Problem with connecting LWAP and Printers in 2 separate locations

1888908 — Wed, 18 Jun 2025 14:33:11 GMT

Hi evryone, I am currently trying to connect LWAP in both my Johannesburg and Cape Town locations but I seem to be unable to connect the LWAP in Cape to get assigned an IP address from the DHCP server but it works in Johannesburg. Also the DHCP does not seem to allocate IP addresses to the printers(vlan60) in Cape Town(vlan 30) and the 3rd location Potchefstroom(vlan 40). P.S. the LWAP should be allocated IP addresses one from VLAN 10 and one from VLAN 100. Pleased see my pkt file for my network. Thanks in advance

@1888908 questions about Packet Tracer simulations should really be posted in the relevant Cisco Learning Network community - not here.

Not sure what you are trying to do but an AP can only have one (1) IP address and that should be in the native VLAN of the switchport it is connected and if the AP is in Local Mode then you can use an access port in the correct VLAN which is effectively the same as native VLAN on trunk port (untagged).
