Wireless Access

Hi all,  new controllers running a mixture of AP65's 70's 105's all good.   Trying to provision unused, out of box 65's without success, any ideas ??  I dont have a SOE adapter so cant see the boot process, new 105's no problem....

 

Cheers

What version of ArubaOS? We're those access points used before?

Colin, believe it or not they are new/unused,  version 6.3, have maybe a couple of hundred 65's that were on old controller, just the new ones I cant see...  

If the AP65s were not used, they need to first be connected to a controller on the latest 5.x, before being connected to 6.x. New Aruba 65s had a limit on the size of the image they could download and the newest 5.x corrects this.

Colin, your a star, luckily had the old controller to hook them upto, many thanks.

Hi Colin, was all looking good as they came up on old controller, connected to new and they still seem to be recycling ?  any ideas ??

With the 65 on the 5.x controller, you may need to do an apflash all backup-partition.

 

Take a look at the command in the CLI guide.

Try the solution above.

 

Thanks for all the help, turns out the 65's would not get a LAN provided DHCP address ??  had to manually assign using an old controller, connect to new controller, let 65's flash 6.3 code then change back to DHCP and all good.

 

Very bizzare.
