CSCsr40109 Bug Details

http://tools.cisco.com/Support/BugToolKit/search/getBugDetails.do?method=fetchBu
gDetails&bugId=CSCsl51486&from=summary

Mobility announcements not sent after an upgrade when wrong version    
Symptom:

When a mobile station roams from an AP joined to one controller, to an AP
joined to another controller, the client may suffer a lack of data connectivity
for a period as long as the configured user idle timeout.

"debug mobility handoff enable" output shows that, after the roam event,
the WLC to which the client has roamed does not send the MobileAnnounce message
to the WLC from which the client had roamed.

Conditions:

Multiple WLCs in the same mobility group, running 4.2.112.0. The WLCs had all
been upgraded from 4.1.185.0, and then had not been rebooted again.

Workaround:

There are 2 workarounds for this issue,
1) Delete the mobility members from the configuration and re-add them.
2) After upgrading all WLCs to 4.2.112.0, reboot them all once more.

recent Windows Updates?


Lee, 

Are you using GLBP?  I recently had an issue with clients roaming from one AP to
another AP on a different controller, but in the same mobility group.  After a
week or so of providing Cisco with logs and configs I was issued the following:
Bugs CSCsv21441 and CSCsv21464 have been filed on the GLBP issue.  As a work
around I was instructed to use the router's actual ip address instead of the
GLBP virtual address for the default gateway on the client interfaces.

        This is getting worse for us, and I think we have found that the recent
Windows patches have their own baggage but are likely not the actual problem in
our Cisco environment. We have an open TAC case right now, but so far no
response to what is becoming a very disruptive condition. It seems that any OS
is impacted (Linux, Mac, Windows) but only on our secure 802.1x network- open
networks not affected- in that if you roam from one AP to another your session
breaks. Seems worse on APs on different controllers, though everything is in the
same mobility group. We've made no system changes and did not have this problem
a week ago. Weird stuff- debug is so convoluted and chattey on a busy controller
that it's hard to extract any value in this case

        Yes, Cisco for us.  2 6509E with 6 WiSMs (3x3) and 2 4404-100s in our
test core.  We just moved to 4.2.130.  I need to perform more testing with this
code in place.  We are using open and WPA with web authentication as well as
WPA2/AES.

        Cisco for you? And what version code? And only on secure WLAN or on open
nets as well?

        We are seeing the same thing here.  If anyone finds anything please post

        We are so far finding that just changing network selection  (go to
another network then come back) or disconnect/reconnect, or reboot, or similar
does tend to fix it.

        I have had reports from one user that sound very similar to your last
item.  They say they can connect in one location, but when they move they have
no connectivity.  If they move back they are online again.  I am still waiting
for the user to contact me with more details about their device, have you found
a fix/workaround for this?  We run mostly Meru with BlueSocket and nothing
special like 802.1x.

        Wondering if anyone else is feeling this effect after the recent spate
of updates to XP and Vista machines- our Mac. Linux, and handheld users seem to
be immune and we have had no configuration changes in our Cisco LWAPP
environment of late, and the condition has also been noted on at least two staff
machines in their home networks:
         
        -          Machines coming out of sleep, hibernation, screen saver, etc
have an IP address, but can ping nothing (but themselves)
        -          Wireless sniffing showed one user was simply generating null
data frames (likely 802.11 power save related)
        -          Or- user is good and functional on one AP, but cannot move to
an AP on another controller- same symptoms described above. Again, non-Windows
users have no issue
         
        Is this ringing bells for anyone? Mostly, this seems to be very recent.
I know for sure that Windows XP SP3 was not kind to one of my own PCs- after the
reboot it came up with unrecognized hardware (sound card) and drastic changes
were made to my wireless adapter including my 802.1x profile being changed.
