2602AP's Won't Register with 5508 Controller

dgood1234
Level 1
Level 1

Hello everyone -

We have a 5508 controller that manages AP's at approximately 20 branches - each branch has their own subnet. We have a single branch (subnet) with new 2602 AP's that will not register with the controller. All communications to this subnet appear normal and there are no ACL's in place between the AP's and the controller. The AP's are able to resolve the controller IP address via DNS and begin the registration process but then timeout. We have successfully installed 2602 AP's at other branch locations and they register with no problems - this is only a problem at a single branch. I've attached some debug messages below for a single AP (this is a production environment so I parsed un-necessary info) and also included the console messages from a different AP (the console messages on the AP's are the same). There are currently 9 AP's at this location and none of them will register. Any ideas??

Getting alot better.

The WAP has selected the 5508 with the correct firmware.  The WAP sends a JOIN Request to 10.5.13.4 but cannot get anything back.

Firewall?  Routing loop?

This so-called "remote site", how is it connected back to your office?  Dark fibre?  ISP?

Y'know what?  Can you post the output to the following commands:

1.  WAP:  sh inventory;

2.  WLC:  sh sysinfo

Nuts, I should've asked for these info before.

You running 7.2.110.0 or higher.  That is what is required for these AP's.

Yes, we are running 7.3.101.0. Also note we have other 2602 AP's that have registered with this controller and are working properly.

Well... it does seem like something is blocking udp 5246 & or 5247.  I would take a good AP that has joined and put it out on that remote site to test.  If that AP doesn't join, then something is indeed blocking.

Thanks,

Scott - that is my next move. I have an AP here that has already joined and I hope to have it on site later today. Will post any findings / results.

Let us know what you find.

OK - I registered a new 2602 AP with the controller at our central location, then moved it out to the branch site with the problem. The access point will not join the controller from the remote site even though it joined before I took it out. A parsed portion of the cosole log is below:

I have not run any debugs on the controller since taking this AP on site but I would guess the messages are similar to the original posting. Thoughts??

Post the entire bootup process.

So you have H-REAP/FlexConnect enabled on the WAP?

Below is the entire boot process on the AP that joined from our central location, but now won't join at the remote site. Yes, we have H-REAP/FlexConnect enabled on one of our WLANS - although it isn't currently in use.

Thanks for the logs.  Very useful.

So what's this?  The WAP is trying to join a controller (IRC-WLC) with a 7.0.98.0 code.  I think this could be the issue.

Yea, i was following the thread and that stuck out for me as well ..

Was this AP joined to another WLC or did you have another WLC in this controllers mob group ?

Please let me know if you have a answer to solve this issue.

First, create a completely new thread.

and paste the output of these commands:

sh version from AP

sh sysinfo from WLC

Also paste the complete boot-up process from AP console.

Didn't see it, but I'm assuming the AP did get an ip address?

Moving the AP from a location in which it was able to join to another location and then the AP fails to join means that UDP 5246 and or UDP 5247 is being blocked. Check to see if it might be blocked going out or coming back. Since you know it's a good AP.

I put a sniffer inline and can confirm that traffic from the AP in question is reaching the controller on UDP port 5246 but I see nothing on UDP port 5247. At what point would traffic start on UDP 5247? I'm checking ACL's and so far I have found nothing. Our WAN is managed by our ISP and I am having them check any ACLs they may have in place as well.
