AP Registration with Controller

Catalin Sandu — Mon, 05 Jul 2021 10:59:48 GMT

Hi,

Is there a way to select with what controller can an AP register ? I have 40APs and 2 controllers and I want to be able to choose with what controllers an AP will register based on MAC Address?

Thank you!

Hi,

Are these new APs or production APs. If new, you could prime the AP by manually specifying what controller to connect to. If these are production access points, you could use the High Availability tab on the AP configuration page of the controller.

Thanks

Hi Catalin,

1. Yes you can use the Authorize AP's against AAA.

2. By enabling this feature, only those AP's whose mac-addresses are present in the authorization list of WLC, will be able to register to the it.

3. Allow 20 mac of AP in WLC1 and another 20 mac address of AP in WLC2.

Here is the explanation:

On the WLC, use the AP

On the WLC, use the AP authorization list to restrict LAPs based on their MAC address. The AP authorization list is available under Security > AP Policies in the WLC GUI.

Complete these steps:

From the WLC controller GUI, click Security > AP Policies.
The AP Policies page appears.
Under Policy Configuration, check the box for Authorize APs against AAA.
When this parameter is selected, the WLC checks the local authorization list first. If the LAP's MAC is not present, it checks the RADIUS server.
Click the Add button on the right hand side of the screen.
Under Add AP to Authorization List, enter the AP MAC address. Then, choose the certificate type and click Add.

thank you all!
