I have a 5508 wireless lan controller with a WPlus 100 AP license installed on it. The controller MGMT IP address is an internal IP (172.x.x.x). I setup a 1:1 static NAT, with an externally accessible (208.x.x.x) being translated to the inside mgmt address (172.x.x.x) of the controller with ports 5246, and 5247 UDPports open. I've connected the OEAP (1142) to the controller inside my network (primed it) and set it to H-reap mode. I then selected the office extend ap under the H-reap tab as per the 6.0 config guide.In the High Availabilty tab I've put the name of the controller and the externally accessible IP (208.x.x.x).
When I connect the OEAP to the outside world I look under the montior -> statistics -> AP join page and I see the AP with a successfull discovery phase message :"Received Discovery request and sent response" However the Join phase statistics are all zeroed out. Is there something I'm missing? Does the controller have to be in the DMZ or have an external MGMT IP for OEAPs to join?
Thanks
