Re: Wism Module Controller 2 not detect IP Address

Muhamad,

Thanks for posting your output.

Here are some quick observations:

I saw a similar issue once before, including getting no response from the console port on controller 2 and I think it may have something to do with the auto-configuration of the wism controllers and possibly the 5.2 revision of code. I didn't troubleshoot long enough to figure it out, but I was able to fix the issue, so I'll outline the procedure for you below. Hopefully it will help you.

I noticed that you have VLAN 900 on your wism portchannels, and because 900 is also your service VLAN, you do not (and should not) put it on the portchannels. Only the service ports need to be on VLAN 900. Also in this vein, you do not need to declare 900 as your native vlan on the controllers, and if your controller management interfaces are going to be in one of VLANs 8,15,19,31,40-41,44,50-51,200,208,212, or 800, then you do not need any native VLAN declared. You only need the native VLAN if you are going to leave your management VLAN ID tag at 0 (default).

Finally, and this is likely unrelated to your problem, but you are missing VLAN 44 on the controller 2 wism portchannel. If you want the same VLANs allowed on both wism controllers then be sure to correct the missing VLAN:

show wism module 9 controller 1 status

...

Allowed-vlan list : 8,15,19,31,40-41,44,50-51,200,208,212,800,900

show wism module 9 controller 2 status

...

Allowed-vlan list : 8,15,19,31,40-41,50-51,200,208,212,800,900

NOTE: You cannot have the controller management interface IPs and the service-port IPs in the same subnets.

OK, to try to recover from the unreachable wism controller 2 issue, try these steps:

1. Connect a console cable to the console port on wism controller 2 and start your console application

2. Separately, ssh/telnet to your 6500 (or on a console on another machine) and issue the command hw-module module 9 reset

... This will initiate a soft reload of the entire wism module

3. On your console, watch for your wism controller 2 to boot. When you see the the autoconfigure prompts, choose to exit autoconfiguration.

4. You should now be able to run through a basic setup wizard. Set the Service-Port config to DHCP (this should be the default).

5. When prompted to save and reboot, choose YES and this time around, you should see the controller come up and you will hopefully see that the service-port gets an IP

If you never see the wism controller 2 boot, then you may have a failed controller, so the next step may need to be a call into TAC.

thank you justin...

because willing help me to solve my problem and sharing your knowledge and skills. however, i'm not use yet your way to troubleshoot actually, because, after you give me the way to troubleshoot this matter, i try tu put console cable on console port controller 2, and then it display a basic setup. so, i'm just put the info that needed. and then service port interface was got the IP Address. and controller 2 can be used now.

thanks again justin..

Muhamad,

I'm glad to hear that your wism is alive.

When you get a chance, can you mark this question as answered for the benefit of future searchers?

Thanks!

Muhamad Badulisham Md Desa — Sat, 24 Mar 2012 04:15:32 GMT

hope anyone can help me again..

ok, i already install wism controller 1 and controller 2 and all connection is up. i want to move a AP in controller 1 to controller 2, i already set that AP use controller 2 as primary controler , and then i reset the AP. the problem is, the AP cannot move to controller 2 and in the same time its not in controller 1 also.

so, what the problem actually and how to solve this promlem?.

Re: Wism Module Controller 2 not detect IP Address

George Stefanick — Sat, 24 Mar 2012 06:55:52 GMT

When you use the high availability, you need to make sure you use the controller name and ip address. Did you double check they are correct ?

Re: Wism Module Controller 2 not detect IP Address

Muhamad Badulisham Md Desa — Sun, 25 Mar 2012 08:05:42 GMT

thanks george...i did double check, i try again with another AP, move to controller 2 with set high availability, the problem still the same...

Re: Wism Module Controller 2 not detect IP Address

George Stefanick — Sun, 25 Mar 2012 15:13:51 GMT

Is controller 1 and controller 2 in the same mobility group ? Is there an ACL anywhere that might prevent them AP moves?

Re: Wism Module Controller 2 not detect IP Address

Muhamad Badulisham Md Desa — Tue, 27 Mar 2012 00:09:20 GMT

Yes..already set in the same mobility group...but still cannot move...
