THE SPECIFICATIONS AND INFORMATION REGARDING THE PRODUCTS IN THIS MANUAL ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. ALL
STATEMENTS, INFORMATION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS IN THIS MANUAL ARE BELIEVED TO BE ACCURATE BUT ARE PRESENTED WITHOUT
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. USERS MUST TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR APPLICATION OF ANY PRODUCTS.
THE SOFTWARE LICENSE AND LIMITED WARRANTY FOR THE ACCOMPANYING PRODUCT ARE SET FORTH IN THE INFORMATION PACKET THAT
SHIPPED WITH THE PRODUCT AND ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE SOFTWARE LICENSE
OR LIMITED WARRANTY, CONTACT YOUR CISCO REPRESENTATIVE FOR A COPY.
The following information is for FCC compliance of Class A devices: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant
to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial
environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required
to correct the interference at their own expense.
The following information is for FCC compliance of Class B devices: The equipment described in this manual generates and may radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not
installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may cause interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in part 15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable
protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s written authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class A or Class B digital
devices. In that event, your right to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any interference to radio or television
communications at your own expense.
You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its
peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:
• Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.
• Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.
• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.
• Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits
controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)
Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

Technical Assistance Center
The Cisco TAC is available to all customers who need technical assistance with a Cisco product,
technology, or solution. Two types of support are available: the Cisco TAC website and the Cisco TAC
Escalation Center. The type of support that you choose depends on the priority of the problem and the
conditions stated in service contracts, when applicable.
We categorize Cisco TAC inquiries according to urgency:
Priority level 4 (P4)—You need information or assistance concerning Cisco product capabilities,
product installation, or basic product configuration. There is little or no impact to your business
operations.
Priority level 3 (P3)—Operational performance of the network is impaired, but most business
operations remain functional. You and Cisco are willing to commit resources during normal business
hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.
Priority level 2 (P2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects
of your business operations are negatively impacted by inadequate performance of Cisco products.
You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.
Priority level 1 (P1)—An existing network is “down,” or there is a critical impact to your business
operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the
situation.

professionals. With a management system based on Cisco IOS software, the 1130 series access point is
a Wi-Fi certified, wireless LAN transceiver.
The access point contains two integrated radios: a 2.4-GHz radio (IEEE 802.11g) and a 5-GHz radio
(IEEE 802.11a). You can configure the radios separately, using different settings on each radio.
The access point serves as the connection point between wireless and wired networks or as the center
point of a stand-alone wireless network. In large installations, wireless users within radio range of an
access point can roam throughout a facility while maintaining seamless, uninterrupted access to the
network.
You can configure and monitor the access point using the command-line interface (CLI), the
browser-based management system, or Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

Chapter 1 Overview
Hardware Features
Ethernet Port
The auto-sensing Ethernet port accepts an RJ-45 connector, linking the access point to your 10BASE-T
or 100BASE-T Ethernet LAN. The access point can receive power through the Ethernet cable from a
power injector, switch, or power patch panel. The Ethernet MAC address is printed on the label on the
back of the access point. The port is located in a cable bay area that is hidden by the top cover (see
Figure 1-1).
Console Port
The serial console port provides access to the access point’s command-line interface (CLI) using a
terminal emulator program. The port is located in a cable bay area that is hidden by the top cover (see
Figure 1-1). Use an RJ-45 to DB-9 serial cable to connect your computer’s COM port to the access
point’s serial console port. (Refer to Appendix E, “Console Cable Pinouts,” for a description of the
console port pinouts.) Assign the following port settings to a terminal emulator to open the management
system pages: 9600 baud, 8 data bits, No parity, 1 stop bit and no flow control.
Note Your console cable connector must not include over-molding or a cable boot because of space limitations
within the cable bay area of the access point.
LEDs
The report Ethernet has three LEDs to indicate Ethernet activity, association status, radio activity, and
other status indications (refer to the “Checking the Access Point LEDs” section on page 6-2 for
additional information).
The Status LED provides general operating status and error indications.
The Ethernet LED is located in the cable bay area under the access point top cover. This LED signals
Ethernet traffic on the wired Ethernet LAN and provides Ethernet error indications.
The Radio LED signals that wireless packets are being transmitted or received over the radio
interface and provides radio error indications.
Figure 1-1 shows the locations of the three LEDs.

Chapter 1 Overview
Hardware Features
Power Sources
The access point can receive power from an external power module (supplied)or from inline power using
the Ethernet cable. The access point supports the IEEE 802.3af inline power standard and the Cisco CDP
Power Negotiation protocol. Using inline power, you do not need to run a power cord to the access point
because power is supplied over the Ethernet cable.
Warning
This product must be connected to a power-over-ethernet (PoE) IEEE 802.3af compliant power source or an
IEC60950 compliant limited power source.
The access point supports the following power sources:
Power module (supplied)
Inline power:
Cisco Aironet Power Injector (AIR-PWRINJ3 or AIR-PWRINJ-FIB)
An inline power capable switch, such as the Cisco Catalyst 3524 PWR XL, 3560-48PS,
3570-48PS, 4500 with 802.3AF PoE module, or the 6500 with 802.3AF PoE module
Other inline power switches supporting the IEEE 802.3af inline power standard
Note Some switches and patch panels might not provide enough power to operate the access point when
configured with both 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz radios. On power-up if the access point is unable to determine
that the power source can supply sufficient power, the access point automatically deactivates both radios
to prevent an over-current condition. The access point also activates a Status LED low power error
indication and creates an error log entry (refer to the “Checking the Access Point LEDs” section on
page 6-2 and the “Low Power Condition” section on page 6-5).
Anti-Theft Features
There are three methods of securing the access point to help prevent theft:
Security cable keyhole—You can use the security cable slot to secure the access point using a
standard security cable, such as those used on laptop computers.
Security hasp adapter—When you mount the access point on a wall or ceiling using the mounting
plate and the security hasp, you can lock the access point to the plate with a padlock (see Figure 1-2).
Compatible padlocks are Master Lock models 120T and 121T or equivalent.
Note The security hasp adapter covers the cable bay area ( including the power port, Ethernet port,
console port, and the mode button) to prevent the installation or removal of the cables or the
activation of the mode button.

Network Configuration Examples
UL 2043 Certification
The access point has adequate fire resistance and low smoke-producing characteristics suitable for
operation in a building's environmental air space, such as above suspended ceilings, in accordance with
Section 300-22(c) of the NEC, and with Sections 2-128, 12-010(3) and 12-100 of the Canadian
Electrical Code, Part 1, C22.1.
Caution Only the fiber-optic power injector (AIR-PWRINJ-FIB) has been tested to UL 2043 for operation in a
building’s environmental air space, the AIR-PWRINJ3 power injector and the power module are not tested
to UL 2043 and should not be placed in a building’s environmental air space, such as above suspended
ceilings.
Network Configuration Examples
This section describes the access point’s role in three common wireless network configurations. The
access point’s default configuration is as a root unit connected to a wired LAN or as the central unit in
an all-wireless network. The repeater role requires a specific configuration.
Root Unit on a Wired LAN
An access point connected directly to a wired LAN provides a connection point for wireless users. If
more than one access point is connected to the LAN, users can roam from one area of a facility to another
without losing their connection to the network. As users move out of range of one access point, they
automatically connect to the network (associate) through another access point. The roaming process is
seamless and transparent to the user. Figure 1-4 shows access points acting as root units on a wired LAN.

Repeater Unit that Extends Wireless Range
An access point can be configured as a stand-alone repeater to extend the range of your infrastructure or
to overcome an obstacle that blocks radio communication. The repeater forwards traffic between
wireless users and the wired LAN by sending packets to either another repeater or to an access point
connected to the wired LAN. The data is sent through the route that provides the best performance for
the client. Figure 1-5 shows an access point acting as a repeater. Consult the Cisco IOS Software
Configuration Guide for Cisco Aironet Access Points for instructions on setting up an access point as a
repeater.
Note Non-Cisco client devices might have difficulty communicating with repeater access points.

Chapter 3 Configuring the Access Point for the First Time
Protecting Your Wireless LAN
Protecting Your Wireless LAN
After you assign basic settings to your access point, you must configure security settings to prevent
unauthorized access to your network. Because it is a radio device, the access point can communicate
beyond the physical boundaries of your building. Configure some combination of these security features
to protect your network from intruders:
Unique SSIDs that are not broadcast in the access point beacon (see Cisco IOS Software
Configuration Guide for Cisco Aironet Access Points)
WEP and additional WEP features, such as TKIP and broadcast key rotation (see Cisco IOS Software
Configuration Guide for Cisco Aironet Access Points)
Dynamic WEP and client authentication (see Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide for Cisco
Aironet Access Points)
Using the IP Setup Utility
IPSU enables you to find the access point’s IP address when it has been assigned by a DHCP server. The
access point must have an IP address before IPSU can be used. This section explains how to install the
utility and how to use it to find the access point’s IP address.
Note IPSU can be used only on the following operating systems: Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, ME, or XP.
Note IPSU can not be used to set the access point IP address or SSID.
Tip Another simple way to find the access point’s IP address is to look on the Status screen in the Aironet
Client Utility on a client device associated to the access point.
Obtaining and Installing IPSU
IPSU is available on the Cisco web site. Follow these steps to obtain and install IPSU:
Step 1 Use your Internet browser to access the Cisco Software Center at the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/public/sw-center/sw-wireless.shtml
Step 2 Click Option 2: Aironet Wireless Software Display Tables.
Step 3 Locate the access point firmware and utilities section and click Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series (Cisco
IOS Software).
Step 4 Click IPSUvxxxxxx.exe. The vxxxxxx identifies the software package version number.
Step 5 On the Encryption Authorization Form, enter the requested information, read the encryption
information, and check the boxes that apply.
Step 6 Click Submit.

Using IPSU to Find the Access Point’s IP Address
If your access point receives an IP address from a DHCP server, you can use IPSU to find its IP address.
Because IPSU sends a reverse-ARP request based on the access point MAC address, you must run IPSU
from a computer on the same subnet as the access point and the access point must have an IP address.
Follow these steps to find the access point’s IP address:
Step 1 Double-click the IPSU icon on your computer desktop to start the utility. The IPSU screen appears (see
Figure 3-4).
Figure 3-4 IPSU Get IP Address Screen
Step 2 When the utility window opens, make sure the Get IP addr radio button in the Function box is selected.

Chapter 5 Using the Command-Line Interface
Cisco IOS Command Modes
Cisco IOS Command Modes
The Cisco IOS user interface is divided into many different modes. The commands available to you
depend on which mode you are currently in. Enter a question mark (?) at the system prompt to obtain a
list of commands available for each command mode. Refer to the Cisco IOS Command Reference for
Cisco Aironet Access Points and Bridges for a list of the supported Cisco IOS commands.
When you start a session on the access point, you begin in user mode, often called user EXEC mode.
Only a limited subset of the commands are available in user EXEC mode. For example, most of the user
EXEC commands are one-time commands, such as show commands, which show the current
configuration status, and clear commands, which clear counters or interfaces. The user EXEC
commands are not saved when the access point reboots.
To have access to all commands, you must enter privileged EXEC mode. Normally, you must enter a
password to enter privileged EXEC mode. From this mode, you must enter privileged EXEC mode
before you can enter the global configuration mode.
Using the configuration modes (global, interface, and line), you can make changes to the running
configuration. If you save the configuration, these commands are stored and used when the access point
reboots. To access the various configuration modes, you must start at global configuration mode. From
global configuration mode, you can enter interface configuration mode and line configuration mode.
Table 5-1 describes the main command modes, how to access each one, the prompt you see in that mode, and
how to exit the mode. The examples in the table use the host name ap.

Getting Help
Getting Help
You can enter a question mark (?) at the system prompt to display a list of commands available for each
command mode. You can also obtain a list of associated keywords and arguments for any command, as
shown in Table 5-2.
Abbreviating Commands
You have to enter only enough characters for the access point to recognize the command as unique. This
example shows how to enter the show configuration privileged EXEC command:
ap# show conf
Using no and default Forms of Commands
Most configuration commands also have a no form. In general, use the no form to disable a feature or
function or reverse the action of a command. For example, the no shutdown interface configuration
command reverses the shutdown of an interface. Use the command without the keyword no to re-enable
a disabled feature or to enable a feature that is disabled by default.

Chapter 5 Using the Command-Line Interface
Understanding CLI Messages
Configuration commands can also have a default form. The default form of a command returns the
command setting to its default. Most commands are disabled by default, so the default form is the same
as the no form. However, some commands are enabled by default and have variables set to certain default
values. In these cases, the default command enables the command and sets variables to their default
values.
Understanding CLI Messages
Table 5-3 lists some error messages that you might encounter while using the CLI to configure your
access point.
Using Command History
The IOS provides a history or record of commands that you have entered. This feature is particularly
useful for recalling long or complex commands or entries, including access lists. You can customize the
command history feature to suit your needs as described in these sections:
Changing the Command History Buffer Size, page 5-4
Recalling Commands, page 5-5
Disabling the Command History Feature, page 5-5
Changing the Command History Buffer Size
By default, the access point records ten command lines in its history buffer. Beginning in privileged
EXEC mode, enter this command to change the number of command lines that the access point records
during the current terminal session:
ap# terminal history [size number-of-lines]

Using Editing Features
Editing Command Lines that Wrap
You can use a wraparound feature for commands that extend beyond a single line on the screen. When
the cursor reaches the right margin, the command line shifts ten spaces to the left. You cannot see the
first ten characters of the line, but you can scroll back and check the syntax at the beginning of the
command.
To scroll back to the beginning of the command entry, press Ctrl-B or the left arrow key repeatedly. You
can also press Ctrl-A to immediately move to the beginning of the line.
Note The arrow keys function only on ANSI-compatible terminals such as VT100s.
In this example, the access-list global configuration command entry extends beyond one line. When the
cursor first reaches the end of the line, the line is shifted ten spaces to the left and redisplayed. The dollar
sign ($) shows that the line has been scrolled to the left. Each time the cursor reaches the end of the line,
the line is again shifted ten spaces to the left.

Searching and Filtering Output of show and more Commands
After you complete the entry, press Ctrl-A to check the complete syntax before pressing the Return key
to execute the command. The dollar sign ($) appears at the end of the line to show that the line has been
scrolled to the right:
ap(config)# access-list 101 permit tcp 131.108.2.5 255.255.255.0 131.108.1$
The software assumes you have a terminal screen that is 80 columns wide. If you have a width other than
that, use the terminal width privileged EXEC command to set the width of your terminal.
Use line wrapping with the command history feature to recall and modify previous complex command
entries. For information about recalling previous command entries, see the “Editing Commands Through
Keystrokes” section on page 5-6.
Searching and Filtering Output of show and more Commands
You can search and filter the output for show and more commands. This is useful when you need to sort
through large amounts of output or if you want to exclude output that you do not need to see.
To use this functionality, enter a show or more command followed by the pipe character (|), one of the
keywords begin, include, or exclude, and an expression that you want to search for or filter out:
command | {begin | include | exclude} regular-expression
Expressions are case sensitive. For example, if you enter | exclude output, the lines that contain output
are not displayed, but the lines that contain Output are displayed.
This example shows how to include in the output display only lines where the expression protocol
appears:
ap# show interfaces | include protocol
Vlan1 is up, line protocol is up
Vlan10 is up, line protocol is down
GigabitEthernet0/1 is up, line protocol is down
GigabitEthernet0/2 is up, line protocol is up
Accessing the CLI
You can open the access point’s CLI using Telnet or Secure Shell (SSH).

Accessing the CLI
Note In Windows 2000, the Telnet window does not contain drop-down menus. To start the Telnet
session in Windows 2000, type open followed by the access point’s IP address.
Step 3 In the Host Name field, type the access point’s IP address and click Connect.
Step 4 At the username and password prompts, enter your administrator username and password. The default
username is Cisco, and the default password is Cisco. The default enable password is also Cisco.
Usernames and passwords are case-sensitive.
Opening the CLI with Secure Shell
Secure Shell Protocol is a protocol that provides a secure, remote connection to networking devices set
up to use it. Secure Shell (SSH) is a software package that provides secure login sessions by encrypting
the entire session. SSH features strong cryptographic authentication, strong encryption, and integrity
protection. For detailed information on SSH, visit the homepage of SSH Communications Security, Ltd.
at this URL: http://www.ssh.com/
SSH provides more security for remote connections than Telnet by providing strong encryption when a
device is authenticated. See the Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide for Cisco Aironet Access Points
for detailed instructions on setting up the access point for SSH access.

Mismatched basic settings are the most common causes of lost connectivity with wireless clients. If the
access point does not communicate with client devices, check the following areas.
SSID
Wireless clients attempting to associate with the access point must use the same SSID as the access point.
If a client device’s SSID does not match the SSID of an access point in radio range, the client device will
not associate. The access point default SSID is tsunami.

Check (MIC), WEP key hashing, and 802.1X protocol versions.
If a wireless client is unable to authenticate with your access point, contact the system administrator for
proper security settings in the client adapter and for the client adapter driver and firmware versions that
are compatible with the access point settings.
Note The access point MAC address that appears on the Status page in the Aironet Client Utility (ACU) is the
MAC address for the access point radio. The MAC address for the access point Ethernet port is printed
on the label on the back of the access point.
Low Power Condition
The access point can be powered from the 48 VDC power module or from an in-line power source. The
access point supports the IEEE 802.3af power standard and the Cisco CDP Power Negotiation protocol for
in-line power sources. The access point requires more power (13 watts) than some legacy in-line power
sources can supply. On power-up if the access point is unable to determine that the power source can
supply sufficient power , the access point automatically enters low power mode and deactivates both
radios to prevent an over-current condition. The access point also activates a Status LED low power error
indication and creates an error log entry (see the “Checking the Access Point LEDs” section on page 6-2
a nd “Inline Power Status Messages” section on page 6-6).
Warning
This product must be connected to an IEC60950 compliant limited power source or a power-over-ethernet
(PoE) IEEE 802.3af compliant power source.
On power up, the access point boots up in low power mode, Cisco IOS software loads and runs, CDP
power negotiation determines if sufficient power is available. If there is sufficient power then the radios
are turned on, otherwise the radios remain disabled.
When the access point is in low power mode, the Cisco IOS show interfaces dot11radio 0 command
produces the following results:
Dot11Radio0 is up, line protocol is down.

Low Power Condition
CDP Inline Power Negotiation
The access point uses CDP (Cisco Discovery Protocol) to negotiate with the in-line power source for
sufficient power. The results of these negotiations will either be a decision to enter full power mode or
to remain in low power mode. Independent of the CDP negotiations, the access point hardware uses the
802.3af classification scheme to report maximum power is required by the access point.
Currently, Cisco switches (802.3af capable) do not support CDP in-line power negotiation. The access
point automatically enters normal power mode if a Cisco Catalyst 3550, 3560, or 3570 switch is detected
in the received CDP ID field.
When the access point determins that sufficient power is not available for normal power mode an error
message is logged and the Status LED turns orange to indicate the low power mode ((see the “Checking
the Access Point LEDs” section on page 6-2 and the “Inline Power Status Messages” section on
page 6-6) .
Inline Power Status Messages
These messages are logged by the access point to report the power condition:
%CDP_PD-4-POWER_OK: Full power - AC_ADAPTOR inline power source—This message
indicates the access point is using the power module and can support full power.
%CDP_PD-4-POWER_OK: Full power - NO_CDP_NON_CISCO inline power source—This
message indicates the access point is operating at full power but is connected to a non-Cisco in-line
power source. To prevent possible over-current conditions, this must be an
IEEE 802.3af compliant
power source or an IEC60950 compliant limited power source.
%CDP_PD-4-POWER_OK: Full power - HIGH_POWER_CLASSIC inline power source—This
message indicates the access point is operating at full power and has detected a Cisco switch capable
of supplying sufficient power.
%CDP_PD-4-POWER_OK: Full power - MIDSPAN inline power source—This message indicates
the access point is operating at full power and the Cisco IOS power in-line negotiation command has
been used to indicate a power injector is being used to supply power.
%CDP_PD-4-POWER_OK: Full power - NEGOTIATED inline power source—This message
indicates the access point is operating at full power and power is being supplied by a Cisco switch
capable of power negotiation.
%CDP_PD-2-POWER_LOW: All radios disabled - LOW_POWER_CLASSIC inline power source
platform=AIR-AP1120B-A-K9 MAC address=xxxx.xxxx.xxxx—This message indicates the
access point is in low power mode with all radios disabled and the power source is not capable of
in-line power negotiations. The xxxx.xxxx.xxxx indicates the MAC address of the power source.
%CDP_PD-2-POWER_LOW: All radios disabled - NEGOTIATED inline power source
platform=AIR-AP1120B-A-K9 MAC address=xxxx.xxxx.xxxx—This message indicates the

Low Power Condition
Inline Power Exception
CDP in-line power negotiation is dependent on similar code being resident in the Cisco switch that is
providing power. However, not every switch supports this CDP power negotiation code. As a work
around for such pre-standard switches the following Cisco IOS CLI command is required:
(config)# [no] power inline negotiation {prestandard source | injector H.H.H}
You can use this Cisco IOS CLI command to inform the access point that the power source is an 802.3af
compliant Cisco switch or that a power injector is being used to supply sufficient power. Refer to
Table 6-2 for information on when to use this special Cisco IOS command.
Caution If the access point receives power through Power-over-Ethernet (PoE), the output current of the power
sourcing equipment (PSE) cannot exceed 400 mA or 1500 V per port, whichever is smaller. The power
source must comply with IEEE802.3af or IEC60950 for limited power sources.
Issuing the Cisco IOS Command
Follow these steps to issue the Cisco IOS command for your power scenario:
Step 1 Connect a PC to the access point console port and use a terminal emulator to establish a session with the
access point (refer to the “Connecting to the Access Point Locally” section on page 3-3).
Step 2 From the Privileged EXEC mode (refer to the “Cisco IOS Command Modes” section on page 5-2), enter
one of these commands that applies to your power configuration (see Table 6-2):
power inline negotiation injector xxxx.xxxx.xxxx
(where xxxx.xxxx.xxxx is the MAC address of the switch port to which the access point is
connected.
power inline negotiation prestandard source
Step 3 Enter the write memory command to save the setting to the access point memory.
Step 4 Enter the quit command to exit the terminal session.
Table 6-2 Special Cisco IOS Command
Power Source Cisco IOS Command
AC power module None required
Power injector1
1. Power injector must be AIR-PWRINJ3 or AIR-PWRINJ-FIB.
For Cisco non-802.3af compliant switches and Cisco switches
without inline power, use this Cisco IOS command:
power inline negotiation injector xxxx.xxxx.xxxx
(where xxxx.xxxx.xxxx is the MAC address of the switch port
to which the access point is connected.
Cisco 802.3af compliant switch2
2. If command 2 is not issued when powered only by a Cisco non-802.3af compliant switch, the access point powers up with both radio interfaces
down.
Use this Cisco IOS command:

roaming A feature of some Access Points that allows users to move through a facility
while maintaining an unbroken connection to the LAN.
RP-TNC A connector type unique to Cisco Aironet radios and antennas. Part 15.203 of
the FCC rules covering spread spectrum devices limits the types of antennas that
may be used with transmission equipment. In compliance with this rule, Cisco
Aironet, like all other wireless LAN providers, equips its radios and antennas
with a unique connector to prevent attachment of non-approved antennas to
radios.
S
spread spectrum A radio transmission technology that spreads the user information over a much
wider bandwidth than otherwise required in order to gain benefits such as
improved interference tolerance and unlicensed operation.
SSID Service Set Identifier (also referred to as Radio Network Name). A unique
identifier used to identify a radio network and which stations must use to be able
to communicate with each other or to an access point. The SSID can be any
alphanumeric entry up to a maximum of 32 characters.
T
transmit power The power level of radio transmission.
U
UNII Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure—regulations for UNII devices
operating in the 5.15 to 5.35 GHz and 5.725 to 5.825 GHz frequency bands.
