Aironet 1522 standalone mode

[juan-castillo]

Hi!

I need to perform some probes with aironet 1522 AP. I want to probe them without the mesh capability,so, is there anyway to put the 1522 AP in standalone mode?

Thanks!

Not that I am aware of, the 1500 series is purely LWAPP and needs a controller...

ok! Thanks!

I have read that was possible using the apropiate IOS.

Hi Juan,

Mmm, Mike is probably refering to this document:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/1520/quick/guide/ap1520qsg.html

Standalone here refers to the AP, a standalone device, but it is still LWAPP and needs a controller.

Getting to the cisco web site, wireless download section, does not show any IOS standalone code for the 1522... which is logical, the 1522 is to be a mesh AP, which implies AWPP, which implies LWAPP... I am afraid that you will need a controller...
