Cisco 1410 Wireless Bridge issues

Level 1

I have recently had to deploy a 1410 in a Root/Non-root bridge configuration to expand a terrestrial network across to an uncabled area.

All switches in play are 2960 series and the bridge is running with multiple Vlans.

Basic config as follows.

service nagle
no service pad
service tcp-keepalives-in
service tcp-keepalives-out
service timestamps debug datetime msec localtime show-timezone
service timestamps log datetime msec localtime show-timezone
service password-encryption
service sequence-numbers

end

the second endpoint of course is idential except for the management IP and the mode is NON-ROOT.

Only other things of note are the switches in the network are also managed on Vlan2 not sure if it would matter or not.

My problem seems to be when TACCACS kicks in I see some strange behaviour. I first may lose management of either the root or the non-root end of the bridge. I can ping one but not the other. yet i can see the switchs on both ends. Other times i cannot retrieve management of the switch on the non-root end. I can also not use cdp neighbors to report equipment on the far end of the bridge.

Does anyone have working experience with the 1410 that can advise what is happening or supply a sample config as a base for me to look at.

The sample for the 1310 has a few changes in the commands available as well.
