I have a 1230 AP. I can ping the BVI from the ethernet side but not from the radio side. I can ping other devices on the ethernet side from the radio side. And I even see the WAP and the wireless client in the ARP table of both devices. Is there some reason I cannot contact the WAP from the wireless side ??</P><P></P><P></P> Sun, 04 Jul 2021 18:45:38 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/wireless/cannot-ping-the-bvi-interface-over-wireless-why/m-p/590254#M154766 armonk_netdesk 2021-07-04T18:45:38Z Re: Cannot ping the BVI interface over wireless - WHY ??? https://community.cisco.com/t5/wireless/cannot-ping-the-bvi-interface-over-wireless-why/m-p/590255#M154767 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I believe that falls under the catagory of a "security feature."</P><P></P><P>If you also cannot ping from wireless device-to-wireless device, the you may have secure packet forwarding enabled (prevents one wireless client from being able to "attack" another wireless client).</P><P></P><P>You can disable secure packet forwarding easily in the "Interfaces" page of the WebGUI. </P><P></P><P>Check it out, let us know.</P><P></P><P>Good Luck</P><P></P><P>Scott</P><P></P><P></P><P></P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 09 Mar 2006 20:35:37 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/wireless/cannot-ping-the-bvi-interface-over-wireless-why/m-p/590255#M154767 scottmac 2006-03-09T20:35:37Z Re: Cannot ping the BVI interface over wireless - WHY ??? https://community.cisco.com/t5/wireless/cannot-ping-the-bvi-interface-over-wireless-why/m-p/590256#M154768 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Thanks for the response.
