Cisco 1532 Autonomous AP's P2P Bridge error

[Ramkumar P]

Can someone help in configuring 1532's autonomous AP's as point to point bridge. 

I have configured root and Non root but Root show the radio up but not the Non root bridge it shows reset and protocol down.

TTried removing the changing roles (Root and non root) between AP's but still no luck.

below error in NRoot AP

Configs attached for your reference.

The Non-Root will show status reset when it can't establish a connection to the Root.

On your Root, try adding Infrastructure-SSID under the SSID configuration

Yes, try what Steve suggested & that should work. Here is a sample bridge config though it is not with exact 1532 model, config should be applicable.

Hi Rasika,

Thanks. I used the mrncciew.com for the reference and tried with a spare 1532 AP as well, still the same. Suspecting something new in this model AP's since i couldnt find much documents for this model.

Any Clues/Suggestions ?

Cheers

Hi,
Managed to get them connected, but I cannot get all the VLAN's pass through the P2P bridges. Only the transit VLAN can be reached from site to site.

Transit VLAN IP is configured for all the devices (Switches and AP's).

In Switch port where AP's connected is configured as trunk with native VLAN and allowed all the VLAN traffic on both the ends. Still other VLAN's cannot be pinged from core.
AP's configured for dot11 1 interface for 5Ghz antenna. and sub interfaces/radoi's configured in AP. 

Routing >

Attached the topology for your reference. VLAN 1 is shut, Transit VLAN subnet 10.1.8.X/24

Please help me with this, if any other information needed please let me know....

Thanks
