AP 1552 in Mesh mode (MAP)

EvaldasOu
Level 4
Level 4

Hi guys!

I'm trying to become famillar with Cisco Mesh AP's deployment. As I know RAP's (Roof-top AP's are AP's with Ethernet/Fiber connection to the network). I connected these AP's via L2 switch , they can reach WLC and everything looks fine.

No I want to connect few MAP's to my RAP's. But of course firstly we will need to set-up IP addresses for these MAP's? But how? There is no "configure terminal" option at all ( on mesh AP console) .

MeshAP#?

That is correct. How many are you trying to connect. Maybe try one at a time. I didn't put the antennas on when I staged the APs either.

Take a look at the logs from the wlc and the console to.

Mhm, I'm using now one RAP and tow MAP's . All the information that I see in WLC logs is related just with physical AP (RAP).

Console into the map. Also the guide has some debugs commands you can run.

I tried it also Scott. Looks like everything what I needed to do there was to attach external antennas for these AP's.

I just wanted to hide from a big radiation

Everything works now. MAP's associated to the RAP, and the other RAP's (which are not connected via ethernet at this moment) also connected to the RAP. I can see everything on the WLC

Thank you Scott once again!

No problem. At least you have it working.
