Important Notes

Apple iBook

Some Apple operating systems require shared key authentication for WEP. Other releases of the operating system do not work with shared key WEP unless the client saves the key in its key ring. How you should configure your controller is based on the client mix you expect to use. Cisco recommends testing these configurations before deployment.

Features Not Supported on 2000 Series Controllers

External web authentication web server list

Layer 2 LWAPP

Spanning tree

Port mirroring

Cranite

Fortress

AppleTalk

QoS per-user bandwidth contracts

IPv6 pass-through

Some Clients See Only 64 Access Point MAC Addresses (BSSIDs) at a Time

In a crowded RF environment, clients may not be able to detect the desired SSID because of internal table limitations. Sometimes disabling and then enabling the client interface forces a rescan. Your RF environment needs to be controlled. Cisco UWN rogue access point detection and containment can help you to enforce RF policies in your buildings and campuses.

Pinging from Any Network Device to a Dynamic Interface IP Address Is Not Supported

Clients on the WLAN associated with the interface pass traffic normally.
