I don't see where it's marking an error. Try the /r /o

Thank you so much for your reply.

Please find the screen shot with the command error. It doesnt seem to recognise the command parameter download-sw.

Here is the commands I tried.

archive download-sw /f /0 tftp://a.b.c.d/c1250-rcvk9w8-tar.124-21a.JA2.tar

archive download-sw /overwrite /reload tftp://a.b.c.d/c1250-rcvk9w8-tar.124-21a.JA2.tar

archive tar /x  tftp://a.b.c.d/c1250-rcvk9w8-tar.124-21a.JA2.tar flash:

(a.b.c.d is just for hiding the actual ip)

Thanks.

Thank you for your valuable comment. I will try them on the AP and get back to you.

I really honour your efforts and will rate your comments as I complete with the commands.

I was actually trying to convert it from Autonomous to LWAPP.

Thanks.

Hi Mohammed,

For the LWAP conversion, use the recovery image ( e.g  c1250-rcvk9w8-tar.124-21a.JA2.tar). We can use the same command on the autonomous AP priviledge mode.

AP#archive download-sw /force-reload /overwrite tftp://10.10.10.1/c1250-rcvk9w8-tar.124-21a.JA2.tar

Try this .

Regards

Dont forget to arte helpful posts.

[Scott Fella]

The mode button can be used to convert either way.

Thanks,

Scott

Dear Mohammed

I am also trying to join this AP to controller, can you please share me the OS file. This device is EOS then we can not download from Cisco.
