Cisco Wireless :: Upgrade AP1262N To LAP1262 Autonomous To Lightweight?
Jul 12, 2012
This is one of our first site where we are implementing Cisco wireless, and we bought some external Autonomous AP1262, when we should have bought Lightweight LAP1262 . We can get those replaced, but I am looking into migrating them in order to get them to register with our 5508 controllers.
There do not seem to be a migration tool to download for 1262. Must it be done via the WCS ?So far I have not managed to add these autonomous AP to the controllers. How to know if a migration toll exists for those !

Recently installed a 1262N AP in autonomous mode. Have both 2.4 and 5Ghz radios running- Both on separate SSID and VLAN. I think I have 5Ghz channels using 40Mhz bands (bonded) but when I do iperf throughput test I only get about 25Mb throughput. I am sitting within 10 feet of the AP. When I switch to 2.4 I get around 60Mb and that's not bonded. I have tried multiple interfaces on my client side laptop I'm testing with since I thought maybe it was a quirky card or driver but I get same results. Am I doing something wrong here? My laptop shows a 300Mb connection to 5Ghz and 144Mb on 2.4Ghz but I know that's not true thorughput so that's why I was testing this to see what I was really getting and now I'm confused.

we have a couple of AP1262N-E-K9 access point with firmware version 12.4(25d)JA1 operating in autonmous mode.
I attempted to measure the signal quality between the APs by setting one device to repeater mode while all others are in root mode. Then, I execute the following command: dot11 Dot11Radio 0 antenna-alignment
1. The output of "show dot11 antenna-alignment" is incorrect, the % value represents the signal strength in dBm without the - (minus). E.g. "-25 dBm" is displayed as "Signal 25% 0 dBm".Now, I know that is only a display error but still this is not clean. Is this a known issue?
2. Why are the measured signal strength values not displayed on the SSH console during the antenna-alignment test? Is it obligatory to use the console to see these values? Or is it also a known bug which might be fixed in later firmware versions?

how to convert a 3502 access point from Autonomous to Lightweight ? 3502 has a new IOS released back in Dec 2012 to work as staandalone mode. I need to convert this back to Lightweight mode.
I have been searching on web but have had no luck so far with anything. Tried converting it to lightweight in the same way as putting it on Autonomous IOS but errored out.

Apparently converting autonomous 1142N to lightweight is not supported by ether WCS 7.0 or the Upgrade tool. The option is to do it manually with CLI, but there is about 200+ AP's that need converting. We can't do them all at the same time. We have to do it building per building.

Doing the firmware upgrade on a 1041n AP from Autonomous to Lightweight. Downloaded from Cisco, checked MD5 and got a match so went and upgraded. Upgrade went find etc.. and rebooted. When I reboot I get the following error and then rubbish text

I rolled back to the autonomous OS and all ok and AP operates as normal. When on the lightweight IOS I can get a telnet response but cannot access as it states Password require but not set.
Followed this process to upgrade [URL] and followed this process to restore to Autonomous: [URL] why it's not working.
Update: Just tried another AP same result. Downloaded Lightweight again and same result
Here is the CLI upgrade process

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 have some 1242s and I can't get a straight answer on whether they can do both autonomous and lightweight or just lightweight.
Model number: AIR-LAP1242AG-A-K9.
I'm assuming that the 'L' in the model numbers means it's just lightweight, but searching Cisco's site and the Internet in general it's just not clear.
I know it works as a lightweight AP, can I run it in autonomous mode?

I cannot TFTP this tar file to both 1230 and 1231 APs. Both are lightweight APs that I've wiped to the rommon mode (ap>) and I issue the command:
tar -xtract c1200/k9w7-mx.123-8.JA 10.0.0.2
And I get a error saying: "permission denied"
Notes:
The AP has defaulted to the 10.0.0.1 IP.
My laptop is set to 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.0 IP
My TFTP-Server is on and the root folder with the .tar file is in there.
ether_init, flash_init, tftp_init (these commands have been executed)
My firewall is disabled.

I have a 5508 controller, just upgraded from 6.0.182 to 7.0.98.0. Also LAG was switched off directly after upgrade.
Since the upgrade none of the 1142 LAPs are associating with the controller. I can see they are being issued IPs by the internal DHCP but putting a console cable and watching I am getting:
Not in Bound state.
*May 4 11:41:17.759: %CAPWAP-3-ERRORLOG: Not sending discovery request AP does not have an Ip !!
*May 4 11:41:17.759: %CAPWAP-5-DHCP_RENEW: Could not discover WLC using DHCP IP. Renewing DHCP IP.
One Ap prior to the upgrade was on a static IP and that connected through without any problem, (it was an 1131 though, but I dont think that is the issue...)

We have some Cisco Aironet 1142N Autonomous access points installed, currently running 12.4(21a)JA1 IOS system software:
System Software Filename: c1140-k9w7-tar.124-21a.JA1
System Software Version: 12.4(21a)JA1
Bootloader Version: 12.4(23c)JA3
We tried to install the following Autonomous AP IOS software update:
Release 15.2.2-JA ED (c1140-k9w7-tar.152-2.JA.tar) 30-AUG-2012
But the 15.2.2-JA system software release does not install via TFTP Web-GUI (from a accessible PumpKIN TFTP-Server poining on that software update).
What's the problem with that?Is that system software release 15.2.2-JA ED (c1140-k9w7-tar.152-2.JA.tar) not compatible to the Cisco Aironet 1142N Autonomous access points

My current setup is an AP1262n located ~400 feet from my WAP321. I would like to take the wireless signal coming from the AP1262n and rebroadcast it using a WAP321. configuration setting on these two devices.

we have purchased a couple of new Aironet APs for our office:
AIR-AP1262N-E-K9
My objective is to use some of these as wireless monitors to scan the vicinity and to report the SSIDs and RSSI values of all detected APs.
Basically something similar to the Linux command: "iwlist wlan0 scan".
Periodically, I would like to transmit the scanning results to a central server (e.g. via SNMP) for monitoring the whole network area.
Are there built-in commands in the IOS to do this? Or can I use Tcl scripts to perform this task?
I have worked with Cisco routers and switches before but I am new to wireless devices.

we have a couple of AP1262N-E-K9 APs with firmware version 12.4(25d)JA1 operating in autonmous mode. One AP is setup as repeater while all others are in root mode.
The repeater has setup one parent MAC address so it associates every time to the same parent root AP. Given this setting, I am logging into the repeater via SSH and start the antenna-alignment scan: "dot11 dot11Radio 0 antenna-alignment timeout 4"
During this scan, the repeater disconnects from its parent to perform the scan so no output is visible at the SSH console. After the scan is finished, the repeater re-associates to its parent and some output appears on the SSH console.
8 of 10 times this procedure works fine: the scan is finished and I can continue entering commands on the SSH console. However, in some cases the repeater is not reachable any more for about 7 minutes. I.e. pings to the repeater's IP address are unsuccessful and the SSH connection hangs until it is automatically disconnected after a timeout. Also, the web configuration interface is not reachable. After about 7 minutes everything works fine.

we have a couple of AP1262N-E-K9 APs with firmware version 12.4(25d)JA1 operating in autonmous mode. One AP is setup as repeater while all others are in root mode. My goal is to perform the antenna-alignment test through an SSH console on the repeater with a given timeout-value, e.g.:
"dot11 dot11Radio 0 antenna-alignment timeout 4"
However, the behavior of this command is inconsistent as the timeout value is ignored in 20% of the tests. I.e. in 80% of all tests, the scan really runs only 4 s as specified using the "timeout" parameter. In the other 20% of the tests, the "timeout" parameter seems to be ignored: Often the antenna-alignment scan runs for about 140 seconds and in some cases even for 420 seconds. This is problematic as the access point is completely unavailable during the test, i.e. the configuration ssh/web interfaces are not reachable and no clients can associate to the access point. [URL]

is it possible to manage a air-ap1262n with a controller like wlc 5500 or wlc 2500? the official cisco support could not answer me this question for sure. i have found this old guide to upgrade ap´s to lap´s, but there is hothing about the 1260 in it. [URL]
i am a little bit confused!
the cisco documents tells:
"at_a_glance_c45-636090.pdf"
A wireless network with standalone access points offers a low-cost, entry-level solution that does not require a controller. It is ideal for small-scale networks with less than 20 access points, and offers base-level wireless functionality with the flexibility to scale and add services over time by adding a controller.

I was reading that lightweight AP gets config from WLC as soon as they plug in. Need to know how the AP gets config from WLC switches?
