Re: Losing access to network

I would send you our config, but we have a fairly complex setup with 12 VSCs (some with 802.1X, some with WPA2) and as many VLANs to match.

I have a current case open with TAC, but I have been following this thread closely due to the similarity to the issues we are having.

 

My question a few minutes ago is because you said "this issue fixed 5.5.3 software". but when I review the release notes, I saw nothing conclusive regarding the issue that started this thread. Two "Fixes" that look like they might be related are:


43253 When a large number of wireless clients are roaming between APs or disconnecting/
reconnecting (for example, in a busy public environment) the maximum number of
supported wireless clients slowly decreases because internal management cannot keep
up with the changes.

 

43478 Egress VLANs in a VSC binding are not synchronized properly on all managed APs.

 

Although I remain hopeful this will be resolved, I think that saying 5.5.3 is the resolution is still a bit premature.

 

I will post what HP support finds with our case when resolved, so that others may try it in their network to see if it works in their situation.

 

Kind Regards,

Bob

Re: Losing access to network

Hello,

 

Stil have the same problem with version 5.5.3.0. Error while removing vlan id:10 (radius) errors in the log. We use Radius on a Windows 2003 SP1 server, do other people with the same problems use Radius on a Windows 2003 server ?

Re: Losing access to network

We get the same kind of errors with users unable to connect and getting 169 block addresses.  This is with MSM760 teamed controllers and MSM422AP.  We have had so many issues getting feature to work and so many mysterious log messages, we have pretty much given up and just got used to rebooting controllers regularly.  We also have issues with the internal web server dying.  This is all on release 5.5.2.1 and we cannot move up to the newer releases because they don't work right with the active directory setup we have (the NetBIOS domain name does not match the AD domain name).

 

This product line has us very frustrated in general with its extreme bugginess and HP support telling us they have never seen a particular problem before when it is all over their own forums.  We have also noticed that they ask for more and more and more data on a problem and then seem to start over in troubleshooting from the beginnning.  This is not a good product line at all.

Re: Losing access to network

Wow!  This is still going on!

 

I posted here originally on 3/25/2010 and persued it with HP support.  One tech candidly told me that multiple standards (b,g,n) at 2.4 GHz was the problem.  I set our 33 MSM410 radios to g only and the problem went away.

 

Now I have some MSM430 radios (1:1 initiative with lots of kids with lots of notebooks) and they can not be set to G only!!! 

 

THE PROBLEM IS BACK! 

 

It would appear HP has not solved this.

 

How can we band together to get HP support to at least acknowledge that this is a problem?

Re: Losing access to network

We have been working with HP over th past few months. Last week they told us that they have found the underlying issue. We are now waiting for them to come back with the fix. They said it would likely be in the 5.5.3 code. I will post as soon as I hear anything.

Re: Losing access to network

5.5.3.0 is released, I had the same issue and updated the firmware to that and for 2 days there are no complaints, will have to monitor the status for longer time before 100% confirming that.
