equipment:
2x 7210 master controllers
2x 7210 local controllers
aruba 225 AP's
background:
I upgraded all controllers from 6.3.x.x-fips to 6.5.0.3-fips.
After the upgrade i was unable to access the primary local controller from my wireless mangement network. However, I can access both masters and my standby controller.
What i know:
-I can not ping/web/ssh to the primary local controller, but i can ping/web/ssh all other controllers.
-All AP's are up and operational on the primary local controller.
-any wired device can access all controllers
-doesnt matter what VLAN or SSID/VAP profile i connect to, same result.
-User role is authenticated
-My controller setup is pretty basic, you can safely assume most settings are default
-i have not added any ACL's
-statefull firewall settings are all default, or disabled
I know managing a wireless network wirelessly is a pretty bad idea... but i use it alot for monitoring on my tablet when im out and about away from my desk.
what im wondering is if in the new OS i upgraded to, for security reasons it blocks someone from managing that device when they are connected through that controller. which would explain why i can reach the other local contoller my ap is not connected to, and the masters, but not the primary my AP's are associated with.
Either way, whether its a security feature or a bad setting somewhere, I would love to be able to manage that controller from the WLAN again.
Thanks for your help.
