Unable to manage WLC using wired connection

forkatheophil26536 — Sat, 05 Nov 2022 07:10:21 GMT

Hi all,

I am currently able to manage my WLC AIR-CT3504 using wireless connection but not able to do so using wired connection even though i have ensured that i am using the same ip. I can ping the wlc ip but cannot access it when on wired connection.

I also receive a Connection timed-out error when trying to access the wlc via GUI.

I can access the wlc via wireless without any issues but i can't access it via wired connection

- Check the network-path between the client and the controller (e.g. ping) , make sure not intermediate devices are blocking the needed connectivity

If your wired ip is on one of the configured dynamic interfaces on your controller? If so, that is blocked unless you enable it.

config network mgmt-via-dynamic-interface enable
