Is CISCO AP 1200 mountable on the ceiling ?

I am unable to find any reference to mounting the AP 1200 on the ceiling.
Does anyone know or have any experience
with mounting the AP 1200 on the ceiling.
We need to install about 22 of them all on the ceiling. I would appreciate a quick reply. Thanks in advance.

Hi Seshan,
The 1200 AP's can be mounted on the ceiling using the bracket that shipped with the AP's. Have a look at the instructions;
Cisco Aironet 1200 Series Access Point Hardware Installation Guide
Mounting Instructions
From this doc;

Cisco Aironet 1200 wireless network very slow

I have a simple wireless network set up, 2 - Cisco Aironet 1200 AIR-AP1220B-A-K9 wireless access points with 2 dBi Diversity Omni directional Ceiling Mount Antennas. They are the only devices connected to a Multitech Routfinder router, the WAN side the router is connected to a dedicated DSL connection. They are powered by AIR-PWRINJ3 power injectors. The WAP get the IP address from the DHCP in the router.
When connecting to the wireless network it runs very very slow, the signal strength is excellent and the connection speed is 54 mbps. But when opening a web browser it takes for ever to load a simple page like msn.com. If I connect the notebook directly to the router it runs very fast. We have tested with several notebooks and have the same problem. When I view the available wireless networks in range the only two that show up are the two Cisco 1200 WAP.
I have done the following with no improvement:
Change the channels from auto to 6 on one and 11 on the other.
Reset to factory defaults.
Update the firmware to c1200-k9w7-tar.123-7.JA2.tar
Replace the 802.11b radios with 802.11g radios AIR-MP21G-A-K9.
Disable the Aironet extensions.
Following is the configuration from one of the access points (before the firmware update):

Thanks for the info.
The documentation say not to switch from auto to full duplex or half duplex when using inline power, well I think it says the AP may reboot. I may have tried half duplex before I upgraded the firmware.
While upgrading I disconnected the AP, used a patch cord to connect it to the router and pluged the power directly into it to make sure the wiring to the AP was not the problem and it did the same thing.
However, when trying to upgrade the firmware it took ~ 45 minuets to upload the image and filed a couple of times retrying. I connected the AP to the notebook directly with a crossover cable and it uploaded in about 45 seconds.
That got me to thinking that there may be a problem with the router so I have replaced it with a Linksys.
In the mean time the DSL went down yesterday so I have not been able to test the new setup.
The cables are T568B

Hello,
I want to control client associations when AP load is high.
Is there an MIB object that enables/disables client associations?
I have searched the supported MIBS, but i could not find anything.

An improper combination of power level and antenna gain can result in equivalent isotropic radiated power (EIRP) above the amount allowed per regulatory domain. Here is the URL which indicate indicates the maximum power levels allowed with the Cisco integrated antenna for each regulatory domain and also contain configuration setting.

Cisco Aironet 1200 LAP Issues - LAP to Autonomous Mode

Greetings! After purchasing 4 of the Cisco Aironet 1200 G Series WAPs, I'm now running into a slight issue with them.
I received these last week with the understanding that if I didn't have the Cisco controller device, I could convert them from being the Lightweight Access Point, back to Autonomous mode with an IOS.
With this, I checked the documentation that came with the device and found the "Upgrading Autonomous Cisco Aironet Access Points to Lightweight Mode" or http://forum.cisco.com/eforum/servlet/NetProf?page=netprof&forum=Wireless%20-%20Mobility&topic=Getting%20Started%20with%20Wireless&needs_authentication=yes&CommCmd=MB%3Fcmd%3Dadd_discussion%26mode%3Dshow%26needs_authentication%3Dyes%26location%3D.ee7c7c3.
From there, I followed the instructions listed under Converting a Lightweight Access Point Back to Autonomous Mode. Before the rename of the file, I checked the device and found AIR-LAP1242G-A-K9 for the Model No.
One of the Cisco Certified admins here was able to obtain the latest build for the IOS for the device or c1240-k9w7-tar.123-8.JEB1.tar. Per the instructions, I renamed the file to coincide with the model of the device.
I followed the instructions from there, and it looked as if everything was going well. However, after the upgrade, I'm running into an issue with the following:
File "flash:/c1200-k9w7-mx.123-8.JEB1/c1200-k9w7-mx.123-8.JEB1" uncompressed and installed, entry point: 0x3000
executing...
At this point, the device just locks up. All lights are lit green on the device. According do the documentation, it should reboot and from there, I should be able to access the web interface by IP.
I've tried to perform the upgrade again using the same IOS build, but the same thing happens with the lock up.
At this point, I'm assuming the issue is with the build of the IOS that I have and I may have to look at getting an older build. However, before doing so, I thought I would post something here to see if anyone had an idea.
I may have needed to refine my searching of the forums, but wasn't able to find anything in relation to my issue. If there is something out there, I do apologize for the post and will happily refer to any current information.
If you need any further information in relation to this, please let me know. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi Jeffrey,
Reverting the Access Point Back to Autonomous Mode
Have a look at Step 3
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.

Can't scan Cisco Aironet 1200 Access Point with Spiceworks

I'm trying to scan two Cisco Aironet 1200 AP's using SNMP and Spiceworks gives the following error:
"Error creating SNMP session"
I'm using a community string of public and also tried community as both are setup in the device.
SNMP is enabled in the device.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Connecting the ipad to a data projector when projector is on the ceiling

I am trying to connect the ipad to a data projector when projector is on the ceiling. I have the VGA cord but it is way to short ...is there another cord to connect the both?

It is my understanding that the dgital adapter will give you full video mirroring over HDMI from the iPad 2, although there are some reported models of TVs and projectors that have issues, but that analog signaling, such as VGA, is limited to apps specifically written to provide access to that type of video connection.

How to check if Cisco WSA is already blocking the malicious sites?

How to check if Cisco WSA is already blocking the malicious sites?

Depends on what you mean, but in general what you did will not work.
The usual intent of RMI is to have several processs running and all of them use one process as the repository.
A static value is only visible in one VM instance thus it will not be visible in another process.
So in that situation you could check if the the server socket that the RMI using is open. But just catching the exception, presuming that you catch the correct one, is also sufficient.

Is there a "Cisco Recommended" wireless headset for the SPA 504G Phones?

Hello, Is there a "Cisco Recommended" wireless headset for the SPA 504G Phones?
Please let me know. Thank you, Paul

Hi Paul,
My recommendation would be the "Plantronics Savii 700 series" which have worked consistently and without issues, you need the HL-10 Handset lifter with them which work with the SPA-500 series.
The Savii series come as DECT for when you are using it with a phone (Waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better reception than Bluetooth) and Bluetooth for when you have it synced with a computer at the same time, it also comes with combination headset connectors so you can have one over the head, or around the neck or even just hanging over the ear.
I fully recommend them with the 500 series phones.
Cheers,
David.

Cisco 3640 - Error : Uncompression of the image failed.

Having a problem booting my Cisco 3640 Router and get the following errors in boot "rommon" mode:
Error : Uncompression of the image failed.
invalid compressed data--format violated
Error : zip decompress failed
Does anyone know what might cause this and what I can do to get it booted up into IOS?
Thanks, Scott

Update - I have already tried uploading a new image to flash: using the rommon> xmodem command and got the same results. Thinking that my flash SIMM card was toast, I then tried installing the IOS image from a PCMCIA Smart card. Again, got the same errors. Anyone know what might cause these errors and how to fix them?

Need the Cisco ASA5520 SYS OID for the LLDP protocol

Hi :
I need the Cisco ASA5520 SYS OID for the LLDP protocol so that I can create the network connection between Cisco ASA5520 and the 3rd party networking device in this 3rd party network management management system.
Can anyone help on this?
I tried to search the web and got some LLDP MIB files but they all cannot solve the problem. What I think and I need to have now is the SYS OID number for this Cisco ASA5520.
I know that the SYS OID for ASA5520 is 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.670. Now I need is the SYS OID for its LLDP protocol. Can someone help on this?
Many thanks!
tangsuan

Hi Afroj Ahmad:
I think it is not due with command line. It is the lack of OID information for Cisco ASA5520 to be able discovered by 3rd party Network Management System.
If I am not wrong, the ASA5520 should have been configured correctly for providing SNMP to the 3rd party network management system (NMS) and as such, the NMS is then able to capture the the SYS OID for ASA5520 is 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.670 from the ASA5520.
The SNMP configuration is as below:
snmp-server host inside 172.16.0.82 community public version 2c
snmp-server host inside 172.16.8.50 community public version 2c
no snmp-server location
no snmp-server contact
snmp-server community public
snmp-server enable traps snmp authentication linkup linkdown coldstart
snmp-server enable traps syslog
snmp-server enable traps ipsec start stop
snmp-server enable traps entity config-change fru-insert fru-remove
snmp-server enable traps remote-access session-threshold-exceeded
The 3rd party NMS can capture the product OID from ASA5520 after given the ASA IP address to the NMS. It is the LLDP OID that is not included in the product OID to cause the 3rd NMS cannot link up the LAN connction between the ASA and the 3rd party switch. There is no LLDP configuration in ASA command. I believe the LLDP should be provide externally either by key in manually or upload the MIB file to the 3rd party NMS. I have tried also uploading few MIB files but all not succesfully done.
I think the direct method is just key in the LLDP OID inside the 3rd party NMS system so that the 3rd NMS can embed the LLDP information into its operation kernel then the NMS can link up the LAN connection between the Cisco ASA and its switch.
Many thanks!

What is the AC classification (1200 - 3200) for the AirPort Extreme?

WHat is the AC classification (1200 - 3200) for the AirPort Extreme?

Not sure that I understand your question.
The AirPort Extreme does not support AC3200 if that is what you are asking.
1300 Mbps is the theoretical maximum speed of an "ac" wireless connection on the AirPorts.

Can the Cisco UCS 6120XP direct attach the EMC CX4-120 by fibre protocol ?

Hi all
I have two question for Cisco UCS
Q1: Can the Cisco UCS 6120XP direct attach the EMC CX4-120 by fibre protocol ?
Q2: I know the UCS 61XX Series support the Cisco SAN Switch(MDS).But we are only Brocade san switch ,
so UCS 61XX Series supoort Brocade san switch ?
Thanks , I really want to know the information .

Q1: The 6120s run in NPV (N_Port Virtualization) mode which means it acts as a proxy for the blade vHBAs and doesn't participate in flogi (fabric logins). When a fabric switch runs in this mode it requires an uplink to a faber switch for flogi and zoning. Due to this you cannot direct attach the the 6120 to an array's front-end fiber ports.
Q2: Yes you can uplink the 6120 to a Brocade fabric as long as the Brocade supports NPIV.

Any tips of physically attaching apple tv to a projector that's suspended from the ceiling?

I have a really convenient 1.5 foot hdmi cable that I want to attach my apple tv to my projector with, but the projector is suspended from the ceiling. The idea is that it will be out of the way and truly "wireless". Only problem is I'm worried about it falling, breaking, etc. I was thinking velcro tape might work? Any ideas? Thank

lovethisstuff wrote:
Cool. After inspecting it some more, there is an entire flat side on the projector that has no vents for fans, so I think the velcro idea will work fine. I'll let you know if there are any interference issues. I hope not!
I'd be more tempted to attach it to the projector mount than the projector as even if there are no vents you don't really want to have a 'not by design' hot spot in the projector as AppleTv itself will generate heat. Personally I'd probably run a long HDMI cable from wherever the HDMI equipped devices and AV amp were. Maybe this is more for presentations or something via Airplay not a home theatre environment.
Make it accessible enough that the remote will control it (reboot by holding menu and down navigation keys together for several seconds). If you use Remote app on iphone/iPad you won't be able to restart easily if you need to with that (the only other way is to unplug/disconnect power).

Can I use Cisco Connect if I change the default router IP address?

I am adding my E3000 into an existing network behind a SonicWall firewall. I am using an address scheme of 192.168.168.xxx When I change the router address to 192.168.168.10 and disable DHCP in Cisco Connect, I am left with only being able to access the router through the web interface. This seems pretty lame; I've read other threads on Web vs. Cisco Connect. Is there a quick fix that will allow Cisco Connect to still find the router after I've made (just) these two changes?
--David C

Yes you still will be able to use the Cisco Connect software if you have changed the Routers IP address, But if you change the Router password of Wireless Security then you wont be able to use Cisco Connect software.

Looking advice about mounting 3500i access points (AP) to the ceiling

Hello, looking your help and advice about mounting 3500i access points (AP) to the ceiling ...
The ceiling is an Armstrong suspended ceiling with 24" mineral fiber drop ceiling...
What are recommendations and best practice - mount AP under or above the ceiling?
Initially, I considered the mounting options from Oberon Inc. (p/n :1064-00), but given the difficulty by purchasing this product in my country have to consider other options...
I must say that the decision to mount the access point to the ceiling like this:
does not really to my liking...
Now I looking a version of the mount АP with flush-mount kit for tiled ceilings (AIR-AP-BRACKET-3=)...
What are your recommendations?

What are recommendations and best practice - mount AP under or above the ceiling?
Do NOT install the WAP inside the ceiling cavity (hidden from view) as it will cause signals to degrade.
There are some stuff inside the ceiling cavity that could cause signals to misbehave.
