Hi everybody!!
I have a AIR-WLC2112-K9 (Software Version 6.0.199.4). Also, I have five AIR-LAP1242G-A-K9 controlled with WLC.
I want to add to these deployment AIR-LAP1261N-E-K9. My WLC works only with LWAPP-enabled access points. But this 1260 series AP start guide describe:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/1260/quick/guide/ap1260getstart.html (The Controller discovery process, 1st paragraph)
"The 1260 series access point uses the IETF standard Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points Protocol (CAPWAP) to communicate between the controller and other wireless access points on the network. CAPWAP is a standard, interoperable protocol which enables an access controller to manage a collection of wireless termination points. The discovery process using CAPWAP is identical to the Lightweight Access Point Protocol (LWAPP) used with previous Cisco Aironet access points. LWAPP-enabled access points are compatible with CAPWAP and conversion to a CAPWAP controller is seamless. Deployments can combine CAPWAP and LWAPP software on the controllers."
Here is logs from AIR-LAP1261N-E-K9 CLI:

Is it possible to join new AIR-LAP1261N-E-K9 to my LWAPP-enabled WLC?

AIR-LAP1261N-E-K9 not support Software Version 6.0.199.4
CAPWAP support is provided in controller software release 5.2 or later. However, your controller must be running release 7.0 or later to support 1260 series access points.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/1260/quick/guide/ap1260getstart.html
You can upgrade AIR-WLC2112-K9 to Release 7.0.240.0
Don´t worry with AIR-LAP1242G-A-K9 are still supported.

Minimum WLC firmware to support 1260 is 7.0.116.0.
If you can upgrade your WLC to 7.0.240.X then I'd recommend you go to this version.
