Cisco 4400 WLC

Does Cirrus support the Cisco LWAPP WLC's if not will they in the future?

Thanks

Jon

 I am interested to know the answer to this as well.

This would be a valuable device to have Cirrus manage in my environment as well.

jodros,

Doing a 'show running-config' will provide the current running config of the wireless lan controller.

I would like to see the wireless module support these devices as well. All the information that was gathered from the stand alone AP's is contained in the 1.3.6.1.4.1.14179.2.1 mib tree on the WLC's. I know it's formatted differently but it is all there I think.

Login no enable, then show running-config (has to be the full command) there isn't a show startup-config.

I don't think it can help not being fully Cisco and being a combination of Cisco and Airspace CLI.

Well I just made a simple device template to download the running-config at least off of my WLC.  For now, that will have to do.

Sure.  I will post the template for the WLC that I created.  The template only allows for config download, nothing else.  It is a direct config download using telnet, so the communication settings should be set to all telnet.  I tried getting the ssh to work, but I ran into log in issues with the Cirrus.  The cool thing about the download being direct is that you can actually read the config within Cirrus.  If you try to manually TFTP the config from the WLC to you workstation, for example, it will not be in a format that you can open and read.  I am uploading it now.

Works a treat, thanks.

Inventory works but doesn't pull back a lot, it's makes me chuckle that The hardware vendor and machine type are still showing as Black Storm Networks and that Cisco haven't changed it yet.

I took advantage of your script for my 3750 Integrated controller which should have the same internal guts as a 4400 WLC and am getting stuck.

The following is what is coming back in the trace

Process Line = <show run>
Echo recievedshow run
Process Line = <>
Process Line = <Press Enter to continue...>
Pushing back: <Press Enter to continue...>
mPrompt is : <(Cisco Controller) >>
TimerTick: mstrData=<Press Enter to continue...> State=3 - Connected to server - idle
Pending Disconnect = False
TimerTick: mstrData=<Press Enter to continue...> State=3 - Connected to server - idle
Pending Disconnect = False
TimerTick: Just tick-tockin away. ..
TimerTick: mstrData=<Press Enter to continue...> State=3 - Connected to server - idle
Pending Disconnect = False
 

What needs to happen for an [Enter] to be hit?

BTW the syntax was edited from "sho running-config" to "sho run-config".  Maybe there is a commaind line difference!

Does anyone know how to clear the flash on a 4402.

I am trying to upgrade to a newer software version and the tftp fails while loading to flash.

For a router or switch that is the exact way, however there is no enable mode on this WLC 4402. There are very few actual cisco commands that work on this box. That is what is so perplexing about this upgrade. I am only about 3MB short in flash mem and I can't load the new version. I have tried write erase, didn't work, I have tried dir flash:, didn't work. If anyone has any suggestions, I will be very thankful.

How about: 

del flash:<file_name>

I'm not sure if you meant to say that instead of dir flash:

Any luck getting the script to hit the enter key at the correct prompts? I am having the exact same issue, and I did have to change it to sh run-config as well. Thanks.

The script works just fine on our 4402's.  The problem I'm running into is that I can't use SSH.  As mentioned earlier, Telnet is the only way this works.  I see why this is happening.  Telnet is promprted for a user name and password.  SSH is prompted for a "login as" and then a username and password.  The "login as" name is the same as the regular username.  Is there any way to get Cirrus to pass the extra "login as" information so I can use SSH.  I can't leave telnet enabled on the WLC's. 

I have the same issue as rcahill. On our 4402's it appears there is a prompt to "Press Enter to continue Or <Ctl Z> to abort" before it pages through the config. If I add any additional character in the sh run-config line like this: "sh run-config x" it will get me past the first enter prompt, but it wont input anything on the next enter prompt. I tried adding a delay to the string as shown below, but it doesnt seem to work, when I manually telnet to the device it appears I have to press enter to continue about 30 times to get through the whole config. What if anything can i do to get a character input at the appropriate point?
