enabling internet

[vishalpatil86]

Hi,

i want  to configure my cisco 1242ag series ap(autonomous) to work as internet gateway.

how can i connect it to network so that it will work as internet gateway for users.

Hi,

The AP alone cannot do routing and go out to the internet.. The routing  happens on any L3 device.. please make sure to which device this Ap is conencted  to and check if we are able t ogo out to internet from that device..

Lemme know if this answered your question!!

hi,

AP is connected to a core switch which in turn connected to public switch providing internet connection.

core switch is configured in such a way that when i connect a lwapp, it takes configs automaticaly from wlc.

but i have converted lwapp to autonomous mode. and wan to connect it to core switch.

So.. its like this..

AP ----------- CORE Switch -------------- Public Switch ------------ Internet.

Then, whats the configuration on the AP and on which VLAN u want the clients to go out to internet??

Cool.. please lemme know how many SSID you want on the AP?? Is it Single SSID or Multiple??

If its Multiple then please go through the doc that i have written..

https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-14496

If you just need a single SSID, then no need to creat sub interfaces and all..

lemme know if this answered your question!!
