Wireless Access

Hi Guys, 

I noticed that our controllers are full of such error messages. Some controllers have no such entries at all, some have entries about a single AP, and some have entries about multiple APs. What do they mean, should we be concerned? I am experiencing the error in two completely independent systems.
System 1: AOS 8 MM-MD 8.10.0.17 software (72xx and 9xxx controllers, AP-5xx and AP-6xx APs)
System 2: AOS 8 MM-MD 8.10.0.21 software (9004 controllers and AP-6xx APs)

The exact error message is:

KERNEL(<AP-hostname>@<AP IP address>): [6459633.477497] aruba_mfp_encrypt_deauth_disassoc: Deauth already in progress !!

Screenshots attached.

Thanks!

The message "deauth already in progress" is caused by a race condition guard.

Are you having issues with certain clients? Find one which is being deauthenticated and look into why.

Have you learned anything more about this error? We see it in our 7240XM 8.10.17 environment and it accounts for 2/3 of all log messages. It is limited to our AP-635s. At that volume (a few million per day) we see multiple messages per second from all over campus, even at 3am when usage is extremely low.
