Installation and Configuration
This guide is designed to provide you with the in formation needed to instal l AP1010 Cisco Aironet 1000 Series 802.11a/b/g lightweight access points. These Access Points (AP) are part of the Cisco Wireless LAN Solution, and require no manual configuration after they are mounted.
Overview
This document assumes that a site survey has b een performed as described in the Cisco 1000 Series IEEE
802.11a/b/g Lightweight Access Point Deployment Guide , that AP locat ions an d mou nting optio ns have
been selected, and that you have one AP per indicated location. After the site survey is done, you should have a map indicating the following:
AP locations.
AP mounting options: hanging from a ceiling, in the ceiling plenum, projecting a way from the w all,
flat against the wall, or using the Ceiling-Mount Bezel Kit.
AP power options: power supplied by the AC-to-DC power supply orderable from the factory, or
PoE from a network device or a PoE injector/hub (usually located in a wiring closet).
Note Plenum-mounted APs MUST BE powered using PoE to comply with safety regulations.
If you do not hav e a map, mak e one so y ou can record the MAC addresses from each locat ion and retu rn them to the person who is planning or managing this wireless network.
Note When mounting the APs, be sure to maintain a 20 cm (8 in.) separation between the APs and bystanders
to comply with FCC RF exposure regulations. Refer to the: “FCC Statements for Cisco Aironet 1000
Series Lightweight Access Points” section for more information
For more details about AP installations, refer to the “ Planning Notes” section at the end of this document

7817146-01
Important Guidelines
Even though APs have been engineered for easy installation, there are some very important guidelines to keep in mind:
PLACE the AP NO MORE THAN 140 FEET APART. Placing them farther apart almost always
results in poor coverage.
DO NOT MOUNT APs OUTDOORS.
DO NOT MOUNT the APs ON BUILDING PERIMETER WALLS UNLESS THE OPERATOR
WANTS TO PROVIDE COVERAGE OUTSIDE THE BUILDING.
BE SURE that plenum-mounted APs are powered using Po wer o ver Ethernet ( PoE) and use only the
metal brackets (not the Ceiling-Mount Base or the Hanging-Ceiling Clips) to comply with safety regulations.
BE SURE THAT the APs ARE INSTALLED VERTICALLY.
Installing them vertically standing up in a plenum or hanging from a ceiling creates the largest coverage area per AP. Hanging the APs from the ceiling provides the best RF coverage.
DO NOT MOUNT the AP ANTENNAS WITHIN ONE METER
(3 FT.) OF ANY METAL OBSTRUCTIONS. THE RF WAVES FROM the APs ARE BLOCKED AND/OR REFLECTED BY METAL OBJECTS such as metal HVAC ducts, conduit, pipes, bookcases, elevator shafts, stairwells, and metal walls. REFER TO THE Cisco 1000 Series IEEE 802.11a/b/g Lightweight
Access Point Deployment Guide
BEFORE MOUNTING the APs
NEAR METAL OBSTRUCTIONS.
WHEN MOUNTING the APs IN THE CORNER OF A
RIGHT-ANGLE HALLWAY INTERSECTION, MOUNT THE them AT A 45-DEGREE ANGLE TO THE TWO HALLWAYS. The AP internal antennas are not omnidirectional and cover a larger area when mounted this way.
When AP is configured with an IP address and is mo ve d to a dif ferent IP segment, it attempts to join a Ci sco Wireless LAN Controller. If it is unable to join a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller after a number of attempts, it does an arp for the default configured gateway. If the AP is on the wrong subnet, it will not be able to resolve the gateway arp and it will attempt to contact a DHCP server. This is the AP IP address fallback feature. However , if the destination IP segment does not have a DHCP server, the AP retains its original IP address and can never join the network.

Configuration Steps for an AP prior to installation
Step 1 Configure the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller in LWAPP Layer 3 Mode and be sure its DS Port is
connected to the network. Use CLI, Web User Interface or Cisco WCS procedures as described in the appropriate Cisco Wireless LAN Controller Guide.
a. Be sure AP ports are available through the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller
Management/AP-Manager Interface.
b. Set the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller as the Master so that new AP always associate with it. Step 2 Take the AP out of the box and plug it into the same subnet as the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller. Step 3 Apply power to the AP:
a. Use 802.3af-compatible PoE from an orderable inline power injector. If you do not have PoE
available, use an orderable AC-to-48 VDC External Power Supply plugged into the side of the AP.
Note These APs support 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE). These access points do not support Cisco
prestandard PoE. Please use Cisco 802.3af capable PoE switches or power injectors.
b. After you power up the AP, the RED Alarm LED comes on for about 15-20 seconds and then all the
LEDs blink sequentially back and forth, indicating that the AP is trying to find a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller to associate with. This can continue for up to fi v e minutes. If the AP r emains in this mode for more than five minutes, the AP is unable to find the Master Cisco Wireless LAN Controller. Check the connection between the AP and the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller and be sure the AP and the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller are on the same subnet.
c. If the power light does not come on, check the power (it can be powered either with PoE or fro m an
orderable AP External Power Supply.
d. Be sure that a DHCP server is configured in the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller for both the
Management Interface and AP-Manager Interface using the CLI, Web User Interface, or Cisco WCS interface, and that the DHCP server is operating correctly.
e. After the AP finds the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller, it attempts to download the new Operating
System code if the AP code version differs from the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller code version. While this is happening, the LEDs on the top of the AP blink simultaneously.
Step 4 After the Operating System code download is successful, the AP reboots. The GREEN LED turns on and
the two YELLOW LEDs indicate the states of the 802.11a and 802.11b/g networks. If any part of the network is disabled in the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller, the corresponding YELLOW LED remains off.
Note that the Red LED can light for about 10-20 seconds when the AP reboots. If the RED LED
comes on AND STAYS ON for more than a minute, disconnect the Cisco Aironet 1000 Series lightweight access point and call Cisco Technic al Assistance Center (TAC).
From the CLI, Web User Interface or Cisco WCS interface, configure the AP with its Primar y,
Secondary, and Tertiary Cisco Wireless LAN Controller names.
If required, use the CLI, Web User Interface or Cisco WCS interface to customize the AP-specific
802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g network settings. Once again, the two YELLOW LEDs indicate the states of the 802.11a and 802.11b/g networks. If any part of the network is disabled, the corresponding YELLOW LED remains off.

7817146-01
Step 5 If everything works (the GREEN LED is on and the RED LED is off), disconnect the AP and take it to
its final destination and install it as described later in this document . If your AP fails this visual test, refer to “Obtaining Technical Assistance” to return your AP.
Note When you are installing a Layer 3 AP on a dif ferent subnet than the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller, BE
SURE that a DHCP server is available on the subnet where you will be installing the AP, and that the subnet has a route back to the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller. Also be sure that the route back to the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller has destination UDP ports 12222 and 12223 open for LWAPP communications. Ensure the route back to the Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Cisco Wireless LAN Controller allows IP packet fragments. Finally, be sure that if address translation is used, that the AP and the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller have a static 1-to-1 NAT to an outside address. (Port Address Translation is not supported.)
Step 6 When yo u have installed and powered up th e AP in its final dest inatio n, verify tha t the LEDs a re in the
same state they were in at the end of Step 4. If no LEDs are on, the AP is most lik ely not receiving power . If all the LEDs blink sequentially for more than five minutes, the AP is unable to find its Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Cisco Wireless LAN Controller. Check the connection between the AP and the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller, and be sure the AP and the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller are either on the same subnet or that the AP has a route back to i ts Primary, Second ary , an d T er tiary Cisco W ireles s LAN Controller. Also, if the AP is not on the same subnet as the Cisco W ireless LAN Controller, be sure there is a DHCP server on the same subnet as the AP.
Step 7 After you have prepared all APs, reconfigure the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller so it is not the Mast er.
A Master Cisco Wireless LAN Controll er sh ould only be used fo r conf ig uring APs an d not in a w orking network. Note that the Master Cisco Wireless LAN Controller is normally not used in a deployed network, so the Master Cisco Wireless LAN Controller setting is automatical ly disabled upon reb oot or OS upgrade.
After completing “Pre-Installation Configuration” for all APs, continue with “Preparing Mounting
Locations”.
Preparing Mounting Locations
On your map, you should have the AP locations, mounting options, and power options.
Note BE SURE that plenum-mounted APs use only the metal Projection-Mount and Flush-Mount brackets
(not the Ceiling-Mount Base or the Hanging-Ceiling Clips) and are powered using PoE to comply with safety regulations.
1. Find the required mounting locations and prepare them in one of these ways:
Use the ceiling-mount base to mark the wall or ceiling locations for sheet metal, drywal l, or other screws. Be sure you leav e enough space arou nd the AP and base to plug the CAT-5 cable, optional power supply cable, and o ptional K ensington MicroSa ver Security Cable into the sides of the AP.

If necessary, drill holes for the various cables where they can be mostly hidden from casual view. When you are mounting the AP using an optional separately orderable projection-mount L-bracket (the one with two long legs), the cables can be routed through the 5/8-inch (15.9 mm) holes in the bracket.
3. Route the CAT-5, optional power supply and optional Kensington MicroSaver Security cables to
where they can plug into the AP. Be sure to leave about 6 inches (15 cm) of slack in the cables for future modifications.
4. Attach the brackets to the wall or ceiling, or install screws for ceiling-mount base:
Where you are going to use the projection-mount or flush-mount bracket, use customer -supplied sheet metal, drywall, or other screws to attach the bracket to the ceiling or wall.
Where you are going to use the ceiling-mount base, install customer-supplied sheet metal, drywall, or other screws with 1/4 inch (6.35 m m) or smaller h eads prot ruding from the ceilin g about 0.1 inch (2.5 mm).
You are now ready to install the AP. Continue with “Mounting the Access Points.

Cables
This section contains the cable information.
You will run one CAT-5 Ethernet cable from the AP to a network device or a PoE injector/hub.
When a AP will be mounted below the ceiling using the ceiling mount or wall mount brackets, you
may have to drill a hole into the ceiling plenum to run the CAT-5 cable to the wiring closet. When the CAT-5 cable cannot be run through the ceiling plenum, find another path to route the cable from the AP to the wiring closet.
When the AP will be mounted above the ceiling using the ceiling mount or wall mo unt brackets, run
the CAT-5 cable to the wiring closet through the ceiling plenum. When the CAT-5 cable cannot be run through the ceiling plenum, f ind another pat h to route the cable from t he AP to the wiring closet.
When you are powering the AP from A C po wer , route the po wer suppl y cable from the A C electrical
outlet to the AP. Be sure you secure the AC power plug so it will be difficult for people to pull on the power cord or unplug the power supply from the AC power outlet.
When you are powering the AP from a PoE source (a network device, or a PoE injector/hub), you
do not need to route a separate power cable to the AP, because the AP will receive its power across the CAT-5 Ethernet cable. R eturn the power supply to the wireless network planner/manager.

External Antennas
The APs are designed to be used exclusiv ely with the internal high-gain antennas and hav e no pro visions for external antennas.
Note As described in the AP1020 and AP1030 Cisco Aironet 1000 Series 802.11a/b/g Lightweight Access Points
with External Antennas - Quick Start Guide, the AP1020 and AP1030 APs have jacks for external
antennas.
Mounting Options
This section contains the mounting information.
Note Because the AP internal antennas have been designed to reduce inter-floor interference, it is strongly
recommended that you mount the AP standing or hanging straight up or down.
Note You can mount the AP in the ceiling plenum or below the ceiling using the ceiling mount base or wall
mount brackets, but the APs perform best when mounted below the ceiling.
Caution Plenum-mounted APs MUST BE powered using PoE to comply with safety regulations.
When you are mounting the AP in the middle of a ceiling, ceiling plenum, or hallway, you will
typically use the color-coordinated ceiling-mount base to stabilize the AP after it is mounted. Us e the mounting base to mark the sheet metal, drywall, or other screw locations.
The mounting base attaches to the bottom of the AP with tw o supplied screws, an d then the assembly
slides and locks onto two sheet metal, drywall, or other screws.
When you are mounting the AP out from a wall (flat sides along the room or hallway), use the
projection-mount L-bracket supplied with the AP. Use the L-bracket to mark the sheet metal, drywall, or other screw locations.
When you are mounting the AP against a wall (flat Side A toward the inside of the building), use
the flush-mount bracket supplied with the AP. The flush-mount L-bracket is the one with one long and one short leg. Use the L-bracket to mark the sheet metal, drywall, or other screw locations.
