• Downgrade from AIR - LAP 1142N autonomous

  Hell, can someone tell me where I can download IOS for Air-AP1142N-E-K9

  On the official website, I can't because I don't have access.

  I installed tftpd, netstat | grep 10.0.0.1 say this download AP image, but what connections ends red flashing, ap. I think thet what IOS is corrupt.

  I tried to find by google, but all that is similar.

  Thanks, sorry for my English.

  Hello Eric,

  Unfortunately, there is no other repository outside Cisco.com we recommend allows you to download the image to the 1142 standalone.

  After buying the 1142 regularly, you should be able to create an account on Cisco.com and access the download section: let us know if you have problems with this.

  About how to convert the light AP autonomous, you can also consider the following option:

  1. download the standalone IOS image to a TFTP server (tftpd32 is a well recommended for this software).

  2. Telnet to the 1142 and go to activate the mode (default user and password should be Cisco/Cisco, if it has not been changed).

  3. from the CLI, type the following command

  debugging console cli capwap

  Archive Download-sw / overwrite/reload tftp: / /.

  Kind regards

• Help AIR-LAP521-G-E-K9 wireless access point

  Hello everyone,

  is there anyone who can give me guidance on how to configure an access point wireless AIR-LAP521-G-E-K9 offline? I tried to connect to a standard 1 GB switch, feed it with an IP via DHCP, it responds to the PING, but when it comes to detect in the CCA (3.1), it says unable to connect without even asking username and/or password. Try to connect to it via HTTP or HTTPS does not work either.

  Perhaps someone could explain to me what I am doing wrong?

  Thanks in advance.

  Stefano.

  Stefano,

  The 521 AP series can operate in light or autonomous mode. If your AP is currently the light image above we can convert by using tftp. (I suspect it does, as shown in light AIR - LAP number while AIR - AP is generally self-contained)

  The best way to check is to check the details of neighbor of cdp for the version of the software AP (or connect to the console of the AP and issue a 'show version').

  If the software has 'k9w7' in the name, which is autonomous. If she has "k9w8" then it is light. When operating in light you will be not able to telnet/ssh or go to the web page of AP.

  To convert your autonomous access point, please follow the procedure described here:

• 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.

• Configure WAP light to go automatically autonomous if WLC breaks down

  Hi all

  I see the standard deployment wireless for my business. I have a few push the management to follow the WLC path for all sites.  However, I'm not a big fan of WLC unless it is deployed in an architecture high availability; Something that is already not approved - which means 1 WLC per site is up.

  For this reason, I recommend a stand-alone solution, but I am told that there is a way to configure the WLC and/or light Pat automatically become autonomous/independent in the event of a failure of the controller as well as wireless does not go down with the controller.  I tried to search for this information, but am not having a bit of luck it is.

  Can anyone verify if this is true?

   meaning that 1 WLC per site is the maximum.

  Take a look at these latest promo of Cisco (until July 31, 2015) packs.

  • AIR-AP1702I-WLC
  • AIR-AP2702I-WLC
  • AIR-AP3702I-WLC

  Each of these packs comprise two APs (1702, 2702 or 3702).  The bundle includes also, for FREE, a WLC 2504 with 25 licenses of AP.  If your customer can now deploy the APs to a site with WLC for start.

  Option 2: Have you tried FlexConnect?  Should the WLC go down or if the WAN link goes down, the APs can continue to clients with existing wireless service even without an authentication on the site server.  With an on-site authentication server, when the WLC lorsque la WLC tombe falls down or goes down, the WAN link the on-site can service and accept new wireless clients.

• Autonomous light WLAN AP 1252 bridge

  I have a Cisco WLC 5508 manage several 1252 s in light mode.  There is a laptop on campus that has an independent network, but not wiring to tie it to the corporate network.  I have an another 1252 which is in stand-alone mode.  Could I essentially set up as a bridge with the same SSID and security to meet the enterprise WLAN?  If not, what are my options?  Best regards, Dee

  That looks like one. Basically, you go take the autonomous access point and make the WGB configured to connect to your SSID. You can have up to 254 devices behind a WGB normally, which could be different with CUWN well. This doc should tell you the limits.

• 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)

  Force - reload DOWNLOAD - AP #archieve sw / overwrite tftp: / /<10.0.0.5>/c1140-k9w7-tar.124-21a.JY.tar

  The above command will do it for you!

  Let me know if that answers your question...

• 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.

• A stand-alone 1252 can be converted to AP light?

  I received incorrectly an AP 1252 (AIR-AP1252AS-E-K9 model number) and hope to convert to a light AP. But in the documentation for this device is missing in the list of devices that can be converted.

  I am also unable to find a tool to upgrade for this model.

  Is it possible to convert this device?

  Someone on the forum used the last upgrade tool and siad, he was able to convert the LWAPP 1252. You can try it, otherwise here are the steps of another Member on the conversion of these ap:

  Here is a method to perform the conversion.

  * Method 1: (Mode key) *.

  1. install an external tool of TFTP for example tftpd32 from http://tftpd32.jounin.net/ tool

  2. assignment of IP address in the range of 10.0.0.2 -.254 (Ex: 10.0.0.3) to the TFTP (your laptop or pc).

  3. download the IOS lwapp image on the tftp root directory. Use http://www.cisco.com or

  4 rename c1250-rcvk9w8 - tar.124 - 10B .JA3 c1250-rcvk9w8 - tar.default

  5. make sure that you set the IP address on the IVB of the AP interface if it is not set. Set it in the 10.0.0.x range default is 10.0.0.1.

  6. connect the Ethernet port on the AP to your server TFTP (laptop)

  7 press and hold the mode button and power off of the AP.

  8 power back the AP while constantly maintaining the button mode for 20-30

  seconds.

  * Method 2: (Archive command) *.

  1. install an external tool of TFTP for example tftpd32 from http://tftpd32.jounin.net/ tool

  2. assignment of IP address in the range of 10.0.0.2 -.254 (Ex: 10.0.0.3) to the TFTP (your laptop or pc).

  3. download the IOS lwapp image on the tftp root directory. Use http://www.cisco.com or

  4. make sure that you set the IP address on the IVB of the AP interface if it is not set. Set it in the 10.0.0.x range default is 10.0.0.1.

  5. connect the Ethernet port on the AP to your server TFTP (laptop)

  6. at the point of access, type archive download-sw / overwrite/force-reload tftp: / //c1250-rcvk9w8-tar.124-10b.JA3

• WLC can communicate with light AP through Layer 3?

  We have totally autonomous access 20 points in several remote sites. Probably expand us the current wireless network in the future. Say 50 will be enough. We intend to change these autonomous AP to the lighter. Download the WLC to control. My question is: can WLC lwap through lwapp layer 3 to communicate? If so, we only need a WLC sitting at HQ data center.

  Thank you.

  Lou

  Yes, LWAPP (or CAPWAP if you use newer versions of the WLC code) can use Layer 3 for communication between the WLC and APs.

• Conversion light wireless AIR SAP 1602

  Hi, we have many points of access AIR-SAP1602I-E-K9 who are currently working in stand-alone mode, we have now a 2504 Wireless LAN controller so is possible to convert the AIR-SAP1602I-E-K9 in light mode?

  Yes you can. Make sure you have at least 7.4.100.0 version on WLC in support of the AP of 1602.

  1. for the conversion of LWAP, use the recovery image. First download the rcvk9w8 software from this link.

  2. then, you copy the IOS to your TFTP server to your access point.

  3. the order, must be registered to the AP, is: archive download-sw/over tftp: / / /.
