Hello,
im currently trying to get a Mikrotik based WLAN set up to run but I fail to see the SSID I provision to the CAP. I Hope you can point me to my mistake.
The CAPSMAN runs on a Hex (RB750Gr3) running routerOS version 6.43.8. I only want to use the Hex as the CAPs Manager since I already have a pfSense doing the routing and interconnect between VLANs.
Here is my current setup:
I added a bridge and bound it to ether5 with VLAN 10 und 20 (VLAN 10 as the CAPs Management VLAN and VLAN 20 for the WLAN Traffic)
/interface bridge
add name=bridge_wlan
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge_wlan interface=ether5
/interface bridge vlan
add bridge=bridge_wlan tagged=ether5,bridge_wlan,vlan10 vlan-ids=10
add bridge=bridge_wlan tagged=bridge_wlan,ether5,vlan20 vlan-ids=20
/interface vlan
add interface=bridge_wlan name=vlan10 vlan-id=10
add interface=bridge_wlan name=vlan20 vlan-id=20
/caps-man manager interface
set [ find default=yes ] forbid=yes
add disabled=no interface=bridge_wlan
ether5 is connected to a port an a Cisco SG200 Switch with the following config
interface gigabitethernet3
description CAPS-Manager
storm-control broadcast enable
storm-control include-multicast unknown-unicast
switchport trunk allowed vlan add 20
switchport trunk native vlan 10
The CAP is a CAP ac (RBcAPGi-5acD2nD) it is connected to a port on the same Cisco SG200 with the following config:
interface gigabitethernet1
description "CAP EG"
storm-control broadcast enable
storm-control include-multicast unknown-unicast
switchport trunk allowed vlan add 20
switchport trunk native vlan 10
power inline powered-device CAP-EG
power inline priority high
And I added it by the “hold the reset button for 10 seconds” to the CAPSMAN on the Hex.
/caps-man remote-cap print detail
0 state="Run" name="[XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:13]" radios=2 address=YY:YY:YY:YY:YY:7E/40992 board="RBcAPGi-5acD2nD" serial="XXXXXXXXX" base-mac="XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:13" version="6.43.8" identity="CAP EG"
And I added a configuration and provision for a 2.4GHz and 5Ghz WLAN SSID
/caps-man configuration
add channel.band=5ghz-a/n/ac country=germany datapath.local-forwarding=yes datapath.vlan-id=20 datapath.vlan-mode=use-tag mode=ap name=TestWLAN5G security.authentication-types=wpa2-psk \
security.encryption=aes-ccm security.group-encryption=aes-ccm security.passphrase=1234567890 ssid=TestWLAN5G
add channel.band=2ghz-b/g/n country=germany datapath.local-forwarding=yes datapath.vlan-id=20 datapath.vlan-mode=use-tag mode=ap name=TestWLAN2G security.authentication-types=wpa2-psk \
security.encryption=aes-ccm security.group-encryption=aes-ccm security.passphrase=1234567890 ssid=TestWLAN2G
/caps-man provisioning
add action=create-dynamic-enabled master-configuration=TestWLAN5G slave-configurations=TestWLAN2G
If I provision the CAP with /caps-man remote-cap provision 0 I see an entry in /log print
21:14:19 caps,info cap5: selected channel 2412/20-Ce/gn(30dBm)
21:14:20 caps,info cap6: selected channel 5785/20-eeCe/ac(30dBm)
And I see the following in /caps-man interface
/caps-man interface print detail
Flags: M - master, D - dynamic, B - bound, X - disabled, I - inactive, R - running
0 M B name="cap5" mac-address=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:80 arp-timeout=auto radio-mac=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:80 master-interface=none radio-name="XXXXXXXXXX80" l2mtu=1600 current-state="running-ap"

current-authorized-clients=0
But I don’t see the SSIDs.
Did I miss something? How do I get the flag “running” to the interfaces?
Thanks
