Enable HTTP Server

[sampersis]

I have a Cisco Aironet 3702E and I want to configure it as standalone unit in my network. This AP is a brand new and has not been deployed in a network and has not been controlled by an AC previously. I have tried to find out how to enable HTTP on this AP but in vain. And also when I try to execute any command in enable mode I get the following error message:

AP58f3.9c39.118b#capwap ap hostname CAP3702E
ERROR!!! Command is disabled.

Appreciate if you can point to any documentation that might help to configure this AP in ROOT mode and enable HTTP and configuration of this device.

Your AP is running controller-based IOS.  You need to convert it to load autonomous IOS.

Thanks. The Cisco Partner that have sold this AP to us has not provided the right software.

It is strange. I have purchased a brand new AP, but I cannot download software from Cisco. I should have a service Contract.

Kind regards,

Sam

Hi,

many thanks. The issue was related to wrong software was shipped with the AP. Unfortunately, there is no channel to complain about this. We contacted ATEA which is Cisco Gold Partner in Sweden. Initially, they were reluctant to help us in spite of we had asked for an autonomous AP. Later, they agreed to provide software, but then it was like we-are-doing-you-a-favor. It is really strange.

Kind regards,

Sam
