• Autonomous to LWAPP upgrade on 1242ag AP failure

  Upgrade tool I am trying to convert an AIR-AP1242AG-A-K9 LWAPP autonomous access point but the upgrade fails when it tries to load the recovery image on the AP. Has anyone encountered this problem and if so, what is the solution? 12.3 (11) running IOS JA on the AP.

  Hi Jason,

  Load the standalone IOS using the mode button. Once the IOS is running, copy the recovery image using the "copy tftp: flash:" and change the boot settings to start the recovery image.

  Once the AP boots the recovery image, make sure the AP can ping to the IP address of the WLC management and use the command 'lwap ap controller ip address.

  I hope this helps.

• The Access Points of 1142 conversion of autonomous to LWAPP

  Hi all

  I'm trying to convert 5 1142 APs to LWAPP... they came as autonomous APs out of the box, but the client decided to go the unified road, so I need to convert them to finish the job.  I tried to use that tool to upgrade to ver 3.4 and it say that the AP 1142 is not supported by the upgrade tool

  Is there another way to do this?

  Thanks in advance!

  Console or SSH to your access point and enter the following command:

  Archive Download-sw tftp://x.x.x.y/c1140-rcvk9w8-tar.124-21a.JA.tar

  x.x.x.y = the address of your tftp server.

  just like the upgrade to any newer device of Cisco. Of course you need a running tftp server, ect.,...

  Good luck to you.

• AP fails to reach the controller

  I have a controller 4402 and I try to add a 1200 AP series as the first point of access.

  The controller has 5.2.178 a version of the code and the AP has just been converted from autonomous to lwapp.

  I checked the date and time of the two units, and they are in a few minutes apart.

  Here's what the AP shows when it is start and fails to reach.

  Have you used the Cisco Aironet for LWAPP conversion tool.

  in the affirmative.

  Check the installation of the upgrade tool directory and see if it has created a (.csv) file that contains the CSD for the AP. Then manually add in the WLC under Security, then AP policies link.

• Script for Standalone AP with no disconnection

  Salvation Group

  In a desktop remote both standalone AP enough wireless coverage, if a user moves from one end to the other end can disconnect network avoid connecting from one access point to another without WLC access point. Allows to consider also the two AP are configured same SSID / encryption / password

  Another Question-> can a TOUR be easily converted to standalone AP and vice versa

  Concerning

  Vishal

  You should have no problem of homelessness between two APs with the same SSID and Setup to put users on the same subnet. As far as autonomous to lwapp and vice versa, yes you can convert APs back and fourth.

• 1131AG WLC down even if it is enabled

  I have converted 2 1131AG autonomous to LWAPP. On controller 4404, the two told AP "Admin status = enabled" and "status Oper = down. How can this be?

  Thanks for the sides. I use a number of AP 1250 with power injectors and the standard pre and selection of power injector is not defined but x-rays are OK.

• WRT300N using LWAPP environment

  Can someone comment if Linksys WRT300N wireless routers are compatible with the LWAPP configuration?

  My school lab configuration uses routers to services integrated Cisco with NM-AIR-WLC6-K9 network as the network LWAP controllers modules.  The controller accepts configuration without error, is not looking upwards or printing see WRT300 AP routers, so can't push LWAP basic config info.  The WRT300s are on and handed over to their default configs.

  New: the WRT300N is a consumer router. This is no device business. It does not with the controllers wireless company. It is autonomous.

• to convert 1142N AP autonomous lightweight access point

  Hello

  I have 4 1142N access points are all points of light access. Because I don't have a controller, I need to convert to standalone AP.

  I went through document cisco 1142, where it is mentioned that "the access point 1142 doesn't have the default IP address"

  I know procedure to convert offline in which I need to connect ap to the TFTP 10.0.0.1 with the ip address by default, but as for 1142, we do not have the default ip address. What is the procedure to convert offline?

  I have to assign a pool in one of the local switch and connect the ap to these switches with vlan, so she will receive the IP address of the DHCP server?

  But how can we without default IP address? I wonder about this...

  If I did not turn on where I can assign pool dhcp... what should I do?

  Please suggest me to convert 1142 standalone AP ap...

  I will be thankful to get the right answer...

  Hi Vinod,

  Here's the resolution...

  The image that is on the device's LWAPP, not the autonomous... If you want to use the AP in stand-alone mode, then the image must be W7...  It's...

  C1140-k9w7 - tar.124 - 21A .JY .tar not c1140-rcvk9w8 - tar.124 - 23c.JA.tar

  Please feel free to download any image from the below link and perform the conversion of image LWAPP to stand alone...

  the methos to convert is...

  Download TFTPd32 of google and install it on your PC... point of the image that you downloaded on the TFTP server.

  Connect a cable ethernet between your notebook and AP... both should be on the same subnet... Connect a cable from the console and access the hyperterminal console with the command... Make sure that you are able to ping the PC and AP and vice versa!

  AP > en

  AP #debug lwapp console cli or debugging console cli capwap

  T AP #config

  AP (confg) int FA 0

  AP(confg-IF) ip addr (same subnet as the laptop)

  End AP(confg-IF)

• Ligthweigth autonomous mode!

  HI, I need to change the access point Ligthwiegth IOS and make it work like an Autonomus AP 1242. I have the image, but I'm not really clear on the process. I got to get into the real point of Ligthwiegth access to the console port, but I don't know how is the process of valuation...

  I'd appreciate any advice! TKS

  Hi Paul,.

  There are 2 methods to do this, take a look;

  Returning to standalone Access Point

  It is possible to return to a point of access compatible LWAPP Cisco Aironet return to autonomous mode. Please refer to Cisco Aironet Lightweight mode standalone update Access Points to get detailed instructions on the returning to stand-alone mode. Use this URL

  http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/products/HW/wireless/ps430/prod_technical_reference09186a00804fc3dc.html#wp161272

  Convert a standalone Lightweight Access Point

  You can convert an access point of the mode light return to autonomous mode by loading a Cisco IOS version that supports stand-alone mode (Cisco IOS release 12.3 (7) JA or earlier version). If the access point is associated with a controller, you can use the controller to load the version of Cisco IOS. If the access point is not associated with a controller, you can load the version of Cisco IOS using TFTP.

  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Note in some deployments LWAPP, LWAPP controller lies between access points and the rest of the network. In this topology, all traffic must pass through the controller communicate with network resources, such as a TFTP server, can occur. When converting back to non - IOS LWAPP with an access point that uses the LWAPP Protocol is no longer, traffic does not reach on the controller to reach the TFTP server.

  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Using a LAN Controller wireless to go back to a previous version

  Follow these steps to return mode LWAPP stand-alone mode using a wireless LAN Controller:

  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Journal of step 1 in the CLI on the controller that is associated with the access point.

  Step 2, enter this command:

  config ap tftp-downgrade filename tftp-address-ip access point name

  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  By using a TFTP server to revert to a previous version

  Follow these steps to return mode LWAPP stand-alone mode by loading a version of Cisco IOS using a TFTP server:

  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Step 1 the IP address of the computer on which the server software runs TFTP should range from 10.0.0.2 to 10.0.0.30.

  Step 2 make sure the PC contains the file access point (for example, c1200-k9w7 - tar.122 - 15.JA.tar for a 1200 Series access point) in the TFTP server folder and the TFTP server is activated.

  Step 3 Rename the access point image file in the folder of the TFTP server c1200-k9w7 - tar.default for a series of 1200 point, c1130-k9w7 - tar.default of access for a series of 1130 access point and c1240-k9w7 - tar.default for a series of 1240 access point.

  Step 4 connect the PC to the access point using an Ethernet category 5 cable (CAT5).

  Step 5 disconnect the power to the access point.

  Step 6 push the MODE button and hold the button while you reconnect power to the access point.

  Step 7 hold the MODE button until the status of the LED turns red (approximately 20 to 30 seconds), then release.

  Step 8 wait until restarting access point, as indicated by the LEDs become green followed the status LED flashes green.

  Step 9 after the access point reboots, reconfigure using the GUI or the CLI.

• weight light autonomous vs

  I have a remote site that will require about 15 APs. I was wondering if there was a rule when you have to go light autonomous vs. I feel independent would be the answer with this small configuration because this would save money and 15 must be easy to manage. But I know they make a wireless for 6 AP controller I welcome different opinions.

  Hello

  I have not heard of a rule on a number, but for 15 I would go with a controller. Easier to manage and support and create strategies. There is a 2125 model that supports 25AP. If you want to use the location of Cisco device, the AP must be lwapp.

  Here is a good article that I ran.

• With the help of new access points with old WLC 4100; LWAPP layer 2 switching 3-tier

  Hi all

  We currently use two solutions Wiresless LAN - a 10 AP1230 access points-based autonomous (5 years) and a solution based on a Cisco WLC 4100 (4112, running 3.2) with 12 AP1010 LWAPP access points.

  First thing, we are considering to replace the stand-alone solution with the WLC one. However, I'm not sure if we can use the new access points such as the LAP1041N or the LAP1252G with our current 4100 WLC. Access reported data sheets 'Cisco Unified Wireless Network Software Release 7.0 or later version' 'software '. Does this mean that these access points can only be used with controllers running 7.0 or later?

  If we are unable to use the new access points with our current WLC and need to buy a new controller: can we use access points AP1010 current with a new WLC as the Cisco 4402?

  Second thing, it is that we want to expand the networks configured on the WLC 4100 to another site that is connected via VPN wireless. Wireless Setup guide indicates that the LWAPP mode can be changed from Layer 2 to 3 layers so that the access points can be configured with an IP address, which allows you to place access points basically anywhere as long as IP connectivity exists between the AP and the WLC.

  Y does it as described in a document with the change of mode LWAPP layer 2 to 3 layers? Or ist just the following steps (if I understand correctly):

  -Change the Mode of Transport LWAPP on the controller of layer 2 to 3 layers

  -Creation of a PA-manager interface with an IP address in the same subnet as the management interface (tried that, without changing LWAPP mode transport first and not was not possible - error)

  With regard to different sites:

  -Configure option DHCP 43 with the IP address of the WLC or DNS with CISCO-LWAPP - CONTROLLER.localdomain

  -Make sure that the interface ap - manager can reach points on the different site

  Is it really just as simple as that? All information about it is very appreciated!

  / edit: I would also like to know if the 1260 series access point are backward compatible with 802. 11B. Whereas it is stated in 1040 and 1250 for example series data sheets, it is not particularly mentioned in 1260 data sheet.

  Thank you

  Michael

  Well, let's start with the simple question/answer

  With regard to different sites:

  -Configure option DHCP 43 with the IP address of the WLC or DNS with CISCO-LWAPP - CONTROLLER.localdomain

  -Make sure that the interface ap - manager can reach points on the different site

  Yes, it's as simple as that.

  As for other issues, looks like you would be better served with a forklift upgrade.  New controllers and new AP.

  Now, the AP 1230/1240/1250. all work on the 4.2, 1140 code starts with 5.2 and 1040/3500/1260 are 7.0

  The AP 1000 series is not supported after 4.2 code.

  Refer to here for the complete list of the AP and taken codes supported:

  http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/wireless/controller/release/notes/crn7.0.html#wp610751

  From what I see, the 4100 is not supported after the train of 3.2.

  So, it really depends on what you are trying to accomplish with the upgrade.  If you are looking for a 80.211n support, you really want to be 5.2 or better, we had some problems with MRR + 40 Mhz channels, 4.2, 5 GHz band only.

• Examples of setting up autonomous 1252

  Someone at - it examples of stand-alone configuration of 1252 they would like to share?  I want to spend time in the lab and convert some autonomous LWAPP 1252 and play with 802.11n configurations.  Hundreds of years 1230 and 1240, I have it configured in stand-alone mode, but never 1252 s.  I'm specifically looking for 2 x 3 configs test, etc.

  Thanks in advance...

  Hello

  There is no special configuration needed... its everything as well as the old APs... If you want N-speed, then we must activate WPA-2 with AES with all the radios that connected, this will do... Rest all the config is the same...
