AIR-CAP2702I-E-K9 40 AP are online in production running on an old AIR-CT5508-K9 we want to migrate them to an new controller Cisco Catalyst 9800-L Wireless Controller 17.9.5 but we cant see how they get there info of the old controller so we can tip them over.
see below for reboot of one of the APs

Looks like only the DNS option is used. I don't see a DHCP Option 43 being offered in the logs. And yet, the AP instead sends the join request to 192.168.0.63. That must be configured in the AP's HA settings and can be changed with the CLI command RoadRunner4K provided or in the GUI > Wireless > Choose an AP > High Availability tab. Move the current controller to secondary, and enter the IP and hostname of the new controller in primary. No need to reboot; the AP will move to the new primary (9800) within a minute or so, then download new code and reboot (for a 2702, this may take a while, 20 minutes or more, especially if connecting to the WLC over a WAN link).

DHCP Option 43
08-27-2024 04:54 AM
If you just need to the old APs to move to new WLC then you can from gui of the old use this command
config ap primary-base NEW WLC NAME AP NAME NEW WLC MGMT IP
If things are ready on the new one, try with one AP ( test ap first)
08-27-2024 10:40 PM
You mean CLI not GUI @RoadRunner4k ?
08-27-2024 05:19 AM - edited 08-27-2024 05:43 AM
- Standard methodology to let APs find a controller is to use DHCP (for ip address provisioning) together with DHCP option 43 to point to the intended controller to use (the controller ip address =Wireless Management Interface address= that is)
Appendix : - Have an overall checkup of the new Catalyst 9800-L controller's configuration with the CLI command
show tech wireless and feed the output from that into Wireless Config Analyzer
use the full command as denoted in green , do not use a simple show tech as input for this procedure
Consider this mandatory for optimal use for the new 9800-L controller ,

Hi AP on the old controller are with name and ip configured in High Availability low, how to trigger the move. We try reboot AP. But not trigger High Availability low move... Please let me know how to continue
08-30-2024 03:45 AM
1. Have you landed any APs on the 9800 to confirm that it is working?
2. Have you check the 9800 config using Config Analyzer (link below)?
3. Your old APs probably have expired certificates. Have you configured the 9800 as per Field Notice: FN63942 APs and WLCs Fail to Create CAPWAP Connections Due to Certificate Expiration to ensure that it allows the APs with expired certificates?
4. Save the complete console log of the AP after you reboot to a text file (.txt) and attach here for us to review. Also check the 9800 log (show log) for anything it logs if/when the AP tries to join. Also check the 9800 join stats (show wireless stats ap join summary) and check the Last Disconnect Reason. Also show wireless stats ap history mac-address <ap-ethernet-MAC>
