DHCP relay with wlc 2106

marc
Level 1
Level 1

DHCP Clients are getting IPs from a windows based dhcp server without issue however the wlc is setting itself as the gateway address. When this happens no traffic flows as the controller is not doing any routing. Is this how it should be or is something wrong?

How do you have your wlan setup.... seems like something isn't configured right. The subnet the wireless clients need to be put on will need a dynamic interface configured in which the dhcp server ip will be entered. On the wlan ssid, you map that ssid to the interface you create. This is the normal way of setting up wireless using WLC's. Post your show run-config so we can see how you are setting the wlc up.

The wireless clients are on the same subnet as the wlc and the dhcp server.

Attach he show run-config you ran a show running-config. Attach the text file makes it easier to read.

Sorry, missed that. Requested file attached.

It looks like 192.168.30.1 is the default gateway of your management network, however you say you have a windows DHCP server. Yet the DHCP server for the VLAN27 etc interfaces are set to 192.168.30.1.

Is 192.168.30.1 really the IP addr of the DHCP server?

Regards,

Jonas

192.168.30.1 is the default gateway of the management network. It also doubles as the DHCP server for all clients. If you check an earlier post I think I have included the DHCP procedure that indicates where the clients get their IPs from.
