Aironet Power Injector -Air-Pwrinj-Blr2=

seanvinson34
Level 1
Level 1

                  I am working with a Aironet Power Injector (Air-Pwrinj-Blr2=) trying to connect it to the access point it comes with to a desktop running Windows XP. I am able to connected to it and use cli commands via hyper terminal, but I am not able to get a network signal to the desktop. I was able to find the IP address or what I assume is the ip address, but can't ping it from inside the office and I am not able to use the ip address to get a connection to the power injector via browser. Has anybody worked with one of these units before this is a first for me and I am hoping somebody can steer me in the right direction and get this working. The Ethernet, Status and Radio are all blinking green lights on the access point and the Install is not used on this model so no light there. Thanks in advance for any help provided!

I suspect you should have a c1300-k9w7-tar

Using this path: ap#archive download-sw /overwrite /force-reload tftp://IPAddress

of_the_tftp_server/name_of_the_IOS_image_you_downloaded

Here's what I'm running across:

ap#$overwrite /force-reload tftp://10.0.0.2/c1310-rcvk9w8-tar.123-11.JX1

examining image...

%Error opening tftp://10.0.0.2/c1310-rcvk9w8-tar.123-11.JX1 (Socket error)

Thanks again for all your help with this!

Hi Sean,

First make sure your BVI1 interface has 10.0.0.1 IP. If not you can easily set it like below. Then set your PC ip as default gateway.

ap(config)#int bvi1   

ap(config-if)#ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0

ap(config)#ip default-gateway 10.0.0.2

Once you do this & set your PC to 10.0.0.2 with mask 255.255.255.0 & gateway 10.0.0.1   you should be able to ping AP IP. Once rechability is confirmed you can run a TFTP server on your PC & then upload the new image to 1310.

ap#archive download-sw /overwrite /force-reload tftp://10.0.0.2/c1310-k9w7-tar.123-8.JEA3.tar

Also if possible upgrade to this code c1310-k9w7-tar.124-25d.JA2.tar

**** Pls rate all useful responses ****

Thanks Rasika!

I am now able to get to the 1310!

Here is the code I am on now

c1310-k9w7-mx.124-25d.JA

should I update from this version or am I o.k.

What would be my next steps I should take to get the 1310 to talk to the access point.

Thanks again for your help!

Sean

Hi Sean,

That's great, you achieved a big success . Your current code should be fine as it is 12.4-25d-JA

Regarding your next query, if you want to create a SSID to connect wireless clients in the simplest way, then you can copy & paste below config (with the modified SSID name & password) & connect this AP to a switchport where DHCP enabled, users will be able to get IP on that DHCP subnet.

dot11 ssid TEST

   authentication open

   authentication key-management wpa version 2

   guest-mode

   wpa-psk ascii Cisco123

!

interface Dot11Radio0

encryption mode ciphers aes-ccm

ssid TEST

no shutdown

!

interface BVI1

ip address dhcp

If your requirement is little different pls let me know.

By the way thanks for rating the resposne as well.

**** Pls rate all useful response ***

Hi Sean,

Reading further your original query , I think you requirement is different & my proposed solution may not work for you to fulfill that.

Pls clarify if this is what you want ? (wired desktop connect through 1310 to your wireless network)

Desktop -> 1310 (ethernet) -> 1310 (Radio) -> Wireless AP -> Rest of your wired Network

Then I can help you accordingly

**** Pls rate all useful resposnes ****

Hi Rasika,

I am trying to connect a desktop through the 1310 to the wireless network.

What is trying to be accomplished is having a connection for one computer

enabling it network access. The system is in a small room across from the main facility.

Thanks again for your help,

Sean

Hi Sean,

Thanks for the clarification. One more question, your main facility wireless network is managed via a WLC or you have autonomous AP for that.

If you are using Autonomous AP with PSK then you can configure the 1310 with same pre-shared key (below example is valid if you are using WPA2/AES & PSK as Cisco123). If you use any other security than this you have to configure your 1310 accordingly. Then depend on the your main facility wireless network configuration your desktop should get a DHCP IP from that range.

hostname 1310-WGB

If your set up is different or you may need further assistance I am happy to remotely looking into this if you can give me remote access  via Teamviewer or something else.

Non-root bridge mode—not associated to the root bridge.
If all bridges are powered up, this could be caused by incorrect SSID and   security settings or improper antenna alignment. You should check the SSID   and security settings of all bridges and verify antenna alignment.

If   the problem continues, contact technical support for assistance.

Here's what the led's are giving me........not sure how to associate this with a root or remote bridge

blinking green status light means that the device is not linked to a mate.

A root bridge turns on in TX mode, shouting for one (or more) non-roots to answer.

A non-root bridge turns on in RX mode, listening for its matching root before anouncing its presents.

I usually setup the pair on the bench so I don't have antenna and power issues.

the c1310-rcvk9w8-tar is the lightweight CAPWAP version of the code. 

you need that k9w7-tar to load.

Yes I sometimes trouble getting the syntax of the tftp statement right.

I did some poking around and found a few other things that raised questions for me:

Muy assumption is that the lack of starting-config can be resolved once the tar update completes,

Just wondering if I can enable the LED flash or fi that is a concern or not and then the power injector

port..just not sure if this status is what I want or not.

I'll keep trying with the K9w7-tar in getting it to load...what does the socket error mean?

Thanks again!

config.text does not exist until the first time the running config is saved to start.

I confess I have never looked at the power-injector data.  I have been luck, my toys seem to work.

I have 4 pr 1231's in bridge mode

2 pr 1310's

6 pr 1410's

236 ap's

20 oeap's.

what does the your tftp server log record when the 1310 reaches out to retreive the file?

I found another injector, although still not able to connect but it has a more current tar file, here is the configs I pulled from it. It would be nice if this gave us an idea of what is missing. I still need to get up on the roof to check the indicator lights on the access point.

Where is the 1310 that went with the power injector?

As was mentioned before, the power injector has no intelligence or ability to talk.  It just converts UTP ethernet to Thin-net ethernet protocol and adds 48 volts.

The serial number presented in both captures was FTX1220U0G1.. same radio, same IOS.
