WLC 2500 - Newly configured Guest Wifi: Client is getting IPV6 instead of IPV4 from DHCP pool

Hi Guys,

 

The client is getting IPV6 IP Address instead of IPV4 IP Address from the DHCP pool. Please see image below for reference.

Is there a workaround on this issue. 

 

Thank you.

HI,

 

If you are not using IPv6 then you can disable on WLC:

 

Step 1 : Choose Controller > General.

Step 2 : From the Global IPv6 Config drop-down list, choose Disabled.

Step 3 : Click Apply.

Step 4 : Click Save Configuration.

 

Also make sure that you put the right DHCP server under dynamic interface which is assigned to Guest wlan.

Still same issues. Any more areas where I can look into?

 

Isolate:

IPV6 is disabled 

DHCP server under dynamic interface - Configured correctly.

FE80 is a link local address, if IPv6 is disabled on the wireless side - check client side that IPv6 is also disabled.
Also confirm that DHCP is working for that SSID for other devices - as i have seen this if the client cant get an IPv4 before.

 

If AP is in flexconnect check VLAN mapping is correct as this will do it as well

Look at "Auth" and it says "No".
This means that the VLAN is now allowed through the Trunk.

Hi Leo,

 

Good catch! Please find below existing config and let me know if I can change and configure a trunk on the following interfaces.

 

*vlan 50 - management 

*vlan 77 - new guest wifi

 

Please advise if this is correct. Trunk sample config:

!
interface TenGigabitEthernet1/0/41
description **WAP**
switchport trunk allowed 50, 77
switchport mode trunk
!

 

!!!!!!! existing config !!!!!!! 

!
interface TenGigabitEthernet1/0/41
description **WAP**
switchport access vlan 50
switchport mode access
spanning-tree portfast
spanning-tree guard root
!
interface TenGigabitEthernet1/0/42
description **WAP**
switchport access vlan 50
switchport mode access
spanning-tree portfast
spanning-tree guard root
!

!
interface TenGigabitEthernet2/0/41
description **WAP**
switchport access vlan 50
switchport mode access

!
interface TenGigabitEthernet2/0/42

interface Port-channel20
description WLC
switchport mode trunk

interface TenGigabitEthernet1/0/39

Thanks 

 

Post the complete output to the command "sh interface Ten 2/0/39 trunk".
Is VLAN 77 found in the VLAN database?

What ports?

Yes DHCP server IP configured correctly.

Check the DHCP pool. 

Check the DHCP scope.

Check the dynamic interface and make sure it is pointing to the correct DHCP server.
