Forwarding State Blocking

DAVID BREECE — Sun, 04 Jul 2021 03:32:39 GMT

I have 3 Cisco 350 Series AP 12.00T. in the setup menu under AP Radio Advanced 2 of them say Forwarding State Forwarding. 1 AP says Forwarding State Blocking. When attempting to connect to the blocking AP through a workstation the connection is always limited. A proper connection cannot be made. Even After reboot a connection cannot be made.

Re: help !!!ap350 Radio Forwarding State: Blocking

Check your configuration and make sure that packet forwarding is enabled on the Ethernet Advanced Page. Also make sure you have clients associated to the AP. If there are no clients associated, then the AP will automatically go into Blocking State. The following is an excerpt from this URL:http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/wireless/airo_350/accsspts/ap350scg/ap350ch3.htm#wp1025620

"The forwarding state displays the port's current forwarding state. The state for normal operation is Forwarding. Four other settings are possible:

•Unknown—The state cannot be determined.

•Disabled—Forwarding capabilities are disabled.

•Blocking—The port is blocking transmission. Blocking is always displayed when there are no clients associated to the access point.

•Broken—This state reports an Ethernet port failure "
