Release Notes for Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers and Lightweight Access Points for Release 4.2.176.0
OL-31336-01
Important Notes
Exclusion List (Blacklist) Client Feature
If a client is not able to connect to an access point, and the security policy for the WLAN and client are
correct, the client has probably been disabled. In the controller GUI, you can view the client’s status on
the Monitor > Summary page under Client Summary. If the client is disabled, click Remove to clear the
disabled state for that client. The client automatically comes back and, if necessary, reattempts
authentication.
Automatic disabling happens as a result of too many failed authentications. Clients disabled due to failed
authorization do not appear on the permanent disable display. This display is only for those MACs that
are set as permanently disabled by the administrator.
RADIUS Servers and the Management VLAN
If a RADIUS server is on a directly connected subnet (with respect to the controller), then that subnet
must be the management VLAN subnet.
Cisco 1000 Series Access Points and WMM
Cisco 1000 series access points in REAP mode do not support the Wi-Fi Multi-Media (WMM) protocol.
Cisco Aironet 1030 Remote Edge Lightweight Access Points and WPA2-PSK
Cisco Aironet 1030 Remote Edge Lightweight Access Points do not support WPA2-PSK in REAP
standalone mode.
Lightweight Access Point Connection Limitations
Cisco Aironet lightweight access points do not connect to the 4400 series controller if the date and time
are not set properly. Set the current date and time on the controller before allowing the access points to
connect to it.
RADIUS Servers
This product has been tested with CiscoSecure ACS 3.2 and later and works with any RFC-compliant
RADIUS server.
Management Usernames and Local Netuser Names
Management usernames and local netuser names must be unique because they are stored in the same
database. That is, you cannot assign the same name to a management user and a local netuser.
