  • Upgrade 1121 autonomous to LWAPP

    I have some access-points AIR-AP-1121G-TO-K9 and it would like to use them with a WLAN Controller. Is possible to change IOS for the software LWAPP to use with the WLAN Controller?
    I know that that is possible in another models of access-points, but I don't know if the 1121 support that upgrade.
    Regards.

    Hi Andre,
    Just to add a note to the good tips from Ankur. These AP's can be converted to LWAPP. We did this exact conversion last summer on about 30 1121G's with the **LWAPP upgrade tool**.
    Support for the 1121 was added in WLC version 4.0.155.0 Have a look at these related docs;
    Software release 4.0.155.0 New Features
    LWAPP for Cisco Aironet 1100 Series Access Points (802.11g radio only) Allows the Cisco Aironet 1100 Series Access Point to be upgraded from autonomous access point mode to lightweight mode using the autonomous to lightweight mode upgrade tool.
    Note You must install software release 4.0.155.0 on the controller before connecting 1100 series access points to the controller.

    LWAPP Upgrade Tool Troubleshoot Tips
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_tech_note09186a008072d9a1.shtml
    Access points must run Cisco IOS Release 12.3(7)JA or later before you use the upgrade tool.
    System Requirements
    You can use the Autonomous to Lightweight Mode upgrade tool to install Cisco IOS Release 12.3(11)JX on these access points:
    **All 1100 series access points containing MP21G (802.11g) radios
    All 1130, 1230, and 1240 series access points
    All modular 1200 series access points running Cisco IOS software and containing these supported radios:
    802.11g: MP21G, MP31G
    802.11a: AIR-RM21A-x-K9, AIR-RM22A-x-K9
    All 1300 series access points in access point mode
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/ios/release/notes/b311jx1.html
    Cisco has released a free tool called the "Autonomous to Lightweight Mode Upgrade Tool" that allows selected Cisco Aironet autonomous access point models to be configured for lightweight mode operation.
    The Autonomous to Lightweight Mode Upgrade Tool supports the following models:
    Cisco Aironet 1240AG Series access points
    Cisco Aironet 1230AG Series access points
    Cisco Aironet 1200 Series access points that contain 802.11g (AIR-MP21G-x-K9) and/or second-generation 802.11a radios (AIR-RM21A-x-K9 or AIR-RM22A-x-K9)
    Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series access points
    **Cisco Aironet 1100 Series Access Points that contain 802.11g radios (AIR-AP1121G-x-K9)
    Cisco Aironet 1300 Series Access Points/Bridges (AIR-BR1310G-x-K9 or AIR-BR1310G-x-K9-R). A Cisco Aironet 1300 Series operating in Lightweight Access Point Protocol (LWAPP) mode only operates as an access point. This series does not support LWAPP bridging mode.
    The Autonomous to Lightweight Mode Upgrade Tool supports a process to migrate an autonomous access point from autonomous mode to lightweight mode. Unlike a VxWorks to Cisco IOS Software upgrade, this process is a Cisco IOS Software upgrade to the existing Cisco IOS Software image-not an operating system "swapout". In converted access points operating in lightweight mode, Cisco IOS Software continues to run on the access point, while LWAPP is used to communicate with a wireless LAN controller. Since LWAPP supports automatic access point configuration, there is no need to retain or convert the original autonomous Cisco IOS Software access point configuration.

  • Lightweight Mode Upgrade Tool

    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.

  • Autonomous - LWAPP Upgrade Tool & Vista

    I tried to install the v. 3.4 upgrade tool on Vista Business 64 bit. The installation fails with a pop-up titled "Severe" with error "Error in opening iput file."
    The real problem I'm having is that I can't uninstall the failed installation. It shows up in the installed programs list, but upon uninstalling pops up with "Setup Initialization Error" "Setup is unable to find _SETUP.DLL, which is needed to complete the installation. Error 103."
    Any advice on how I can excise this thing out of my system?

    Unfortunately that didn't do the trick. I did look at the uninstall.bat file and tried running the isuninst command manually with the same options and compatibility mode, but it just immediately exists without doing anything.

  • Upgraded outdoor 1310G bridge from Autonomous to LWAPP

    I recently got a pair of outdoor 1310G bridge radios to create a bridge. I upgraded one of the APs from Autonomous to LWAPP so that it could connect to our 4402 controller so that it could be monitored and controlled by it.
    Everything looks like it upgraded fine with the upgrade tool never got any errors however the file: Config_18June2009_95613.csv that is suppose to have a hash key so that I can load that into the WCS or directly into the WLC is blank nothing is in that document. So at the moment the AP is not joining up with the WLC. Anybody have any advice?
    Thanks,
    Ryan

    Hi Ryan,
    You can run 'debug pm pki enable' when the AP is trying to join to find out the hash key.

  • Autonomous to LWAPP upgrade failure on 1242ag AP

    Using upgrade tool I'm trying to convert an autonomous AIR-AP1242AG-A-K9 AP to LWAPP but the upgrade fails when it tries to load the recovery image onto the AP. Has anyone run into this issue and if so what is the fix? Running 12.3(11)JA IOS on the AP.

    Hi Jason,
    Load the Autonomous IOS using the mode button method. Once the IOS is up and running, copy the recovery image using the "copy tftp: flash:" and change the boot parameters to boot the recovery image.
    Once the AP boots the recovery image, make sure the AP can ping the Management IP Address of the WLC and use the command "lwap ap controller ip address ".
    Hope this helps.

  • LWAPP upgrade tool and Windows 7 (64 bit)

    I know this tool does not have a version for windows 7 but the company foisted the OS off on me to "Test" It works fine with windows 7 32 bit but I have windows 7 64 bit.
    So, I was attempting to install and use the autonomous to LWAPP tool to upgrade an 1131 AP to LWAPP. I DL'ed version 3.4 which is the most current I could find. unfortunately, it gives me an error installing saying it could not read from the IPUT file and after installation it is convinced I already have a TFTP server running, which I do not. In addition to all that, when attempting to Uninstall the tool it says _SETUP.DLL is missing.
    With that information in hand I found the _SETUP.DLL on another machine I use and copied it over which resulted in no improvements of note. I did register the dll as well. Any ideas?

    I assume you are using the RTM (Release To Manufacturing) version. I would suggest, if possible, you might want to use the new XP Virtual PC feature (run XP on Windows 7), if the version of Windows 7 you are running supports it. I think the VM runs XP SP3 32-bit.
    http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx
    You could also try changing the advance properties of the executable and indicate that it should be run in "compatability mode" of Windows XP 32-bit (I think that's an option, but my Windows 7 computer is at home)
    Whatever route you take, you will receive no support from Cisco in this configuration. If you can avoid it, it might be better to not do LWAPP upgrades with Windows 7 until something official comes out.
    petenugent - please be aware that Windows 7 was released to many people on August 6th. The general public release (of the exact same media) is due on October 22.

    4. Rename c1250-rcvk9w8-tar.124-10b.JA3 to c1250-rcvk9w8-tar.default
    5. Make sure you set the IP address on the BVI interface of the AP if not set. Set it in the 10.0.0.x range. Default is 10.0.0.1.
    6. Connect the Ethernet port on AP to your TFTP Server ( Laptop )
    7. Hold the mode button and power off the AP.
    8. Power back the AP while continually holding the mode button for 20-30
    seconds.

  • Upgrading 1252s from autonomous to LWAPP

    I need to upgrade several 1252s from autonomous to LWAPP.
    I have not been able to find the upgrade tool for 1250s or instructions for CLI upgrade.
    I wil be using NCS to do final configuration once the APs come online.
    Can someone assist?
    Thanks,
    Kristin                     

    So long as you pull the rcv file for the AP you should be able ti use NCS to do the conversion.
    Other than that a standard AP upgrade should work, with the rcv file as well.

  • Upgrade Tool - LWAPP

    We are upgrading 800 APs to lightweight. I know the upgrade tool can only upgrade 6 APs at a time. Can I run the Upgrade tool on two different computers at the same time so that I can upgrade more than 6?

    First,
    On each controler, make sure your AP will fit in the local database (AAA/General)
    After that, Make one of the Controler Master Controler. This will be the controler you give to the AP with DHCP.
    Start Converting AP... You need to make room on the Master Controler from time to time and send APs to their primary controler. Before sending APs to their primary controler, distribute the .csv generated by the upgrade tool to all the controler.

  • Autonomous to LWAPP - Air1261 APs

    Hi All,
    I have just download the Auto-to-LWAPP upgrade tool and it is saying that it does not upgrade Air1261 from Auto-to-LWAPP, is it so? If yes, then what is the procedure to convert Air 1261 APs from Autonomous to LWAPP?
    Also, when I start the upgrade tool, it says that a TFTP server is already running on the PC so it will start the application with "User external TFTP" option, however there is not TFTP running on my PC. Why this error is coming? Following is the snapshot of the error.
    Looking for valuable response.
    Regards,
    Sohail

    Take a look at these links as it will explain how to convert the AP's.

  • Converting air-sap2602i-s-k9 from autonomous to LWAPP

    Hi guys,
        I need your expertise regarding how to convert from autonomous to LWAPP using AIR-SAP2602i-s-k9 with IOS version of ap3g2-k9w7-xx.152.-2.JA.
        I'm following these commands but it is not available
        debug capwap console cli or debug lwapp console cli
    I cannot proceed to convert it Did I miss something or the 2600 series doesn't support LWAPP convertion ?
    thank you
    Erik

    Hi Erik,
    Those commands aren;t going to work, they're debug commands for a lightweight AP.
    Here is the guide to upgrading:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/conversion/lwapp/upgrade/guide/lwapnote.html
    It's pretty simple though, get the lightweight software follow the upgrade tool instructions to load new software.
    Though, you have a newer AP so you'd be ok just to load the new software on, if it's only for a small amount this is fine.
    Thanks

    The problem here is that you can't have any fast roaming since you have autonomous and LAP's. The thing is... the phone is associated to a LAP and the mac is known on the trunk port of the wlc, then the phone roams to the autonomous AP and the LAP and IOS AP don't communicate so there is no smooth hand off. Phone has to re-associate or re-authenticate and the mac shows up on both ports until the arp times out. For VoIP, a mixed environment is not supported.

  • 1142 autonomous to lwapp

    hi folks:
    Has anyone of you tried to convert autonomous to lwapp mode? I used upgrade tool v3.4 and it said 1140 is not supported. Or is there any other way to do the conversion? Thanks.
    regards
    Alex

    Was it a LAP to begin with? If so, follow the "LWAPP revert to autonomous" steps using the recovery image as your file. Yes - I know you are going to LAP, not to autonomous. These steps worked great for me when going from autonomous back to LAP (without using the conversion tool):
    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 Set the timeout value on the TFTP server to 30 seconds.
    Step 4 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; then uncheck the Hide extensions for known file types check box.
    Step 5 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 6 Connect the PC to the access point using a Category 5 (CAT5) Ethernet cable.
    Step 7 Disconnect power from the access point.
    Step 8 Press and hold MODE while you reconnect power to the access point.
    Step 9 Hold the MODE button until the status LED turns red (approximately 20 to 30 seconds) and then release.
    Step 10 Wait until the access point reboots, as indicated by all LEDs turning green followed by the Status LED blinking green.
    Step 11 After the access point reboots, reconfigure it using the GUI or the CLI.
