable by controller and not manageable individually.

Also your APs have not yet joined controller because there is a domain name mismatch as I stated in my last post. So first make the domain name name on controller and AP by changing country setting in controller to UK and then your AP will join controller and then from controller GUI you can manage AP.

Hi Friend,

i config controller country with Fr cuz UK not supported by 2106, the aps take here address from dhcp internal but i can't ping or get access web to manage my APs.
