HP Comware based switches and Identifi Wireless issue

[Steve_Krasinski]

I am looking for a little help getting our Identifi Wireless working with HP Comware based switches. We currently have older Hp Procurve switches that work just fine but the newer HP switches are running Comware. I have provisied the port just as I would on the Procurve. We leave the Management vlan untagged and the user vlans tagged.

We have it as such now on the Procurve.

vlan 12 mgmt untagged
vlan 102 staff tagged
vlan 104 apple tagged
vlan 108 android tagged
vlan 112 laptop tagged
vlan 116 gaming tagged

I have all the vlans setup exactly the same on the Comware switches.
I have tried using both Hybrid and Trunk ports and neither will allow the access point to communicate with the wireless controller.
Does anyone have any ideas on what I could do.

Ron,

Done. Thanks! Got that confused with another issue 🙂

Hi Jason,

could you please edit the symptoms to "can't ping" 🙂

Thanks,
Ron

Ron,

Thank you for sharing your knowledge! That's a great example what The Hub was intended for when it was started.

I have created a knowledge article to document this particular situation and resolution - https://gtacknowledge.extremenetworks.com/articles/Solution/Access-Points-not-communicating-with-Ide...

Let us know if that looks accurate or needs further editing, etc.

Thanks again,
Jason (and the GTAC)

Just as a reference if someone is looking for an example in the future - I assume the config looks now like this ....

interface Ethernet1/0/48
port link-type trunk
port trunk pvid vlan 12
port trunk permit vlan 12,102,104,108,112,1161
