AP1400 bridge Dot1q trunk assistance

I am trying to set up a point to (multi)point bride using Cisco AP1400 wireless bridges.

Catalyst 4500 - 1400 Root - 1400 NotRoot - Cat3650

I am trying to run 3 vlans across this link.  Voice, Data and Management

I can get everything connected and talking on the native VLAN, but no luck with the other 2.  Looking at the vlans on the bridge, they appear to be passing traffic... but I can't seem to get anywhere when connected to them.  I have no routing set up other than a default gateway on the far switch.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Local C4500 port config:

interface FastEthernet4/14

switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

switchport trunk native vlan 999

switchport trunk allowed vlan 20,102,999

switchport mode trunk

Hi,

Mark: Glad it works, just a quick note: you dont need a Bridge-group on the BVI interface since its actually a layer-3 interface. I have corrected it. but for your APs to work, you need the BVI interface or simply they wouldnt be able to access internet or routed on the router.

Let me know if you understand Integrated routing bridging.

You need the following commands to be added:

bridge 2 protocol ieee

bridge 2 route ip

bridge 3 protocol ieee

bridge 3 route ip


and you have to setup a gateway for the bridges interfaces:

int bvi 2     (Gateway for Wireless users on vlan 102)

ip address x.x.x.x y.y.y.y.

int bvi 3     (Gateway for Wireless users on vlan 20)

ip address z.z.z.z f.f.f.f

It should work after that,

--Nevermind - I had the bridge groups misconfigured on AP2.

Thanks for the help!

Hi Mark,

Could you please let me know if this question was related to a specific deal, could you also provide us with the Deal ID?

The BR1400 Bridges are used to wirelessly connect two networks (usually in different buildings).
When two or more bridges are used, one bridge must be defined as the ROOT BRIDGE. Cisco
wireless bridges default to operation in root bridge mode. In any bridge domain (group of
connected bridges) there should exist only one Root Bridge. Other bridges must be configured to
operate in non-root mode. The NON-ROOT Bridge will initiate a link to the root bridge and all
bridges can subsequently transmit data.
please check the below link for more info;-
