I would like to confirm if it is possible to downgrade AP 1042 from CAPWAP to autonomous? I want to buy the AP model AIR-LAP1042N-A-K9. But i don't sure if in the future it could support this feature.
View 9 RepliesI have to prepare an 3600 Capwap AP for autonomous functionality!
The following image was downloaded: ap3g2-k9w7-tar.152-2.JA
The release notes say: Site-Survey Only Mode for 3600, 3500, and 1550 Access Points You can install Cisco IOS Release 15.2(2)JA on Cisco Aironet 3600 and 3500 Series access points and on 1550 series outdoor access points to perform site surveys. This release runs on these access points with limited functionality. You can manually adjust these settings on the site-survey access points:
• Channel on each radio
• Transmit power on each radio
• Enable and disable the radios
• Manually set basic and supported transmit rates
• Enable advertised cell power in beacons to client to enable DTPC for doing active surveys
• Enable and disable SSID broadcast in beacons
• Enable open authentication
My Question is: Where can i find a instruction for downgrading an AIR-CAP3602i to Autonomous 3600 AP? Is it complicate to get the AP running, or what do i need for "downgrading"?
I have an 1142 running capwap c1140-k9w8-tar.124-23c.JA4 that I am wanting to convert to an Autonomous AP.However, the AP does not seem to have an archive exec command to tftp downoad an new IOS.Is there another procedure that should be used ?

The AP is running version 12.4(25d).After multiple tries of configurating, I keep getting the same issue: as soon as I connect to the SSID, I can enter the username and password but authentication fails - hence the message in my console:

Do the 1042 Autonomous APs support GRE tunnels?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI 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.

Is that possible to use that backedup LWAPP IOS when I want to upgrade the Cisco Aironet 1142N autonomous to LWAPP?
upgraded my home AP from Autonomous to Lwapp. I was an Idiot and thought i was getting an IOS upgrade. I need to revert it back to autonomous and a simple "mode" button reset doesnt work. I read that I need to Reload original IOS software, but It appears I cant get it without a support contract. I cant afford servicenet and need to obtain old ios to revert to factory default 12.4(10b)JA1. Do I need a contract to roll back? Is there an archive (backup image) of the old IOS that could be still stored on the device. I didnt back it up and need to obtain the image.

View 4 Replies View RelatedWe setup some new CAPWAP AP 3602E in the network and configure the DHCP server option 43 , but the WLCs still cannot detect the APs , Do you know if there any new way to troubleshooting?

I´m looking to a project where we want to start using Autonomous AP with possibility to change to controller based on near future.
Will Cisco Aironet 1040 Series Access Points allow us to change from IOS to CAPWAP when needed? I read some posts about the oposite process (CAPWAP to IOS) so I think it´s possible on both way. Can some one confirm this to me?
We have had several APs disassociating from our controllers. The alerts say, Message: Access Point 'AP-xxxxx' associated to controller '10.x.x.x' on port number '0'. Reason for association 'Dot11g Mode Change. I have read several posts that point out that you should have QoS implemented to prioritize the CAPWAP traffic. I'd like to know if someone has implemented QoS and whether it has been successful in stopping the APs from disassociating. And if it has been successful do you have any configuration examples for the ports attached to the AP and controller as well as the QoS configuration?
We have several sites with AP1142's and 3500's. We have 2 5508 controllers. We are broadcasting 2 SSIDs of which one is in HREAP mode and the other is in local mode. Each of our sites have MPLS circuits.
Here is an example I found on Cisco which I believe can be used for CAPWAP as long as you change the ports to 5246 & 5247 instead of 12222 & 12223.
Example Router Configurations #
This section contains router configuration examples to be used as guides when addressing CS6 remarking or LWAPP control traffic load.
#
This example uses LWAPP APs on the 192.168.101.0/24 subnet, and two WLCs with ap-managers at 192.168.60.11, and 192.168.62.11. (code)
I'm looking at the spec sheet comparing Cisco WLCs and I see that the 2504 has a bandwidth max of 500mbps. Just to be clear, not all of the traffic from the APs goes through the WLC does it? In this setup, the APs would be plugged into a PoE switch as well as the WLC. The only traffic to WLC would be the CAPWAP tunnel, CleanAir info, etc right? All other traffic should just be handeld at the switch right?Also, does the 2504 licencing include CleanAir in the price?

The controller is 5508.
I have a wireless network running with Controller WISM2 and I also have a NCS.I want to know if there is any way to look of individual log of CAPWAP and LAPWAP Access Points. It is better if I can see it through NCS.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am facing this particular issue while providing Cisco unified Wireless solution to the customer. We are having CAPWAP 1252 APs controlled by WLC.
Scenario: 50 persons sitting in a hall with closely packed chairs using wireless simultaneously. Wireless access provided by patch antenna at a height of 11m from the user. As one AP can server 25 users, 2 APs are placed with antenna directions facing the compact users. Each users gets very good signal from these two APs.
Whether there will be serious interference and client association issues in this scenario? once one AP associates 25 clients, whether other 25 clients associate completely to other AP?
I understand that Cisco *wants* the APs to be directly connected to the new 3850.I have a few questions. Unfortunately, I think I know the answers. I just want to confirm.
a. When MA/MC is enabled on the 3850, does the 3850 start intercepting *all* CAPWAP packets it sees (much like CDP)? Even non-Cisco CAPWAP packets?
b. If I have a WLC 5500 upstream from the 3850, would APs hanging off a downstream 2960 be able to register to the 5500 through the 3850 when the 3850 is NOT in MA/MC mode?
c. If I have a WLC 5500 upstream from the 3850, would APs hanging off a downstream 2960 be able to register to the 5500 through the 3850 when the 3850 IS in MA/MC mode?
What I'm afraid of is:
a. yes, yes
b. yes
c. no
From the Q&A page:Q. Does the Cisco Catalyst 3850 support indirectly connected access points?A. No. The Cisco Catalyst 3850 switch will always terminate the CAPWAP tunnel locally. Pass-through mode or indirectly connected access point is not supported at this time.
Clarify some points with capwap implementation, does all data and control traffic tunneled back to the controller and switching packets to the specific vlan will be done by the controller? so if i have 5508 controller, its maximum throughput will be 8 gbps (local mode AP), provided i have done LAG on all its ports to the LAN switch?

If i debug the 1042 i also see "... has 1 AES-CCMP TSC replays messages..."I have some 1522 MAP meshing through 1142 working fine on same 5508 controller version, i think there are few differences between 1042 an 1142.
I have an Aironet 1042 wireless AP if I create an SSID with no security it shows up as wireless N when I see it on a windows 7 laptop. As soon as I apply any security settings is shows up as G and not N. I just want to be able to authenticate with a Windows 2008 server running NPS - this works fine but I obviously want to connect at N speed and not G.
