Hello
I have a 3800 running as a ME and its running as a controller, which works fine. I have added additional 1832i which is converted and image is matching that of 3800. To power the 1832i i am using the AIR-PWR-C= but it won't join the controller.
I keep getting "Max retransmission count exceeded, going back to DISCOVER mode." I am not sure what i am doing wrong, any help would be great. Thanks

Here are my answers:
1. yes
2. Yes it will work if you both APs (ME WLC and 1832 ap)in same domain.
3. -B and -A domain belongs to USA thats the reason both working together.
4. Canada regulatory domain must be -A. If you use -S domain in canda then its not legel and it will not work.

AP(1832) is with -S domain which is not correct and you are running US as country code on WLC.
To connect to US coutnry code wlc you must AP with -B domain.
Edit: -S domain is used for Brunei, Hongcong, ..etc
08-20-2019 10:25 PM
So the AP needs to be "B" in it? instead of S

AIR-AP1832I-S-K9
This AP has -S domain, whcih will not comatibile with 3800 (-B) domain. It will not work.
