AP 3600 and Switch 3560 ISSUES

[jaxelson]

I have just bought a new AP 3600 autonomous i am trying to get it on my network i connected it to a Catlyst 3560 and i get recvd errors and i can not connect to it. I have the Port trunked and encapsulation i have set a static ip address for the AP I replace a 1200 AP and it worked fine on the port but the new 3600 dose not. here is a screen shot of config files

You should set the native VLAN on the port to that of whatever VLAN the 192.168.50.0/24 network correlates to.  If it is VLAN1, you are running into another issue.

Hi James,

You are connecting 3600 AP (max data rate 450Mbps) onto a swichport having 100Mbps capacity. Your switchport will become the bottleneck.

I would suggest test this AP connecting to a 1Gbps switchport & you should not have any issues.

As Johnston highlighted, your AP BVI interface should be on native vlan across AP-SW trunk port. As per your switch configuration native vlan is 1, so as long as vlan 1 having 192.168.50.x it will work, otherwise you want get AP rechability from rest of your network. If you do not have multiple SSID, then below is the simplest configuration you can do. With below configuration if you connect this to a DHCP vlan switchport, your wireless clients will get IP from that vlan.(also AP mgt will be on the same subnet)

hostname

!

dot11 ssid

   authentication open

   authentication key-management wpa version 2

   guest-mode

   wpa-psk ascii

!

interface Dot11Radio0

encryption mode ciphers aes-ccm

ssid

no shutdown

!

interface Dot11Radio1

encryption mode ciphers aes-ccm

ssid

no shutdown

!

interface BVI1

ip address dhcp

If you want multiple SSID, then you need to create radio/ ethernet sub-interfaces.
