Cisco Wireless Mobile App

[Aaron]

As of August 2020, the Cisco Wireless Mobile App is no longer supported and no longer available.

If using the Cisco Embedded Wireless Controller on Catalyst Access Points (EWC-AP), you can use the Cisco Catalyst Wireless Mobile Application to provision and manage your network.  Thank you for using the Cisco Wireless Mobile App.

Hello Aaron,

Does this mobile application work at all with 8.0 MR2 (8.0.120)?

Thanks in advance

Mitch

[Aaron]

No, it requires 8.1.

[mbrustman]

Ok Thanks for the quick response Aaron as always!

Hi, does this app work with IOS based controllers such as the WLC 5760 ? Thanks.

[jepatil]

No. This app only works with AireOS controllers today. 

Future consideration to add suport for IOS based controllers.

Hi.  Does the wireless mobile app work with the virtual controller?  I just upgraded to 8.1.131 in order to give the app a try.  I specify the IP address and the login credentials and tell the app to "Add" the controller.  It alerts me to a certificate issue, but I select the option to continue anyway.  Then I get an alert saying "Error in connection. Please try again later."  Of course, later it doesn't work either.  :-)

So I'm stuck. Any suggestions would be appreciated!  Thanks!

Hi, I m so sorry to hear about your experience with the App. To help us debug the issue further, would you mind sharing the exact model of you phone / app version / WLC model. This information will help us get to the bottom of the issue. 

If you are using Android, please make sure the android version is above 4.4 and above. We have had compatibility issues in the past because of this. 

Thanks for your patience and look forward to hearing from you.

Well, the WLC is virtual, so it's a VM running on ESXi 5.5.  The phone is an iPhone 6+, and it's running iOS 9.1.  The Cisco Wireless app is version 1.0.145.

What do you think?

[kekoch]

Bump...

Kevin - This was tested and should work. We are trying to repro the issue to see whats happening. I am looping you in on the discussion

[kekoch]

I found the problem.  I had turned off "Mgmt via wireless" under the "Management" section of the controller.  Once I toggled that on, the iPhone app started working.  Thanks!!!

What considerations do we need to be aware of when managing a Mobility Express system, as it uses self-signed certificates? Will we get an error, or an accept-certificate message before proceeding?

Thanks,

Brian
