Trunking Access Point Ports
Salute,
Glad to be a part of the community. Am fairly new to HP Pro Curves and the network am sitting on so here goes,
Router/Switch - J8697A Routing enabled
Switches - J9772A
Mobility Controller - Aruba 3600
Domain Controller - WIN 2012 Server
The mobility controller has SSIDs configured to work with specific VLANs i.e Wireless is VLAN161 is configured to use network 10.52.161.0 and has to pick its IP from the DC scopes which is working perfectly. The port from the core switch to the DC is an access port but the DC can still give IPs from different VLANs like the wireless ones in 161 as earlier mentioned
The Access Points are untagged for access at the switch ports[VLAN161]
I have been asked to configure SSIDs that are specific to VLANs through the Access Points and the IPs have to come from the DC scopes. Here are my very few humble questions.
*Can this be done?
*Will the access points be able to pick IPs from the DC and provide access if the ports they are configured on are trunked? i.e vlan 122 tagged, vlan 161 tagged
*What config do i need to be able to communicate from one switch on the network to a VLAN IP at the Router
Thank you so much in advance.

Re: Trunking Access Point Ports
*Can this be done?
Of cause. VLAN 161 will be your management VLAN and in the SSID config you can set the egress VLAN ID. This is your tagged VLAN in which the clients traffic will be placed.
*Will the access points be able to pick IPs from the DC and provide access if the ports they are configured on are trunked? i.e vlan 122 tagged, vlan 161 tagged
The APs themself don't need IP adresses in the specific VLANs. You have to configure a DHCP Relay (or DHCP Helper) on your router. The router will forward DHCP discover packets to the DHCP server and the client will get an IP from the subnet.
*What config do i need to be able to communicate from one switch on the network to a VLAN IP at the Router
You need a Gateway in each subnet, so that clients can communicate outside of the subnet.
You need to tag the VLAN over every link between network devices (Switches, Router, AP, ...) to prevent configuration errors.

Re: Trunking Access Point Ports
Hello,
I did everything as you suggested and i am still getting IPs from a different VLAN from the Access SSID.
e.g
The STAFF VLAN is 161
SSID: STAFF
IP scope: 10.52.161.0/21
The Student VLAN is 122
SSID: Access
IP scope: 10.52.122.0/23
The DC is 10.52.101.10
Router config for the VLANs is shown below
Running configuration:
vlan 122
name "CIK-STD-FDN-WLN"
tagged Trk1-Trk2,Trk4,Trk20,Trk35-Trk36,Trk38,Trk101-Trk103
ip helper-address 10.52.101.10
ip address 10.52.122.1 255.255.254.0
ip ospf 10.52.122.1 area backbone
exit
CORE-GND-001# show running-config vlan 161
Running configuration:
vlan 161
name "WIRELESS"
tagged Trk1-Trk2,Trk4,Trk20,Trk35-Trk36,Trk38,Trk101-Trk103
untagged B24
ip helper-address 10.52.101.10
ip address 10.52.161.1 255.255.252.0
exit
From the controller 10.52.161.2 i can ping the DC and viseversa. The controller itself can get to 10.52.122.1 so, why am i only getting IPs from 161 no matter the SSID i setup. It keeps defaulting to the 161 network and all the IPs listed as being given to the APs are 161 IPs. The controller can only pick up the APs and show them in the controller 'IF' they get a 161 IP.
WHY CANT I GET AN IP FROM 122?? excuse the caps but am getting bald from the frustration
i have attached a couple of screen shots for reference
Thank you
