Hi all,
I've 2 devices, an L009UiGS-2HaxD with CAPsMAN enabled with 2 cfg for 2ghz and 5Ghz 802.11ax radios and a C53UiG+5HPaxD2HPaxD with CAP client enabled.
The client connects to the capsman but no radio are listed in the proper section. The other strange thing is that on remote CAP i see the device connected but with no IP.
(on IP -> Neighbors i see that device with the IP, BTW these devices are on the same subnet)
Any idea on what's happening?
It's the 1st wifi-qcom and capsman configuration.
With past wireless and capsman i never seen this kind of problem.

Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
Have you tried clearing out all certificates ?
Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
yes, I've tried also to leave default (blank) on Cert and CA fields with the same result.Have you tried clearing out all certificates ?
Question: the CAP client hasn't a cert and doesn't generate a new one. I've to create it manually and set on Wifi -> CAP settings?
Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
Personally I don't use certificates.
I don't see the benefit from using it in my own LAN environment.

Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
me too but leaving blank the related fields or setting to "auto" makes no differences, the cert will be autogenerate (and i suppose used)Personally I don't use certificates.

There is no video attached (yet).please see the attached video.
Could you please share both configs of CAPS and of CAPsMAN?

Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
L009:
/interface wifi
set [ find default-name=wifi1 ] configuration=*1 configuration.mode=ap
Where is the missing configuration ?
/interface wifi cap
set certificate=request discovery-interfaces=bridge-local enabled=yes
You can not enable caps mode on local interfaces for wave2 device. You need to configure them locally (using 90% the same settings as you would for capsman).

All steps done are shown in this video: https://youtu.be/LHnmF4_-Da0
Yes I agree, i've done it for seeing if there're differences between a remote cap client./interface wifi cap

Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
Tried also with 7.13.5 with no success
Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
My suggestions:
1) disable CAP mode on main
2) apply cfg1 to interface wifi1 on main
3) disable detect internet on main
4) disable capsman on AP1
5) remove "certificate=request" on cap configuration of AP1
Probably, resetting AP1 to CAP mode is the best option (instead of points 4-5).
And please remember that L009UiGS does not have 5GHz radio, AFAIK.

Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
Side note: the L009 is much less powerful than the hAP ax3. Have you considered to switch the two device roles?
Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
to be honest i've already tried to switch role of 2 RBs with same result.Side note: the L009 is much less powerful than the hAP ax3. Have you considered to switch the two device roles?
I've done video and config dump when in the 2nd scenario but doesn't matter at the moment.
The main problem is that new wifi CAPsMAN is not working following official wiki.
Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
Have you tried my suggestions 1-5? Can you post the full configs after you applied them?
Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
done with no changesMy suggestions:
1) disable CAP mode on main
skipped because i'm not interested on L009 wifi2) apply cfg1 to interface wifi1 on main
why? internet detection is enabled on other interfaces different to local bridge3) disable detect internet on main
done, with no changes on capsman, no dynamic remote radio created.....4) disable capsman on AP1
5) remove "certificate=request" on cap configuration of AP1
Probably, resetting AP1 to CAP mode is the best option (instead of points 4-5).
Yes, it's only a 2.4 GHZ 802.11ax interface, but at the moment i'm not interested on using it. My goal is to make wifi-qcom CAPsMAN working for adding more HAP ax3 with one as CAPsMAN Main and other 2 pcs as CAP clients.And please remember that L009UiGS does not have 5GHz radio, AFAIK.

Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
To properly troubleshoot problems it is often useful to reduce potential factors that interferes.
We are trying to help and I never got you were not interested in configuring wifi on L009.
My impression is that your config lacks of provisioning rules.

why use capsman with only ONE Access point ??

Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
I never told that this is the final scenario.... which also raises the question:

My final config has 3 x HAP ax3 and 1 x L009
Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
Secondly, you probably missed the following part on the CAP:
Code: Select all
/interface/wifi/set wifi1,wifi2 configuration.manager=capsman-or-local
Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
In that case you definitely need those provisioning rules and ideally even per radio mac address to steer correct frequency setting for each of those APs (other options also possible. I find MAC address to be the easiest way to be sure what goes where).I never told that this is the final scenario.
My final config has 3 x HAP ax3 and 1 x L009
PS official help pages do show all this.
Are you sure you are looking at the correct page ?

Thanks, this was the missing element!Secondly, you probably missed the following part on the CAP:Code: Select all/interface/wifi/set wifi1,wifi2 configuration.manager=capsman-or-local
Since I've done all config in WinBox I've not found the proper section to assign wifi interfaces to capsman.

The 2nd tab when you open that interface.Since I've done all config in WinBox I've not found the proper section to assign wifi interfaces to capsman.
Configuration and then the field labeled Manager.

Re: CAPsMAN not working on 7.13.4
The structure of the command gives you the hint about where the option is located. However, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37aff6d14Xk minute 4.00 onwards.
Let me point out that you were following the wrong page (old CAPsMAN). The right help page is the one I linked before.
I warmly suggest you to reset to CAPS mode (same youtube video, at minute ~3.00) your future APs.
PS: You probably want to mark the topic as resolved.

You're right, I relied too much on the old capsman setup.The structure of the command gives you the hint about where the option is located. However, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37aff6d14Xk minute 4.00 onwards.
