air-sap2602i-n-k9 <=> air-cap2602i-n-k9

[Chi Fai Leung]

I want to order two autonomous.

What is the different between "air-sap2602i-n-k9" and "air-cap2602i-n-k9"?

[Sahil Mengi]

AIR-SAP2602i-N-K9 is the PID for you, in case you want antonomous. SAP = Standalone/Ios

AIR-CAP2602i-N-K9 is the part id for unified access point intended to be used in CUWN/CA.

Best,

SAP means Standalone.

CAP means Controller .

But it doesn't matter if you ordered the wrong one because it is very easy to convert the AP from SAP to CAP and vice versa.

Hi Leo,

I want to use AP SAP-2600 in standalone mode now but I'll buy a controller in next year. Can I convert SAP-2600 to controller-based mode ? Does it have any problem or unstable ?

Thank you very much,

Can I convert SAP-2600 to controller-based mode ?

Converting from autonomous IOS to controllerb-based IOS is very easy.  

All you need is to un-pack the RCV file (TAR file extension) into the AP and reboot the AP.  The AP will now boot up with controller-based IOS.

I saw the software of the "AIR-SAP2620I-N-K9" included "S2G1K9W7-15202JA", "S2G1K9W7-15202JB". Can tell me what different is? Thanks!

Get either "ap3g2-k9w7-tar.152-4.JA1.tar" or "ap3g2-k9w7-tar.152-2.JB2.tar".

Hello,

As per your query i can suggest you the following solution-

SAP stands for standalone and CAP stands for controller.

Hope this will help you.

Hi Abhishek,

I want to use aironet 2700 in autonomous mode. But I can't choose standalone model for it (with 2600 series, we have SAP-2602)

Can you help me about it ?

Thank you very much,

I always thought CAP was capwap because LAP was lwapp

Actually, it is.  I just set a "trap" to see if someone's going to do a cut-n-paste.  Looks like the trap caught one.

Is it possible to change the PID?

I have two AP, both running on autonomous IOS image 15.2(2)JB2.

AIR-SAP2602I-E-K9

AIR-CAP3602I-E-K9

Now when i want to add both to Prime Infrastructure 1.4, only the SAP is discovered correctly. The CAP is mistakenly discovered as unified AP. I think its because auf the PID.

Can anyone confirm?

Does anyone know how to resolve this?

Cheers,
Felix
