Hey Community,
We are experiencing some weird intermittent outages with our RAP deployment, we have been consistently having about 25 (same RAPs every time) drop connectivity for about 30 seconds, then come back up. The RAP tunnel seems to stay up, but the client machine cannot be pinged. We ran packet capture and see the pings reaching the client, but nothing being returned.
This seemingly went away on it's own over the course of a week.
Today, out of the blue, all of our RAPs dropped and lost connectivity (200 or so) at the same time. We rebooted our RAP controller, and when everything came back up, we had multiple users in the user-table showing the same AP Name. These same users were stuck in the logon role and we were not seeing their authetications and we could not ping users who appeared to be authenticated. After we disabled the Eth1 and Eth2 ports on the RAP that showed up for multiple users, we were able to ping and most users were able to authenticate successfully.
I am leaning toward some type of loop introduced, but not sure if this issue is the same or different than the original one. We do not have spanning-tree enabled for RAP ports at this time. We are planning to disable Eth2 for all RAPs and just leave Eth0 (uplink) and Eth1 for PCs.
Any other experience with same AP name for multiple users or AP wired port loops that sounds like this? Trying to figure out what's going on, but struggling.
We do have a TAC Case opened and escalated, but I need more eyes on this.
Thanks!
