    I am having a problem adding an AP to a 3600 controller running 6.1.3.0 software.

     

    I connected a new AP to the network and it shows up on the controller with a IL flags (Inactive and unlicensed)

     

    There are 24 unused licenses on the controller. (See screenshots)

     

    I've tried a couple different new AP's but they all show up the same way.

     

    Control plane security is off.

     

    I've rebooted the controller as well.... no luck.

     

    Any ideas????

    Can't tell from your limited screen shot if you have other feature licenses on the same controller.


    For instance, do you have PEF/PEFNG and/or WIP/RFP licenses as well ?

     

    If you do, are they quantity = 128 or quantity = 152 ?

    A 3600 will only support 128 Campus APs.  Aruba allows more AP licenses because a 3600 can support up to 512 remote APs (RAPs).

     

    If these are all in Campus AP (CAP) mode, you have hit the limit of the 3600.

    Friday is good :)

    WIth the full snapshot of the licensing output it can been seen that you have all APs in campus mode.

     

    Notice the 'number of remote APs available: 0' output...   zero is zero ;)
