ExtremeWireless (WiNG)

Hi
over the last couple of day the RFS7K has dropped off the network and stops all MU form connecting. The WIF is still visable ( Ap's are 7131 & 7532 ) but no connection can be made.
I have looked on the Primary unit and there was some crash files about 6 in total but dating from earlier in the this month.

But its all a bit meaningless to me:

Return success for start_session

Hello Phil,

It seems as you said, a soft lockup, caused by the dataplane process. Could you please give us a better view of how are those APs deployed? Different domains and level 2 MiNT links? Can you please share the output of the following commands on the panicking device?

#show mint links
#service show top
#show cluster members detail

How often is that panic happening?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Phil,

Is the device 70.38.0A.F9 acting as well as cluster master? You can check it with the following command:

#show cluster members

Hi
No, 70:38:0A:F0 is in standby

Hi again Phil,

Sorry for the confusion. What I meant is, if the controller with MiNT ID 70:38:0A:F0 has the master status on the cluster showing up as true. Can you please share the output of the following command?

#show cluster members

rfs7000-Backup 70.38.0A.F9 00-15-70-38-0A-F9 False standby 00:01:01 ago

I don't think your crashes are related to your problems and besides the panic which was seen during taking of packet capture most porbably - the rest are not crashes or you are just not putting crash locations. And the logs above are from 6521 - not the Aps you have problems with.
You need to have GTAC look at your config and check if config is correct.

Hi
I did no packet capture, the painc wa in the crash file location on the RFS,
What are these messages that are repeated ?

This is just stack fuction call. Is this panic hapenning constantly - or you just have one time panic occurance? You can look at the timestamp and see how long ago panic occured. Again - you said MUs are not connecting and unless your controller is constantly rebooting - that panic is not what's causing you a problem. Probably something else in the config.
