Really Bruce? No need to bash a user and vendor just because they were trying

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Aruba Instant IAP-215 Wireless Access Points

[Frans Panken]

We experienced that LLDP does not work properly in the case of non Cisco
the switches.
We have 3700 APs and Juniper switches. The APs require PoE+ to function
with all MIMO capabilities (4 spatial streams). The WLC tells us that
there is no PoE+. With Cisco switches, the WLC does mention that there
is PoE+. Even with a PoE+ injector of Cisco, the WLC still mentions PoE.
This was when we used 8.0 MR1. Clients could still use 4 spatial
streams. We were told this was a Cisco bug and the problem would be
solved in MR2 (which we are not intending to use).
According to the Juniper swith, the APs use less power than you would
expect:

InterfaceAdmin   OperMaxPriority   Power  Class
 status  status  power consumption
ge-6/0/15Enabled  ON 30.0W  Low4.3W4

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Aruba Instant IAP-215 Wireless Access Points

[Eric Rose]

We ran into an LLDP issue with Juniper EX switches and Aruba APs last summer, 
see PR898234. We disabled LLDP  as a work around on the specific ports until we 
could update to the latest TAC approved firmware.

https://prsearch.juniper.net/InfoCenter/index?page=prcontent=PR898234

Hope this helps,

Any chance the APs are trying to draw more power than your switches are 
configured to provide?

We just had close to 90 new Aruba Instant IAP-215 wireless access points 
installed in our residence halls to upgrade our wireless network.  Another 
building is soon to be underway, and I'm managing this project.

Over the last couple of weeks, it seems like random access points are 
shutting down wireless access.  They are not all connected to the same Cisco 
switch (various Cisco POE switches in two residence halls).  The access 
point is not ping-able, the MAC address is not found in the virtual 
controller's table, the switch port is up and power is being supplied to the 
access point.  The only way we seem to get an access point back up is to do 
a shut/no shut on the switch port to which it is connected.

The vendor who configured the access points hasn't been able to determine 
why this is happening and before we initiate an Aruba support call, I was 
wondering if anyone had any similar experiences like this and what you 
determined was the cause of the issue.  We are running into walls here.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts or ideas.

The other thing you might check is to see if you have LLDP running on the 
switches.  This can help with Poe negotiation.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Aruba Instant IAP-215 Wireless Access Points

[Lionel Shigemura]

Using WS-C2960S-48LPS-L & WS-C2960X-48LPD-L
With lldp transmit enabled (default), non-IAP model PoE consumption on
Cisco switches below:
AP-135 draws 15.4 watts
AP-215 draws 21.4 watts
AP-225 draws 22.4 watts
AP-275 draws 30.0 watts

Although not standard and recommended, we have some Aruba AP-215s running
on Bertek CAT5 UTP under 200' distances at Gig.  Surprisingly, many
pass CAT5e permanent link certification using Fluke DSX.  Using certified
CAT6 patch cords for cross-connects and it has been stable.  No frame
errors, resets, or AP reboots.Using Aruba OS 6.4.2.12.  I would think
the non-virtual controller IAP-215 would draw similar loads as the AP-215.
Max load on a Cisco 370watt PoE switch is (~17) AP-215.

As stated previously, check Cisco/Aruba logs and settings.  If possible,
re-certify the problem horizontal runs.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Aruba Instant IAP-215 Wireless Access Points

[Howard, Christopher]

It’s been a while, but we had a similar issue with Cisco 2960S and Aruba APs 
(the regular version) a couple years.  There was a bug in the Aruba code that 
caused the AP to request more power than the switch could deliver (>30 watts).  
The switch would bug out and not deliver enough power.  I don’t recall offhand 
what version of code that was on, and I know it was fixed.  Perhaps it has 
re-appeared again?  It seemed to only affect Cisco switches as our Brocade 
switches would still send out what was required to run the AP.
