HOW DO I UPGRADE AIR - LAP1131AG TO AN AUTONOMOUS

Please, how do i upgrade air-lap 1131ag to an autonomous one that will not required buying controller again.

-    Initially console in to the LAP and issue the ' debug lwap console
cli' or "debug capwap console cli" from the AP# prompt . (This gives us capability to enter the config mode of AP and use it like Autonomous )
-     Now assign an IP address to Fast Ethernet interface of the AP which can be reach from the LAPTOP/DESKTOP . (Basically in the same range or able to ping and telnet)
-    Download the IOS image: www.cisco.com downloads for 1131AP series.
Cisco.com --- Click on the Support tab in top--- Then click Download software------ Choose Wireless --- Then select AP from product list-Then choose the AP model - choose IOS image
-    Open the TFTP server (We used TFTP D32 ) (make sure that the TAR file's name is shown as in the web site, because sometimes it gets renamed to "Download .tar" and if that happens you need torename). Browse the TAR file and select it and click ok.
-     Go to enable mode of AP and enter the command:
-    archive download-sw /overwrite /force-reload tftp://ip address of TFTP/image for download

Just received a new Ipad Air, but IOS version is older than current IPad...can not load backup...How do I upgrade IOS version?

In order to upgrade the new Air 2, I had to select "set up as new" from the menu. So, after the IOS upgrade is done, how do I "restore" the data that is backed up on icloud from my old Ipad? I don't see a menu item for that . . .

AIR-LAP1131AG issue

I've connected an AIR-LAP1131AG to a 3560G and can see the port being granted power in the logs but nothing else - nothing in CDP, port is showing as down/down. The Status LED on the top of the AP is showing as blue/green, which according to the docs means it's initializing the Flash filesystem, but it just sits there. I've installed 12 APs and two of them have this issue. I know they all worked a few weeks back because i upgraded the software on them to 7.0.98.0 before shipping them to site.
Any ideas as to what could be the cause? Could it be a cabling issue? These two APs are on the same floor of a building and i'm wondering if the cabling has been botched. I can't imagine both of them developing a hardware fault, but the status LED may suggest otherwise. Any thoughts appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Jason

That did the trick! See below - good port on both switches followed by the APs on g0/48... Thanks for your help!

Does WiSM 6.0.196.0 suport AIR-LAP1131AG-N-K9 in H-REAP mode

Hello,
I have WiSMs running code version 6.0.196.0. I have to deploy AIR-LAP1131AG-N-K9 in H-REAP mode.
Q1. Does AIR-LAP1131AG-N-K9 require CAPWAP or can run off of LWAPP?
Q2. Does anyone know how to find out if a WLC is running LWAPP or CAPWAP?
Q3. If one has to convert LWAPP to CAPWAP, how is it done?
Thanks
Bo

Hi,
Q1. Does AIR-LAP1131AG-N-K9 require CAPWAP or can run off of LWAPP?
A1. The AP will run CAPWAP as soon the WLC is running a CAPWAP image. There is nothing special to do on the AP, once it joins the WLC, the WLC will check the image on the AP and if using a diferent one, the WLC will push the correct image to the AP that matchs the WLC version.
Q2. Does anyone know how to find out if a WLC is running LWAPP or CAPWAP?
A2. CAPWAP was introuduced in WLC version 5.2 and all versions above are running CAPWAP software.
•If your firewall is currently configured to allow traffic only from access points using LWAPP, you must change the rules of the firewall to allow traffic from access points using CAPWAP.
•Make sure that the CAPWAP UDP ports 5246 and 5247 (similar to the LWAPP UDP ports 12222 and 12223) are enabled and are not blocked by an intermediate device that could prevent an access point from joining the controller.
•If access control lists (ACLs) are in the control path between the controller and its access points, you need to open new protocol ports to prevent access points from being stranded.
Q3. If one has to convert LWAPP to CAPWAP, how is it done?
A1. On the APs nothing has to be done. Once the WLC is running CAPWAP software, it will automatically push the corresponding AP software to the AP.
WLC runs CAPWAP if the software version is earlier then 5.2. WLC version 5.2 and all versions above are running CAPWAP software.
HTH,
Tiago

Bogus "Upgrade AIR Runtime" messages

I am developing using Flash Builder 4.5.1 on Mac, debugging via USB on a Motorola Xoom. Every time I run or debug my app on the device, I get the following dialog box:
Upgrade AIR Runtime
Your device has an older version of Adobe AIR installed. Would you like to upgrade it to Adobe AIR 3.1.0.4880?
However, according to the Xoom application settings screen for AIR, version "3.1.0.488" is already installed. Answering "yes" to the dialog has the same effect as answering "no" -- the app runs, but the next time I run it I get the same prompt. Is there anyway to get Flash Builder to recognize that the attached device is really running the latest version? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling AIR, but the dialog persists.
Thanks!

There is a way, I did it before, but I am not sure how I did it

Your Solid State Drive and having enough space inside your Macbook Air & Pro
Solid State Drive usage premise, or the “more space / upgrade SSD” question
There have been questions posed and positions taken by many people who are trying to use their Macbook Air or Pro’s solid state drive (SSD) as a mass media storage device, for either pictures, videos, massive music collections or all three combined; but this should not be the working premise of a ‘limited’ SSD and its use.
In which, it’s the case of those users with either 128GB, 256GB, or even 512GB of internal SSD space, that have or are running “out of space”, that questions are raised. The immediate premise of some users can sometimes be “(how to / if) upgrading my SSD” when in fact in nearly all instances another approach is the logical and sensible one that needs to be looked into and exercised.
Any Macbook containing a SSD should be idealized as a ‘working platform’ notebook containing all your applications, documents, and weekly or bi-weekly necessary files. All collections of media files such as pictures, music, and videos, unless directly needed should be kept off the notebook and on an external hard drive or likewise. While the ‘working platform’ premise is also the case with larger internal conventional hard drives of 1TB+, its implementation isn't as critical except in terms of data protection.
Realistically, you should at most coordinate roughly 20 to 25% of your total SSD space to all audio-video personal use media (picture / music / video collections), leaving the remaining amount on an external HD.
Nobody should consider any notebook a data storage device at any time under any circumstance, rather a data creation, sending, and manipulation device; and in the case of a SSD, this is more important for purposes of having sufficient working space on the SSD and reducing SSD ‘bloat’ in which cases someone is wrongly attempting to use the SSD space as a large media storage nexus.
The rare exception to the collective usage and premise of SSD use in which a much larger SSD is truly needed are for those in video and photography professions that require both the extremely fast speeds of the SSD and the onboard storage for large and or many video and photography files. However this also falls under the premise of a ‘working platform’ for such peoples rather than the intent of many who are using the SSD as passive and static data storage for media files very infrequently needed or accessed.
All on-notebook data collections should be logically approached as to necessity, and evaluated as to whether it is active or passive data that likely doesn’t need to be on the notebook, allocations of space-percentages to as-needed work and use, apportioning space for your entertainment media, and questioning whether it should it be on the notebook for more than short-term consumption.
Considerations should be made in the mind of any user in differentiating the necessary system data (System hub) comprising the Mac OSX, applications, necessary documents that both must and should be on your internal SSD, and that of the users personal data (Data hub) comprising created files, pictures, music, videos, PDF files, data created or being created and otherwise, that likely unless being used soon or often should be parked on an external hard drive for consumption, or temporarily loading onto the internal SSD.
You both can and should purchase whichever SSD size you need or see fit, but even in the case of the largest of SSD, unless use-considerations are made, and SSD spaces are allocated as should be the case indicated above, one can easily and immediately run into this quandary of “needing more internal SSD space”, in which instance a different approach in usage must then be implemented.
However it is almost always the case, that such large media files are wanted to be stored internally rather than actually needed, in which case the external HD is both prudent as well as necessary. Additionally costs per MB are infinitely less on an external HD than an internal SSD in any consideration of data expansion needs.
A Professional Example
In the case of a Macbook Air or Macbook Pro Retina with ‘limited’ storage on the SSD, this distinction becomes more important in that in an ever rapidly increasing file-size world, you keep vital large media files, pics, video, PDF collections, music off your SSD and archived on external storage, for sake of the necessary room for your system to have free space to operate, store future applications and general workspace.
You should also never be put in the position of considering “deleting things” on your Macbook SSD in order to ‘make space’. This is especially what your external HD is for.
Professionals who create and import very large amounts of data have almost no change in the available space on their notebooks internal SSD because they are constantly archiving data to arrays of external or networked HD.
Or in the case of the consumer this means you keep folders for large imported or created data and you ritually offload and archive this data for safekeeping, not only to safeguard the data in case your Macbook has a SSD crash, or gets stolen, but importantly in keeping the ‘breathing room’ open for your notebook to operate, expand, create files, add applications, for your APPS to create temp files, and for general operation.
Slim USB3 1TB external hard drive
External Hard Drives
External hard drives are both extremely cheap and regardless of the size of your internal SSD (or even internal hard drive if the case), you need an external hard drive with your SSD equipped Macbook for several reasons:
1. Data backup and protection.
2. Redundancy for important data.
3. Necessitated ideal space for large media files for collections of pictures, videos, and music etc.
While ever changing in price, typical portable 2.5” external hard drives in USB3 run roughly $65 for 1TB or $120 for 2TB small portable USB3 hard drives. Such drives range in thickness between 5mm and 15mm, with recent improvements in storage of 500GB drives in 5mm profiles.
There is almost no premise in which a small 12mm thick 1 Terabyte USB hard drive cannot be taken along with any Macbook as an external large storage extension inside any Macbook carry case or pouch. Typically such external HD profiles are not much bigger than a deck of cards.
External hard drives are a foregone necessity for purchase with any Macbook for at the very least Time Machine backups, data redundancies, and ideally for large media storage.
