Cisco wireless access controller
I have exhausted all of my connection options at this point.
#Cisco wireless access controller serial#
When I try to use a rollover cable connected to the serial port of a computer and the console port of the AP in conjunction with PuTTY I get no console response. When I try to SSH to the AP, every login and password that I try gets rejected, including the recommended “cisco cisco” pair. When I try making a telnet connection to the AP I get a “Password required, but not set” message and get kicked out. When I tried connecting to the IP address of the AP (which I could ping with no issues) in all internet browsers I get a Server Not Found page. I confirm in the router’s configuration that the AP was given an IP address on the correct subnet as my laptop, which was also connected to the PoE switch. I connected the AP to our PoE Switch also connected to a simple Linksys router set up with a DHCP server. However, I ran into the following difficulties when trying to make a local connection to an AP and configure it without a controller:

What Cisco access points can Mobility Express manage?"Ī. To corroborate this recommendation, I turn your attention to the Mobility Express FAQ: My IT Manager, under the advice of Cisco Sales Consultants before I was brought on staff over a month ago, was recommended to purchase Cisco Aironet 2702e WAPs because they were both inexpensive and could be managed by Mobility Express, which would not require the purchase of an expensive Cisco WAP Controller. I understand I'm probably asking a stupid question, but after speaking with my colleague we thought it might be a good idea to just put this out there on Spiceworks and see what you think about it. TL DR Were we led astray by a Cisco Sales Representative? We bought APs as recommended by Cisco and it turns out that they may require a controller to configure, as opposed to what the representative said.
