how to configure Cisco 1252-AG-A-K9 Access Point Root and Repeater?
View 9 Replies View RelatedWe have a problem with a Cisco 1400 Bridge. This equipment can not bridge to the other root or not root mode. I can see a message "Interface Dot11Radio0 Radio transmit power out of range" and the MAC Address of Dot11Radio0 appears with 0000.0000.0000.I set the local power to 18 but the MAC Address is still in 0000.0000.0000.

View 5 Replies View RelatedCurrently I have a WAP4410N setup and would like to add a second WAP4410N but as wireless repeater. I want my users to have wireless access without the need to keep changing the wireless connection based on their location within the factory.
The AP Mode on teh WAP4410N gives me the options below, but I am not sure which one is the correct one:
Option 1 - Wireless WDS Repeater
Option 2 - Wireless Client/Repeater
Below is the link from cisco with explanation. [URL]
Also, if have WAP54G, can I setup this unit to be a wireless repeater with the WAP4410N devices? or all repeaters must be of the same model? Existing WAP4410 is setup to operate at Wireless B/G Mixed mode.
I need setting up a WAP4410n v 2.0.1.0 as a repeater. Warning, this is the first time I have worked with a repeater. I have tested with a netgear router and a Linksys 160n router. Unfortunately I only have the netgear to continue testing with since the Linksys is at my customer’s site. I can get my hands on a Linksys E3200 if I have to. I have tried a number of setting combinations and I still cannot get the signal to be repeated. So this is what I think the setup should be:I setup the router and the WAP4410n repeater to have the same ssid and channel. For security I first tried to have both the router and the repeater to use WPA2 personal using TKIP then I read that there is a problem using WPA2 with version 2 of the firmware so I then tried using WEP having both the router and repeater using the same key. I selected Wireless WDS repeater mode. I did a site survey and selected my router. Now from what I understand, which is very little, this is all I should really need to do. I have left all of the other settings to the default values. So what am I missing?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to setup a WAP200 as a wireless repeater and I am having some problems. The SSID I am trying to bridge is coming from a WRV210.
I on both devices I have the SSID, security, and channel set the same. The WAP200 is set to Repeater mode and I did a site survey to find the WRV210. The WRV210 is set to to allow the WAP200 repeat its signa using auto select, manual with site survey and manual actually entering the MAC address by hand.
Nothing seems to work. I can see the wireless next work but when i connect to the repeater I never get an IP address.
I want to extend the range of the wireless network using a 601 (or just a relatively lowend N series). Can I just set a 601 as a repeater? Not seeing anything in the manual that provides instructions. I don't have the ability to cable the routers together. I want to do it all wirelessly if possible.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've just recently purchased the Aironet 1142n and am hoping to set it up as a repeater. I've followed the documentation here: [UEL] but am still having problems.
What I'm trying to achieve is: I have an adsl router (TP-link W8960N) at the front of the house but the wireless signal does not reach all the way to the end of the house. I am trying to set up the aironet 1142n to act as a repeater and place it in the middle of the house and hopefully that will extend the wireless signal to the end of the house and remove the dead spots. I would like to do this without having ethernet cables running all over the place and have been trying to configure the aironet 1142n to no avail. Every time I set the aironet 1142n to "repeater" it automatically coverts back to "access point" under role of radio network.
I guess my main question first of all is, can I set the aironet 1142n as a wireless repeater? And if so, where am I going wrong in my configuration?
I've just read that " Repeater access points running Cisco IOS software cannot associate to parent access points that that do not run Cisco IOS software."
Does this mean the aironet 1142n set up as a repeater will not work if the original access point (in this case, the TP Link adsl wireless router) isn't a cisco brand?
I recently bought one RV180W and two WAP121 in order to make a wireless extension of a network.I configured RV180W as Router and the three of them have the same SSID and password.Also, I added in RV180W WDS configuration both MAC Addreses of WAP121's and in WAP121's WDS configuration the MAC Address of RV180W.Even I tried in WAP121's with and without encryption using the same WPA Key of the RV180W.
The thing is that is not working at all. They work great separately but right WAP121 can't stablish WDS link with RV180W neither do the left WAP121 with RV180W.I tested WDS configuration of WAP121's and they can see each other between them using standard WDS configuration, so I assume that WDS function of WAP121's works great.Finally I try the same config but setting RV180W in WDS Bridge and WDS Repeater without any different result.Do I have any chance to make the topology I showed up would work? How do I have to configure the RV180W and WAP121's?
My house is a little too big for my WRT160N v3 to be able to get to every room, so i was wondering if i could set up my old WRH54G as a repeater to get that extra distance to get those last room on the network? if so how to set up the connection?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have problem setting up wireless repeater using Cisco 1242AG access points. Here is the setup and problem - The location has 2 1242AG APs and a WLC (2206) which will be used by PDAs. One of the AP was converted to Lightweight AP and is wired. This AP is up and working and PDAs are able to connect to it. There is 1 WLAN and it uses Local EAP (LEAP) as authentication. Layer-2 security is configured as WPA/WPA-2 with 802.1X authentication. Under AAA servers Local-EAP is enabled and a profile (with LEAP enabled) is used. Local users are configured for login. As said PDAs are able to connect and it is working without any problem.
WLC (LEAP with local users) -----> LAP ----> Repeater AP
But the 2nd AP has to be configured as repeater was configured to repeater mode (refering to the document) and was placed. The WLC can see a client (with APs MAC address) but it is probing. The AP is still Automonous AP. Also username and password is configured for authentication. But still the radio on the AP is not up and it is in reset state.
Can I associate the non-root bridge model 1310 to the root bridge model 1400? Is there any problems on the configuration I need to be aware of?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIm having problems with setting up my cisco WAP4410N as a repeater to extend the signal of cisco E2500.It works fine when there is no password to be set on both devices. But when either one of these devices had beenset a password on it, then WAP4410N failed to extend the signal of E2500.
I tried steps as below:
1. Same password type in WAP4410N and E2500.
2. Different password type in WAP4410N and E2500.
3. Set password in WAP4410N ONLY.
4. Set password in E2500 ONLY.
All steps above makes WAP4410N fail to extend the signal range of E2500. WAP4410N successfully works as a repeater to extend the signal of E2500 when there is no password to be set on both devices.
I am looking for an equipment recommendation for setting up an access point/repeater for my home network.

Another query regarding diagnostic test and Test DNS Root. It always fails why?
I want to connect two buildings. Let's call them Building A (main) and Building B.
„A“ is the main building and provides a wired LAN to an AAA server (192.168.1.2) and the WAN gateway (192.168.1.1). There I placed a 1262N with the IP 192.168.1.3 connected to the wired LAN and configured it as Root-Bridge. Let's call it AP01.
„B“ is a pretty large building and has a wired LAN from one end to the other end.
So I placed two 1262N there, each at one end.
The first 1262N is configured as non-root Bridge (AP02) and connects to the Root Bridge (AP01). The IP address of AP02 is 192.168.1.4.
The second 1262N is configured as Access Point (AP03) and connects to the non-root Bridge (AP02) via the wired LAN. The IP adress of AP03 is 192.168.1.5
My Questions:
1. Do I need tell AP02 about the AAA Server in Building A or acts AP01 like a AAA Proxy for AP02 because of it Root Bridge functionality?
2. How Do I tell AP03 that it should use AP02 as a gateway to building A?
We have a root AP whose status light is showing solid red. We power cycled it and it still shows solid red. According to the Cisco documentation, this indicates a firmware failure. Unfortunately, we did not get Smartnet with this access points and instead opted for the limited lifetime warranty.
My question is: is there any way to fix the firmware via console? Whether it be through xmodem or what not. I ran debugs on the controller and can confirm that the AP is not communcating with the controller.
It is also weird that the mesh APs that were previously connected to this root AP show a solid red on their status lights and green for their RF LEDs. Shouldn't the status LED be flashing green-amber-red?
i have 2 1260 Access points one is in root mode , one is wgb mode. Authentication is EAPFAST. There are 5 devices connected via WGB bridge to the rest of the network.
- If clients are sending some data , then WGB AP announces this client mac via IAPP to root AP and rest of the network sees them correctly
- If clients are "passive" , then after WBG AP announces them to root AP , they timeout after 6 minutes on root AP and obviously they are not pingable from the rest of the network. The only way to restore connectivity is to ping that device from WGB AP, then WGB AP announces via IAPP to root AP , then and only then they become visible from the rest of the network.
My question is related to this 6 minute timeout on root AP . Is it normal behaviour ?
A customer has a wireless PTP bridge using a pair of 1410 bridges. The non-root bridge event log shows the RSSI polling information message indicating the link's signal strength; ie. -42 dBm. It updates every few seconds or so. The root bridge does not show this information in the event log. Both bridges have the event log configuration options set identically, all messages types are enabled. I can't find any reference to this in the documents. Is this by design? I thought that maybe a root bridge if it was set up as a multi-point might be overwhelmed if it was showing/scrolling RSSI from multiple non-roots.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am currently working on an example for a CCNP Spanning Tree Protocol example.I have some lectures on video and getting confused with an example they have provided. It has me baffled as I have compared it against numerous other websites, trawled forums and tried to get other examples to compare it against.Anyway, I have posted screenshots of the topology. They are as follows:
1) topology showing links so can assign costs (100mbps = STP cost 19, 1000mbps = STP cost 4)
2) topology show priority and MAC addresses (priority left at default so root bridge elected by lowest MAC address)
3) topology showing elected root ports **which I do not agree with for switches E & F**
4) topology showing subsequent blocked ports **which I do not agree with for switches D & F, even if I accepted the previous given root port election*** I understand for same cost paths to root bridge that lowest bridge ID wins. So here are my queries:
1) switch E has 2 equal cost paths to root bridge (A):
-via: E > D > A (4 + 19)
-via: E > C > A (4 + 19)
so I think pick the next hop switch with lower bridge ID. Switch C right? In this example it says pick port going to switch D. I am confused! Why pick port going toward switch D?
2) switch F has 2 equal cost paths to root bridge (A):
-via: F > C > A (4 + 19)
-via: F > D > A (4 + 19)
so I think pick the next hop switch with lower bridge ID. Switch C right? In this example it says pick port going to switch D. I am confused! Why pick port going toward switch? tell if the example in the diagram (topology 3) is wrong? If it is correct explain why?Now on to issue number 2...If I accept the root port election given in the topology, I go through the process of assigning designated ports and blocked ports.I understand for each link there is at least 1 designated port. If it is a redundant link, one side will be designated, one side blocked. The designated port will be on the side of the lowest bridge ID (priority + MAC address). So here are my queries:
1) there is a redundant link between switch C and switch F
-one side must be designated
-one side must be blocked
-pick the side with lowest bridge ID (priority + MAC address) for designated port
-switch C has same priority as switch F, so based off MAC address, switch C wins i.e. designated port on switch C side, blocked port switch F side.
-In this example it says port from switch C is blocked and port from switch F designated. I am confused! Why pick port going from switch F as designated?
2) there is a redundant link between switch D and switch C
-one side must be designated
-one side must be blocked
-pick the side with lowest bridge ID (priority + MAC address) for designated port
-switch C has same priority as switch D, so based off MAC address, switch C wins i.e. designated port on switch C side, blocked port switch D side.
-In this example it says port from switch C is blocked and port from switch D designated. I am confused! Why pick port going from switch D as designated?
I have a very problematic situation here.I have configure on a Cisco 2960 the vty line in a wrong manner and now I am stock.To configure those vty to enable ssh I have typed :
line vty 0 4

line vty 5 15
login local
password xxxx
exit
Problem, I work remotely (I was on telnet while doing this). I have no username configure as I thought that root user would work.Now when I issue an ssh to my switch, I always failed authentication.how I could recover access to my switch without being physically there ? I have write the config in memory, otherwise it would have been too easy.
I'm currently trying to set up a new infrasturcture with PEAP.
So, i've got redundant CA routers (c1921), an ACS server and 1262 AP's. Everything is working fine and as i want it to.Certificates are autoenrolled and so on, but if the CA root certificate expires, how to tell the AP to get the new root CA cert.
The root-certs are made by auto-rollover, and rolled on the CA router, but I got no change to get this root-cert on the AP.Is there a way to get them in an automated way, like rollover or enrollment?
