LWAPP conversion and AP's disappear

vancamt76 · ‎05-04-2009

I have 3 access points that I recently converted to LWAPP. After the conversion, all 3 AP's are now MIA - no sign of them in WCS or on any of our controllers. I can trace them back to the switch that they are directly connected to and they do pull a DHCP address. I found this on the firewall:

May 04 2009 16:39:58: %ASA-7-710005: UDP request discarded from <AP's ip>/26586 to inside:255.255.255.255/12223

I am wondering if there is something on the firewall that is blocking the requests from the AP's to join the controller.

Any thoughts?

I hope I'm not stating the obvious but if the APs and Controllers are on different sides of a firewall you will need to open ports 12222 & 12223 on the firewall for the LWAPP traffic
