Logging devices connected to autonomous access points

Is there a way to log the devices that connect to a particular SSID of an autonomous access point?  If yes, will you please show me a configuration example that will allow me to send that data to a logging server? If possible I will need to do this on 1250, 1240 and 1140 series access points.
Thanks!

I suppose this all depends on "what" excatly you are wanting to log.  I haven't tried this, but you should be able to send SNMP traps to a remote SNMP receiver (client associations or failures, interfaces status, etc).  Take a look at the AP IOS Configuration Guide, see what you think, and whether or not the SNMP traps you can send are of value to you.  I have anchored this to the Configuring System Message Logging section: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/12.4.25d.JA/Configuration/guide/scg12.4.25d.JA-chap21-msg-logging.html#wp1002608
If you are wanting to capture more granular information, such as session lengths, data traffic, internet usage, etc; for monitoring or reporting, that would probably require an appliance of a higher level.

  • Asking to enter a device password in the access point but I don't have an access point

    I installed the Intel Proseet Wireless Client and upon connection to my Linksys router a wizard comes up asking me to "enter the device password to my access point or external registrar".  It displays an 8 digit number in the device password field.  My only option at that point is to go "back", "next" or "cancel".  If I click "next" it eventually fails to connect to my wireless router.  I do not have an access point installed.  Only the router and cable modem.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    If its asking you for the Access Point password when you are trying to connect to your Wireless Network, It means you need to input the Wireless Security Key which you have setup on your Router.
    When you are trying to connect to your Wireless Network and it ask you for the 8 digit password, you need to Flip your router upside down and below you will find a 8 digit pin number (0000-0000) it will be in these format. Just input the 8digit pin without (-) and click on Next and it will connect you to your wireless network. Once successfully connected to your Network wirelessly you should be able to go online Wirelessly from your Computer. 

  • 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.

  • Forgetting WiFi password, and not connecting to wireless access point automatically??

    I'm using (until tomorrow when I get a MacBook Pro which HOPEFULLY won't have the same problem) a pre 2007 Macbook which is running Mac OS X 10.5.8. It was previously owned by my brother and passed onto me about 4 months ago. Within that time I've had nothing but problems with the WiFi connection!
    The first issue would have to be that if I put the MacBook to "sleep" rather than turning off, it disconnects from WiFi during that process. Fine, that's to be expected. But when I wake it up, it's not only disconnected, but I have to re-enter my WiFi password in order to reconnect. Is there some reason that it will not remember the password through this sleep process? Turning off and on normally works fine, and it connects automatically, but not when it sleeps.
    The second problem is equally confusing to my mind. In my house, we have a wireless access point upstairs (we have 3 floors after having our attic converted). All characteristics (name, password etc) are the same on the access point as on the main router downstairs. Every device in our house, included a couple of android phones, a tablet, and two laptops running various versions of Windows, all connect to this wireless access point with no problem at all. None of them have been "set up" to do so, in that they detect it as part of the same network and join it automatically. But for some reason, my MacBook won't do it? At first I would assume that perhaps it's due to the age of my MacBook and maybe some flaw in the old operation system, but my iPhone 4S running iOS 7 doesn't connect to this access point either. Is this some weird security thing that Apple use in their devices??
    To make things even more frustrating, the MacBook's issue of remembering the WiFi password means that when I come back downstairs and into range of the main router, it's forgotten the password again and I have to re-enter it to reconnect.
    Can some PLEASE offer some kind of assistance? I'm getting a brand new MacBook Pro tomorrow and if it's an OS issue then I assume I won't have it anymore, but I'm desperate to solve this issue one way or another considering this machine will be staying in the family and in this house so will pressumably have the same issues.
    Thanks in advance guys! If I've not given enough info, just ask

  • Types of Autonomous Access Point in the Cisco Market.

    Hi All,
    I am quite new to the wireless technologies. I need some help in understanding the basic models of Cisco wireless Hardware available in the market (Enterprise Level).
    From my initial studies in past 24 hours what i understand is that Autonomous AP are the wireless AP which does not require Controllers. they needs to be configured on their on. So far i could find Cisco Aironet C1130 AG models which can be used as Autonomous Access Point.
    Can anyone suggest any other Cisco AP which can be used as Autonomous Access Point?
    Can 800 Series wireless routers be used as Autonomous Access Point?
    Do we have any ISR Modules which can be inserted on a router to have a Autonomous Access Point?
    Thanks.

    I have short listed the routers in 800 series: 891W, 892W, 892F-W, C887VA-V-W, 861WDoes the command you have mentioned make these routers as Autonomous?
    Of the 800 series (I have no knowledge about the 1900W), there are only five sub-models that have built-in wireless.
    850W & 870W both have autonomous-only AP.  These two models are already end-of-sale.  So we scratch those two out of your list.
    860W, 880W and 890W both have builti-in AP.  The APs can operate EITHER in autonomous or controller-based.  You can easily convert the AP from either controller-based to autonomous (and vice versa) by using the router command I've posted in my previous response.
    A simple guide when dealing with the 800-series router.  Notice that we end our models with a "0"?  This basically is the sub-model.  The one's that you've listed ends with different digit, like a 1, 2, 7.  This is the "flavours".  7, for example. are xDSL WAN interface.  If it ends in a 1, the WAN interface is Fast/GigabitEthernet.  If I remembered correctly, the 2 has a fibre optic port as a WAN interface.  The 887VA means it's a xDSL with Annex "M", I think, and it's geared up for voice.
    It would be great if you could point out some models or PID of AP which will work in ISR G2 2900 3900 routers.
    Go here.  I'd recommend the 2600 access point.  There are two sub-models:  one with internal antenna (ends with an "I") and one with an external antenna (ends wth an "E").   If you want the "E", be aware that you need to purchase the appropriate antennas separately.  If the APs are to be used indoors, use the "I".
    Go through this other document:  Wireless LAN Compliance Status
    Make sure you get the appropriate AP with the correct regulatory domain of the country where the AP is going to be installed.  For example, if the AP will be installed in USA, then get the one with the regulatory domain of "SAP2602I-A-K9" where "-A" is the regulatory domain of the USA.

  • How do I see the clients that are connected to the access point?

    Hello,
    In Wireless Control System (WCS), how do I see all the clients that are connected to the Access Point? I can do a particular search that if I know the mac address. But what I really like to know is that which clients is connected to the network. That means it sould be able to show me, example, Client A is connected to AP 1. The problem in WCS is that I can't do that. Can some please advice how I am able to do this? Thanks.

    Two ways:
    First:
    Under monitor, go to Access Points, then chose the target AP and click on it to open a menu, go to the Current Associated Clients tab.
    Second:
    User the search tool on your upper right corner, type in the target AP name, execute the search, on the results, click view list, on the list chose you AP and then go to the Current Associated Clients tab.
    Enjoy.
    Phil.

  • Idle Users on Autonomous Access Points

    Is there a way to set an idle timeout value on Autonomous Access Points? I have been researching and I see it is possible to do this on a WLC using Lightweights but the only timeouts I can find regarding Autonomous are Session/Holdoff and Re-authentication timeouts.
    I would like to set an idle timeout so that only inactive clients will be disassociated however if I set a Re-authentication timeout for say 15 minutes, then someone who is genuinely using the wireless network for that period of time or longer would have to re-authentication also - which is something I would like to avoid.
    Thanks.

  • The connection between your access point, router, or cable modem and the Internet is broken.

    At random points throughout my laptop usage, I randomly disconnect from the internet and receive these 2 messages:
    1. The connection between your access point, router, or cable modem and the Internet is broken.
    2. The default gateway is not available.
    It fixes the issue for a short period of time, but constantly happens. This is really starting to annoy me. I have no problems on any other internet, and other people i live with are connected with no issues to the internet. I have tried a number of solutions
    online that has "worked" for others to no success such as resetting the router, fooling around with command prompt, and changing the performance settings to not drop internet when low on power. Does anyone have a solution for my technical problems?
    I am running Windows 8.1 on a Lenovo ideapad that is less than a year old. I will be honest I am not a very knowledgeable person when it comes to computers, so please use simplified explanations.

  • Chromecast with Autonomous Access Points

    I have a client that has a Chromecast, with a 1010 and a 1130 Autonomous access points. I can not get the Chromecast to work. Can someone tell me how to enable mDNS, or Multicast on these access points? 

    Hi Abhishek,
    On which software code of Autonomous AP, you can run above command ?
    We prefer you to check these commands & make sure they works in the products mentioned in this thread before responding.
    Otherwise your/Cisco credibility lost based on the responses you make, if they are not related to the question asked.
    As per below, this command is applicable for IOS based controllers & not applicable to Autonomous AP.

  • IPhone 5 only able to connect 1 wifi access point

    My phone will successfully connect to any access point I attempt to connect to. However, if my phone has ever connected to another access point, I must explicitly forget the previous access point in order to connect to another one. If I attempt to connect to a new access point without first forgetting the other access point, it will continually reject my password as invalid for the new access point. As soon as I either forget the other access point (or perform iOS network reset operation), I can connect fine to the new access point.
    This is hugely frustrating. Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Has anyone found the issue to this? I'm having the same exact problem and have tried all the resets

  • Cisco autonomous access points and WCS

    Hi, I'm trying to add my autonomous access points to WCS which I have done but I'm not getting any performance data or errors etc.
    Does anyone know if WCS support autonomous access points or do I have to use WLSE to get this info
    Thanks

    Greetings the WLSE will be needed to manage autonomous access points. The WCS application is geared towards LWAPP and Controller based implementations.
    For a comparison please see the following document.

  • User unable to connect to new access point AIR-CAP3502P-S-K9

    Hi Guys,
              In my branch there are 8 access points[ AIR-CAP3502I-S-K9 ] connected to Wireless controller which is been working fine since the beginning.. I had to add two more access points to this branch and after the failure, i realised this Access point [ AIR-CAP3502P-S-K9 ] is latest and it needs the minimum image 7.3.101.. So i did a upgrade on WLC 5508 and all 10 access points have joined successfully...
    Issue am facing is when NEW users come under AP 9 and AP 10 get associated successfully, but the old users(Projetc Manager) who been in the branch for very long and able to get associated with other AP's [1 to 8] gets associated successfully with all old AP's but not with the new AP's..
    Could please some one advise, why this strange behaviour... I googled for answer but am not getting any right solution...

  • HP photosmart 7520 connects to wrong access point and looses connection

    I recently installed a remote wireless access point in an outbuilding.  I'm using a router with the same SSID and password as my main router with the same security settings.  Only the main router is set to issue IP addresses.  The system works fine with two laptops, a desktop, an Ipad and an Ipod.  It provides continuous connections from my house to the outbuilding.  Only the HP Photosmart seems to be an issue.  At first the system worked fine then after a couple of days it lost its connection.  I tried to the Wireless Setup Wizzard with no success.  The Wireless Network Test results indicated that MAC address filtering may be enabled.  This is not the case, MAC filtering in not enabled on either router.  The next morning the printer was fine and connected again.  I suspect that it is detecting the remote router and trying to connect through it.  During the setup a warning came up indicating that two routers were detected with the same SSID and Password and that the printer might try to connect to the wrong router.  It should not matter since the remote router connects and is issued IP addresses through the main router.  The only difference in the routers is the BSSID.  This uses the same number as the  MAC filtering address, so I suspect this may be the problem.  Any suggestions on a work around.  The only thing I have found that solves the problem is turning off the remote router.

    Hello there -
    Is it possible your new remote access point only supports the 5Ghz band for N connection, or that it's connected to your primary router through a wireless N connection in the 5Ghz band?  The 7520 only supports 2.4Ghz N connections.  If your primary access point supports both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz, that is likely why it's able to connect there while it cannot connect to the new access point.  Many newer laptops and iPad/pods utilize 5Ghz N, which would explain why they can connect and your 7520 cannot.  I'd recommend moving the 7520 closer to the primary router and using AirPrint to send your jobs.
