Status of 1131ag in Autonomous Mode

[jhbrubaker]

Hello,

I have a few 1131ag APs that I'm using in Autonomous Mode.  I've configured and everything looks fine but the "mood ring" is yellow.  I've worked with these previously in lightweight mode and know they should be green.

What does the yellow status light indicate?

Thanks.

John

Hi John,

The LED status descriptions are explained here;

Got that thanks.  I was wondering if the status is different depending on the modes.  The only reference for yellow is problems with the Ethernet.  However, I am able to connect to AP via ethernet so I know it is definitly working.  I can config via console and http and the device doesn't have any other errors.  What might be wrong or where do I look?

Hi John,

Sorry about that my friend, this is the correct doc

Is it possible that you are seeing a PoE problem??

Cheers!

I guess POE could be the issue.  The AP is using POE from the switch and appears to be working fine otherwise.  I 'm trying to find anything or direction where to look for possible causes other than "Ethernet Link".  I've even seen devices associating with the AP.

I swapped cables, turned off PoE and used the power cord but still not getting the green status on the top of the AP.

Another update:  Everything appears to be functional with the AP.  It would be nice if there were color samples to go with the chart.  I've had others look and get a mixed bag of "It's yellow" and "It's green".
