The CAPWAP Source Interface or Address Is Not Configured on the AC
Each AC requires the configuration of at least one or two IP addresses, VLANIF interfaces, or loopback interfaces. In this manner, APs managed by the AC can learn the specified IP address or the IP address of the specified interface to set up a CAPWAP tunnel with the AC. This specified IP address or interface is called the source address or interface.
Troubleshooting Procedure
- Run the display capwap configuration command on the AC to check whether the CAPWAP source address or interface is configured.
<AC> display capwap configuration --------------------------------------------------------------- Source interface IPv4 : vlanif100 Source interface IPv6 : - Source IPv4 address : - Source IPv6 address : - ... ...
- If the source interface is configured, check whether an IP address is correctly configured for the interface.
<AC> system-view [AC] interface vlanif 100 [AC] display this # interface Vlanif100 ip address 10.100.1.2 255.255.255.0 #
- If neither the CAPWAP source interface nor CAPWAP source interface is configured, run the capwap source interface or capwap source { ip-address | ipv6-address } command to configure one.
The following uses the CAPWAP source interface as an example:
<AC> system-view [AC] interface vlanif 100 [AC-Vlanif100] ip address 192.168.10.1 24 [AC-Vlanif100] quit [AC] capwap source interface vlanif 100
