Autonomous To Lightweight Mode Upgrade Image 1042
Hi,
I have two AP1042 that I want to convert to lightweight, but I'm not able to find the software for that. I can only find the IOS software. Is it possible to convert? Is it located some other place?
Regards,
Patrick
Vikas,
You can convert any of these AP's from autonomous to lightweight and vice versa. The requirement is that you need to be able to download the image. If you have the support to download, then you can follow one of these instructions:

Where can I download this image for AP 1240 in cisco web site. I have CCO.
Hi Victor,
It should have been where Andrew pointed you to (who knows :) it is available via this link;

I have installed the latest version of the tool, 3.4, and installed it on an XP SP2 box. Everything looks good, but when I start it returns "C:\Program Files\Cisco Systems\Upgrade Tool\images\c1310-rcvk9w8-tar.124-10b.JA3 - LWAPP Recovery Image is not a valid one".
I have verified that the file exists and is named correctly. I have also downloaded a new copy of the application and image and installed on a different computer and got the same results. Any ideas?Hi EMKF,
I don't think the problem is with the tool it is with this image "c1310-rcvk9w8-tar.124-10b.JA3" I don't know why they have linked this in the Software Downloads to the LWAPP Upgrade image but I'm pretty sure it is wrong.
As far as I know all recovery images are JX (not JA etc.)
I would try this image instead;
12.3(11)JX1.
Note This release must only be loaded onto access points at the factory or by using the Autonomous to Lightweight Mode upgrade tool. Your access point might become inoperable if you install this software without using the upgrade tool.

Converting a 1260AP from Autonomous to Lightweight mode
Is the process for converting 1260 APs to lightweight mode any different from converting 1140s or 1250s? I've converted several APs to LWAP mode but this is my first 1260. Four 1260s need to be converted.
I have one in a remote location that seems to be comatose. Here are the steps I took to convert the AP. Did skip/miss a step?
1. uploaded code to the AP ap3g1-rcvk9w8-tar.152-2.JB.tar
2. configured the AP for DHCP. It successfully leased a DHCP address. Controller information is provided via DHCP Option 43.
3. saved the configuration
4. verified the code, successful
5. disabled wireless radios
6. installed the lightweight code using the command archive download-sw /safe flash:/ap3g1-rcvk9w8-tar.152-2.JB.tar
The installation was successful
7. rebooted the AP
After that nothing. The AP has not leased another IP address. The switchport is active. The APs MAC address is registering in the switches MAC address table. The AP is receiveing PoE from the switch. I noticed that this AP is only receiving 6.2W of power where the three are getting anywhere between 8.8W and 9.3W. I am unable to ping the old static IP of the AP too.
Any suggestions?can you console into the AP and post it's boot up cycle? Let it capture for two reboots of the AP.
Can you also share the config of the switchport this AP is connected to?
HTH,
Steve

Steps to convert access point from LightWeight mode to Autonomous mode
I need steps to convert the following access point from Lightweight mode to Autonomous mode

MajidHi Majid,
The method is just hidden a little further down the doc that Scott linked (+5 points Scott :)
Using a TFTP Server to Return to a Previous Release
Note This section does not apply to Cisco C3201WMIC and Cisco C3201LAP.
Follow these steps to revert from LWAPP mode to autonomous mode by loading a Cisco IOS release using a TFTP server:
Step 1 The static IP address of the PC on which your TFTP server software runs should be between 10.0.0.2 and 10.0.0.30.
Step 2 Make sure that the PC contains the access point image file (such as c1200-k9w7-tar.122-15.JA.tar for a 1200 series access point) in the TFTP server folder and that the TFTP server is activated.
Step 3 On the PC where the TFTP server is located, perform these steps:
a. Disable any software firewall products, such as Windows firewall, ZoneAlarm firewall, McAffee firewall, or others.
b. Ensure all Windows files are visible. From Windows Explorer, click Tools > Folder Options > View > Show hidden files and folders.
Step 4 Rename the access point image file in the TFTP server folder to c1200-k9w7-tar.default for a 1200 series access point, c1130-k9w7-tar.default for an 1130 series access point, c1240-k9w7-tar.default for a 1240 series access point, and c1250-k9w7-tar.default for a 1250 series access point.
Step 5 Connect the PC to the access point using a Category 5 (CAT5) Ethernet cable.
Step 6 Disconnect power from the access point.
Step 7 Press and hold MODE while you reconnect power to the access point.
Step 8 Hold the MODE button until the status LED turns red (approximately 20 to 30 seconds) and then release.
Step 9 Wait until the access point reboots, as indicated by all LEDs turning green followed by the Status LED blinking green.
Step 10 After the access point reboots, reconfigure it using the GUI or the CLI.

How to upgrade an Aironet 3602e from Autonomous to Lightweight???
Hi everyone
Hope you can help me with this. I have an Aironet 3602e that was bought as a Lightweight AP, last week need to do some testing and changed the image to an Autonomous one. Now I need to use it with a Controller, but can´t find the procedure to upgrade it to Lightweight again.
I tried the procedure of the upgrade tool, but it saids that this AP is nos supported.
Anyone who has this information please. I already had the Lightweight images.
Best Regards
Alvaro RugamaHI Alvaro,
For the LWAP conversion, use the recovery image. We can use this command on the autonomous AP priviledge mode.
AP#archive download-sw /force-reload /overwrite tftp://10.10.10.1/image.tar

Hope it helps. -

Aironet 1250 in lightweight mode?
Can the Aironet 1250 802.11n WAPs be made to run in lightweight mode like the 1240's can?
Been poking around the cisco site and cant find anything that clearly says yes or no.
thanks
e-Y'sure can. Here's a link to show you how it's done:
1. The EASY way:
Upgrading Autonomous Cisco Aironet Access Points to Lightweight Mode
www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/conversion/lwapp/upgrade/guide/lwapnote.html
2. The CLI way:
Requirements:
⢠Image file (The recovery file has the prefix ârcvâ in the image name, such as c1200-rcvk9w7-tar.122-15.JA.tar);
⢠AP is connected to the Wireless LAN Controller; and
⢠AP can ping the TFTP server where the image is located.
Procedure
1. Copy the recovery file to the AP using the following command:
archive tar /x tftp:/// flash:
2. Let the AP boot on this image:
boot system flash://.bin
3. Reboot the AP.
OPTIONAL
⢠DO NOT ALLOW THE AP TO JOIN THE WIRELESS LAN CONTROLLER.
⢠IF POSSIBLE, type the following commands:
ï¾ clear lwapp private-config (This will bring the AP to factory default.);
ï¾ clear lwapp ap ip address
ï¾ clear lwapp ap hostname
ï¾ clear lwapp ap controller ip address
4. Let the AP connect to the Wireless LAN controller.
OPTIONAL
If an AP refuses to join the Wireless LAN Controller, type the following command from the AP:
lwapp ap controller ip address

Cisco 1230 access point a radio lightweight mode
Will the cisco 1230 access point work in lighweight mode if it is using a radio?
The 1230 can be upgraded to LWAPP with the A Radio model listed below;
Solution Requirements
Migration from autonomous access point mode to lightweight mode is possible on these Cisco Aironet access point platforms:
All 1130AG access points
All 1240 AG access points
For all IOS-based 1200 series modular access point (1200/1220 Cisco IOS Software Upgrade, 1210 and **1230 AP**) platforms, it depends on the radio:
if 802.11G, MP21G and MP31G are supported
if 802.11A, RM21A and RM22A are supported
The 1200 series access points can be upgraded with any combination of supported radios: G only, A only, or both G and A.
All 1310 AG access points

At least one AP is upgrading image, download cannot start
Trying to perform a code upgrade on our WLC but receive this error -
At least one AP is upgrading image, download cannot start
I don't see any of the AP's in the download state either viewing through the GUI or CLI.
Has anyone run into this before ? Any suggestions ?Issue has been reported on some 7.4 and 7.6 codes where the controller will prevent rebooting
thinking one (some) of the AP's is in downloading state even when there are no AP's that show stuck in this process.
To fix this, I had to do a forced reboot on the controller using the command “reset system forced”.
Our controllers are in HA mode so I than forced a fail-over back to the primary.
Once completed I was able to upgrade the controllers. -

Hi Mahesh,
If I understand your question correctly, then there are several examples in chapter 6 of the book Java Servlet Programming by Jason Hunter (with William Crawford). Those examples are available here:

Also, you can browse the entire contents of the book (online) at the "Safari" online library:

Get GPS info using Autonomous and CellSite Mode parallelly using MultiThreading
I tried to get the GPS latitude and longitude values using Autonomous and CellSite Mode parallelly using two threads, but while execution only one thread is being active and I get values from only that, the other thread doesn't return any values at all.
Is it possible to retrieve the GPS information using multiple threads running parallelly and also can I display the latitude and longitude values from the threads on the screen with less accuracy rate among the values.
Thanks in advance...Your thread may not get noticed as it is in General Support threads. You may post your thread in Java Development to get faster response.
