Do you have peer to peer blocking enabled on the WLAN ?

Hi George,

thanks for your recommendation.

I'll try the option and then I'll tell you the results

 On the controller for a default perspective there isnt anything that should block you from scanning other clients. However if peer to peer blocking is enabled, or if you have some type of ACL that could be an issue for scanning clients over wireless

Peer-to-peer blocking is configured on a per-WLAN basis and prevents clients on the wireless network from communicating with one another. By default, peer-to-peer blocking is disabled for new WLANs.

Hi mohanak,

thanks for your very clear explanation.
