Walking down the hall one day I noticed an AP that was blinking red, green, and amber. This indicates it cant find the controller. So I went ahead and did the following:
- Verified no issue with ethernet cable and port config, can ping controller from switch without issue
- Connected to a known working switchport that is used for another AP and issue remains
- Consoled into AP and reviewed messages and noticed the following: It does pull an IP address and recognize the controller however exactly 10 seconds later it states "Not sending discovery request AP does not have an IP." and loses its IP address.
- Tried to statically assign an IP but these are operating in lightweight mode which means global config mode is not recognized.
- Reviewed traps on controller and found no info related to this AP
- Confirmed its not pulling a duplicate IP via DHCP scope/ leases
AP is currently running C1140-RCVK9W8-M version 12.4 release
All APs are configured to pull their IP via DHCP.
Thoughts?
