PoE auto switchover with Cisco 1252 Access Point.

Dear All
I have a network for Managed Wireless using Cisco. This is a new network for me.
I am in problem with Cisco Access Point 1252. My AP's are connected to a PoE Switch. And Cisco AP's are also connected Powered with also Power Adapter with UPS backup.
But problem is if I disconnect power source of AP Power Adapter , AP is not getting up with PoE. PoE is up only when POWER PLUG of AP ADAPTER is physically pulled out from Socket.
Question is if it is possible to make automatic Failover by PoE when Power source of AP ADAPTER is down ?? I mean no need to PULL OUT  POWER PLUG of AP ADAPTER.
Waiting for your rely.
It is very urgent .
Thanking You
Subrun.

Hi Suburn,
1- yes it is possible to do failover without unlupping the cable of AC adapter. When power on ACS adapter is off, then the faiolver happens.
2- with regards to POE, if your switch supporting enhanced POE?
Powering the Aironet 1250 Series Access Point with Cisco Enhanced PoE
Cisco  Enhanced PoE was designed for customers who want to install new  PoE-enabled technologies that require greater than 15.4W per port to  function at full capability, such as wireless technology based on the  IEEE 802.11n standard. Cisco Enhanced PoE provides the full power  requirements for dual-radio modules and eliminates the need to run an  additional cabling drop or insert a separate power injector. Support for  Enhanced PoE is currently available on a variety of Cisco Catalyst® switching platforms. For more information on Enhanced PoE, visit http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/switches/epoe.html.

    Hi,
    Can someone help me for configuring N-Series band on Cisco 1252 Access Point in IOS Mode.
    Thanks

    Firstly you need to use WPA2/AES or OPEN authentication.

  • Problem with Cisco 1240AG Access Points

    I have a Cisco 1240AG Access point (P/N ? AIR-LAP1242AG-A-K9).
    It has come in the lightweight mode.
    I just want to know whether I can put it to the autonomous mode.

    Hi Indika,
    Here is a conversion method (look most of the way down the attached doc);
    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.
    From this doc;

  • Mac mini not keeping connection with Cisco wireless access point

    I am trying to get my wife's Mac Mini to keep it's connection with the wireless network at her school. They are using a Cisco access point (not sure of the model) which works fine with my G4 Powerbook and the numerous Macbooks being used there, but for some reason her Mac Mini drops the connection after 4 or 5 minutes, at which point she needs to log right off for it to reconnect (as opposed to just turning the card off and on again). I have already gone through the deletion of the Networkinterfaces.plist file, and recreation of the Airport card profile process, but this only kept the interface active for about 36 hours, then it was back to the same old problem. At this point I am thinking "flakey card"...before I ship it off to Apple, can anyone offer any other possible solutions?

    After spending time on the phone with a Apple support technician, he indicated that the Iphone has a compatibility problem with the wep key encryption that the Cisco appliance uses. I find this disturbing being that Cisco is the biggest in network gear. What's UP Apple? We need SP1 for the IPHONE!!!

  • IPhone will not sync with Cisco Wireless Access Point

    This is unbelievable, i just bought a $1000 phone and it wont sync with a Cisco AP. I can sync it with a DLINK? I there a specific list of Access Points it will connect to. If so thats complete bullsh*(. Also, is there going to be a firmware update soon to fix these problems. Can you tell that im a little upset. I just saying that if someone spends $1000 dollars on a phone it should be working pretty dam good. Anyway can someone offer any suggestions?

  • Cisco 1252 Access Point Read Write Account

    HI
    i sent out a Cisco 1252 AP to one of my sites and i removed the default cisco account from the device before i shipped it and now when i try to get into
    it i can't .I can get logged in through telnet and it's working fine but i just can't get into the web interface. is there a way to re add the cisco account through command line so that i can log into it.
    Thanks in advance

    I tried that and it still dosen't work, do you think that i will need to just send them another AP fresh out the box with the account in it.

    Regards,       

    Hi Niham,
    You can try few things to troubleshoot this -
    1. check the reachability of Radius server from your wlc (ping).
    2. verify the IP address of Raduis server configured on wlc.
    3. wlc in the Radius server ?
    4. Shared Secret must be same on wlc and in raduis server.
    Plz do not forget to rate useful post.
    Thanks

  • 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

  • Cisco 2602 Access Point - Support

    Dear Team,
    Could you please advise, if Cisco 2602 Access Point supports IPS and CleanAir along with Access Point feature or does it need to work as standalone to have these functions enabled ?
    Regards,
    SID 

    Might as well add my 2¢
    In order to have CleanAir, you need a WLC.  In order to do IPS, wireless its called wIPS, you need an MSE and NCS or Prime Infrastructure.
    A standalone access point (autonomous) is just a dumb AP and can't perform any of those functions:)
    Thanks,

  • Cisco 1310 Access Point Rommon Mode

    Hello,
    So I have a Cisco 1310 Access Point that is in Rommon mode. I have the image on the Access point but I did not use the archive download command to extract it. When I use the
    tar -xtract flash://c1310-k9w7-tar[1].124-25d.JA2.tar flash:
    command It gets close to the end but doesnt finish saying there isnt enough space. When I try to delete the file using delete flash://
    c1310-k9w7-tar[1].124-25d.JA2 it wont allow me saying I do not have permission. I tried the rmdir command as well but had no luck. It wont allow me to use the tags /f /r for forceful and recursive, it doesnt recognize them. Anyone know how to delete a directory in rommon mode on an the 1310 access point?
    Thanks

    The delete /recursive /force flash:/ is what I use.  You might try to delete these files also:
    ap:delete flash:private-configap:delete flash:private-multiple-fs
    Thanks,

  • Bootup order on Cisco Aironet Access Points

    Hello folks 
    Could you please help me in clarifying the bootup order on Cisco Aironet Access Points 
    Does the SNMP Agent on the device start before the Startup config is copied to Running Config ?
    Because everytime the Cisco Aironet Access Point restart , SNMP trap  is generated from Admin down WLAN interfaces (Dot11Radio1/Dot11Radio0) mentioning "Administratively down " . 
    So my best assumption is that 
    Access point Restarts - > SNMP Engine starts -> Startup Config is copied to Running config -> Interface is made admin down -> SNMP Trap is sent 
    Is that correct?
    Please help !
    Anup

    The Clean Access Manager (CAM) manages out-of-band Clean Access Servers (CASs) and switches through the admin network. The trusted interface of the CAS connects to the admin/management network, and the untrusted interface of the CAS connects to the managed client network.
    When a client connects to a managed port on a managed switch, the port is set to the authentication VLAN and the traffic to/from the client goes through the Clean Access Server. After the client is authenticated and certified through the Clean Access Server, the port connected to the client is changed to the access VLAN. Once on the access VLAN, traffic to and from certified clients bypasses the Clean Access Server.
    In most OOB deployments (except L2 OOB Virtual Gateway where the Default Access VLAN is the Access VLAN in the Port profile), the client needs to acquire a different IP address from the Access VLAN after posture assessment.
    For Real-IP/NAT-Gateway setup, the client port is bounced to prompt the client to acquire a new IP address from the admin/access VLAN.
    The below URL describe the configuration steps needed to set up your OOB deployment:
    •Configure Your Switches
    •Configure OOB Switch Management in the CAM
    •Configure Access to Authentication VLAN Change Detection

  • Cisco 2500 controller with aironet 1600 access point

    Hi,
    This my first wireless project, and I have a few questions about the installation :
    1- some of the access point will be installed in branch offices, connected to the controller through the main MPLS netwrok ( is that possible).
    2- If for any reason the connectivity between the AP and the controller get disconnected what will happend to the users connected to the access point.
    3- can I have two vlan on the Aironet 1600, the first one to be connected to the controller through the MPLS netwrok and the second for users to public internet.(internet break out).
    Thanks,

    Yes that setup will work. What the others are trying to explain is authentication if your WAN goes down. If your AP's are setup for FlexConnect and you are indeed using AP groups, (using 802.1x) you need to have a radius server and a backup AD sever to allow for authentication to still happen if the WAN goes down. If you have resources centralized, then when the WAN goes down, everything else goes down and no new authentications will take place and any re-authentications will fail with 802.1x.

  • Cisco 1242AG Access Point proper configuration

    Hello everyone,
    Here is the situation:
    Recently we decide to create a small WLAN in our business.We choose the Cisco AIR-AP1242AG-E-K9 with 2x2.4GHz 2.2dbi Swivel Dipole Antenna.
    For better managability a new routable VLAN (ID:20) added to our Router with IP 192.168.55.1 and SNET 255.255.255.0
    Next, I made the followings configurations in the autonomous AP through WEB Console:
    Static IP:192.20.10.35, SNET:255.255.254.0, GWY:192.20.10.200
    VLAN1 (Native) and VLAN20 (Radio0-802.11g) added into Services.
    I set the Encryption Mode to None for VLAN1 and Cipher AES CCMP for VLAN20
    Into Server Manager I defined a new RADIUS server 192.20.10.35 (AP IP) and a shared secret and left the default ports for Authentication and Accounting (1645 and 1646). Also, in Default Server Priorities section I set as Priotity 1 both for EAP and MAC authentication the Access Point IP (Radius Server) 192.20.10.35.
    In Local RADIUS Server General Set-Up, I add as current network access server (AAA client) the same IP and shared secret like the ones I use during RADIUS server configuration above. Into Enable Authentication Protocols I left checked only the LEAP and MAC. Also, into Individual Users section 2 new users created with text passwords.
    Into SSID Manager a new hidden SSID created for interface Radio0-802.11g, associated with VLAN20 and into Client Authentication Settings section I left as accepted Method Open Authentication with MAC authentication and EAP. Also, I left the Use Defaults option both for EAP and MAC Authentication Servers in Server Priorities Section and finally into Client Authenticated Key Management section I choose Mandatory for Key Management and checked the Enable WPA option.
    I can ping both the AP and VLAN20 IPs from any PC which is a member of the native VLAN
    As wireless clients I use 2 Motorola MC5574 with Windows Mobile 6.1 professional. Both of them have a Jedi WLAN adapter configured with the followings:
    IPs:192.168.55.10 and 192.168.55.11
    SNET:255.255.255.0
    GWY:192.168.55.1
    Also, a unique profile has been created on each one of them to be used for AP association-authentication. Each profile has been configured for WPA2 Enterprise with AES and LEAP and the predefined user credentials (those defined into AP for Individual Users)
    The problem:
    Clients association with AP is always succesful but, Authentication fails and I can't ping from the clients AP IP,  VLAN20 IP, neither each other.
    What am I missing here? I'm sure that it is somenthing quite simple but although I tried several different setups (i.e. WPA2-PSK, WPA-PSK even with TKIP) I always end up without a proper solution for ping inability.
    Thank you in advance for any help
