Hi all,
Please, how can I check the mode of my aironet 702i AP (lightweight or autonomous) because I need to join it to the vWLC and I found that only lightweight AP can be joined to WLC ?
Thank's in advance

Hi,
here is doc about autonomous ap image:
https://rscciew.wordpress.com/2014/01/04/understand-access-point-ios-images/
k9w7 – autonomous (or “site survey”) IOS
k9w8 – full lightweight IOS (this is what is bundled in the WLC .aes image, and is factory installed on “mesh” APs)
rcvk9w8 – lightweight recovery image – this is factory installed on lightweight APs, unless a “mesh” image is specified; it lacks radio firmware
and you have :
flash:/ap1g1-k9w7-mx.153-3.JAB/ap1g1-k9w7-mx.153-3.JAB"
Means its an autonomous Image.

Thank you a lot Mr . Leo and Mr. Sandeep for your help.
If it is an automous AP, can I join it to the vwlc or I have to convert it to lightweight mode?

You need to convert it to Lightweight to join a WLC.
