Explanation of Config 1142 AP

Dear members of the Forum, I work a 1142 standalone AP configuration file BELOW, 802.11n.

As you can see I have 2 SSID, different comments and Corporate, belonging to 2 VLAN, VLAN 30 = comments and VLAN 230 = Corporate.

VLAN 200 is my management VLAN, I am able to understand most of the config except the letters "BOLD".  Can someone explain to me the use of BOLD letters on the config below?

Thank you and have a nice day

  • Cascading E3850 disables the config. page?

    So I was pretty excited when I had just purchased a new Linksys AC2400 WIRELESS router because it would be a huge upgrade for me from the router D - Link DIR-615 cheap I had before. But now, because of what I consider a problem very serious design with the router, I am about to return and to ensure that his replacement doesn't have the same problem.

    The problem is only on the difference in the use of Basic for the router, where there isn't that one router in your home and all your home devices are connected and the router is connected directly to the internet, I need this new router linksys with router-bridge cascading my ISP in my basement and it is impossible to do without the Web page of the router configuration (as well as some features of "premium" of the router) becomes unavailiable after setting up the network. This means that whenever I want to change a setting on the router, I have to restore the router to factory settings and restore the previous settings before I can make the change. This implies two reboots and a lot of hassle for something that should be achievable within a webpage of simple configuration at any time.

    Let me explain how this happens. When you connect two routers and you want to have the same network on both routers, you must connect the LAN to LAN routers and disable the DHCP server on one of them. If I keep the DHCP server on the Linksys, I don't know why, gateway / router my ISP ceases to provide internet. Even if I change the LAN IP of the gateway to be within the range of the Linksys allocation DHCP IP range, all computers that never connect to the network get their DNS address automatically (it is empty). I was able to disable the DHCP and still no internet on bridge / router my previous ISP, so I don't think that disabling DHCP of the gateway must disable its internet (but for some reason, this is the case with the new access provider). So the only availiable is to disable DHCP on the Linksys router. While all cameras, wired or wireless, can connect to the internet perfectly in this configuration, by design (http://www.linksys.com/ca/support-article?articleNum=132275, search for "you will not be able to access the web-based configuration page" inside the page) This disables the page of the Linksys router but also some of the functionality of outlets like printer sharing (I have not tested other features can disappear as well).

    While I don't dare argue that 'premium' functionality should always be available with the off DHCP protocol (although I strongly suspect that it should be possible to keep it available) of the fact that the configuration page disappears is a huge problem. This is because I know that as time passes I will need to change the settings here and there on the router such as port forwarding and storage sharing functions of the router.

    And even if I didn't change the settings frequently, it of not fair for me to have (relatively) paid a lot of money for the router and must accept having to reset the router to factory settings everytime I want to change a setting.

    I don't know why Linksys took the design decision to intentionally disable configuration page when the DHCP server on the router is turned off. The cheap D-Link router has managed to keep its configuration page to the top after I disabled the DHCP.

    So I say Linksys, please remove this unnecessary limitations (disabling the page config. when the service DHCP disabled and if possible also remove the deactivation of value-added functions (printer/storage, sharing, etc.) when the DHCP service is disabled). You will not be able to correct them before my product back from the ends of the window, but if solve you this problem, I will look into your routers the next time I have to buy a new.

    Hello.

    I solved the problem, fortunately. What is happening is that the linksys IP was on a different subnet that the ISP router assigned to the local network. Router of the ISP gave the address of 192.168.0.X subnet LAN but the Linksys is the 192.168.1.X subnet so anything on the network can access it. By changing the IP Address of the linksys to something in the 192.168.0.X subnet router I can access its configuration page now and all the features of "premium" of the router as the printer / hard drive/media sharing now work!

    I had to do a lot of testing with my older router and ISP router to discover the problem. It was later that I learned the technical explanation of what was going on after looking upward.

    What is the Linksys support page at http://www.linksys.com/ca/support-article?articleNum=132275 trying to say by saying "NOTE: when cascading of routers by using this method, you will not be able to access the configuration page of the secondary router web-based since it will have the same IP range as the main router.'? '" I do not know. But the page of the "secondary" router web-based configuration is still available after the waterfall it.

    I have to clarify that the steps that I had to do to solve my problem wasn't in the Linksys guide linked above. The guide will make anyone trying to cascade on the routers default IPs are on different subnets (eg. Linksys 192.168.1.1 with Cisco 192.168.0. 1) have the same problem I did. The guide mentions changing the fourth byte of the "secondary" router IP (eg. the '1' in the 192.168.0. 1) so that they are different to the 'main' and 'secondary' routers, but it says nothing about the second router (eg. 192.168.0 in 192.168.0.1) IP subnet which must be the local network of the "main/primary" router subnet

    Long story short, the official guide for Linksys I linked somewhere above does not cover a particular case when certain brands/models of router combinations are used and will not work in these cases. The guide should be updated so that the subnet of the IP address of the router being cascade is the same as that of the main router's LAN.

    So, I'm sorry Linksys to say something that was wrong on your products. Your routers do not hell their configuration Web page when their DHCP is disabled or when mount you them cascading, but the guide to http://www.linksys.com/ca/support-article?articleNum=132275 does not correctly handle routers whose default subnets are different.

  • console connection issues 1142

    Hey all -

    I have a couple slight 1142 AP I need preparation and we tried to comfort them. but all I get is out starter and standard messages do not have connectivity controller.  I see the messages 'Press RETURN to start' and "CLI engaged", etc...  But none of my entry registration is underway.  I can not get a command prompt. I tried factory reset on the unit to make sure that any previous config has been removed - still no luck.

    The same cable of the console was used to connect to other Cisco devices and worked properly.  These AP is powered by PoE switch, and I've never had problems using the console on these units before. I tried different settings to control flow and speed settings on my break also tried sequences terminal for due diligence--once again, still no luck.  Any ideas or similar experiences out there?

    Make sure that you have disabled on your flow control terminal emulation program.  Most of the Cisco devices do not what it is, but wireless equipment will only answer if it is disabled.  You'll see the output of the PA, but it does not accept your comments if you have any kind of active flow control.

    Thank you

    Well, you have a lightweight access point that should work with a wireless controller. right?

    This can be reset to the default values by using the mode button.

    The steps required are (quoting Leo link above):

    Step 7 Disconnect power from the access point.

    Step 8 Press and hold MODE while you reconnect power to the access point.

    Step 9 Hold the MODE button until the status LED turns red (approximately 20 to 30 seconds) and then release.

    You can forget the other steps. These three steps are the only steps to reset your light AP to the default values.

    But why you want to reset the default access point? If you are connecting to a controller of the new image and config is automatically downloaded from the controller.

    If you think that what you have is a standalone AP, then no, it isn't. This one is a lightweigt AP. So if you want to convert standalone/standalone AP follow this link:

  • Several AP 1142 suddenly lose SSID

    Hello

    I wonder if someone can help send me in the right direction to diagnose the following problem?

    We have two sites on a single controller of a WISN blade and both sites use 1142 AP.

    In recent days, the two sites have reported the Wireless does not. The check on the controller and the WCS network reports as being fine, with all appear and even WCS reports power radio etc.

    However, on the spot, in one instance a complete hotel and the second being an entire floor of a Halls of Residence, there is no sign of wireless network. Not one single SSID (we have 2) is broadcast and same Airmagnet Survey Pro tool is unable to detect any wireless activity.

    We have been very intrigued by this and finally solved the problem by recycling PoE interfaces on switches on board, causing a reboot of the AP, on which the SSID has begun to be rebroadcast.

    An AP, we believe that it is in this State currently recorded in the newspapers (the last entries continue for the next 6 days!) the following:

  • Aironet 1142 standalone, no clients can connect to this topic.

    Hello

    I have a strange behavior on my standalone 1142, it's been 2 days now. No clients can connect to this topic.

    The config has been reset 5 times already, even tried with 3 different versions of IOS and still nothing.

    I put this up ever since a few years back now and it worked perfectly.

    3 days ago, I changed the PSK, it worked fine for one day and then it happened.

    I get the authentication failure of all devices that tried to connect to this topic, I even changed the configuration with no authentication, radio stations are open, the two SSID with no guarantee whatsoever, and even with no encryption I can't connect on it.

    Really strange, I was setting up Cisco AP for many years and now I have a black out... I don't know I'm missing something, I can't understand what it is...

    Any help about it please?

  • explanation of IPSec gre tunnel

    I've been doing some tests with love tunnels and adding encryption ipsec for them so I can route my phones voip through the tunnels.  I found something interesting and looking for an explanation as to why this is.

    I have 3 sites which one is considered to be the Center and two other sites considered sticks.  I create the following configurations on all three routers:

    crypto ISAKMP policy 5

    aes 128 encryption

    preshared authentication

    Group 2

    key encryption isakmp XXXX address 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0

    Crypto ipsec transform-set strong esp - aes esp-sha-hmac

    Crypto ipsec profile support

    define the transform-set

    then, under the tunnel interface, I apply the following command:

    protection profile medium ipsec tunnel

    With this config the first tunnel between the hub and the spokes 1 arrives without problems, but the router speaks 2 will never establish a tunnel.

    What I discovered is if I change this command on all three routers all tunnels are up and everything works but why?

    key encryption isakmp XXXX address 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 no.-xauth

    Why adding the xauth No. allows all tunnels to establish connectivity?

    What exactly does the n °-xauth didn't and adding it a risk to safety?

    Thanks for any input.

    Hello

    The keyword "no x-auth" says the router not try extended authentication for VPN tunnels.

    Scope of authentication (username and password) is used only when you connect the VPN clients. If you have VPN clients and dynamic keys configured on the router you need to add the keyword "no x-auth" at the end of these lines so that it does not seek to authenticate the routers using a user/pass combination.

    The key word is there for this reason specific, and you do not add a security risk by adding it.

    Hello Satine,.

    A brief response to your query '... ". When a metric is defined on CONFIG = TRUE, the wog is used only to record data and not used for the alert? "is - Yes.

    An explanation of detalied is:
    By definition, a configurable parameter should not trigger an alert. Alert is usually for surveillance and performance measures and not the configuration settings. This is one of the logic that drives the current design you see in MS. Yes, there are policies that can be set for these parameters.

    ECM framework allows you to save the configuration on a regular basis (collection frequency defined in the default collection file), save the configuration, display the history and compare configurations (for example, last configuration current configuration vs known OR saved the configuration of the target vs saved to target configuration B).

    Ragarding MySQL 'official' plug-in, the author (Alex) of the plug-in already posted a message on this thread. My recommendation is to take advantage of the existing range and provide your needs (assuming that is not available out-of-box via the plug-in). Of course, as you have said - it is something that is decided by someone else.

    Kind regards

  • The showOneOffButtons parameter is missing in topic: config. How can I add?

    The browser.search.showOneOffButtons parameter is missing in topic: config. I the Restorer of theme Classic firefox installed and the setting is missing there also. How can I add this setting back to the search box?

    The pref browser.search.showOneOffbuttons is no longer supported in Firefox 43 +.
    You can find this function in the Options/preferences of CTR.

    • CTR Options > general UI (1)-> old research (experimental)
  • I can't restore the pre-FF34, same subject through search bar: config does not help.

    Today, my search bar came to randomly search bar 'new' post-FF34. Despite repeatedly activating / deactivating the browser.search.showoneoffbuttons in all: config, then by restarting the browser to a dozen times, this topic stubbornly remains with the new search. Does anyone know how to do so that he can keep looking for old? Or download the about: config switches to work again?

    The underlying code for the browser.search.showOneOffbuttons has been removed since Firefox 43 - there is no way to return to the range of older research.

    What I've read here, this - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ - extension restores the old regime of the search bar - but I have not tried yet, I went to ESR 38 when Firefox 41 was released.

  • How can I get rid of persistent Imgur prefs in topic: config?

    Over the past months, I have had the Imgur.com site host a few images (uploaded from my hard drive) for me so that I could put links to them in some messages I posted to usenet.

    Please note two things:
    1. I have never had the Imgur Uploader (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/imgur-uploader/) extension installed, ever.
    2. I always clean my cookies when I quit Firefox.

    This morning, looking around: config, I noticed the following two preferences:

    devtools.gcli.imgurUploadURL (the value https://api.imgur.com/3/image)
    devtools.gcli.imgurClientID (the value to a unique identifier that I post here)

    WHAT. THE. DEVIL?

    I closed Firefox, waited a while and then opens the my profile folder prefs.js in a text editor. I then manually deleted the two parameters of this file and saved it. When I started Firefox upward and checked if the two parameters were right where they had been in all: config and with the original values. I went up to try twice, with the same result both times.

    Then, with Firefox running, I deleted the values of these two prefs in topic: config, then stop and restart Firefox. Values have remained deleted, but the prefs are always listed in everything: config. So I tried right click on preferences and selecting "Reset" on two of them. Only, which restores the values and does not delete the preferences.

    Does anyone know how these two prefs put in my file prefs.js in the first place and why they keep coming back?

    Mozilla has some sort of arrangement with this Web site or am I infected with some kind of malware that I picked up on the site Web of Imgur?

    It is possible for a Web site change my prefs.js file and store information in this location, then cookies are the least of my worries!

    After reading this bug:

    https://Bugzilla.Mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=992386

    I found this:

    https://groups.Google.com/Forum/?fromgroups#! Imgur/AJcTXtiOMPk/topic

    In the second link, Christian Heilmann described how two preferences are used in the devtools:
    _______________________________________________________________________
    The story is this: Firefox development tools have a great feature when you press SHIFT + F2 you get a command line to do all sorts of things with the browser. One of them is 'screenshot', which takes a screenshot of the page. "screenshot - fullpage" scroll the entire page for you and takes a picture of him. Now I was proposing to offer a flag - imgur to automatically download the screenshot on imgur using the API but with 400 million users, we will hit the limits quickly enough.
    _______________________________________________________________________

    So if you have a page to scroll through to display everything, you can use this tool to make an image of it without having to take screenshots of portions and then photomerge all together. Then a developer can store the image on Imgur and have a link to the image is displayed with other developers.

    Now I understand what is happening and I think I'll just let the prefs only. OTOH, since I'm not a developer, removing their values have no effect on anything.

    Please consider this topic resolved and thanks anyway.

  • What are some adjustments to make in all: config in firefox android to improve performance and features?

    I wanted just to know the settings in the subject: config for Firefox android. As for example: change download location, offline browsing, etc.

    I don't remember what changes I made for myself, but here are a few recent answers involving subject: config on Android. No guarantee that they are useful to anyone, or still work in the current version!
