hello
At the moment i have ~30 AP's like 1131AG. Always for simplicity i was preparing new one like:
- saving config from existing one "Current Startup Configuration File"
- edit ( changing IP, Name, Radius IP )
- upload to new device.
Now i am not able to buy 1131AG (end of life) and i got offer for AP 1602.
My questions:
- can i upload configuration to AP 1602 as above using config from 1131AG ? ( even if i should adjust some config manually after upload )
( or i will have to config from scratch ?)
- just to confirm: On 1131 i am using Two RADIUS server, two SSIDs, vlans - is it still possible on 1602 ? or should i worry about loosing some capabilietes ?
P.S appologize in advance if those are "lamer" questions - i tried to find it prior post but with no luck.

Hi Tomas,
Hope you are talking about autonomous AP's here and if then you should be fine with this.
- can i upload configuration to AP 1602 as above using config from 1131AG ? ( even if i should adjust some config manually after upload )
ANS:- Most likely the 1602 AP you would be getting the will be having LWAP IOS (which works only with WLC). IF so you will have covert this autonomous mode and try configuring this as AP1131AG configuration with very little modifications. You could ask your reseller if they can get you a autonomous ios 1602 AP rather than lightweight then your life would be easier. Else you could use below url procedures to convert from LWAP to autonomous.

Hi
Sorry for not being clear, thats correct those are autonomous AP's( i have no controller ).
Thats really good news for me as i wont have to config from scratch ( not so straighforward with all the options required - specially on new model)
Thank You very much
