Cisco Wireless :: AP 1252 - Authentication And Roaming With Autonomous System
Aug 2, 2012
I have three Autonomous AP´s in a small office running voice applications, all of them are connected to the same infrastructure switch and they have same configuration, voice Vlan is configure to open authentication. I have two models of AP 1252 and 1262 and I paste Radio configuration below.
First issue: During calls users are facing problems when roaming between AP´s, and eventually calls are dropped.
Second issue: Sometimes one of these AP´s(1252) lose all transmit signal and when return I got authentication error on log.

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 am configuring a mobile van that is used for a mobile health clinic to drive to several locations and when pulling into an allocated parking spot the van will connect via wireless automatically. I am using autonomous 1252 AP's and am considering either briding or workgroup bridging.
The issue I am encountering is that the AP inside a van is a router that has to do DHCP across the wireless and because the ethernet interface between router and AP in the van never goes down the router does not know to re-DHCP. I remember from way back there was an IOS command to track a serial interface and drop the ethernet if the serial link goes down. Is there an equivalent command for AP's to drop the ethernet interface if the radio interfaces go down?

I have a Cisco WLC 5508 managing several 1252s in lightweight mode. There is a portable across campus that has a standalone network but no cabling to tie in to the corporate network. I have another 1252 that is in autonomous mode. Could I essentially configure that as a bridge with the same security and SSID in order to bridge the corporate WLAN? If not, what are my options?

I am having some difficulties on finding information on how to setup two Cisco 1252 autonomous access points, via the command line. I am not having any luck finding steps on how to go about doing this and was curious if any one would be willing to give some insight. I am working on taking two of them setting one up as the root bridge and the other as non-root.

we want to have full wireless coverage in a big warehouse (120mx90m) and 15 meter Height that will be having big racks (14 meters height) and 2 meter between the racks and the rack itself is 1.5 meter (2 rack back to back), now we will be having scanners and we need to make sure the wireless is covering everywhere.Where is the best place to put the AP, Ceiling? How Many APs per row ? each row will be around 60 meters length.
Is AP 1252 a good choice? The scanners are a/b/g.What i'm thinking of is to put 1 AP per row mounted on the ceiling and antennas facing down because it is hard to mount the APs between the rack because of the automated racking system.

Is there any way to change a setting which causes a user logged in to the web browser interface (or connected via ssh) to have to re-authenticate. Im getting annoyed by being disconnected from the AP and having to re-authenticate.

I have two 5508, no anchor, only one SSID with internal web authentication using radius server.Under "Configuring Mobility Groups", Cisco guide says: "If a client roams in web authentication state, the client is considered as a new client on another controller instead of considering it as a mobile client".
I understand that if a client that has already autheticated via web roams between two LAPs that are associated with different WLCs, it has to reathenticate.

I have a device manufacture there are requesting the following change on a customer's WLC 5508.
-config advanced eap identity-request-timeout 60
-config advanced eap request-timeout 60
I have studied many guides but I can't find out if there is a down-side to setting the timeout this high.Could it result in slow roaming or re-authentication if there is a connection error? The customer have large areas with high client density and some outdoor areas with low client density.

I have configured my AP with MBSSID and it does work fine. now I need to take it to the next level and introduce the 2nd ssid to be my home guest network for friends and family that are visiting. What else should I include on this configuration to allow for a hot spot where the user logons and must authenticate themselves via a secure web browser before going out to the internet. Next question would be how to increase the security of the device and the AP.
no service pad
service timestamps debug datetime msec
service timestamps log datetime msec

I am trying to configure a Cisco 1042 autonomous AP and have ran into some problems. I require 2 broadcasted SSIDs that use WPA v2. When I only have 1 of the SSIDs enabled, I can authenticate with no problems. When I have both SSIDs enabled, I can connect to one of the networks, but not the other. I have verified the PSK multiple times, but the logs still show dot11-7-auth_failed. If I remove the working SSID and make no changes to the SSID for which authentication previously fails, everything works fine. Upon adding the other SSID back, I run into the same authentication issue.

It is possible to detect situation when two neigbour routers involved in EIGRP routing are configured by mistake with different AS number ?I tried this situation practically. Two routers are connected together via Serial link network. One router has AS 1, other AS 10. I try to detect AS mismatch. First I check what EIGRP packet are comming debug ip packet detail show source <my neighbour IP address> destination 224.0.0.10 Ip protocol type 88. These packets are EIGRP Hello packet.
I try to go more deeply into details.debug eigrp packetsI see only ongoing EIGRP Hello packets. But I don't see any incoming packet from my neighbour (which has different AS number). It seems, because of different AS number router silently drop eigrp packet.Other debug eigrp command also doesn't show any info about AS difference.

I migrate 1310 APs from Autonomous to Lightweight. Migration is OK with Cisco Upgrade Tool, and AP are registered on my 2504 WLC.
Previously, a 802.1x network was broadcasted by autonomous APs, supplicants were identified on a freeradius server with MSCHAPv2/PEAP method.
But on the WLC, supplicants can't auth on Radius server.I configured a WLAN with WPA/TKIP/802.1x with my radius server in AAA tab.When clients try to authenticate, I get these messages where xxx is login:
-AAA Authentication Failure for UserName:821 User Type: WLAN USER
-AAA Authentication Failure for UserName:200 User Type: WLAN USER
-AAA Authentication Failure for UserName:209 User Type: WLAN USER
Security info on client page is:
Security Policy CompletedNo ###Policy TypeWPA###Encryption CipherTKIP-MIC###EAP TypePEAPSNMP NAC State Access ###Radius NAC State8021X_REQD .
What is strange, there are some clients which are OK in RUN State, and 50 other % which are not.

We have ASA configured in multi context mode, with software 8.4(2) configured for AAA Configuration is admin context as follows:
aaa-server TAC protocol tacacs+
aaa-server TAC (management) host 10.162.2.201
key *****
aaa authentication enable console TAC LOCAL
aaa authentication http console TAC LOCAL
aaa authentication serial console TAC LOCAL
aaa authentication ssh console TAC LOCAL
Because of multiple context, after logging in we enter System context. Console port authentication is working fine except access to privileged mode while connecting over console port. After issuing "enable" command ASA accepts only configured enable secret in system context and changes user ID to enable_15, so we are unable to do user-level command authorization and accounting.It seems that ASA in system context is not aware of any AAA configuration, and there isn't any command to configure AAA in system context.Is there any way to configure enable authentication over AAA in system context?

I am replacing an older AP with a new 1252 unit. I attached everything and powered it up, but my DHCP server does not appear to be finding it and assigning an IP address. The status light stays green and the ethernet light blinks randomly green. Seems to be connected fine, but without an IP I cannot configure it to use it.

an Aironet 1252 which is failing on boot. When power on the access-point shows the error below.
WARNING: A memory error occurred during the system start-up self-test. The device must be serviced if the error persists.
The following commands can, optionally, be used to initialize the flash file system and the TFTP file transfer system:
But when this happen, I can start the IOS manually doing flash_init and boot in ROMMON. After do this commands, the access-point starts and works normally.
How can I check and correct the memory and solve this issue?

Currently my company has 1 primary SSID that is used throughout both floors of the building. We have 1252 LAPs which have 2.4 and 5Ghz antennas. I'm not sure if this issue is only with XP or perhaps it's the computer's drivers but we run into problems with end users going to a different location and having a very weak signal or nothing at all, yet coverage is fine. I believe the problem is the end user's machine selecting the strongest signal and it I have the feeling that switching bands isn't being done as it should when it's in range. So my question,
Should I split up our 1 SSID and created multiple SSIDs according to the location and include 5Ghz or 2.4Ghz in the SSID name so it's easier to ensure that users are connected to the proper signal? I want to ask if multiple SSIDs would still enable users to freely roam (as long as the ssids are configured) throughout the building without noticing a loss of signal but currently just having 1 SSID isn't really enabling people to freely roam around without connection issues.I don't believe having multiple SSIDs will be useful for the computer's choose their connection any more efficiently but allowing the user to manually see what they're connected to and pick something better according to their location.

I am using two Cisco Aironet 1252 (cisco AIR-AP1252AG-A-K9) to setup a point to point link (one is configured as root bridge and is as a non-root bridge). Both Aironets are running software version Version 12.4(25d)JA.
Is there a way that I can that I can perform an antenna alignment test on the Aironet that is configured as a non-root bridge?executing the following command dot11 dot11radio 0 ? does not show the antenna-alignemnet option.

I would like to add an additional antenna to a 1252 LAP but I'm unsure of a few things...
I know this LAP currently has at least a yogi directional antenna (AIR-ANT2410Y-R) and also a ( AIR-ANT2485P-R) connected to it. The access point is in a ceiling so I cannot view the connections but according to this data sheet, { URL } each of the antennas I've specified require 3 per AP. I am only aware of 1 of each being used so not sure why 3 would be required?
Also on my 1252 1 side has 3, 2.4Ghz connections for antennas, TX, TX&RX, and RX. If I want to only use 1 AIR-ANT2410Y-R, would this be connected to the TX&RX port? Do all antennas support transmit and receive or are there some that only support TX and others that only support RX or is this based only how you configure the antennas? On the other side of the access point there are 3, 5Ghz antenna connections.

I found a few older forum posts and documents online discussing how to create multiple SSIDs on 1 1252 AP using the WLC and they state that VLANs are needed for the interface and then I've read that multiple SSIDs on 1 interface are also possible. I'm not sure on how to actually configure this. I would like my 2.4Ghz radio on the 1252 to be associated with the current SSID in production and the 5Ghz band associated with another SSID that's in production. I couldn't find an option in the WLC or anything stated in the documents I've read about how to associate the radio band with the SSID.

We are using WiSM WLCs and WCS to control a variety of 1131,1142 and 1252 APs utilising AP groups.
I've noticed on WCS that the power of certain APs is at a low setting, even though the APs surrounding them are also at a low setting. This is causing some gaps to appear on the heatmaps. I was under the impression that the WLCs would regulate the AP power to compensate for any gaps. Currently the global TX power level assignment method algorithm is set to automatic every 600 sec.
Now, obviously I could change this to fixed (not ideal as I may not want all my APs to run at max power all the time) or to on demand (also not ideal due to the increased admin).
Is there a way I can verify that the automatic power levels are adjusting as they should? Why are there gaps appearing in my heatmaps?
*NB It's not just the gaps on the heatmaps, I'm getting reports of dropping wireless signals from users hence me looking at the heatmaps and they just happen to correspond.
WLC version 6.0.199.4
WCS version 7.0.172.0

I have two 1252ag wireless access points running in lightweight mode, and connected to a 2006 wlc. They were both running fine until this morning. One of the 1252s won't stop rebooting itself. I consoled in, and this was the output -

*Mar 1 00:00:32.055: %LWAPP-3-CLIENTERRORLOG: DNS Name Lookup: could not resolve CISCO-LWAPP-CONTROLLER

The only reference to it I found online was a very vague "It's a hardware failure", but no further explanation.

I have an issue where I have an AP in one room and another in another.When I walk from one room to the other, I lose signal but manages to see the SSID and join.But, I cannot seem to surf the Internet, I have to manually disconnect and reconnect. Normal wireless routers I reconnect seamlessly without any manual disconnect & reconnect.Currently using cisco 5508 and ap2600.
