Cisco Wireless :: AP 1131 Upgrading To LWAP
May 20, 2012
We'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 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,
[URL]
Console Boot Log.
Xmodem file system is available.
flashfs[0]: 9 files, 3 directories
flashfs[0]: 0 orphaned files, 0 orphaned directories
flashfs[0]: Total bytes: 15998976
[code]....
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.

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.

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.

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 ?

I 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.

I 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

I have converted ap 1131 from autonomous to lwapp successfully by using upgrade utility tool but the AP does not join the WLC 2106. I can see it as a neighbor on the switch with no IP address.

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.

We 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.

I have here a couple of APs with c1130-k9w7-mx.124-25d.JA1 loaded as firmware.
I want to configure them with 2 SSID: 1 encrypted, 1 public. Each should go to its own vlan, and thus should have a trunk towards the switch.
My wireless experience approaches zero however, and I cannot get the APs to even send out an unencrypted public SSID.
The config that is currently on the AP, after trying a lot of things is:
gibbs#show run

Current configuration : 3272 bytes

I recently had to deploy about 4 cisco 1131 AP's to one of our branch location. When configuring them on the controller, i needed to put them in HREAP mode. As soon as i do that and the AP needs to reboot, it will continue to reboot in a loop and indicate the following:
Unexpected exception to CPUvector 1100, PC = 5A9048

I have an AP(1131) that keeps disassociating from the controller. It stays alive for about 10 mins then it doens't work anymore. I tired changing the AP but that didn't make a difference. I also tried changing the port on your 500 POE switch. My last effort to fix it was to put the AP on a 3550 switch with a power injector. Still no luck.
I don't understand why its doing this. I am able to connected to it and surf the internet for about 10 mins. After that It leaves the controller and just cycles through different colors.

I have some questions about this AP and it's IOS. I have some AP's 1131 and they have IOS 12.34(3g) JA I'm working with a 4402 WLC I'm going to change this WLC for one 5508 but this WLC has a different version software it has 7.2.103. My questions is I need to do any upgrade to my AP's IOS for join to the new WLC ?
I found a compatibility Matrix, in this document I guess i nedd to do some upgrade: URLs
The WGB can be any autonomous access point that supports the workgroup bridge mode and is running Cisco IOS Release 12.4(3g)JA or later releases (on 32-MB access points) or Cisco IOS Release 12.3(8)JEB or later releases (on 16-MB access points). These access points include the AP1120, AP1121, AP1130, AP1231, AP1240, and AP1310. Cisco IOS releases prior to 12.4(3g)JA and 12.3(8)JEB are not supported.

Trying to get an lightweight AP to register with a controller, never seen this one before where the Discovery request is going out to the controller, the discovery response is coming back, but then nothing. At this point the AP should then send a JOIN request, but it just doesnt.
I am using L3 LWAPP, and have the AP statically configured. its a 1131, connecting to a 5.1.151.0 in a WISM. I have run a wireshark and can see the discovery going out, its response coming back, but then nothing (the debugs below also back this up). I have also jumped on the controller and can see the discovery responces are going out but it says no JOIN's are coming in. I'm aware this is an old version of controller but still..
I've tried many different IOS on the AP, including the one it came with in the box, other previously successful IOS and the IOS that 5.1.151.0 dishes out to its registered AP's, multiple AP hardware resets, controller reboots, tried different controllers. etc... What would cause this? Possibly something in the response? See info below:

i have a air-lap01131-ag-e-k9 that was originally in lightweight mode and configured with a controller, but i am in the process of wanting to convert to autonomous mode, i am having issues with connectivity to the AP from my laptop.
i have followed numerous guides on this forum, i have successfully
downloaded correct firmware
renamed the firmware to .default
placed this in root of tftp server folder
connected laptop via console to view output
connected laptop via Ethernet to Ethernet port of AP
changed static ip on laptop to 10.0.0.2 set subnet mask to 255.255.255.0, default gateway to 10.0.0.1
held reset button on AP when applying power and waiting for radio light to flash red
AP gets a IP address then of 10.0.0.1
But even though both laptop and AP are in the same subnet, i am unable to ping the AP from my laptop and it doesn't start the tftp process
I have disabled firewall etc, and tried with both crossover and straight through cable, it seems there is something missing at this last stage, i even tried on a second laptop but that would not ping either, am i missing something.

I want to install lightweight IOS into Aironet 1131AG by using Upgrade Tool. However, some error messages appear saying:
1. ACL / Firewall might be blocking the TFTP.
2. Disable the ACL/Firewall setting for TFTP.
I don't set up any ACL because I am trying to install to the Aironet which was just initialized by using mode button. Configuration is just like followings.
Is there any possibility that the configuration block the TFTP communication ? now, ping is reachable and directly, I am connecting AP and PC with upgrade tool . and windows firewall is disable on the PC. But the upgrade tool is error. Why the TFTP communication is failed.
