Office extend and rlan

[Karl Wilson]

Hi Guys,

I have recentley configured office extend while using 9130's and that all went well via 9800 wlcs. I have tried to configure a 1815T to try and enable rlan. I have went through this guide and i can get the green rlan tick on the interfaces Configure OEAP and RLAN on Catalyst 9800 WLC - Cisco

The issue i seem to be having is when i enable the rlan on the interface i can never get link light on the interface. it's like it's disabling it on me. Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this or if i have done something wrong?

                                Do you have for instance screenshots or examples , to clarify this issue ?

I will be working from home on this in a few days to get screenshots but with rlan enabled i never get a link light or the interface counters going up on the interfaces page. If i do it on a port with it disabled i get the link lights and counters straight away.

  - @Karl Wilson    Ok as far as basics or 'did I do something wrong' is concerned ; a mandatory task to start with
                            when using 9800 controller(s) is validating the configuration with using the CLI command
                            show tech wireless and feed the output from that into Wireless Config Analyzer
                            Use the full command in green do not use   show tech-support for this procedure

@Karl Wilson try creating a whole new RLAN, not using what you already had per say.  I have a few 1850T and 1850W that are working fine. Just make sure that the ap is connected to a trunk port and the vlan you are using for the RLAN is trunked all the way to your distro/core.
