and i put sh run
it showing only one fastethernet interface and there is no bvi interface on that.
and full it is showing related to the certificate commands.
plz help me in this
thanks

Hi Cyril,
The problem here is that the AP that you received is an LWAPP or Lightweight AP which will only work with the WLC/Unified solution. This is referenced in your first show-ver by these comments;
AIR-LAP1242AG-E-K9
LWAPP Image Version 3.0.51.0
You will need to convert the AP back to Autonomous mode.This is most possible
Here is the related info :)
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.

Which Cisco Access Point is Waterprof ? (outdoor:BR1300 + AIR-ANT24120)

hi,
My questions to the community :
i have to choose for a customer some 50 Access points but that must have an external antennas with at least 8 dbi as gain and to be waterprof
for me the BR1300 + AIR-ANT24120 is a good choice if the BR1300 is Waterproof (For me :normaly all Cisco Access Point Outdoor must be WaterProof : but i want to have a confirmation with a document if possible )
and it's interessant to knew ,which Cisco Access Point is Waterproof ?
Think you All !
Zammit Ikbel

the 1310 is going to be waterproof, as is the 15xx product line, (152x and 155x). All this can be found in the data sheet for the AP.
That being said, you can also put any of the external AP into a NEMA enclosure, and have it be waterproofed, so long as the enclosure is rated as such.

Can cisco MSE(mobility service engine) configured to work with non-cisco access points?

I understand that access points can be configured to forwards all the probe requests to cisco wifi controller. cisco MSE(mobility service engine) gets the probes from wifi controller to find the location of the mobile devices.
My question, can cisco MSE(mobility service engine) be configured to work with non-cisco access points?

No and the reason why is the NMSP communication from the MSE to the WLC. Other vendors don't support this so there is no communication happening.

Blackberry Z10 connection with an Aironet Cisco Access Point 1200

Hi everybody,
I'm trying without success a connection between a Blackberry Z10 and an Aironet Cisco Access Point 1200.
We have no BB Server, we would like just to connect the WIFI.
I've checked this points during the activation of the device:
There's no LEAP protocolle.
There's an EAP-Fast possibility.
There's Mac Address recognition possibility.
When we try to use the EAP-Fast possibility, we generate a .pac file, but i don't know where i can put this file so that the Blackberry recognize this file. I've search the whole day and didn't find anything... there's simply no explanation with the Z10 around the .pac file without a BB Server.
I've try the Mac Address recognition and it simply doesn't work (no error the search time is too long)
Every other older smartphones - Blackberry (there's 4 devices) are working.
Anyone have an idea about? a suggestion? a list of compatible WIFI Devices?
Thank you ahead.
Have a nice day.
Joel.

Sorry i don't understand your answer.
I'm not a developper but a system administrator.
I just would like to use a Balckberry Z10 with our Wifi/Router Aironet Access Point 1200.
not more.
Best regards,

Configuring Cisco Access Points 1602i Air-SAP-1602I-Z-K9

Hi everyone,
I am having touble configuring cisco access points 1602i. I have configured them and they are broadcasting SSID and clients are able to connect to them, but the only thing which is troublesome is speed. I have 100Mbps bandwidth speed but at access point I am getting speed between 17 to 25. Can anyone please tell me where I am gone wrong.
I have Juniper Srx210 configured as backbone for providing internet on fiber. Then further I have attached one POE switch (managable). From that switch I have attached 4 access points.
One more thing,two ports of Juniper is configured as Vlans, one for staff and one for students. I have attached this POE switch to Student Vlan, but haven't configured ports of POE switch as trunk. Please tell me do I have to configure ports as trunk on POE Switch. Is this the cause of slow bandwidth over access points.
I am also planning to go for Wlan Controller to manage Access points. When I contact my supplier about it, told me the following:
"You just need to convert the Access points to autonomous mode. Here are some details, there is no additional charge."

https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-14960
I looked at the links but couldn't understand properly. Then I searched over the internet and found out that
"a cisco autonomous access point basically runs on its own while a lightweight access point uses a centralized device called a wireless lan controller to get its configuration. autonomous access points are managed individually, while the lightweight access points can be managed centrally. also, the switchport configurations to support both types of access points will differ. "
I didn't understand, why he suggested to go for Wlan controller and to upgrade access points to autonomous mode, when according to above finding, it says that autonomous access points runs individually.
Please advice.
I shall be thankfull

Hello Scott and Leo,
Thanks for all your help.
I have managed to install and configure 4 Access points and Now Access points are giving speed between 25 to 45Mbps. Still not enought but it sloving the purpose. Everyone is enjoying their face book. I will soon get the Cisco Wlan Controller as well. I dont know if there is a way to get more speed from these access points. I am ready to buy more equipments if required.
Anyway, today I need your guys expretise once again. As you know Junipr Srx 210 is configured for fiber internet to provide internet services to school. Now we are changing the building and transfering the line to new building. This time I want to use Cisco router in place of Juniper Srx210. But I need to know what model will support the current configuration for fiber. Would you please tell me what model/series router will be suitable for fiber internet and for implementing other restrictions.
I am attaching a picture of current jiniper Srx 210 for your consideration.
I shall be very thankfull to you

PPPoE on Cisco Access Point

Hi, Im looking for possibility to configure Cisco Access Points for PPPoE and VPDN anybody knows pls reply to [email protected] tks

I think it is possible to configure AP to fucntion over PPPOE. But since AP is just a layer2 device, we also need a layer 3 device like router to support PPPOE. Without layer 3 device, it is not possible.

Cisco Access Point is not Broadcasting

Hello ,
one of my Access Point is showing up in WLC but not broadcasting .
any Idea Please advice.

Hi Islam,
In WLC GUI ( go to Wireless tab) & select the AP
1. Check the "Admin Status" of the AP. It should be enable
2. Advanced setting page of AP, "AP Group name" set to be correct ap group. If you haven't create any additional ap groups it should be in "default-group"
3. Also check in the interface tab of the AP configuration both radio 0 & radio 1 interface Operation Status is UP

AP1262 bridge to Non-Cisco Access Point?

I would like to use a Cisco AP1262 in a mobile command vehicle to bridge to any WiFi Access Point that I know the SSID and Pasword to. Will the 1262 Bridge to a Non-Cisco Access Point?
If so, any assistance in finding an example configuration would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Brian

Hi Brian,
Yes, you can configure 1262 as Universal Workgroup bridge where it will associate to any cisco or non-cisco root AP. You can only connect one wired client behind universal WGB.
You just need to configure "station-role workgroup-bridge universal <wired_client_MAC>" under radio interface of WGB. (1262)
Something similar should work for your 1262, if you want it in 5GHz, otherwise configure radio 0 interface for WGB
hostname WGB
dot11 ssid <SSID-NAME>
authentication open
authentication key-management wpa version 2
wpa-psk ascii <PASSWORD>
interface Dot11Radio1
encryption mode ciphers aes-ccm
station-role workgroup-bridge universal 068d.098a.d422 <- Ur wired MAC
ssid <SSID-NAME>
bridge-group 1
interface GigabitEthernet0
bridge-group 1
NB: I haven't tested this, so you have to test & confirm. If WPA2/AES is not supported then you may need to choose suitable security protocol & encryption mechanism.

Cisco Access Points Rebooting

Has anyone experienced a Cisco Access Point reboot itself, on it's own?

7 out of 17 are rebooting... but it's not isolated to one IDF it's different spots within the building.i will check the log in flash.
Hmmmmm ... And if you do a "sh version" to everyone of them it comes up saying something like "by power-on"?
If this is the case, you may also want to consider the copper cables between your Injector and your AP.

PPPoE and VPDN config. in Cisco Access Points

Hi, Im looking for possibility to configure Cisco Access Points for PPPoE and VPDN anybody knows pls reply to [email protected] tks

I can only comment on the wireless voice side. Phones will be setting the Qos (Cos and ip precedence) you will need all the devices in the network to understand these QoS and act apropiately, prioritizing voice over other data.
If you can't guaratee that all devices that the voice will cross will maintain those Cos/dscp settings and will prioritize the voice, you can't guarantee how the voice quality would be.

Cisco Access point management vlan

Hi All,
I have all my switches configured to run on native vlan 500 and management on vlan 10
with the cisco access point , if I make 500 native or another word trunk untagged vlan then I can't access the router using the BVI interface which is meant to have ip from vlan 10.
vlan 10 is the management network across our business and all management ips are on that range.
what are the possible solutions?

When you connect the access point to the wired LAN, the access point links to the network using a bridge virtual interface (BVI) that it creates automatically. Instead of tracking separate IP addresses for the access point's Ethernet and radio ports, the network uses the BVI.
When you assign an IP address to the access point using the CLI, you must assign the address to the BVI. Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to assign an IP address to the access point's BVI:
Step 1
configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
interface bvi1
Enter interface configuration mode for the BVI.
Step 3
ip address address
mask
Assign an IP address and address mask to the BVI. Note If you are connected to the access point using a Telnet session, you lose your connection to the access point when you assign a new IP address to the BVI. If you need to continue configuring the access point using Telnet, use the new IP address to open another Telnet session to the access point.

Any ideas?

Fascinating just reading about your setup. I have a WRT350N and have noticed that it will drop its speed, sometimes down to 1Mbps. It seems to do so at about the same time every day, but usually comes back to speed in about 5 minutes. In my experience, the Apple TV will disconnect if the speed falls this low. Try monitoring the Linksys with Netstumbler, Vistumbler, or just in the Windows Network utility.
Check the "lease obtained" and "lease expired" times for your router to see if that is when the network fails. I've just finished reading an angry thread over at the Linksys forum about the WRT330N where someone mentioned that the router wasn't renewing its lease.
"I cannot set it run off automatic DHCP from the WRT330N, the router will not assign it an IP every time the lease expires, causing me to have to manually set an IP on the Print server. That's annoying. Having the router drop IP's to individual machines after 12-48 hours...very annoying."
http://forums.linksys.com/linksys/board/message?board.id=Wireless_Routers&thread .id=67412
If that is the problem, then I would consider setting up a Static IP address for your Apple TV. You can do that through the user interface -> Settings -> Network -> Configure ... (Quite intuitive as you only have change IP address and the subsequent details remain the same.)
My router assigns IP Addresses in the ranges of 192.168.1.100 ->149. The idea here is to choose an address outside of that range but is not greater than 192.168.1.253 (and should not end in the number 1). You shouldn't have to change the linksys router as long as 50 clients are assigned in that range. You'll have to figure that out by accessing your router webpage at browser address 192.168.1.1 -> the default password is "admin" (without the quotes).
Good luck.

Third Party Signal Repeaters/Wireless Extenders for Boosting Cisco Access Points Indoors

We are have some buildings that have access points (Cisco 2602e with 6dBi Terrawave omni antennas) in the hallways, in which the clients residing in rooms aren't receiving a strong enough signal to connect at suitable rates. The main reason for this is the large thick doors utilized for the client rooms reducing the strength of the signal, and we weren't authorized to place APs inside the rooms. Nor are we able to modify the structure of the building, such as changing the doors. We can't ask or expect the clients to keep their doors open to rcv a stronger signal. I've tweaked the Tx power for the APs, and lowered the mandatory rates on the WLC for this location under the RF profile created for it, but this isn't resolving the issue with the weak signal.
One band aid solution idea was to place signal repeaters (low profile) inside each room, behind the wall/door area facing the hallway. I've seen a few third party products online, but they seem to only come in support of the 2.4GHz band. If this is a feasible solution, then it looks like we wouldn't be able to support clients on the 5GHz band on our AP, as clients would most likely connect to the 2.4 GHz band due to a stronger signal, limiting our load balancing on the AP. Anyone have experience with using signal repeaters that work properly with Cisco APs.
Not the ideal situation, but have the hands strapped on what we can do.

If you've got a WLC, then disable TPC and crank up the power to full.

Cisco Access Point Configuration to support 802.11b & 802.11g protocol

How do i Configure access point to support both 802.11b & 802.11g clients on a Cisco 1121G series access point(AIR-AP1121G-A-K9)
Regards
Hitesh

Hi Hitesh,
Check out this excerpt from the 1121g AP Installation guide section on enabling the 802.11b and 802.11g radios.
In Cisco IOS Release 12.3(4)JA and later, the access point radios are disabled by default, and there is no default SSID. You must create an SSID and enable the radios before the access point will allow wireless associations from other devices. These changes to the default configuration improve the security of newly installed access points. Refer to the "Configuring Basic Security Settings" section for instructions on configuring the SSID.
In Cisco IOS Release 12.3(2)JA or earlier, the access point radio is enabled by default, and the default SSID is tsunami.
To enable the radio interfaces, follow these instructions:
Step 1 Use your web-browser to access your access point.
Step 2 When the Summary Status page displays, click Network Interfaces > Radio0-802.11B or Radio0-802.11G and the radio status page displays.
Step 3 Click Settings and the radio settings page displays
Step 4 Click Enable in the Enable Radio field.
Step 5 Click Apply.
Here is a link to the actual document:
