WLC-WLAN and SSID config

[0natanael0]

Hi everyone,

Im trying to add a SSID to be broadcasted on an AP. This one didnt exist before as I didnt administer the controller, the issue that I have is that I dont need or want to configure an IP in the interface that one has to create; this because there is a dhcp server in the vlan and I just want it to be layer 2 transparent.

If the dynamic interface doesn't have an IP address then the DHCP request won't know how to get back in.

You need to create the interface at the WLC to specify the VLAN ID. Assign an unused IP Address to the WLC. It will not act as a router, just make sure you set "DHCP Proxy mode" to disabled and you´ll get IP addresses from the DHCP Server you have on your LAN.
