WLAN LLDP capability not sent by an AIR-AP2802I-E-K9

Jave — Mon, 27 Nov 2023 15:25:24 GMT

Hi,

Can you explain to me why a Cisco AP AIR-AP2802I-E-K9 doesn't send WLAN capability through LLDP TLV type 7 ? Just "bridge" capability is actually sent.

Thanks in advance.

Regards.

Can you post complete boot log of AP from the time Power on AP, what Code running in it ?

I think that's just the way Cisco designed it to work.

You could try 9800 with latest software and see whether that's any different but otherwise it will be a feature enhancement request via your Cisco account team.

It works perfectly well as an AP like that. If you happen to be using that TLV then you might be out of luck.

I looked at a 9105 running 17.9.4.206 and it's still the same so I think it's safe to assume that Cisco have never implemented that on their APs. So it will definitely be a feature enhancement request. You should discuss with your Cisco account team if you really need it.

Amazing that Cisco hasn't implemented this natively. Never seen this from other manufacturers. Thanks for the help.
