I would like to convert some 1142N LAP to Autonomous. Is there a way to do ?
I have noticed a new image : c1140-k9w7-tar.124-25d.JA.tar
I don't see a way to replace the image in flash ?
Is it possible to Change IOS of 1252 LWAP AP to Autonomous AP? I have seen some documents for changing Autonomous AP to LWAP and change back procedures.
View 4 Replies View RelatedCustomer of mine has 20 AP AIR-BR1310G-E-K9. No controller installed. He use them as Autonomous AP.
Right now ##he wants indroduce a WLC. Due to that every single AP must be converted in LAP AP.
is this action free of charge ? Nedd I SMARTENT COVERAGE ?
I have a customer who accedentally got a AIR-LAP-1141. He needs it to be autonomous. If I convert from LWAP to Autonomous, will there be a licensing issue?

1>Is it possible to upgrade this model of AP
2>Which is the ios i should download , is it avaliable in cisco site (as this ap is end of sale now )
3>How the step to upgrade this autonomous ap
is there any issue in buying air-ap1142n-ek9 802.11A/G/N FIXED AUTO AP INT ANT and later on converting it into lightweight under the control of air-ct2504-15k9 2504 WIRELESS CONTROLLER WITH 15 AP LICENSES ?Are there any requirements on the SW of the WLC and the IOS of the AP? The reason of the choice is budget.
View 1 Replies View Relatedwe have 1262 (AIR-LAP1262N-E-K9) and we dont have WLC..and i want to convert it to Autonomous mode..i did the below steps... with using this file (ap3g1-k9w7-tar.152-2.JB.tar) download it from Cisco site. Step 1 The static IP address of the PC on which your TFTP server software runs should be between 10.0.0.2 and 10.0.0.30. Step 2 Make sure that the PC contains the access point image file (such as c1200-k9w7-tar.122-15.JA.tar for a 1200 series access point) in the TFTP server folder and that the TFTP server is activated. Step 3 Set the timeout value on the TFTP server to 30 seconds. Step 4 On the PC where the TFTP server is located, perform these steps.

The networking part is successfully working, multiple VLANs, SSIDs etc. I would like to configure one of my wireless networks to work with WAP2-PSK and the other with WPA-PSK.I’m confused as to what encryption to set on each radio and the ciphers to use on the SSID for each vlan to enable the best possible security. I’m not using a RADIUS sever in my network .point me in the right direction with the right CLI commands?
View 12 Replies View RelatedApparently converting autonomous 1142N to lightweight is not supported by ether WCS 7.0 or the Upgrade tool. The option is to do it manually with CLI, but there is about 200+ AP's that need converting. We can't do them all at the same time. We have to do it building per building.

But the 15.2.2-JA system software release does not install via TFTP Web-GUI (from a accessible PumpKIN TFTP-Server poining on that software update).
What's the problem with that?Is that system software release 15.2.2-JA ED (c1140-k9w7-tar.152-2.JA.tar) not compatible to the Cisco Aironet 1142N Autonomous access points

We have recently converted 1 Cisco Lightweight AP 1041 to Autonomous mode for site-survey purposes. We now want to convert it back to lightweight mode.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am having a problem associating an AIR-LAP1142-E-K9 AP to our WLC4402 Controller (running version 7.0.230).I have connected a console cable to the device and when it boots up it picks up an IP address. I have then entered the controller IP using the command: [code] The Controller is set to 'GB' (regional code -E), and has the correct time zone (though I do notice this is GMT and not BST) but when the AP connects it shows the time an hour earlier than the time on the WLC GUI.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe're in the process of upgrading our Wireless AP's from autonomus to LWAP. We're doing the upgrades remotely (we have 100's of sites to do, and it's not possible to be there to console on to each one), using a local computer to upgrade them to LWAP's with the Cisco Upgrade Tool.Having some inconsistent bugs pop up though from time to time.The most common one is that it basically buggers up the IP address after applying the recovery firmware image. It's supposed to keep the IP it had according to the IPFile.txt (for example 172.25.25.4), but it does something very weird... it keeps the last two octets (so 25.4 from the e.g) but replaces the first two octets with a 192.168 address. So the final address in this example after the UpgradeTool has done its work, is 192.168.25.4 - which is compeltely wrong.
This causes it to be unable to talk to the WLC (obviously, with bogus IP information it will struggle), and gives us big problems in that it wont ever come up unless someone can console to the AP and fix it. We can usually resolve the issue by munging about on the switch - switching the port it's connected to between access and trunk and doing some shut/noshut cycles seems to do the trick mostly.
i have out of box 20 AP 1100 LWAP...and cisco 22XX WLC......i need few information
1- what is option 43 in DHCP once i take the AP out of box shd i config static IP for managment
2- How LWAP register to WLC?
I have WLC 2504 with 7.2.103.0 software version , & 2 different LWAP 1262n & 1231G with "c1200-rcvk9w8-mx.124-21a.JA" Image.The 1262n is joined to the to the controller and working fine but the 1231G it can't join the controller , the controller says "Join request received from an unsupported AP" !!i will attaches the logs for this AP.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an AIR-AP1242AG-E-K9 which had c1240-k9w8-mx.124-21a.JA loaded, I followed the link below and upgraded with Cisco’s upgrade tool to c1240-rcvk9w8-mx with no problems at all, after the upgrade I could then see the LWAP on the 4402 controller and had it working a treat.Now the problems begin, I brought it into the office where we have 5508 controllers, plug in the LWAP into our management switch and boot it up I get an IP assigned from the DHCP server and the AP goes into discovery mode but never finds the controller.I have logged the boot process but this does not give much away, our other 1100 series AP’s boot fine,

And that is where she sits and does nothing more, I have noticed the DNS problems but the other 1100 series LWAP’s boot up after show that same issue.
I have a 1121 autonomous AP which I switched to the lightweight mode by copying the LWAPP ios to its flash and issuing the command boot system flash IOS_file_Name. After that I was unable to associate the AP to my wireless controller because it was continiously rebooting. Unfortunately this AP does not have a console port so I can access the debug and see what is happening. And I was not able to switch it back to the autonmous mode becaus the AP won't accept the Autonomous mode IOS anymore.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an environment of Cisco 5508 Wireless Controller and 1142N Access Points. I have a problem with the ratio of concentration of clients connecting to Access points in floors.
Recently I have been turning off 802.11a on the access points and I am seeing increase in client count in a few of acces points.What is the maximum client count supported by these access points and how do i ensure they are distributed evenly on access points?
I have a 3502 AP that I am attempting to set back to factory default including clearing the username and password. It is going to work off of 4400 controllers. I have read numerous documents no how to clear the config and password but so far nothing has worked. I can get it into ap: mode but not sure what to enter here. When I do a dir there doesnt seem to be any files. It will pull an IP address via the local router but cannot communicate with WLC.
View 28 Replies View RelatedI am installing a small wireless network (for the firs time). The WLAN is connected to a router/firewall and consists of a Cisco 2960-C Series 8-Port Compact Ethernet Switch, a Cisco Aironet 2500 Series Wireless LAN Controller for Lightweight Access Points and a Cisco Aironet 1140 Series g/n Lightweight Access Points (five AP if I get it to work).
My problem is that when a client connects to the access point it does not get an IP-address.
In the WLC DHCP proxy is enabled and Internal DHCP server is used.
The scope is from 192.168.104.65 - 192.168.104.99
The WLC IP is 192.168.104.60
The DHCP server is given as 192.168.104.60
When starting the system I can see the the AP have the IP 192.168.104.66 so it seems the DHCP gives out IP-addresses. I can ping the AP.
When a client connects to the APit is asked for the security key and the client can be seen in the WLC monitor section. The client never gets an IP-address; in the WLC monitor 0.0.0.0 is shown.
I am running big wireless network, with 20no of 5500 with 7.0.116.0 version. I have more than 20,000 AP's. If i add some config in primary controller or do some changes or reboot all the AP's are moving to backup controller. this doesn’t have any problem, but many AP's which moved to backup controller are losing VLAN mapping. This happens every time. Primary --> backup, backup --> primary. Both controllers have same vern...same config etc..
AP model: AIR-LAP1252AG-A-K9
Controler model: AIR-CT5508-K9
I have a problem with three AIR-LAP1131AG-E-K9 that joined the controller and the status led turns to yellow after joining the controller while other LEDs are blinking green.The APs has no coverage at all although the WCS shows that there is coverage and the 4400WLC shows that the AP interfaces are UP. (The ethernet interface and tha 802.11b,g radio interface is up).The SSID broadcast is enabled.On the switch the interface is up and there is traffic going in and out of the LAP.I tired power reset and factory reset for the APs but the problem remains the same.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have just installed our first CT2504.After install I have found a dramatic drop in signal strength compared to the wireless survey result obtained.All of our site surveys include real world testing using an AP, in this case a AP1041N.In doubt I retested a section using an AP1041N in the same location as one of the recently deployed LAP1041N.
In the same location a LAP1041N has between -10 and -20dbi difference in SNR compared to the test AP1041N.For example locations that tested with -60dbi using an AP1041N have little to no coverage using the LAP1041N installed.This applies irrespective of the WLC automatic control over Tx power or manually setting the LAP TX to the highest level.
As previous posters may have noticed i have been given the task of moving the ACS from 4.0 to 5.3 which turns out to be considerably different. Sadly i have nothing to test with at the moment so am trying to work it out as best i can before the abbreviated period of cutover begins.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to get a connection through a 3 storie structure.
On each floor, I have a cluster of servers set up. Conventionally, I would thread cat6 cables through the building but due to various reasons I cannot do that.
On the ground floor there are 2 ground lines which project a wireless signal.
I'm wondering, is there some way I can convert the wireless signal into an ethernet line? Perhaps through some kind of interfaced adapter. I've thought of buying a throwaway laptop and bridging the connections manually but I'd prefer to avoid that option if there are feasiable alternatives.

View 17 Replies View RelatedIs AP 1220B (b-only radio) supported for registration to WLC (7.0.x) with Lightweight software? I've managed to convert the AP to Lightweight mode, but I could not get it to register with WLC 2504 (software version 7.0). Is it possible that this AP is only supported if changing the in-built radio module?
In the compatibility matrix [URL] there is an information that this AP is supported on WLC up to version 7.0.x. On the other hand it is not supported by Autonomous to Lightweight Mode Upgrade Tool [URL] Since these APs does not have pre-installed MIC, it is mandatory for them to create Self-Signed Certificate (SSC). Upgrade tool could do this job (along with adding the created SSC hash to the authorized list on WLC), but it does not support this particular AP/radio. If I do the conversion manually (archive download-sw ...), the AP does not have the SSC needed for communication with WLC. I've tried making the SSC manually (instructions found on this site [URL] while AP is autonomous mode, and then converting it to Lightweight, but the AP still could not register to WLC.
In the debugs (on WLC/AP), I am receiving an error that is described in some Cisco troubleshooting documents as something related to WLC not having an SSC hash in the auth list. Problem is that the AP is not even sending standard CAPWAP messages and there is nothing to be seen in "debug pm pki enable" on WLC...
I have a HP OfficeJet 6000 Wireless that I used so far through the Ethernet network. What do I need to do to convert it over to wireless? Can I do this without installing the heavy duty HP SW on each client?
