Trouble configuring Aironet 1142 - %CAPWAP-3-ERRORLOG: Not sending discovery request AP does not have an IP !!

cfbeavers

Level 1

I will start off by saying, my network skills are very remediate... but I'm having an issue.  I am wanting to configure 2 of my existing AP's for a new host name and IP.  I am wanting to do this via Serial (which I have) and using PuTTY.  When I initially connected, I went into enable, and tried typing in config t and it says invalid input.  I went in and reset to factory.  Now, I can go into enable but this message keeps popping up and it's very frustrating. Message is: %CAPWAP-3-ERRORLOG: Not sending discovery request AP does not have an IP !!

 

Now, these are my commands available:

Exec commands:
  cd               Change current directory
  clear            Reset functions
  clock            Manage the system clock
  crypto           Encryption related commands.
  debug            Debugging functions (see also 'undebug')
  delete           Delete a file
  dir              List files on a filesystem
  disable          Turn off privileged commands
  enable           Turn on privileged commands
  exit             Exit from the EXEC
  fsck             Fsck a filesystem
  help             Description of the interactive help system
  led              LED functions
  lock             Lock the terminal
  login            Log in as a particular user
  logout           Exit from the EXEC
  lwapp            lwapp exec commands
  mkdir            Create new directory
  monitor          Monitoring different system events
  more             Display the contents of a file
  name-connection  Name an existing network connection
  no               Disable debugging functions
  ping             Send echo messages
  pwd              Display current working directory
  release          Release a resource
  reload           Halt and perform a cold restart
  rename           Rename a file
  renew            Renew a resource
  rmdir            Remove existing directory
  send             Send a message to other tty lines
  set              Set system parameter (not config)
  show             Show running system information
  systat           Display information about terminal lines
  terminal         Set terminal line parameters
  test             Test subsystems, memory, and interfaces
  traceroute       Trace route to destination
  undebug          Disable debugging functions (see also 'debug')
  upgrade          Upgrade software
  verify           Verify a file
  where            List active connections
 

Not sure what the next step is, and how to get rid of that message.  I do not want to connect to my WLC just yet, I just want to program via Serial since this will be on a different subnet IP than what is here, locally.

Hi,

This is a CAPWAP AP and it can only be managed when you have Wirless LAN controller.

If you want to change hostmname and IP via serial interface then do these:

1. Run this command "debug capwap console cli"

2. Then start using config t and run your normal command to change both.
