Hi All,
please help and suggest. i have create a test lab before execute live envirment. iam faceing issue client system disconnect from internet within 1-2 min. below find log from AP & wlc. can you suggest what was the reason. as i checked log from wlc9800-cl showing AP join & disjoin.
Log file attached below in attachement.

I am not much familiar about catalysts C9800-CL

Sounds buggy, what’s the version you are on ?
08-18-2022 08:22 AM
Wlc running version 17.3.5.42

do a test, configure the controller IP manually, instead of DNS based discovery and test again
ap name <AP_NAME> controller primary <WLC name> <Controller IP address>

I tried to configure the controller IP manually in AP . but same issue facing, Access point auto join and disjoin automatically & client received Request time out after 40-50 successfully reply.

I think you need to be more specific on how you are testing. You are moving from ME to a 9800, so the ap would drop all client while upgrading and converting the system from ME to CAPWAP. The ME guide states that a ME ap when powered up or rebooted will check the local subnet or any dhcp/dns discovery you have and will join a controller if one is found. If not, the ap will transition back to ME.
I would expect clients to be impacted while migrating AP’s to the 9800 and keep in mind that you would need to migrate all the AP’s at that location because you would not have mobility between the ME and the 9800.

AP convert successfully ME to Capwap & AP also join wirless controller 9800-CL.but ap not stable. Its continue join &disjoin process 1-2 min later.client are also access SSID and internet. But when AP disjoin client also lost connectivity internet and gateway also not reachable. Lost connection at any time after an interval. As I checked log found DTLS session shutdown & AP join and disjoin logs in controller side. But I don't know why its session shutdown.

1. Is there still a ME controller present? If so that is not supported at the same time as WLC.
2. Look at possible causes for the disconnect, for example packet loss, link latency, MTU etc. As per https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5415.txt
Run to DTLS Teardown (p): This state transition occurs when an error has occurred in the DTLS stack, causing the DTLS session to be torn down. WTP: The WTP enters this state when it receives one of the following DTLS notifications: DTLSAborted, DTLSReassemblyFailure, or DTLSPeerDisconnect (see Section 2.3.2.2). The WTP MAY tear down the DTLS session if it receives frequent DTLSDecapFailure notifications. The WTP also transitions to this state if the underlying reliable transport's RetransmitCount counter has reached the MaxRetransmit variable (see Section 4.7). The WTP starts the DTLSSessionDelete timer (see Section 4.7.6). AC: The AC enters this state when it receives one of the following DTLS notifications: DTLSAborted, DTLSReassemblyFailure, or DTLSPeerDisconnect (see Section 2.3.2.2). The AC MAY tear down the DTLS session if it receives frequent DTLSDecapFailure notifications. The AC transitions to this state if the underlying reliable transport's RetransmitCount counter has reached the MaxRetransmit variable (see Section 4.7). This state transition also occurs when the AC's EchoInterval timer (see Section 4.7.7) expires. The AC starts the DTLSSessionDelete timer (see Section 4.7.6).
You should also try a factory default reset on the AP - sometimes that can clear odd problems.

There is no ME controller present, only 9800-Cl WLC & one AP connect this WLC . but issue is why AP join & disjoin continuously within 2-3 minutes & this happening continue i checked almost 6 hours still AP join & disjoin.
08-21-2022 01:36 AM
So is the 9800-CL present locally on the same vlan/subnet?
If so that rules out link latency and hopefully MTU. But you should still check switch ports and VM ports for errors or duplex mismatch for example.
And you should still try factory default reset on the AP.
Next do a packet capture and see what's happening at packet level between the WLC and AP.

I think you need to be greater precise on how you're trying out. You are transferring from ME to a 9800, so the ap could drop all client whilst upgrading and converting the system from ME to CAPWAP. The ME manual states that a ME ap whilst powered up or rebooted will check the local subnet or any dhcp/dns discovery you have and could be part of a controller if one is located. If no longer, the ap will transition lower back to ME.

AP already converted ME to CAPWAP, i just facing issue AP join & disjoin with 9800 WLC & client disconnected internet when AP join & disjoin process happening .

what's the important of BLE radio. just capture AP debuging log & found BLE radion Powering down.
