Enable Export anchor, SSID stops broadcasting

richyvrlimited

Level 3

I'm enabling export anchor on a 9800 for a coproprate network. The policy currently is applied to a number of SSID, so I've cloned the policy and enabled the 'Export Anchor' config.

The Foriegn anchor is an AireOS 5520, I've created an idently named SSID with the pofile name the same as the policy name on the 9800.

When I apply this policy to the SSID on the 9800, it stops broadcasting the SSID entirely. I can't see anything in the logs as to why this would occur, have I missed some configuration somewhere?

FWIW we have SSID working fine between the 9800 and 5520 with the 9800 as the foriegn anchor, but this is the 1st SSID in the other direction.

 

Cheers

Well spotted Kris - I think this has been mentioned before.

So @richyvrlimited you can use the same SSID for local APs but you must use a different policy profile for that WLAN.
