Cisco 1200 IOS AP deleted config, won't boot up

[ogaldona]

I was working with a 1200 AP running IOS and I did a write erase and reloaded it so I could start anew. Now the AP does not boot up and is looking for a config file to TFTP. If I need to upload a file, what information does it need to have?

You may want to take a look at this in order to set the Access Point back to factory defaults

The problem with this link is that it is for VxWorks and not IOS.

After much more surfing on cisco.com, I found this website that was perfect:

hope you got it working, by the way, that link is for IOS and VxWorks. IOS was halfway down the page.

In the TOC, it's the 4th module in the "Access Point" section.

Thank you for the link but it was not a problem of getting the password reset it was that the image was corrupt so it was a bit more involved in what I had to do, unfortunately.

The link that I found explained and resolved my issue perfectly.

Thank you again for your assistance.
