Cisco Switch not detecting Access Point

BGH
Level 1
Level 1

 I have a Ruckus AP model H320 (Mac: 7047.7726.67b0) connected directly to my Cisco Catalyst 2960 > Port Gi0/5

But due to some reason the switch does not detect the Access point.

On Port Gi0/3 we have a different AP connected and this AP is detected and working

We tried resetting the AP mutliple

Changed the eth cable

Restarted the port Gi0/5

We also tried different port Gi0/9

But same issue

Here below is the configuration from Port Gi0/3 where a different AP works fine

And also the configuration from Port Gi0/5 and Gi0/9

We are pretty much sure that the AP does not have any issue because this is a new AP sent from the vendor and we also tried some spare APs but the result is same.

Can someone check the configuration and advise please.

I've seen this hundreds of times (different PD) -- The port is "pulling power" but there is no MAC address.

The AP has crashed.

So you confirm that the issue is with the AP.

No, YOU have to confirm the issue with the AP.

@BGH don't you need to set native VLAN on the switch port for the Ruckus management VLAN?

Have you enabled LLDP on the switch: globally "lldp run" and on the switch port which is usually on by default?

This is a working switch port config (C1000-24P-4G-L running 15.2(7)E7) with a Ruckus H350 AP:
interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1
 description <your description>
 switchport trunk native vlan XXX
 switchport mode trunk
 no cdp enable
 spanning-tree portfast edge trunk
 spanning-tree bpdufilter enable
 spanning-tree bpduguard disable
end

GigabitEthernet0/9 is down, line protocol is down (notconnect) <<- this L1 issue 
the line is down and protocol is also down
as Mr. Leo mention this issue of AP crashed not config 
let wait his reply

@MHM Cisco World the question was about the Ruckus AP connected to Gi0/5:

Gi0/5 RAP_524 connected trunk a-full a-1000 10/100/1000BaseTX

From his post

We tried resetting the AP mutliple

Changed the eth cable

Restarted the port Gi0/5

We also tried different port Gi0/9

But same issue

Thanks
