AP-7532 authentication trouble ?

john30 — Tue, 14 Mar 2023 10:28:52 GMT

Hello,

I have an issue to connect to the SSID I created. I can see it but can't connect.
AP is used in a domestic environment at the moment.

Below is the config that I have set up, if someone can enlighten me ?

Many thanks !

Hello John,

By "Can't connect" do you mean:

1 - Can't see the SSID?

2 - Can see the SSID but can't connect using your credentials?

3 - Connect to the SSID but don't pull a DHCP IP address?

4 - Pull a DHCP IP address but can't get to the Internet?

etc.

From what I can see the default gateway you configured is the network IP address so you should look at that first, then reduce the radio power to 10db (only for testing). You may also want to add the best practices firewall policy: https://extremeportal.force.com/ExtrArticleDetail?an=000078342

Is there a reason the ge 1 port is trunked and native vlan tagged? Please change ge 1 to access port and make sure that the native VLAN is untagged and test.

What is the full AP model?

Upgrade the firmware at the very least to the latest 5.9 version.

BR,

Are you maybe trying to use the AP7532 as your Internet router? (Using both Ethernet ports?) Guessing not, but based on some configs, seems like maybe....

The actual WLAN settings look fine. If you are not able to associate to the WLAN, then you are likely just entering the wrong passphrase....or your wireless adapter (or whatever you are using to try to connect) has a driver problem. I'm guessing that actually associating to the WLAN though is not the real problem (You are associating but just can't reach the Internet).

First, the default gateway value is not correct. If you have another device that is providing your Internet connection, that device's IP address needs to be configured here. Since you seem to be using a 192.168.0.0 network, that device (default gateway) usually has the address of 192.168.0.1/24 (which is why I'm wondering if you are maybe attempting to make the AP7532 the Internet connected router). If whatever device you are using that has the actual Internet connection DOES use the 192.168.0.1 address though, then you also need to also change the static IP address of the AP7532 to something else...otherwise, IP conflict and things break.

Agree that your configuration of using a trunked interface with tagged native vlan is not likely not what you intended (Is the AP7532 connected to a VLAN capable switch?). If you're not sure, then pretty certain you don't need these settings. To remove those configs:

#self

#remove-override interface ge 1

#remove-override ip default-gateway

#commit write mem

You then still likely need to correctly define what your ip default-gateway IP is and also enter a non-conflicting IP address for the AP7532.

Hello Christoph,

Many thanks for your help. I did apply all and it works perfectly now.

Have a good day
John
