Hello!
I have a Cisco 2504 WLC with 5 APs and 3 SSID. I have a problem with some users, the WLC disconnects them constantly and when I see my logs I obtain the next error:
Thu Feb 23 14:31:06 2017 WPA MIC Error counter measure activated on Radio with MAC 00:3a:98:7c:8d:70 and Slot ID 0. Station MAC Address is 74:df:bf:b0:5f:dc and WLAN ID is 3.
and in the users logs I see this kind of logs:
10:29:03, Thu, Feb 23, 17 Successfully joined network with BSSID 00:3a:98:77:c6:12
10:59:14, Thu, Feb 23, 17 Received Deauth from 00:3a:98:77:c6:12 with Reason 1

Why is this happen? Take into account that the behavior ONLY occur in ONE of the 3 SSIDs, I actually have 4 users and 3 of them have the problem. Thank you for any support you can give me.

Hi,
you are using wpa2 with TKIP and its not correct at all.
you need to use either:
WPA+TKIP
or
WPA2+AES
so please change it on your wlan and try again.
