Cisco CAPWAP AP stuck in Discovery

L1 Bithead

Hi All,

 

Has anyone had problems with CAPWAP AP's separated from the WLC by a PA-220 firewall get stuck in a DISCOVERY OperationState?

 

>show capwap client rcb
AdminState : ADMIN_ENABLED
OperationState : DISCOVERY
Name : ***
SwVer : 8.5.151.0
HwVer : 1.0.0.0
MwarApMgrIp : 10.1.1.2
MwarName : CISCO-LWAPP-CONTROLLER
MwarHwVer : 0.0.0.0
Location : ***
ApMode : FlexConnect
ApSubMode : Not Configured
CAPWAP Path MTU : 1421
CAPWAP UDP-Lite : Enabled
IP Prefer-mode : IPv4
AP Link DTLS Encryption : OFF
AP TCP MSS Adjust : Enabled
AP TCP MSS size : 1250
LinkAuditing : disabled
Efficient Upgrade State : Disabled
Flex Group Name : ***
AP Group Name : default-group
Cisco Trustsec Config
AP Inline Tagging Mode : Disabled
AP Sgacl Enforcement : Disabled
AP Override Status : Disabled

 

If I do a clear session all filter source <IP of AP> the AP will shortly come online again so it does appear to be the PA220 that's causing the problem.

 

>show capwap client rcb
AdminState : ADMIN_ENABLED
OperationState : UP

 

Even when the AP is offline I can ping the WLC just fine and interestingly if I add application capwap to the clear session filter it doesn't come back up.

 

We did create an application-override rule for the capwap traffic but that hasn't helped and since clearing on the capwap session doesn't help and there isn't any other session from that IP I am very confused.

 

Thanks in advance for any suggestions will also open a TAC case but they seem to take so long to respond these days with COVID and all.

Kevin
