Cisco switches support a DHCP server option. For additional information, refer to the “Configuring DHCP Option 43” section on page F-1. • DNS server discovery—The access point uses the name CISCO-LWAPP-CONTROLLER. to discover the controller IP addresses from a DNS server.
Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point Mounting Overview e. Step 4 On power up, verify that the access point is associated to a controller and operating normally. The Power LED should be green, the Alarm LED should be off, and the radio LEDs should be blinking. For additional information, see the “Powering Up the Access Point” section on page 2-19. After all access points are deployed and operating correctly, ensure that a controller is not configured as a master controller.
Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point Mounting Overview • Metal flush-mount bracket (user orderable) for mounting the access point to a vertical wall (see Figure 2-6) • Ceiling-mount bezel kit (user orderable) for mounting the access point above a suspended ceiling tile. For additional information, refer to the Quick Start Guide: Ceiling Mount Bezels for Cisco Aironet 1000 Series Lightweight Access Points. Factory-Supplied Mounting Options A.
Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point Mounting Overview Mounting Access Points Using a Ceiling-Mount Base When you are mounting the access point to horizontal surface, such as the ceiling of a building, use the ceiling-mount base to mount the access point. The ceiling-mount base can also be used to mount the access point to a desktop or shelf.
Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point Mounting Overview Step 7 Attach the cables to the access point. Note Step 8 When the access point is powered up and is associated with a controller (Power LED is green, Alarm LED is off, and the radio LEDs are blinking), the access point is broadcasting its beacon. Repeat the these steps for each access point on a horizontal surface. After mounting all horizontal surface access points, return to deploying the access points, "Step 3-c" on page 2-7.
Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point Mounting Overview Step 3 Snap the ceiling-mount clips onto a suspended ceiling rail (see Figure 9). Ensure you leave enough space around the access point to plug the Ethernet cable, optional external antenna cable(s), optional power supply cable, and optional Kensington MicroSaver security cable into the sides of the access point.
Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point Mounting Overview Mounting the Access Point Using a Projection Wall Mount Bracket When you are mounting the access point out from a vertical wall (flat sides along the wall or hallway), use an optional factory-orderable projection-mount L-bracket (see Figure 2-6).
