Converting a 1310 to autonomous IOS mode

I have a 1310 that I need to convert to autonomous IOS mode. For this I have the 1310 connected to a 2100 WLAN controller. The problem is when I run the config ap tftp-downgrade command the ap returns the following error message
examining image...
%Error opening (Timed out)
archive download: takes 62 seconds
lwapp_image_proc: unable to open tar file
I feel that I should note that the only time I can ping the AP is if it's connected to the management interface of the controller. The same goes to my computer which is acting as the tftp server. Any ideas on what is wrong here would be a great help. Thanks

Here is a copy of the running-config. Now I do not have the the controller hooked up to a switch. Both the laptop and the ap plug directly into the controller. Could this be the problem?

Look at the filename extension. It's a .TAR. You need to unpack this using the command "archived download-sw flash:ap3g2-k9w8-tar.152-2.JB3.tar".
Once the unpack is complete, reboot the AP.

Error when converting a 1602i to Autonomous

Hi all... just looking for a little help. I'm trying to convert a 1602i to an Autonomous OS.
I downloaded: ap1g2-k9w7-tar.152-2.JB.tar
Performed the following:
1.) Set PC LAN address to 10.0.0.5
2.) Start TFTP Server and point to folder holding the Autonomous IOS.
3.) Set timeout to 30 seconds
4.) Made a copy of the IOS and renamed it to: "ap3g2-k9w7-tar.default"
5.) Connect AP Ethernet port to Laptop LAN port using a Cat5 cable.
6.) Reset AP power holding the MODE button until the LED blinks Red (~20seconds) and then release the button.
The AP reloaded, and started downloading the IOS from the tftp....
Then I get the following message: (a lot of additional extraction messages I didn't paste)

I've tried both processes multiple times and have finally gotten to what appears to be the end. However after I reset the AP, I get an error when the AP starts loading the IOS from flash.

Converting an 1130ap back to standalone mode

I have a 1130ap currently in lightweight mode. Can someone tell me the how to convert this back to standalone mode?
Thanks

Hi Chris,
Try this method using the AP's mode button and a TFTP setup;
Here is a conversion method;
Reverting the Access Point Back to Autonomous Mode
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps430/prod_technical_reference09186a00804fc3dc.html#wp161272
You can convert an access point from lightweight mode back to autonomous mode by loading a Cisco IOS Release that supports autonomous mode (Cisco IOS release 12.3(7)JA or earlier). If the access point is associated to a controller, you can use the controller to load the Cisco IOS release. If the access point is not associated to a controller, you can load the Cisco IOS release using TFTP.
Using a TFTP Server to Return to a Previous Release
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 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, and c1240-k9w7-tar.default for a 1240 series access point.
Step 4 Connect the PC to the access point using a Category 5 (CAT5) Ethernet cable.
Step 5 Disconnect power from the access point.
Step 6 Press and hold MODE while you reconnect power to the access point.
Step 7 Hold the MODE button until the status LED turns red (approximately 20 to 30 seconds) and then release.
Step 8 Wait until the access point reboots, as indicated by all LEDs turning green followed by the Status LED blinking green.
Step 9 After the access point reboots, reconfigure it using the GUI or the CLI.

Roll-back LWAPP to Autonomous IOS and retain a configuration

I have a WLC-4404-100 with a mix of c1131 and c1232 access points associated. All my AP's are LWAPP (either ordered as LWAPP or converted from IOS to LWAPP), and I have just realised that I have more than 100 AP's to be rolled out. I know that an LWAPP AP can be converted back to Autonomous IOS, but cannot seem to find a definitive explanation about the configuration state of the AP after it has been converted back to Autonomous IOS.
I wish to convert some of my AP's which have already been setup to connect to my controller back to Autonomous IOS. My problem is that they are already rolled out and installed in ceiling spaces etc, and are not easy to physically get to and plug into the console. When I issue the 'config ap tftp-downgrade tftp-server-ip-address filename access-point-name' command on the controller CLI for an AP, when it boots up into autonomous IOS, what is the configuration state? Is it a blank "factory default" configuration, or does it retain a configuration based on how it was configured on the controller? Will I be able to remotely access the AP over the wire at all?
Thanks in advance.

Try the following steps:
LWAPP to Autonomous
Requirements:
â¢ Image file (such as c1200-k9w7-tar.122-15.JA.tar);
â¢ AP is connected to the Wireless LAN Controller; and
â¢ AP can ping the TFTP server where the image is located.
Procedures:
1. Find out what AP needs to be converted from LWAPP to Autonomous mode by entering the following command:
sh ap summary
2. Enter the following CLI command on the Wireless LAN Controller:
config ap tftp-downgrade
3. The AP will download the software and after a reboot, the AP will be on Autonomous mode.
Does this help?

What TFTP server are you using? Try either 3CDeamon or TFTPd32. Also make sure the MD5 has matches for the image you download. This will verify the image is indeed good.

Converting LAP back to autonomous failed

I've a 1130 AP which doesn't boot it's LWAPP image from flash. So I tried to convert it back (with tftp server and so on) but after the message that it's using the "reset IP" it tries again to start the (corrupt?) image.
Is there a way to stop this boot cycles and to check boot parameter? Or any other ideas?

Hi Guys,
Today, I have converted the Cisco LWAP (1140) to Autonomous AP successfully.
Follow the below steps:
1. Download your 1142 image from Cisco --- I chose c1140-k9w7-tar.124-21a.JY.tar (Autonomous IOS Image for LWAP 1142)
2. Copy your 1142 image to your TFTP folder and start your TFTP server
3. Hook up your console cable and open up PuTTY
4. Plug in your 1142 into your POE/non-PoE (use Power Chord) switch.
5. Create one DHCP Pool in 10.0.0.0/24 network and let the LWAP and Laptop takes the IP from that DHCP Pool.
6. When it boots and your DHCP server gives it an IP address, you'll get a prompt (*your AP needs to get to your TFTP server)
Use PuTTY and enter in the commands in bold and modify the address of your TFTP server and image accordingly.

Autonomous IOS longevity

Does Cisco plan to support an autonomous IOS solution long term? I notice all the new enterprise gear is CAPWAP controller based only. Will the down level line of APs support for stand alone versions continue for very long? (Like AIR-AP1262N-A-K9) I realize they cannot integrate CleanAir and other advanced features into a stand alone AP.

Just to add to my post is an excerpt taken from the Release Notes of the autonomous IOS, version 15.2(2)JA for the 2600 and 3600 (both WAPs can use the same file).
Note Although 2600 series access points support CleanAir when connected to a wireless LAN controller, standalone 2600 series access point do not support CleanAir.
And a few lines below this is this:
Site-Survey Only Mode for 3600, 3500, and 1550 Access Points You can install Cisco IOS Release 15.2(2)JA on Cisco Aironet 3600 and 3500 Series access points and on 1550 series outdoor access points to perform site surveys. This release runs on these access points with limited functionality. You can manually adjust these settings on the site-survey access points: •Channel on each radio •Transmit power on each radio•Enable and disable the radios•Manually set basic and supported transmit rates•Enable advertised cell power in beacons to client to enable DTPC for doing active surveys•Enable and disable SSID broadcast in beacons •Enable open authentication

How to convert Mac .app applications to IOS .ipa applications

There is a game on the computer that i would like to convert and make to an IOS application. I know some things will need to be added like arrows and stuff so the creature in the game can move.. but im wondering if i can convert a .app to a runable .ipa for iphone

What you appear to be asking is that someone write the code for you, or at least do a substantial amount of the work for you. I doubt anyone here will want to do that. If it's just a case of getting some minor help with what you've already begun, that might be a different matter. (If that's the case post here) You need to get a book on C++ and learn how to do it yourself.

Convert from LAP to autonomous mode issue

I bought some after market 1242's for extended coverage in my warehouse. The current 1242's I have are all set up in autonomous mode.
When I console into the AP's I bought they are looking for a CAPWAP -Controller obviously from the previous environment. There is nothing on the AP or in the sh version showing LAP.

I cant seem to be able to reset these to where they aren't looking for the Controller. I can login with the default username and password Cisco/Cisco but I cant do an erase. I get the privileged command prompt but cant do erase star or a config t??? Is there something I'm missing here that I need to to?
So far these commands have worked::
debug capwap console cli
debug capwap client no-reload
So can I downgrade or go back to autonomous mode or do I have to reload an IOS again? I don't have a license so my options there are limited.
Any ideas??? Thanks

HI,
As pe your post:
System image file is "flash:/c1240-rcvk9w8-mx/c1240-rcvk9w8-mx
This is lightweight image. for this image you need controller.
If you want to use as autonomous AP. Then you must convert it to Autonomous mode.
Autonomous image code : k9w7

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

DEVICE IS NOW IN AP MODE HOW CAN I EASILY LOAD ANOTHER IOS............................TELL ME SOME AP MODE COMMANDS

Please goes a long way matey :-).
The experts can probably correct me here but it looks like your IOS is in "flash:/ap3g2-k9w7-mx.152-4.JA1/ap3g2-k9w7-mx.152-4.JA1" and your AP is trying to boot from: "flash:/ap3g2-k9w7-mx.152-4.JA1/ap3g2-k9w7-xx.152-4.JA1"
So firstly, try using the following command:
set boot flash:/ap3g2-k9w7-mx.152-4.JA1/ap3g2-k9w7-mx.152-4.JA1
then issue the 'boot' command and see if that works.
If not, grab a copy of your IOS and setup a TFTP server connected to your Access Point. You may need to turn off your personal firewall when you do this.
Follow the instructions at this link which explain it on an 1142 which should be the same method:

Convertion from Lightweight to Autonomous access points

Is it possible to convert AIR-LAP1121G-E-K9 Lightweight access point to autonomous access point.

Hi tm,
You can convert AIR-LAP1121G-K-E9 to autonamus access point,pls do follow the procedur
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 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, and c1240-k9w7-tar.default for a 1240 series access point.
Step 4
Connect the PC to the access point using a Category 5 (CAT5) Ethernet cable.
Step 5
Disconnect power from the access point.
Step 6
Press and hold MODE while you reconnect power to the access point.
Step 7
Hold the MODE button until the status LED turns red (approximately 20 to 30 seconds) and then release.
Step 8
Wait until the access point reboots, as indicated by all LEDs turning green followed by the Status LED blinking green.
Step 9
After the access point reboots, reconfigure it using the GUI or the CLI.

Converting 1242AG LAP to autonomous

Hi,
I have a second hand air-lap1242AG (basically aironet 1200series - configured to lightweight mode). I would like to configure it in a small business. We have a Linksys WAG354G (Wireless-G ADSL Gateway), which has 4 ethernet ports. It has a really small range. The problem is now, to connect those two. I tried already resetting the aironet(holding mode for 3 sec, also tried to rewrite the image-holding it for 20s), but when I look on my linksys DHCP-page, it still shows me the same client host name of the aironet, as when I first plugged it in. Its the name of the company, it belonged to, before us.
The error reported by the LEDs is - Alternating green, red , and amber, when you look here: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6521/products_installation_guide_chapter09186a008079b730.html
So I guess, since the DHCP is working fine - the IP adress is assigned, the only problem is, that the previous settings are still active - which means it doesnt allow to connect to the new router/controller.
What can I do about that? Converting to autonomous mode? I didnt try it, because it seems extremely complicated to me. Im not an IT-pro.
Thanks a lot
Solved: Sorry for bothering, I thought I wont be able to do it. The explanation of the conversion is so stupid! I managed to do it through TFTP. First I was confused with the renaming, but I finally got it, that in the guide its only an example...
bye

You need to download an IOS software and rename it to c1130-k9w7-tar.default... Just like what it states in the log.
