aironet 1200 upgrade to latest IOS software failed

[kuroskit9]

when I applied the upgrade through the web intreface and rebooted, the three lights are always on indicated a continuous boot, when I connect thru the console port I see only only very primitive commands such as c copy file, l load file, s system status etc, I do not obatin the ap> command prompt and I cannot locate any references to these console commands on cisco's site, any suggestions or pointers on where to look? TIA

Hello,

your IOS upgrade failed and you are in a basic, minimal IOS CLI. To get out of there, you need to download an IOS image to your AP, and to do that you have to do a basic configuration:

> set IP_ADDR=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

> set NETMASK=yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy

> set DEFAULT_ROUTER=zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz

> tftp_init

> tar -xtract tftp://YOUR_TFTP_IP/YOUR_IOS_FILE_NAME flash:

> set BOOT flash:/YOUR_IOS_FILE_NAME

> boot

this should do the trick. If you want to check your current values, just enter the "set" command alone.

Hope this helps.
