    Hello,

     

    I need help.

     

    I am planning a network using 7008, 274.
    Please look at my picture.

     

    1. In 7008 i create a mesh cluster.

    2. Configuration-Access point

    I choose a point in the list. Pointing as mesh portal. It is displayed in MashAPs.
    I choose another point. Pointing as mesh point. The point disappears. The ping does not go to the registered static address.

    In the help section of the Secure Corporate Mesh, I cannot exactly understand the sequence of actions.

    Can you write me step by step actions in order to implement the network shown in the picture.

     

    What should I do next. How to find mesh point?

     

    Thank you.

    The mesh point needs to build its connection to the controller over the wireless link. It is currently able to communicate with the mesh portal? What antennas are being used with the AP-274s?

    mesh portal - ANTENNA KIT ANT-3X3-5712 point- to-multipoint

    mesh point - ANTENNA KIT ANT-2X2-5314 point-to-point

     

    Where I see communication with the mesh portal?

    Will it be a notification?

    The AP274 will get the same ip address that it had before when it connected to the controller on the wired network.  On the controller, type "show ap database" to see what ip addres the AP-274 had before and try to do a constant ping to it while booting it.  That is the earliest way to see if the mesh point has come up.

    At the time of setting the mesh point, I set the static address 192.168.0.24/24.
    I carry out a constant ping. There is no point in the wired network.

    As I understand it, when I assign a AP as a mesh point, it will only connect via a wireless network and it will have an address of 192.168.0.24/24.
    In the wired network, I can’t see the point because the port AP in the mesh cluster is configured as a bridge.

    I need to figure out why the mesh portal does not see the mesh point.

     

    Do I understand everything correctly?

    Did you configure the mesh profiles before provisioning the mesh point? 

    Did you configure a mesh portal?

    What ip address did the mesh point have before you set the static ip address?  You should not set a static ip address, because it is error prone, and you have to set other parameters like serverip/masterip to make sure the mesh point registers with the controller.

    Yes, I configured everything.

    If I use 2x2 antenna but I do not use a terminator, this will work or not.

    I think I have a problem with 2x2 antenna and AP 274

    Did you already provision the antenna gains,? If not the radio will not operate.

    Ok,

     

    Please see my pictures.

     

    For the test, I use:
    AP 274
    ANT-3X3-5712
    ANT-2X2-5314
    Aruba os 8.3
    7008 controller

     

    All settings for the cluster mesh are configured by default.
    pic 4, AP wo-33 need to make a mesh point.
    pic 14 - when I click apply, the point disappears.

    I do not understand where to look.

     

    I configured the WLAN with AP 207, everything works fine.


    Mesh cluster does not work. I have deadlines for the project, but I can't configure the mesh cluster.

     

    Is it possible that you connect to me remotely and help me with the configuration?

    Your configuration does not look wrong, but those antennas are very close.  Please put them across the room from each other. 

     

    Did you receive a console cable with th AP-274 (usb cable)?  You would need to download the driver for it and install it on your computer and use putty to connect to the AP-274.  You will then be able to see if there are any console messages coming from the AP-274.

    Set points at a distance of 3 meters.

    Connect the console mesh point. I understand there is an error, but where?

    The console asks for a password, where can I get it?

     What should I do next?

    I connect the power point through the PoE port on the controller.
    Using 5314 and 5712 antennas, will I give everything correctly or do I need to connect points to the AC power interface or PoE midspan injector 48VDC?

     

    I would like to exclude the option of not properly connecting the power for points with 5314 and 5712 antennas.
