Hi,
Scenario : We are deployed the WLC in Corparate Office and Access Points are placed in Branch Office with FlexConnect Local Switching mode.
In this case, I am not able to Ping the Wireless clients eachother . Peer to Peer Block Option also Disabled.
Some time Wireless clients Ping eachother & some times not. Both Wireless clients are associated with Same AP & Same WLAN SSID.
Please help me urgent ..
Devices :
1)WLC 2500 series , Software 7.2
2)Cisco 1400 series APs
3)CISCO ACS server for AAA authentication

Hi Shanmugam,
Please apply following steps to configure P2P setting for WLAN:
Step 1 Choose WLANs to open the WLANs page.
Step 2 Click the ID number of the WLAN for which you want to configure peer-to-peer blocking.
Step 3 Choose the Advanced tab to open the WLANs > Edit (Advanced) page.
Step 4 Choose one of the following options from the P2P Blocking drop-down list:
• Disabled — Disables peer-to-peer blocking and bridges traffic locally within the controller whenever possible. This is the default value.
NOTE: Traffic is never bridged across VLANs in the controller.
• Drop—Causes the controller to discard the packets.
• Forward - Upstream — causes the packets to be forwarded on the upstream VLAN. The device above the controller decides what action to take regarding the packets.
NOTE: To enable peer-to-peer blocking on a WLAN configured for FlexConnect local switching, select Drop from the P2P Blocking drop-down list and select the FlexConnect Local Switching check box.
Step 5 Click Apply to commit your changes.
Step 6 Click Save Configuration to save your changes.
Thanks,

Hi Prashant Ji,
Thanks for your reply.
The P2P setting for WLAN is already disabled only..
WLAN L2 Security settings option WPA gtk-randomize option was enabled.This option kills the broadcast and multicasts in that WLAN. So we disabled that option , its working fine now.
Below options also changed.
