RAP 303HR disconnecting

    Moving RAPS to an 8.6 infrastructure (from old 6.5 master controller).  RAP joins the controller but then disconnects pretty fast.  The only thing I can see is that the "vrrp-vlan" ip address for the cluster members is not correct.  Would that cause RAP to drop?  If not, why does it drop?

    Is it a cluster?

    Yes, the 2 controllers are in a cluster.

    All controllers in the cluster would need a public ip address.
    You would need to configure the rap-public-ip address for each controller in the cluster profile
    Do not define an LMS or backup LMS-IP in the ap-group for the Remote AP.

    Ok, I did that.  I see the RAP now, but for some reason, its broadcasting the corporate SSID as an unsecure network when it should be secured.

    I'll have to troubleshoot that.

    Did you try to connect to it?

    Yes, I fixed that issue. I had to change it from "open system" to WPA2-AES.  So that's good.  But when I type in my AD account after connecting, it fails.  

    I'll have to troubleshoot.  I'm getting closer.  Thank you!

    You can just move it to an ap-group of an already working AP, for now, just to test...  After you do that, you can just add the Virtual AP used for 802.1x to your remote AP ap-group.

    I used the regular Employee VAP that I use for the campus AP Group and it worked.  So the issue is with the other VAP I was using?
