Any chance the APs are trying to draw more power than your switches are configured to provide?
From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU] On Behalf Of Ronald Loneker Sent: Monday, September 14, 2015 11:38 AM To: WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Aruba Instant IAP-215 Wireless Access Points Good Morning - (forgive cross-postings - a member of the NETMAN list suggested this might be the place to post this question) 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.
