How does the WLSE handle duplicate IP addresses on APs?
A. The WLSE must be able to handle situations in which an AP is assigned an address that is already assigned to another device that has been discovered by the WLSE. The WLSE handles these situations by sending appropriate internal events, placing the device that previously had the address in the Duplicate IP folder and updating the database. Detection of duplicate addresses occurs during periodic checking for rebooted APs and during discovery. For information on how you should handle devices in the Duplicate IP folder, see the online help for the Devices tab or the section called “Handling Duplicate IP Addresses on Access Points” in the User Guide for the CiscoWorks Wireless LAN Solution Engine, Release 2.12 on Cisco.com.
