Access VLANs and Internet through multiple wireless SSIDs, using Autonomous AP AIR-CAP3702
Challenge:
Access internet through autonomous Access Point (Air-Cap3702i-e-k9) which populated multiple SSIDs that connected to the VLANs at Remote Office.
Diagnoses:
With having difficulties establishing a link (connection) between Lightweight Access Point (Air-CAP3702-E-K9) and Wireless Controller (WLC4402) to access WLANs.
Solution:
Special Note:
Here mentioned ip addresses and passwords are imaginary once those are not use in real but only for educational purpose use them in here.
The CLI commands created here only for few VLANs and SSIDs for easy understanding as an example VLAN 10 and VLAN 20. Below attached files contain complete list of VLANs and SSIDs which configuerd each device, those CLI commands can use for study purposes and references. SSIDs names and VLANs names are same which use for easiness but can be used different friendly name for each SSIDs even though have to remember to assign correct VLAN number for each SSID.
