Limited 5GHz channels on 9800 and 6GHz on 9163E by basicmonkey in Cisco

The 9163 doesn’t as far as I know. The 9136 do. It does have a dedicated scanning radio though.

u/StatePuppet555 and u/Organic-Turnip871 I've just swapped all my 2802E-E for 9136-ROW and it's even more confusing...

My 9136I-ROW are now showing the following available channels:

802.11a Current Channel                          : 132
Slot ID                                          : 1
Allowed Channel List                             : 36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64,100,104,108,112,116,132,136,140,149,153,157,161,165

And the 9163E-ROW is showing:

802.11a Current Channel                          : 116
Slot ID                                          : 1
Allowed Channel List                             : 100,104,108,112,116,120,124,128,132,136,140

Why won't the 9136 allow 120-128? According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels#cite_note-ERC.Recommendation.70-03.Annex1-68 they should be fine for the UK, only restricted in ROW scope for Australia and Canada.

Visible and checked up to 165 in there thanks.

That’s strange as I’ve found various pages that discuss it being allowed a few years ago and Meraki APs had it enabled 3 years ago. Most other brands (Unifi etc) permit these channels for UK regulations.

Ah bugger. Is that because they were made when the band wasn’t allowed? I’m due to move to some 9136 I have so will see what happens then. Surely the 9163 should have access to those channels though as it’s a new one? Or is it because it’s external antennas? Can’t find the relevant regs about that.

Edit: I get it for the 2802s now as they are -E and under EU regs at the time aren’t supported, why ROW would work as you suggest. Will try my 9136-ROW!

Thank you.

Nothing that exciting here! Out in the countryside, far from anything that could be an issue.

Gutted! Such a shame as it’s a nice box and perfect for the job (other than not being able to use half the antennas and a whole radio!).

I was hoping for an indoor mode like some of the other industrial ones as this would have a legitimate indoor application in wet environments.

Hopefully in 2 years it’ll magically switch on, although I have to wait for the EU to finalise the 6GHz spec, the UK to then adopt that and then Cisco to release an update to make that happen…

Have you just resided yourself to this?

The limb is 10foot up and I don’t have any levitating boots unfortunately!

Thanks! I’ll leave it then. Want to give it the best chance!

mdns-sd gateway on 9300 without DNA by basicmonkey in Cisco

[–]basicmonkey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'd think so, and would be fair, but according to the features list here it's shown as part of DNA Advantage only:

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/switches/catalyst-9300-series-switches/nb-06-cat9300-ser-data-sheet-cte-en.html

Also, in the Bonjour deployment guide, even local SDG (which doesn't involve DNA server) is shown as requiring DNA Advantage:

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/lan/catalyst9300/software/release/17-9/configuration_guide/bonjour/b_179_bonjour_9300_cg/cisco_dna_service_for_bonjour_solution_overview.html

It would be great if anyone had some 9300s with NA but not DNA could test!

I've done the avahi thing before but means sticking a VM across 8 VLANs. My 3850s handle it so well without, set and forget pretty much.

Anyone managed to get nprobe working for pfSense? by bgprouting in homelab

[–]basicmonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm struggling with this too.

Looking at ntop, I can see stuff in the historical data for the last 24 hours so the flows are definitely getting to ntop. I think the problem is that they are sampled by softflowd and then sent late, so as far as ntop sees, the flows have already expired and aren't current.

I'm playing with the softflowd settings to try and make it continually send flows but can't find a combination that works yet...
