    Hello Guys

    I installed a  Mobility controller in stand alone on a virtual machine

    I installed the fallowing licenses on the controller on stand alone

     

    AP,PEF, RFP, and  MC-VA-US

    This is for  a LAB and i got these license for lab purpuses demo licenses.

     

    The thing is that the AP wont go up and its telling me that it has no license... even if i can see that all the license are installed and witht he check mark

    Its telling me its not using any license.

     

    I did the same with a physical controller with a ap pef and a rfp license and worked fine no issue.

     

     

    Now i was wondering  it says MC-VA-US but my ap is RW,  is there any issue with this?? or any ideas what could be the problem?

     

    Cheers

    Carlos

    I think (all most sure;)) this make sence and you have to use the same regulator domain. Dont mix MC-VA-US license with AP-RW access points. Can you install a MC-VA-RW licence?

    Thats really odd beacuse my SE gave me those licenses....

    Any from aruba can confirm if MC-VA-US vm controller does not work with RW aps ?

     

    Cheers

    Iam sure your SE pick the wrong one ;) ...Or if your are live in US you have the wrong AP.
