Introduction to the Access Point
The Cisco Aironet 1200 Series Access Point delivers a cost-effective,
reliable, secure, and easily-managed wireless LAN solution for enterprise
customers and for small and medium sized businesses. The access point is
designed to incorporate new technology enhancements as they become
available.
The access point can contain one or two wireless LAN transceivers (radios).
Each transceiver serves as the center point of a stand-alone wireless network
or as the connection point between wireless and wired networks. In large
installations, wireless users within radio range of an access point can roam
throughout a facility while maintaining uninterrupted access to the network.
The access point can support simultaneous dual-band (2.4-GHz and 5-GHz)
radio operation or can be configured from the factory for single-band
operation: 2.4-GHz only or 5-GHz only. The single band radio units can be
later filed upgraded for dual band operation through the addition of a 5-GHz
radio module or a 2.4-GHz radio card.
Note This guide provides information about the dual-band configuration.
Your access point’s configuration may vary depending on the what
you ordered.

14
Powering Up the Access Point
When power is applied to the access point, it begins a routine power-up
sequence that you can monitor by observing the three LEDs on top of the
access point. All three LEDs on the top of the access point (Radio, Status, and
Infrastructure) slowly blink amber, red, and green in sequence; the sequence
takes a couple of minutes to complete.
Note See the Cisco Aironet 1200 Series Access Point Hardware
Installation Guide for a detailed description of the LED displays.
When the sequence is complete, you are ready to associate an IP address with
the access point and perform an initial configuration.
Obtaining and Assigning an IP Address
Your access point must be assigned an IP address before you can configure it
using your web browser to access its management pages. Before you can open
the management pages, you need to obtain and assign an IP address for the
access point using one of the following methods:
•Use a DHCP server (if available) to automatically assign an IP address.
12KDBQSG.bk Page 14 Friday, June 21, 2002 9:53 AM
FINAL DRAFT - CISCO CONFIDENTIAL
15
•Use the IP Setup Utility (IPSU) if your computer’s operating system is
Windows 9x, 2000, Me, NT, or XP.
Note IPSU is available for downloading in the Software Center on
Cisco.com.
•Use a terminal emulator and the access point’s console port if your
computer’s operating system is Windows CE, Linux, or Mac OS.
Determining a DHCP Assigned IP Address
If your network uses a DHCP server, the server automatically assigns an IP
address to the access point. You can obtain the IP address by one of the
following methods:
•Provide your organization’s network administrator with your access
point’s Media Access Control (MAC) address. Your network
administrator will query the DHCP server using the MAC address to
identify the IP address.
Note The MAC address is printed on the serial number label attached to
the bottom of the access point.
12KDBQSG.bk Page 15 Friday, June 21, 2002 9:53 AM
FINAL DRAFT - CISCO CONFIDENTIAL
16
•Use IPSU or a terminal emulator and the access point’s serial port to
identify the assigned address.
Using IPSU
If your computer is not connected to a DHCP server and the access point is
on the same subnet as your PC, you can use IPSU to assign an IP address to
the access point or identify an address already assigned.
Procedures for installing and using IPSU can be found in the Cisco Aironet
1200 Series Access Point Hardware Installation Guide. The guide and IPSU
are available on Cisco.com.
Using a Terminal Emulator
You can identify or assign an IP address using the access point’s console port
and a terminal emulator for all operating systems. However, if your
computer’s operating system is Windows CE, Linux, or Mac OS, you must
use the access point’s command-line console.
To access the command-line console, connect a rollover RJ-45 serial console
cable (Cisco part number AIR-CONCAB-1200) from your PC to the RS-232
console port on the access point. Then open a terminal emulator to view the
express setup screen and identify the IP address. Use these port settings for
the terminal session: 9600 baud, no parity, 1 stop bit, and Xon/Xoff flow
control.
12KDBQSG.bk Page 16 Friday, June 21, 2002 9:53 AM
FINAL DRAFT - CISCO CONFIDENTIAL
17
Note Both the Ethernet and console ports use RJ-45 connectors. Be
careful when connecting the console cable to avoid connecting to the
Ethernet port.
Procedures for using the command-line console can be found in the Cisco
Aironet 1200 Series Access Point Hardware Installation Guide. The guide is
available on Cisco.com.
Configuring the Access Point
After you have determined or assigned the access point’s IP address, you can
open the access point management pages and initially configure the access
point. Follow these steps.
1. Open your Internet browser. You must use Microsoft Internet Explorer
(version 4.0 or later) or Netscape Navigator/ Communicator (version 4.0
or later).
2. Enter the access point’s IP address in the browser address line and press
Enter. Depending on the method used to assign the IP address, either the
Summary Status (Home) screen or the Express Setup screen opens.
a. If the Express Setup screen opens, go to Step 4.
b. If the Summary Status screen opens, go to Step 3.
