blue indicator light on 1131

[lcaruso]

The ringed indicator light on the 1131 normally glows green. What is indicated when it is glowing blue instead? Is this a power issue?

Hi,

If AP is in LWAP mode then please refer to : http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/1130/installation/guide/113h_c4.html#wp1030793

LIGHT GREEN = Access Point is operational, but no wireless clients are attached

BLUE = Access point is opertional and atleast 1 wireless is associated to the AP

ORANGE = Power issue at the access point

RED = Firmware issue

I have an combination of lights that are not named in the Cisco 1131G-A-K9 manuals,  The Status LED is a constant pink.  The ethernet is blinking green with standard activity.  I've been unable to get the SSID to broadcast despite trying different software versions (currently c1130-k9w7-tar.123-4.JA2) and double-checking my configurations.  I've checked the flash file system.  The image's were updated using HTTP.  I've scoured the internet to no avail.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Console into the AP and reboot the AP and post the output.  That will have the reason why its like that.

Thanks,

Scott

This is autonomous, so do you have it in a 802.af PoE switch

If its a power issue, take a look at this doc

No it's being powered by the 48V adapter.  The ethernet runs to a Cisco 4507 which I believe does not support POE.

[Scott Fella]

You have ssid's configured for the AP?  can you post your show run-config?

Thanks,

Scott

Alright.  So at first I just configured the SSID.  Now when I exit out of the web browser and open up a telnet session there are configurations that I never even made ( the ip RADIUS source, and the SNMP).  I've been careful not to have two management connections open while making changes.

And when I went into NETWORK INTERFACES > RADIO0-802.11g > SETTINGS (tab) before I could apply the "ENABLE" button it was asking me to put in the RTS Threshold and the DTIM, which I've never had it do.  But perhaps it was because Im using an earlier version than before.  Random question:  Do the system software and bootloader versions have to be the same?

[Scott Fella]

I usually use the command line for the confiugration, so really have no clue what the gui will ask.  As far as the bootloader, as long as its not too far off, then that is fine.  I have never had to upgrade the bootloader, but thats just me:)

Can you post your show ip int brief

Thanks,

Scott
