Prashant,

What version of IOS are you running on the AP?

Justin

Hi ,

Thanks for reply

Below is the ios.

c1200-k9w7-mx.123-8.JA2

Regards,

Prashant

Prashant,

That code is about 5 years old. Can you upgrade to recent code and see if the issue persists?

Justin

HI Justin.

I updated it to mention version but still issue is not fixed

C1200 Software (C1200-K9W7-M), Version 12.3(8)JEC3,

Prashant,

This is a strange issue. Have you tried putting the configuration on a different access point to eliminate hardware as a cause?

Does anyone else have access to the AP besides you and are you sure no one (or nothing) else has logged in besides you? (You can check logs for this)

If you've eliminated hardware and software, and you're sure someone else isn't logging into the AP (or something else, like an SNMP management box of some kind), then your next step would be to contact TAC as I think at that point this behavior falls outside any kind configuration or environmental problem and sounds more like a bug.

Feel free to post your config and I'll look it over to see if anything looks out of order.

Justin

Hi,

I have 5 AP with same issue.No Only i have the access to all access point .

Please find the configuration

Prashant,

When I saw your ACL list, I thought, whoa, that's a long ACL (over 100 entries). I wonder if you are bumping into upper resource limits on the AP. An ACL that long is undoubtedly running up the CPU utilization every time a client associates.

Given the size of this ACL, have you considered offloading MAC address checking to a RADIUS server? At least this way you'll tax the CPU of your AP a lot less, and it will eliminate the need to replicate your ACLs across 5 APs. You would only have to add each client MAC address once to your RADIUS server. You can do this with Windows IAS or NPS (included with Windows server), ACS, ISE, and most other RADIUS servers.

Justin

I found the reason

When i want to remove oneof mac client then i use

in config mode

no access-list 710 permit 5894.6b1e.7c58   0000.0000.0000

it suppose to remove only this client but it is removing all access list 710

it is a bug.

Prashant,

I don't think that's a bug. In my experience, I've found that a no access-list [parameters] just removes the whole access list. I.e., with that particular command, you can't selectively remove lines from ACLs by specifying the whole ACL line. The parser stops at no access-list and just deletes it entirely.

I just tried it on a 3560 switch and had the above described result. (Anyone feel free to jump in here and clarify if what I'm saying isn't true on other IOS platforms.)

I haven't played much with extended access-lists, but I believe with xACLs you can selectively remove and reorder entries.

Justin

Yes you are correct.

Do you have any idea to delete a entry in number access list case.

Prashant,

You can do it through the AP's web gui. On the CLI, I think you're stuck with modifying the ACL in a text file and replacing it each time you make a change.

I'll say it again, but I think this would be a lot cleaner if you just pointed all your APs at a RADIUS server and managed your MAC addresses just like you would users. No more ACLs on the APs necessary.
