WLC-5508 Authorization failed to create SSID

xs.gautam — Sun, 04 Jul 2021 04:05:49 GMT

Hi All,

I have two WLC-5508 for 50 AP's deployed. One is primary controller & other is secondary.

Recently noticed an unknown "authorization failed, no sufficient privileges for user" message poping up while making configuration changes

in WLC. Specificly when trying to create an new SSID. WLC Authentication is local. This message poped up earlier once or twice but it didnt prevent

from making changes that time.

How to troubleshoot ?

Regards

Gautam

Do you have any radius configured on the WLC by chance. If so can you make sure you don't have management checked there. I have not seen that issues with the 5508 and any of the 7.x code as of yet.

Did you configure privilege user account on TACACS to manage specific WLC feature.

Security>> priority order>> management user>> do you see only local and or tacacs.
