Hi team,
Today I was doing Lab 3.8 and have found out very strange and interesting limitation: Repeater AP does not pass client traffic with AES-CCMP encryption enabled! Actually, was doing the lab two or so times before and always used TKIP as DSG suggested. Today since the task does not specify encryption type I decided to go with AES. Initially all was fine: Repeater AP could connect to the Root AP and use its local radius, so data traffic flows between root and repeater APs. Client could connect to the Repeater but nothing more. It neither could obtain an ip address nor ping DG with static IP configured manually. I checked everything starting from switch port VLAN setting to Aironet extensions. All looked fine. Spent an hour for that stuff. Finally as a last resort attempt I changed the encryption type (to tkip) and voilà, surprisingly it started to work! Have anybody seen that before?
