AIR-CAP 1702I-D-K9 configuration

[sreejith]

I tried to configure a new AirCap 1702I-D-K9. 

It has an IP address from the local dhcp server.

But I could not login via putty ssh or windows telnet.

the error for ssh is access denied 

I entered username / password as Cisco / Cisco

also I did telnet , the error is

Password required, but none set

Please advice me...Help me

CAP means the AP is lightweight and requires a controller to configure the AP.  You would not be able too ssh into the AP unless your configure that once the AP has joined a controller. If you don't have a controller, then you need the AP in autonomous mode and that requires you to have access to download the image so you can convert that AP from lightweight to autonomous. If you need instructions on the conversion, just search on the internet for Cisco lightweight to autonomous conversion and you will feel me many links and videos. 

You will need to have access to the downloads which happens if you have a support contract.

Hi Scott Fella,

I am using Netgear GS 110TP-200INS, to communicate with AP & Network.

Is it possible to use this  Netgear device instead of Cisco LAN controller.

Please advice..

[Scott Fella]

You can use any switch as long as it can power up the AP or you have an ac adapter and or power injector to power the AP.

Hi Scott Fella, 

Is Netgear GS 110TP-200INS can replace Cisco LAN controller ? 

If yes, please help me to configure my AP.

It can't replace a Cisco controller. You need to convert that AP to autonomous to be able to use it as an AP.
