Wireless Point to Point Cisco 1242ag

Hi
Is it possible to set up some sort of authentication where the root bridge and non-root bridge only associate with the opposites MAC address?

Have a look at the link provided.  There are ways of adding encryption and passwords to your point-to-point bridge.  My recommendation is to go this way.  It's alot quicker and easier to maintain.

  • PoE for Cisco 1242AG and 1310G Access Points

    Dear All,
    we purchased a Cisco 1242AG and a 1310G Access Point and in the DataSheet it was specified that these APs support Power-over-Ethernet. The problem is we don't see any RJ-45 port in either AP which could be used for connecting the AP to an PoE Switch. Can you please tell us how we can connect these APs to an 802.11af compatible PowerBridge (by Intermec) ? Thanks.

    Hi Thorsten,
    The 1242 should be good to go but the 1310 is powered quite differently. Have a look;

    1300 Series Power
    Power
    The access point/bridge receives inline power from the Cisco Aironet Power Injector (hereafter called the power injector). Dual-coax cables are used to provide Ethernet data and power from the power injector to the access point/bridge. The power injector is an external unit designed for operation in a sheltered environment, such as inside a building or vehicle. The power injector also functions as an Ethernet repeater by connecting to a Category 5 LAN backbone and using the dual-coax cable interface to the access point/bridge.
    The power injector is available in two models:
    Cisco Aironet Power Injector LR2 standard version (included with the access point/bridge)
    48-VDC input power
    Uses the 48-VDC power module (included with the access point/bridge)
    Cisco Aironet Power Injector LR2T optional transportation version
    12- to 40-VDC input power
    Note The power injector and the power module must not be placed in an outdoor unprotected environment. The power module must not be placed in a building's environmental air space, such as above a suspended ceiling.

  • Which cisco wireless bridges support point to multipoint

    hi all i am really new to wireless. i am looking for information as which cisco wireless bridges support point to multipoint configuration.
    i have a cisco 1230G access-point will it support the same .
    any help would be great.
    regards
    sushil

    The Cisco 1300's and 1400's support point-to-point and point-to-multipoint. The 1230G can only support point-to-point (i think)

    Any ideas?

    Fascinating just reading about your setup. I have a WRT350N and have noticed that it will drop its speed, sometimes down to 1Mbps. It seems to do so at about the same time every day, but usually comes back to speed in about 5 minutes. In my experience, the Apple TV will disconnect if the speed falls this low. Try monitoring the Linksys with Netstumbler, Vistumbler, or just in the Windows Network utility.
    Check the "lease obtained" and "lease expired" times for your router to see if that is when the network fails. I've just finished reading an angry thread over at the Linksys forum about the WRT330N where someone mentioned that the router wasn't renewing its lease.
    "I cannot set it run off automatic DHCP from the WRT330N, the router will not assign it an IP every time the lease expires, causing me to have to manually set an IP on the Print server. That's annoying. Having the router drop IP's to individual machines after 12-48 hours...very annoying."
    http://forums.linksys.com/linksys/board/message?board.id=Wireless_Routers&thread .id=67412
    If that is the problem, then I would consider setting up a Static IP address for your Apple TV. You can do that through the user interface -> Settings -> Network -> Configure ... (Quite intuitive as you only have change IP address and the subsequent details remain the same.)
    My router assigns IP Addresses in the ranges of 192.168.1.100 ->149. The idea here is to choose an address outside of that range but is not greater than 192.168.1.253 (and should not end in the number 1). You shouldn't have to change the linksys router as long as 50 clients are assigned in that range. You'll have to figure that out by accessing your router webpage at browser address 192.168.1.1 -> the default password is "admin" (without the quotes).
    Good luck.

  • 3502p AccessPoint support MESH and Point-to-Point Wireless Bridging with Outdoor Antennas??

    I need to know if 3502p with outdoor antennas supports Point-to-Point Wireless Bridging??

    The 3502p is only used for arenas and or stadiums. These are different units than the 3500's and 3600's. So no they can't be.
    You can use Cisco Aironet 1400 Series Wireless Bridge for a wireless link between two buildings (1km) to extend your LAN. For more detail you can go through the below link.

  • Autonomous Wireless Point-to-Point bridge

    I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
    I am having difficulty finding documenation on hwo to properly configure Cisco 1552e AP's in Autonomous Mode as Point to Point wireless bridges with just utilizing the wireless link as a backhaul, not client access. We have to go with autonomous because we plan on having Local Mode ap's (CAPWAP) terminated behind the MAP ethernet bridged port. Here is our topology:
    Local Network (Controller resides on this network)   ---------> L2 Switch ----------> RAP --------> wireless bridge <---------- MAP <----------> L2 Switch ----> Clients\CAPWAP AP's (servicing clients)
    We want to pass all the VLANs we will need for both the wired network and CAPWAP network.
    Thoughts?

    This is extremely useful and the exact configuration we are looking to do.
    Is there a limit on the number of Bridge-Groups that can be used (essentially number of VLANs)?
    Also are you familiar with running Mesh AP's in autonomous mode? Do we lose any features other than management by moving them from CAPWAP to Autonomous?
    We have to run these in autonomous because our MAP end will run 3602i local mode APs, so lame that Cisco wont support Capwap over CAPWAP based mesh bridge.

    Under Wireless/Security how do you have the Wireless Isolation configured?
    Wireless Isolation (within SSID) should be disabled to allow wireless computers associated to the same SSID to see and transfer files between each other

  • WAP2000 Wireless-G Access Point (Setup Help)

    Hi,
    We have a wireless-g access point typically (and previously, in this case) used for a small business. We were given the device for free and wanted to reset the device to use as our wireless router at home. First and foremost, can a wireless access point double as a home wireless router? I was told that only one computer/laptop at a time can connect to a wireless access point, unlike a wireless router which allows multiple devices to connect to a wireless home network at a time? Is this true?
    Second, because the device is not new, we no longer have the setup instructions. Upon resetting the device (holding down the reset button for 10 or more seconds), we were unable to access the WAP2000 online setup page for a username and password. The device is being picked up by our macbooks and shows up in the Airport as "linksys-g." However, we are unable to access the setup page or communicate with the access point. We have tried typing http://198.162.1.1/ in our address bar, but have had no luck.
    Do you have any suggestions as to how to set up the device? Also, can this device double as a router that will allow multiple laptops and devices (i.e. sony playstation) to access and use the wireless network simultaneously.
    Thank you for your help.

    Sam,
    First yes you won't to factory reset the unit. You should hold down the reset button longer than 30 seconds and no longer than 45.Once this is back to factory default, the current ip address should be 192.168.1.245 , you will need to statically assign your pc an address in 192.168.1.1 /24 range and make sure you are plugged directly into WAP2000. Now you should be able to access the AP. Default username = admin password = admin

    Above is a quick start guide for reference.
    Now just configure accordingly.

  • How can I get CDP neighbor information from access point reports in Cisco Prime 2.0

    How can I get CDP neighbor information from access point reports in Cisco Prime 2.0?  I have looked through all the reports and I cannot find a report that gives me the CDP neighbor information of an access point.  I thought that information was in there, however I cannot seem to find it.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi
    You can get this from an inventory report in PI (Select Report Type AP). Here is an example of PI 2.1 works for me. Once you export this into excel you can sort based on controllers & filter the single controller connected AP you want.

  • Point to point wireless using 1310 and 1231 on each site

    Hi,
    I have an implementation right now with wireless point to point bridging connection. I installed a 1310 with 24 dBi external antenna on one site and a 1231 AP/bridge with 24 dBi antenna on the other site. Has anyone of you tried this set-up. I have no problem with the connection and pinging is ok. However when I tested the throughput I only got 2Mbps in which the distance between the two sites is only 2 kms. I am hoping to have a throughput about 20 Mbps and up.

    When you configure the AP radio, you must consider the type of clients that are present in the wireless network. If the AP has an 802.11g radio and the WLAN has only 802.11g clients, you can set one or more data rates to Basic and all other data rates to Enabled However, if you have a mixed environment of both 802.11b and 802.11g clients in a WLAN network, you must ensure that only the rates that 802.11b supports are set to Basic (or Require in GUI). If data rates that the 802.11b radio does not support (such as 12 Mbps) are set to Basic on the AP radio, the 802.11b clients are not able to associate to the AP.
    Alternatively, you can configure the AP radio to select data rates on the basis of range or throughput. When you configure the AP radio to select data rates for range, the AP sets the lowest data rate to Basic and the other rates to Enabled. In this way, the AP can cover a wider area. However, the data rate comes down as the distance from the AP to the client increases. If you configure the AP radio for throughput, the AP sets all data rates to Basic. This configuration ensures a consistent throughput throughout the coverage area.

    Can I use Cisco AP 1240 for a point to point connectivity of 2 sites having a distance of approx 2 km

    If it is outdoor use the following

  • Cisco 1310 point to point encryption?

    Howdy.
    We have two Cisco 1310 devices working currently in point to point mode. I have a couple of questions regards this..
    1. What is the best method to encrypt the point to point links between the two? We would like to use local passwords for this.
    2. We have two point to point links on each device. Would we be able to configure one link for encryption without dropping our connection to that device and then configure the second one?
    3. Is there any sample guide for point to point encryption?
    Many thanks..
    Taff.

    1. What is the best method to encrypt the point to point links  between the two? We would like to use local passwords for this.
    ANS - We can use Ciphers TKIP as the encryption and WPA-PSK as the authentication.
    2.  We have two point to point links on each device. Would we be able to  configure one link for encryption without dropping our connection to  that device and then configure the second one?
    ANS - I request you to brief me out on "we have 2 P2P on each device" does this mean we have 2 SSID configured??
    3. Is there any  sample guide for point to point encryption?

  • Troubleshooting wireless point to point

    We have a wireless point to point link using two 1310 bridges between our campus and a remote building about 5 blocks away.  Recently the link has started to go down often during the day.  The following is what I am seeing in the logs:

    SNR - 25 dBm higher is better.
    Signal Strength - -65 dBm and lower is better.
