WLC not on the network

[huwyhuwy123]

hi there,

Firstly apologies if this is not the correct forum. I wasn't sure where to post this.

I'm trying to setup a WLC2100 for the first time and have configured it as shown in the attachment.

I've then plugged port 1 on the WLC into my 3750 port g1/0/44. The config for this port is

    interface GigabitEthernet1/0/44

      description ## Connection to ROD-WLC1 port 1 - netman ##

      switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

      switchport trunk native vlan 10

      switchport trunk allowed vlan 10

      switchport mode trunk

The problem is I can't ping or connect to the WLC on 10.10.0.200 or 10.10.0.201

Can anyone see what the error might be?

Cheers,

huw

You have your management interface tagged for VLAN 10, however your switchport is expecting native traffic on VLAN 10,  so it cannot interpret the tag.

Management Interface VLAN Identifier (0 = untagged): 10

Either remove the native vlan 10 from switchport (so 1 becomes native)

# no switchport trunk vlan 10 native

- or -

Untag the management interface, using tag id of '0'  (zero = untagged)

>config interface vlan management 0

If you already have WLANs bound to this interface (which i'm thinking you don't, but in case) you will need to disable all WLANS bound to it.  If this is non-production, just issue the following:

> config wlan disable all

> config interface vlan management 0

> config wlan enable all
