Hey Deb,

Maybe all you need is to add option 43 with the hex of the ip address for the 
controller. Hope this helps you.

Subject: Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Cisco AIR-CAP2702E could not discover WLC

Not with 2702's but 3702's, we had a batch come in enabled in Bridge mode out 
of the box. In which case you have to login to your controller and add the MAC 
address in the filter to allow it to associate. Then let it download the image, 
then change the mode.

Massively annoying, but sometimes that's how it goes...

This sounds very much like the problem we had with 20+ 2702I-E-K9 APs.  It's a 
bug in the firmware - no idea how it got through testing...

We had to serially config them all by hand - very painful.

Process was...

  *   Get MAC address of AP into your DHCP server
  *   Boot AP
  *   Using serial cable - enable -> Cisco
  *   Type: capwap ap controller ip address w.x.y.z (in a few seconds the AP 
will start firmware upgrade - AP flashing blue)
  *   When you get the usual "Not in Bound state" error, login to the CLI 
Uesrname: Cisco, Password: Cisco
  *   enable -> Cisco
  *   Type: clear lwapp private-config (AP will now start chatting to wism 
w.x.y.z)

Apologies if this is not the same issue but if it is it will save you an awful 
lot of time trying to figure it out.

We also saw the issue Jezz mentioned with two MAC addresses.  That was easier 
to overcome!

I am trying to deploy the 2702E AP's with 5508 wireless controllers and am 
seeing the following error:

Could not discover WLC.  Either IP address is not assigned or assigned IP is 
wrong.  Renewing DHCP IP.  It will receive an IP address, and then continue 
this error message and keep trying to renew DHCP IP.
I can connect a AIR-CAP2702I to the same PoE switch and it connects flawlessly. 
  I'm not sure why the 2702I will work and not the 2702E.
Has anyone else ran into this issue?
