Cisco Air-CAP1602I-A-K9 first configuration help

[rameshkrishnan]

Hi,

Need help in configuring Cisco Aironet Air-CAP1602I-A-K9 , i have got the IP address of the interface, it cannot access from the web browser.

not even , i cant enter to the global configuration mode in CLI. use all commants like "Configure", "Configure terminal" 

[Leo Laohoo · Accepted solution]

The product ID prefix of "CAP" stands for "controller-based AP".  If you need to use this AP like an autonomous AP then you'll need to convert the AP from running controller-based IOS to autonomous IOS.

[Saurav Lodh]

Follow the controller based ( lightweight ) Ap to Autonomous AP conversion from

https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/thread/14405

[Moin Ilyas]

Once converted to Autonomous Image, please refer to the following links:

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/access_point/15-3-3/configuration/guide/cg15-3-3.html

Hope that helps.

Hi Ramesh,

Did you tried this method:

archive download-sw /force-reload /overwrite tftp://10.0.0.1/ c1240-k9w7-mx.124-25d.JA2.tar

https://rscciew.wordpress.com/2014/05/07/access-point-conversion-lap-to-aap-and-vice-versa/

Try this instead of Mode button.

AS per this output there is no IP address assigned.

AP24e9.b34b.e72d#show ip interface bvI1
BVI1 is up, line protocol is up
  Internet address will be negotiated using DHCP

1. Please assign IP address manually to APs Ethernet interface(10.0.0.3/24)

2. Your Laptop must have ip as 10.0.0.5/24

3. Connect laptop and AP via Ethernet cable.

4. If you can ping then run the archive command "

archive download-sw /force-reload /overwrite tftp://10.0.0.5/ c1240-k9w7-mx.124-25d.JA2.tar

"

Hi all.

Only new to this. So I have a Air-Cap1602I-N-K9, version info is Software AP1G2 RCVK9W8-M, Version 15.2(2)JB, which I understand is a lightweight, So my question is which Autonomous AP IOS Software/version should I use, and the process to download it.

Cheers

Robert
