Current Startup Configuration File
Right click on this link to save the config.txt
file to your local hard disk. You can then edit the file and configure
the access point as you wish. Use the Load New Startup Configuration
File feature to upload the new file to any access point you want
configured the same.
Load New Startup Configuration
File
Browse to the location where you stored the config.txt
file you saved using the Current Startup Configuration File feature.
Click Load to upload the new file

Technical Support Information
Right click on this link to save the tech-support
information to your local hard disk. You can then email this information
to your technical support staff to assist them in configuring your
access point.
Reset to Factory Defaults
Returns all access point settings to their factory
defaults. The IP address is set to DHCP. Clicking Reset to Defaults
causes the access point to restart. The default password for the
access point is Cisco.
Reset to Factory Defaults (Except IP Address)
Returns all access point settings to their defaults,
except for a fixed IP address that remains the same if it is configured.
Clicking Reset to Defaults (Except IP) causes the access
point to restart. The default password for the access point is Cisco.
Restart Now
Click Restart to reboot the system without
having to find the access point and unplug it. A restart cold boot
should be needed only after recovering from network problems caused
by power outages or lightning storms.
This section is available on those access points
that support Cisco Intelligent Power Management. Some access points
support a Low Power Mode that prevents an overload condition on
older Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE).
Identify your power source and switch condition
and then make sure that your devices are configured as indicated
in the table.

1. Please check the release notes
for your power sourcing equipment to determine which Cisco IOS
version supports Cisco Intelligent Power Management. For some
PSEs, support for Cisco Intelligent Power Management may not
be available yet.
2. MAC address is the 12-character hexadecimal address of the
switch port to which the access point is attached. The MAC address
format is HHHH.HHHH.HHHH. |
Power State
Displays the power mode of the access point. A
Warning condition indicates that the PSE is unable to provide sufficient
power, or that the power injector has not been configured properly.
See System Power Settings for instructions on how to correct this.
Displays the power source as detected by the access
point.
Select either Power Negotiation
or Pre-standard Compatibility.
Use the power negotiation setting to allow a device to negotiate
inline power with a PSE that supports Cisco Intelligent Power Management
or when using a Cisco Aironet Power Injector. Use the pre-standard
compatibility setting if the access point is powered from a 15W
PSE that does not support this feature. It is recommended that the
PSE software be upgraded to a version that support Cisco Intelligent
Power Management.
When a power injector is connected in front of
a Cisco PSE that does not support Cisco Intelligent Power Management,
the Power Injector Installed check
box must be chosen. Also, enter the MAC address of the port that
is connected to the power injector.
Deselect the check box when a power injector is
used with a PSE that supports Cisco Intelligent Power Management
or when a power injector is not being used.
Blink the Access Point
LEDs
Clicking Enable causes the LEDs on the access
point to blink so that you can locate a specific device.
