Sites FAQs and Troubleshooting

Chapter 1 FAQs and Troubleshooting

Symptom My clients are not being authenticated through WDS.

Possible Cause You have not created a server group on the WDS for client authentication.

Recommended Action To create a server group on the WDS for client authentication, you can use the AP CLI, the AP web interface, or the WLSE configuration templates for an AP-WDS, or the WLSM CLI for a WLSM-WDS. For more information, see the device setup information in the online help or the User Guide for the CiscoWorks Wireless LAN Solution Engine, 2.13.

Symptom The Verify RM Capability tool reports the following error: WLSE-WDS Authentication Test—Failed. FreeRadius 1.5 is being used for authentication.

Possible Cause If the command show wlccp wnm status on the WDS does not show SECURITY KEYS SETUP, then the issue is probably a known problem with FreeRADIUS. FreeRADIUS requires a patch to be fully compliant with Cisco LEAP.

Recommended Action You can download this patch from:

Symptom Self Healing is taking a very long time to complete.

Possible Cause Self-Healing compensation is on a per-building basis. If you have too many APs per building, for example, 200 APs, Self Healing computation can take a long time and, in extreme cases cases, the WLSE might run out of memory. It is recommended that you do not have more than 200 APs in one building.

Recommended Action If your building has more than 200 APs, create multiple logical buildings so that no one building has more than 200 APs.
