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

  • 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:

  • Converting AIR-AP1231G-A-K9 to lightweight mode

    Hi Everyone,
    I have an issue with Cisco AP AIR-AP1231G-A-K9 after converted to Lightweight mode. I am using WLC 2106 with version code of 7.0.98.0 but after successfull conversion from autonomous mode to lightweight mode the, the AP is not getting associated to WLC. It shows up for a one or two seconds under WLC and then again disappers. This AP has raido AIR-MP31G which i think is supported for converting it to lightweight mode.
    Please see below the log of the upgrade utility after convertign to lightweight mode.

  • Error when migrating AP 2600 from Autonomous to Lightweight

    Hello,

    The AP successfully downloads the image from an external TFTP server but fails at updating the environment variables.
    The logs show that the AP should download a text file from Cisco Prime but fails to do so:

    Hi David,
    I think 2600 AP not supported on Prime Infra for autonomous to Ligtweight migration.
    PI 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 , 2.0
    Only these APs are supported: Autonomous to Lightweight Migration Support
    Cisco Aironet 1130 Access Point

  • Problen to convert an AP from IOS to Lightweight

    Hi,
    I'm try to convert some AP's from IOS to Lightweight using the Ugrade Tool version 3.4 but I get an error. I used a sniffer and I saw that the Upgrade Tools start a tftp copy of a "validate.txt" file from the AP to the PC where it is installed. I don't know what is this file and what it should contain. I don't find any document about it. Can some one tell me how create this file and where put it?
    Thamk you in advance
    Regards
    Giovanni

    Hi Leo,
    I don't have the print screen of the error, I recieve the message form the Upgrade Tool to check if there is firewall between AP and tftp , but the problem is that the file "validate.txt" in not present so the requestt go in timeout. With the sniffer I see the command from Upgrade Tool (my pc) to AP " copy tftp://(ip address my PC)/validate.txt flash:" The AP send a request for get the file but on the PC that file is not present and I don't know what I have to do.
    I try with AP1131,AP1241 and AP1231. The AP and the WLC are on different subnet but connected to the same L3 core switch, the PC where I start the Upgrade Tool is remore.

  • 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 Rugama

    HI 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
    Regards
    Hope it helps.

  • 3700 AP - Best way to convert back from Autonomous to LIghtweight

    I have a 3700 AP that I have up & running as Autonomous. I recently got a 2504 WLC and would like to put the AP back to Lightweight and run it from the 2504.  
    The 2504 is running 8.0.110.0 code and I have the current 3700 Lightweight Recovery image and IOS downloaded as well. 
    I have done done some searches and most of he articles are conversion to Autonomous. Not much is out there for putting it back. Some articles just mention needing the Lightweight  recovery image while others state I can use the Mode button and just have a TFTP server running  in a specific subnet and the AP will "pull" down the code and convert back.  Almost all of the articles refer to old model APs...
    Looking for clarity in the process as I certainly don't want to brick this 3700 AP. 
    Thx. 

    Hi
    You can use either methods & it will work (even for 3700)
    If you using mode button method, make sure you rename the recovery image something like this ap3g2-k9w7-tar.default. Refer this post for detail
    http://mrncciew.com/2013/12/13/ap-conversion-using-mode-button/
    Normal method is described here

  • Migration from autonomous access point mode to lightweight mode on 1530

    1500 series is not mentioned on:
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/access_point/conversion/lwapp/upgrade/guide/lwapnote.html
    Can it actually be upgraded just by changing IOS from APto CAP?

    The 1530 should have the image k9w8 alreadyin flash:
    Autonomous Mode Configuration
    The 1530 Series allows the Unified  (controller-based) and Autonomous mode software to be loaded at the  factory on the same hardware part number. This eliminates the need for  separate part numbers for controller-based units and autonomous mode  units.
    At boot-up, the default mode is controller-based.  The 1530 will power up and begin searching for a controller. Once it  joins the controller, it will download the active Unified image from the  controller. This is the same operation as other Cisco controller-based  APs.
    For Autonomous mode, the user should take the following steps:
    Step 1 Power the AP and connect to the console.
    Step 2 From the Command Line, enter:
         AP # capwap ap autonomous (# means privileged EXEC mode)
    Step 3 The system will respond with "Convert to Autonomous image. Proceed? (yes/[No]):"
    Step 4 Type "yes" to confirm.
    Step 5 The AP will then re-boot and load the Autonomous image. The unified image is erased.
    Step 6 Once the 1530 has booted in autonomous mode, configuration of the AP can done by following the procedure outlined here:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/docs/wireless/access_point/12.4_10b_JA/configuration/guide/scg12410b.html
    You can probably issue a dir or show flash: and then if the image is there, you can boot to it.
    Example:
    config t
    boot system flash:/ap3g2-k9w8-mx.v152_4_jb/ap3g2-k9w8-mx.v152_4_jb

  • "Poor Signal", "Coverage hole pre alarm for client" after changing from Autonomous to Lightweight infrastruture

    Dears,
    I use to have wireless infrastructure based on autonomous APs 1142n, auth w/ 802.1x and everything was fine.
    My Company decided to implement WLC 5508, and I changed only 2nd floor (2 APs) as lightweight and implement WLC over there as pilot testing...
    Now All persons here (around 35 clients) are complaining about disconnections, poor signal...
    Both APs are distant each other maximim of 15 meters... Our office has a medium open spaced room, with (20 X 15 meters) only 2 "Pilaster" in the middle of the room.

    Actually I am using both APs as lightweight in 2nd floor.
    How about this power level? where I can find those parameters ?
    At 3rd floor all APs are autonomous, I accessed one of them and find this parameter
    CCK Transmitter Power (dBm):           Max

  • Conversion of an AIR-AP1120B from autonomous to LAP

    Does anyone know if it's possible to convert the AIR-AP1120B from autonomous to LAP?

    Hi Federico,
    Sadly, the 1120 with "B" Radio is not supported :(
    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.

  • 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
    From this good doc;

  • 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.

  • 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
    AIR-AP1242AG-E-K9
    Regards,
    Majid

    Hi 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.
