Create new WLAN using PI 2.2

bret · ‎04-15-2015

I recently upgraded to PI 2.2. Now where the heck do you create a new WLAN? I tried configuration/network devices/wlc/my controller, select controller, then configure, but there is no WLAN. Am I missing a step. I really wish they documented major changes like this when a new version is released.

Thanks for the help!

Hi,

First try to change the view of PI from Lifecycle to Classic(see the screenshot).

then Choose Configure > Controller Template Launch Pad.
Click WLAN or choose WLANs > WLAN Configuration

Hope it helps.

Regards

Unfortunately Sandeep the Classic Theme has been deprecated.

One approach might be to create a WLAN template and apply it to the WLC:

Configuration > Templates > Features and Technologies > Controller > WLANs > WLAN Configuration.

You can find more information in the Prime 2.2 Reference Guide below-

Go figure was missing a few radius attributes that prevented me from seeing the Features and Technologies. Maybe you can check this as a correct answer to help the next guy.

From Prime:

Administration/User groups

Click the task list to the right of the group you want to use the attributes of.

Copy these attributes and apply them to your radius server, or tacacs server.

Be sure to include the virtual domain as part of your attributes.
