Cisco Wireless :: AP521G Standalone As Bridge
Oct 8, 2010
I have an extra 521G standalone access point. My network jack is on the other side of the wall...so I am curious to see if I could use this access point as a bridge of some sorts to join my wireless network (on a UC520W-8U-4FXO-K9) and use the Ethernet jack on the AP as a bridge of some sorts so that I can connect my IP phone and laptop behind it. I've set up standalone AP's like this as base stations before, but I've never tried bridging and haven't had much luck just playing around with it.

I'm looking at creating WLANs using standalone APs for the first time. I know this can all be done with trivially a controller, but this project can't stretch to that...Can I use MAC filtering on standalone APs to restrict which clients associate?I think these will be 1240AG devices but I assume the answer is the same for all models?Can I mix MAC filtering with WEP/WPA? And use MAC filtering without encryption?

I have a Brand new AP that was bought for a site which has a controller, however it was never installed. I was wondering can you downgrade this AP to make it work in stand alone mode as a normal AP?

One of Cisco Wireless AP 1242 installed in my premises restarts itself; AP is getting power from Catalyst 2960 POE. I am using multiple SSID on this AP. I have issued the show tech-support. I have seen below in tech-support System was restarted by unknown reload cause - reason ptr 0xF, PC 0x46FEB8, address 0x0? what could be the reason of restarting of AP. AP is in production since 1 year and it restarts seldom.

I just installed an Aironet 1140 to replace a Netgear ProSafe access point that I had in my network prior. I'm having one issue that I can't figure out though. None of the client PCs can establish a connection to an external (over the internet) VPN server while on the Aironet wireless. If i unplug the AP and plug a PC into the same port that normall feeds the Aironet I can VPN just fine.
Is there any "VPN Passthrough" option that needs to be enabled somewhere on the 1140 that is blocking this traffic for some reason?
i'm running the following IOS BOOTLDR: C1140 Boot Loader (C1140-BOOT-M) Version 12.4(18a)JA3, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) and I've included my running config below

I have a AIR-SAP-1602i-k9 Aironet. I cannot find any information on the Cisco site on how to configure the Aironet without a controller. I assumed a standalone meant I could just login.
I tried seeing if it would pull a DHCP address on my network but it didnt.

I have to set up the AP in a standalone mode to support voice and data traffic through the wireless network. for this, i was trying to look for the config guide so i know how to go about it, but all the doc was refering to controller based setup. i followed this link URL
I have never worked on wireless in a standalone mode, so this is the first time i will be doing it.

For some time now I have been looking for a good business class wireless AP. I've narrowed it down to the Cisco Aironet 1140 standalone (no controller). I'm no stranger to Cisco products. I've worked with their routers, switches and Pix/ASA firewalls. However, I've not had the opportunity to work with their wireless AP's. Anyone using these AP's (more specifically the 1140 standalone), can provide information on the reliability and security of these devices. Some of the features I would like to have like Radio Mgmt. and Rogue AP Detection I see are only available on the controller based units. Does not having these features on the standalone unit reduce its reliability and security? This is for a small business and the budget does not allow to drop for a controller at this time.

I'm about to purchase 2 Aironet APs, either 1140 or 1160 Series for a small Business. I know too little about the AP installation. How to let both APs works in Roaming Mode so that users can move freely within the site without having to drop and connect from one AP to the other.

for some reason our wlan-controllers were build up to be standalone instead of beeing one mobility-group. I would like to change this in order to use all features of HA.
let me describe our scenario: two WLCs 5508 running SW ver. 6
- same subnet
- both are running in master controller mode
- different hostnames, ip-addresses, etc
- all settings for WLANs and AP-groups (exept the APs themselves in these groups) are the same
- in total at this moment we are running around 100 LAPs configured one half on WLC#1, the other half on WLC#2
I don't know exactly why, but when that setting was installed, someone already configuredHA for each accesspoint... e.g.:
- AP#1 primary WLC#1, secondary WLC#2
- AP#2 primary WLC#2, secondary WLC#1 but without WLC#2 knowing the configuration for AP#1 it makes no sense, correct?
so my question is: how should I do the migration in the best way?
is it easy as:
- disabling master controller mode on WLC#2
- configuring both WLCs into one mobility group
--> WLCs are negotiating their configurations for the APs

I'm new to the Cisco Aironet Access Point. I got a new STANDALONE Aironet 1260 series access point device. The part # AIR-AP1262N-A-K9. The shipping package did not come with any guide, CD, and power adapter. I searched the Cisco sites, but could not find appropriate manuals. I did find a getting started guide but not for standalone AP, it's for Controller-based AP. Question - where can I find manuals / guides to set up and configure my new standalone Cisco Aironet Access Point 1260?

I just installed an Aironet 1602i, standalone WAP. I have it configured to use a RADIUS server in our office. However, two issues have come up when trying to get clients connected.
iPhones and iPads won't connect to either the 2.4 or the 5 GHz radios.
No one can connect to the 5 Ghz radio.
Both radios are UP according to the GUI interfaces of the WAP. Also, laptops and android devices are able to connect to the 2.4GHz radio but not the 5 GHz radio.
I am on the latest version of the firmware.

I have two 5504 Controller. Original Liceses 100 per Controller. At the beginning the Controllers were running standalone as a Primary and secondary in a Mobility domain. Now they are running in a HA Pairing mode. One Controller as the Primary an the second as the Standby in the redundancy HA SKU mode. The first step SSO disable is done.
how setup back the HA SKU Standby-Controller to get again the 100 licenses?

We have a customer who is evaluating a Cisco Vs. Motorla wirless solution. He says that a Motorola AP can only work in standalone mode for 48 hrs. after it lost communication to the controller. Is there any limitation like this with a 2500 controller and 1140 series access points solution?. Is there any reference to show?

I am using an Aironet 1142 standalone AP and want to use Apples Bonjour Service between iOS devices e.g. iPad and Apple TV.I have found here some posts that suggest to disable igmp snopping but this didn't worked for me.All devices are in the same vlan/subnet. Do I need to configure something special?

I have a number of existing 1140G Access points.I now need to purchase a couple of new AP's to expand coverage and it makes sense to go with the latest N standard ones.Currently I only have standalone models and at the moment I don't have the budget to purchase a management box to allow me to get centrally managed models.
If I purchase 1140N standalone AP's now, can I convert the to centrally managed ones later? If yes, Any disadvantage in doing this?

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.

how to configure an AIR-LAP521-G-E-K9 wireless access point in standalone mode? I've tried connecting it to a standard 1GB switch, feed it with IP address via DHCP it responds to PING but when it comes to detect it in CCA (3.1) it says unable to connect without even asking for username and/or password. Trying to connect to it through HTTP or HTTPS doesn't work either.

I must configure an Aironet 2602e Access Point, as a standalone access point (without WLC), but I can not find Configuration Guides for that. I have only found the "getting started guide" but there is described an installation combined with a WLC, which I have not. Is it provided no real guidance from Cisco? I did something never done before.

I recently bought 6 airo net 1041N standalone access points for a customer of mine. It's an academy of barely 200 students. I'll be installing an access point in every room, to ensure better signal, since they use video for there classes. The reason why i decided to install an access point in every room is because the walls are armed concrete and they had a terrible experience with a past company in which they spend a lot of money for a antenna system that didn't work.These access points will be connected to a switch, which I have to buy also.Every student is going to bring there own laptops in order to connect to the network.
The reason why I'm writing is because I have a few questions to clarify.
1) What is the best position for better signal, top side wall or corner ceiling?
2) How many client mac address filtering can i do per access point?
3)I plan on doing ESSID but can I mac filter clients to a particular access point or should I mac address filter all permitted devices in all access points. The problem is that students come with iPods and phones and as you know on windows they will be able to see the wpa2 key and enter it on the particular UN-authorized device.
4) Any graphic user interface for configuring these access points or do i have to use Cisco IOS(kind of familiar with it)? (I'm used to GUI)
5)How can I configure these access points, through Ethernet browser or do I have to use console port cable?
6)Do I have to use POE injector or can I connect the access points directly to the switch with PoE and QoS?
7)I was planning on buying a small business switch sg100 d-8 but they recommended me that I should use the catalyst 2960 series, which would be best for handling video data? don't have to be much features, just QoS.
8) Can CCp software be used in these access points?

Is there any way to set up our ISE to provide Radius instead of acting as Radius Proxy? In our Company we use ACS 4.2 to provide AAA via Tacacs+ and this works proper with all our Cisco-Switches. Now we are testing the ISE 1.1.1 as NAC-Solution.
I know how to set up the ISE as 'Radius Proxy', configuring the Sequences and Policies, but till now we are using only Tacacs+ for AAA. The current version of ISE does not support Tacacs+ and I don't want to set up a Radius-enviroment in ACS if not necessary. Somewhere ( I think the specs) I read, the ISE is a merge of ACS and NAC. So in my Opinion there should be a way to provide AAA via Radius on the ISE without ACS and without 'Radius Proxy'.

We have been successfully using our Aironet 1140 AP in standalone mode with mainly Windows pcs & laptop users, and now, iPads and iPhones. All seem to connect happily through the 1140.
Recently we have a requirent to be able to use Apple's Airplay. Basically, it is not working through the 1140, it works ok via wired ethernet. Can the 1140 support Airplay? - If yes, what precisely must be enabled/configured?
We have a single Class C network without any Vlans. I understand multicast must be enabled, I can't see where to enable this. How to get this working if it is at all possible.

In another thread here on HardOCP, webdev511 made the first mention I've seen of Microsoft's new malware cleaner. MS is making clear that Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) is for prevention, while Microsoft Standalone System Sweeper (MSSS) is for removing existing infections of difficult-to-remove malware.The obvious competitors to MSSS are ComboFix and Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware. Having been lucky enough to not suffer an MBR-based malware, I'd like to hear what is best to do should I run into one.

Just got U-Verse High Speed 10mbps/1mbps. However it came with a 2wire 3600HGV router/modem combo but I prefer my old apple airport + modem setup. I looked around the 2wire's GUI and it didn't have anything for Bridge Mode like other gateways I use to have. How are you setting up your U-verse to use standalone router?
