Good morning, I need some information.
My net is like the attached diagram.
I would like to implement CAPsMAN but I don’t know where I need to configure it.
On the 760 I have WifiWave2 while on the 952 I have CAPsMAN.
Can I configure it on the 760 router or do I have to configure it on the 952 ?
Thanks

Okay, I started configuring CAPsMAN on the 952 and it works perfectly with internal Wlan.
But now, since I also have a MAP, I wanted to implement it.
CAPsMan server address is on the router 192.168.88.12.
In its configuration it points to itself, 127.0.0.1.
If it is as I think, or rather hope, is that the usefulness of CAPsMan is to have the same configuration even when connected to any MT router on the network. Am I wrong ?
Trying to connect it to the same router that generates CAPsMAN is not detected. Of course MAP starts in CAP mode but no luck.
Any advice ?
Thanks
Is the schematic helpful ?
Is the schematic theoretically as far as my general configuration is correct ?
Functioning it all works as I thought but if you also give me an opinion I would be more comfortable ![]()

CAPsMAN v1 is not compatible with wifiwave2 CAPsMAN so you can’t control devices with different versions of capsman.
OK, but I’m not mixing versions.
On the 952 there is CAPsMAN configured AND on the MAP there is the same version but it is not seen by the server.
And the further question is if Hho everything with the same version CAPsMAN passes from the various routers in the network ?
Is vlan30 defined as port for bridge on 952 ? Otherwise it will not work.
It might also be helpful to specify IP address of capsman controller in AP to “help” discovery a bit.
Si

What I can’t figure out is how does MAP find CAPsMan if it is on VL30 while the CAP server is on 192.168.88.0
Sorry I thought because of this that you are mixing versions.
Not seeing it.
Please show config of 952.

What device is providing router functions for vlans ?
I assume RB760.
Does map get an IP address in VLAN30-subnet when being connected to ether5 ?
I assume yes, if DHCP client is present on that device.
Since you want to reach capsman controller which is running on RB952 from a device on VLAN30, there should be a path from VLAN30 to RB952.
But right now, you excluded bridge from being a part of that VLAN, so it can not be found on that VLAN.
/interface bridge vlan
add bridge=bridge1 tagged=ether1 untagged=ether4 vlan-ids=10
add bridge=bridge1 tagged=ether1 untagged=ether5,wlan1,wlan2 vlan-ids=30
It will pass VLAN traffic across ports being part of that VLAN but it will not look at it.
Can you add bridge as tagged to VLAN30 on RB952 ?
What also may help, is to specify explicitly the IP address of RB952 as capsman controller on mAP. That way the flow will go first to your router (RB760) and then back to RB952 (again assuming that your router does allow that communication).
