How to send radio measurement requests from Cisco5508 WLC(1252-lwap-APs) to the associated ccxv4 client?

Hi,

i am testing ccxv4 client by following the document of "Cisco Compatible Extensions for WLAN Devices Test Plan for Versions 1-4"

i need to test the following scenarios:-

1) beacon report -> beacon table scan, passive scan

2) frame report -> same, different channel

3) multiple radio measurement requests

WLC is Cisco 5508

lwap = 1252 AP

For this, i tried the following the procedure step by step and i can able to witness that RM request was not enabled

for particular access-point. And i am terribly stuck here and not knowing how to proceed these.

Cisco_AP = AP0026.cbd2.d560

client_mac = 00:06:c6:45:3b:f8

kindly see each and every cli procedure and update me about what i am missing.

Hey mate - I am having the same issue. Did you find the cause/resolution for this?

Hi:

For RM requests (e.g. Beacon Report Request), often it needs to be initiated by another station on the network.  To get the WLC to issue a Beacon Report Request, you can try some debug commands.

What do you see after issuing the following CLI commands (wait 5-10 secs after last command):

test ccx rm unicast <STA MAC in xxxx.xxxx.xxxx format> beacon disable

test ccx rm unicast <STA MAC in xxxx.xxxx.xxxx format> send 5 1

debug disable-all

debug ccxrm all enable

test ccx rm unicast <STA MAC in xxxx.xxxx.xxxx format> beacon enable

Regards,

Dennis
