AP having MAC Address [""] currently Not Joined with this Primary AP!!

CBS 150AX AP & 151AXM Mesh Extender 

I can get the AP setup, but having endless issues getting the Mesh Extender to register. Tried a single VLAN-tagged (VLAN 20) Cisco Switch Access port, and tried Cisco Switch Trunk (VLAN 20, 30, and 50) port. Set Global AP Config Native VLAN as 50.

Goal

• Primary AP + Extender + 2nd Extender - VLAN 50
• WLAN 1 - VLAN 20
• WLAN 2 - VLAN 30

Using GUI only.

Wisdom welcomed!

The management VLAN must be untagged, so set the switch port for the 150AX to trunk, native VLAN 50, PVID 50, tagged VLANs 20 and 30.

Is there a DHCP server in VLAN 50?

Maurice,

I was able to figure it out. From the perspective of a first-time user of this product, the documentation seems a little lacking. A lot of trial and error, but I suppose one could say that is also beneficial. Thank you for taking the time to respond!

Hi,

My network of 7 x 150AX and 2 x 151AXM both 151AXM are returning AP having MAC Address [" ... "] currently Not Joined with this Primary AP!!!

2 WLANs, not VLAN tagging.

Any ideas? Thanks!
