本文将记录如何配置HA SSO以及Ethernet Channel。
1.拓扑情况
本文的内容基于如下的Topo进行。
2.准备工作
- 两台WLC的型号必须一样;
- 两台WLC必须使用一样的软件版本;
- 需要准备好使用的IP地址:两个用于WLC的管理地址(WMI),两个WLC的RMI地址;
基于如上的信息,我们规划地址如下:
- Primary WLC Wireless Management Interface (WMI) IP Address = 10.10.99.10
- Secondary WLC Wireless Management Interface (WMI) IP Address = 10.10.99.11
- Primary WLC Redundancy Management Interface (RMI) IP Address = 10.10.99.12
- Secondary WLC Redundancy Management Interface (RMI) IP Address = 10.10.99.13
3.配置工作
3.1.配置Primary WLC
1.创建VLAN:这个VLAN是用作WLC的管理VLAN。
vlan 999
name WLC-MGMT
2.创建P WLC的WMI和RMI地址。
Management Interface (RMI):
interface vlan 999
description WLC-MGMT
ip address 10.10.99.10 255.255.255.0
ip address 10.10.99.12 255.255.255.0 secondary
no shutdown
Designate VLAN as Management VLAN:
wireless management interface Vlan999
Configure Default Route:
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.10.99.1 name DEFAULT-ROUTE
Configure physical interfaces (preferably using LACP Port-Channel):
interface range Te0/0/0-3
description Trunk Upstream Core
channel-group 1 mode active
interface portchannel 1
description Trunk Upstream Core
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk allowed vlan all
no shutdown
For Primary WLC, set priority to 2 (highest priority):
Note that this command is configured in Privilege EXEC Mode (WLC# prompt)
chassis 1 priority 2
! Enable HA SSO mode:
config terminal
redundancy
mode sso
! Designate Management VLAN as Redundancy Management Interface (RMI):
redun-management interface Vlan999 chassis 1 address 10.10.99.12 chassis 2 address 10.10.99.13
! Save configuration:
do write mem
3.2.配置Standby WLC
Standby WLC的配置大体和Primary WLC的配置相似。
! Create Management VLAN:
vlan 999
name WLC-MGMT
! Create Wireless Management Interface (WMI) and Redundacy Management Interface (RMI):
interface vlan 999
description WLC-MGMT
ip address 10.10.99.11 255.255.255.0
ip address 10.10.99.13 255.255.255.0 secondary
no shutdown
! Designate VLAN as Management VLAN:
wireless management interface Vlan999
! Configure Default Route
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.10.99.1 name DEFAULT-ROUTE
! Configure physical interfaces (preferably using LACP Port-Channel):
interface range Te0/0/0-3
description Trunk Upstream Core
channel-group 1 mode active
interface portchannel 1
description Trunk Upstream Core
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk allowed vlan all
no shutdown
! For Secondary WLC, renumber this unit ("chassis") to number 2 (but let priority stay at 1, which is default):
! Note that this command is configured in Privilege EXEC Mode (WLC# prompt)
chassis 1 renumber 2
! Enable HA SSO mode:
config terminal
redundancy
mode sso
! Designate Management VLAN as Redundancy Management Interface (RMI):
redun-management interface Vlan999 chassis 1 address 10.10.99.12 chassis 2 address 10.10.99.13
! Save configuration:
do write mem
3.3.配置Core SW
请注意,虽然在上面的主WLC和备WLC 上都使用了port-channel 1,但在上游核心交换机上,这些port-channel编号需要不同。
例如,对将连接到主WLC的物理端口使用port-channel 1,对将连接到备WLC的物理端口使用端口port-channel 2。
Configure Port-channel to Primary WLC (WLC01):
interface range Te1/1/1-4
description Trunk Primary WLC01
channel-group 1 mode active
no shutdown
interface Portchannel 1
description Trunk Primary WLC01 Portchannel
switchport mode trunk
spanning-tree portfast trunk
no shutdown
Configure Port-channel to Secondary WLC (WLC02):
interface range Te2/1/1-4
description Trunk Secondary WLC02
channel-group 2 mode active
no shutdown
interface Portchannel 2
description Trunk Secondary WLC02 Portchannel
switchport mode trunk
spanning-tree portfast trunk
no shutdown
do write mem
3.4.将WLC以及网络其余部分连接
所有配置就绪后,现在可以使用冗余端口RP(直接或通过核心交换机或类似设备中的专用 VLAN)将WLC相互连接,并使用数据端口(physical ports/port channels)将WLC连接到网络的其余部分)。
确保您已保存两个 WLC 上的配置,然后发出“reload”命令,并在 WLC 重启时连接所有线路。
3.5.配置后任务
启用网关监控(Gateway Monitoring),允许 WLC 跟踪其默认网关,并在当前Active WLC 的默认网关路径发生问题时允许进行故障转移Failover。
management gateway-failover enable
也可以开启Standby WLC的console,以便需要的时候方便排障。
redundancy
main-cpu
standby console enable
4.验证工作
4.1.检查机框
使用show chassis命令
4.2.检查冗余情况
使用show redundancy states
4.3.Failover测试
如果您想通过强制故障转移来测试冗余,您可以拔下主 WLC(当前应该是活动 WLC),也可以使用以下命令:
redundancy force-switchover
