A Cisco Aironet Access Point is a wireless LAN transceiver that can act as the connection point between
wireless and wired networks or as the center point of a standalone wireless network. Cisco Aironet
Bridges are wireless LAN transceivers that connect two or more remote networks into a single LAN.
The access point and bridge use a browser-based management system. The system settings are on web
pages in the system firmware. You use your Internet browser to view and adjust the system settings.
Installation Notes
You can find the latest release of access point and bridge firmware at this URL:
Cisco Aironet 350 Series Bridges and metal-case access points are suitable for use in environmental air
space in accordance with Section 300-22(c) of the National Electrical Code.
CautionThe Cisco Aironet Power Injector has a smaller operating temperature range (32 to 104
than the 350 series bridge and metal-case access point. The power injector is not intended for use in
extremely high or low temperatures or in environmental air spaces, such as above suspended ceilings.
Antenna Installation
For instructions on the proper installation and grounding of external antennas, refer to the National Fire
Protection Association’s NFPA 70, National Electrical Code, Article 810, and the Canadian Standards
Association’s Canadian Electrical Code, Section 54.
Warning
Do not locate the antenna near overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or
where it can come into contact with such circuits. When installing the antenna, take extreme care
not to come into contact with such circuits, as they may cause serious injury or death.
Power Considerations
CautionThe operational voltage range for 350 series access points and bridges is 24 to 60 VDC, and the nominal
voltage is 48 VDC. Voltage higher than 60 VDC can damage the equipment.
o
F; 0 to 40oC)
CautionCisco Aironet power injectors are designed for use with 350 series access points and 350 series bridges
only. Do not use the power injector with any other Ethernet-ready device. Using the power injector with
other Ethernet-ready devices can damage the equipment.

Limitations and Restrictions
Cisco Aironet 350 Series Bridges Incompatible with 340 Series Bridges
Cisco Aironet 340 and 350 Series Bridges can be connected to the same LAN segments, but they cannot
communicate wirelessly. Although you can disable STP on non-root 350 series bridges, 350 and 340
series bridges are not designed to interoperate. If you use both 340 and 350 series bridges on your
network, make sure the 340 series bridges have radio bridge links only to other 340 series bridges, and
that 350 series bridges have radio bridge links only to other 350 series bridges.
Removing Power During Firmware Update Can Corrupt Radio Firmware
When you update the firmware on an access point or bridge, allow the unit to finish its start-up sequence
before removing power. If you update the firmware and remove power before the unit finishes the
start-up sequence, the radio firmware might be corrupted, making the unit inoperable. If the radio
firmware is corrupted, the radio indicator (the bottom of the three indicators on top of the access point
or bridge) lights steady red, and the following error message appears when the access point or bridge
starts up:
Failed to start driver for port “awc0” (errno=0x006d0002)
If the radio firmware is corrupted, you should try to reset the unit to factory defaults using the :resetall
command in the CLI; see chapter 9 of the Cisco Aironet Access Point Software Configuration Guide for
instructions on resetting the access point. If the unit cannot be reset to defaults, you must return the unit
to Cisco for service.
You can safely remove power after a firmware update when the configuration management pages
reappear in the command-line or web-browser interfaces, or when the three status indicators on top of
the unit complete the following pattern:
1. All three indicators are steady green, meaning that the access point is beginning to update the
firmware.
2. The middle indicator is steady green and the top and bottom indicators are off, indicating that the
access point or bridge is updating the radio firmware.
When the middle indicator blinks or the top and bottom indicators blink, you can remove power.
NoteThis section applies to wireless networks set up to use LEAP. If you do not use LEAP on your wireless
network, you can skip this section.
Wireless client devices use Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) to log onto a network and generate
a dynamic, client-specific WEP key for the current logon session. If your wireless network uses WEP
without EAP, client devices use the static WEP keys entered in the Aironet Client Utilities.
If you use Network-EAP authentication on your wireless network, your client devices and access points
must use the same 802.1x protocol draft. For example, if the radio firmware on the client devices that
will associate with an access point is 4.16, the access point should be configured to use Draft 8 of the

NoteDraft standard 8 is the default setting in firmware version 11.05 and earlier, and it might remain in effect
when you upgrade the firmware to version 11.06 or later. Check the setting on the Authenticator
Configuration page in the management system to make sure the best draft standard for your network is
selected.
Use the Authenticator Configuration page in firmware version 11.06 or later to select the draft of the
802.1x protocol the access point or bridge radio should use. Follow these steps to set the draft for your
access point or bridge:
Step 1Browse to the Authenticator Configuration page in the access point management system:
a. On the Summary Status page, click Setup.
b. On the Setup page, click Security.
c. On the Security Setup page, click Authentication Server.
Step 2Use the 802.1x Protocol Version (for EAP authentication) pull-down menu to select the draft of the
802.1x protocol the access point or bridge radio should use. Menu options include:
• Draft 7—No radio firmware versions compliant with Draft 7 have LEAP capability, so you
should not need to select this setting.
• Draft 8—Select this option if LEAP-enabled client devices that associate with this access point
or bridge use radio firmware versions 4.13, 4.16, or 4.23.

Important Notes
• 802.1x-2001 (formerly Draft 10)—This is the default setting in firmware versions 11.06 and
later. Select this option if client devices that associate with this access point or bridge use
Microsoft Windows XP EAP authentication or if LEAP-enabled client devices that associate
with this access point or bridge use radio firmware version 4.25 or later.
Step 3Click Apply or OK to apply the setting. The access point or bridge reboots.
Select WEP Key 1 as Transmit Key for EAP Authentication
If you use Network-EAP as the authentication type on your wireless network, you must select key 1 as
the transmit key on the access point or bridge AP Radio Data Encryption page. The access point or bridge
uses the WEP key you enter in key slot 1 to encrypt multicast and broadcast data signals that it sends to
EAP-enabled client devices. Because the access point or bridge transmits the WEP key used for multicast
messages to the EAP-enabled client device during the EAP authentication process, that key does not
have to appear in the EAP-enabled device’s WEP key list. The access point or bridge uses a dynamic
WEP key to encrypt unicast messages to EAP-enabled clients. When you set up a non-root bridge or
repeater access point to authenticate as a LEAP client, the bridge or repeater derives a dynamic WEP
key and uses it to communicate with the root bridge or access point. Bridges and repeaters not set up for
LEAP authentication use static WEP keys when communicating with other bridges and access points.
NoteIf you do not use EAP authentication on your wireless network, you can select any WEP key as the
transmit key. If you use EAP authentication and you enable broadcast key rotation, you can enable WEP
without entering WEP keys.
Important Notes
This section lists important information about access points and bridges running firmware version
12.01T1.
Reboot of Workgroup Bridges Required When Allowing More Than 20
With firmware version 12.01T1, you can select no for the Classify Workgroup Bridges as Network
Infrastructure setting on the AP/Root Radio Advanced page to allow up to 50 workgroup bridges to
associate to the access point or bridge. After selecting no for this setting, you must reboot workgroup
bridges associated to the access point or bridge.
Cisco Discovery Protocol Re-Enabled for Individual Interfaces on Reboot
The Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) feature is enabled by default, and CDP is enabled for each of the
access point’s or bridge’s individual interfaces by default. However, if you disable CDP for one of the
individual interfaces, the access point or bridge re-enables CDP for that interface when it reboots. If you
disable CDP completely, the access point or bridge does not re-enable CDP on reboot.

Adding or Deleting Proxy Mobile IP AAPs
If you need to add or delete proxy Mobile IP authoritative access points, you must disable proxy Mobile
IP before changing the configuration. Follow these steps.
Step 1Browse to the Setup page.
Step 2In the Services section, click Proxy Mobile IP. The Proxy Mobile IP Setup page appears.
Step 3Click General. The Proxy Mobile IP General page appears.
Step 4Change the Enable Proxy Mobile IP setting to no.
Step 5Add or delete AAPs as necessary.
Step 6Change the Enable Proxy Mobile IP setting to yes.
Unexpected Results on Lost Ethernet
When backbone connectivity is lost on an access point running version 12.01T1, the device switches to
repeater mode. Switch to Repeater mode is the default setting for this condition. Therefore, if the access
point’s role in your network is not a repeater access point, make sure you connect it to your wired
network before booting it up. If you do not connect the access point to your network, it switches to the
repeater mode when it fails to detect the presence of an Ethernet connection. When this occurs, wireless
client devices are unable to connect and you cannot correct the problem using a wireless client. The only
way you can change the configuration is through a serial connection using the access point’s command
line interface.
Caveats
Caveats
This section lists open and resolved software issues in firmware version 12.01T1.
Getting Bug Information on Cisco.com
If you are a registered Cisco user, you can use the Cisco TAC Software Bug Toolkit, which consists of
three tools (Bug Navigator, Bug Watcher, and Search by Bug ID Number) that help you identify existing
bugs (or caveats) in Cisco software products.
Access the TAC Software Bug Toolkit at http://www.cisco.com/support/bugtools/.
Open Caveats
The following caveats have not been resolved for firmware version 12.01T1:
• CSCdz04708—Early 340 series access points are incompatible with VLAN tagging.
Early versions of the 340 series access point are able to set up VLANs, but clients on non-native
VLANs will be unable to transmit and receive large packets. The reason for this is because early 340
series access points were limited to a maximum packet data length of 1500 bytes.

OL-3740-01
7
Caveats
You can identify an affected access point by browsing to the Ethernet Identification page and
checking the Maximum Packet Data Length parameter. If it is 1500, the failure will occur.
Possible workaround—If you have an early 340 series access point on your network, you can
eliminate the problem by setting the Maximum Packet Data Length parameter for all other devices
to 1400 bytes.
• CSCin18914—IP release or renew not occurring with EAP-TLS+MIC+KH+BWR.
When a client associates with EAP-TLS + 40/128 bit broadcast key + MIC +Keyhash + Broadcast
WEP key rotation (10sec), and IP DHCP release and renew commands are issued, the client releases
the IP address, never receives it again, and remains EAP authenticated. A ping from the access point
to the client appears to succeed, but does not reveal an IP address. The access point association table
shows the IP address for the client as 0.0.0.0.
• CSCdy29556—Symbol IP phone continuously associates and authenticates to an access point
configured with multiple VLANs.
When a Symbol IP phone is associated to a VoIP VLAN (Symbol extensions enabled), the phone
associates to the access point and is authenticated approximately every 2 seconds. The Symbol
phone shows a “No Network” error every 1 to 2 minutes.
It also appears that Symbol phones do not work well when using a non-primary SSID. It is possible
that the phone does not perform an active probe and therefore does not detect information about the
SSID it associated with in the beacon, causing it to reassociate and re-authenticate.
There is no workaround for this caveat
.
• CSCdx81372—Access point does not accept version 11.21-generated .ini file.
If you download the full configuration .ini from an access point running 11.21, upgrade to version
12.01T1, and then attempt to download the .ini file from an FTP server, the following error message
displays:
*** No Such MIB Variable as Specified on Initialization File Line xxx! for the
following variables:
awcAaaServerAccountingEnabled.x,
awcVoIPVlanId, awcVoIPVlanEnabled,
awcPublicVlanId.
*** Bad Value for MIB Variable awcVlanEncapMode Specified on Initialization File Line
xxx (error 13)!
Workaround—When producing .ini files, dump a non-default configuration for version 11.21
instead of a full configuration.
• CSCdw89705—All Ethernet devices behind a client bridge show up as roamed.
When a non-root bridge roams from one root bridge to another, messages might appear in the logs
of the root bridges stating that Ethernet devices connected to the non-root bridge and wireless client
devices associated to the non-root bridge have roamed.
You can ignore these messages.
• CSCdz04380—Incorrect values are advertised for CWMin and CWMax on Voice VLAN.
When a voice VLAN using Cisco IP Phones is configured with default settings (CSMin=31,
CWMax=31), the values advertised by the access point in the beacons and probes are CWMin=7 and
CWMax=255.
There is no workaround for this caveat.

OL-3740-01
Caveats
• CSCdz50218—Access point does not update home or foreign agent status when advertisement flags
change.
When a local home or foreign agent is disabled on the router, the access point does not detect the
change from the the advertisement flags it receives. The access point continues to list the agent
addresses on the Statistics page.
Workaround: Disable then enable proxy Mobile IP.
• CSCdy10787—The access point aborts any configuration containing an unknown MIB variable.
When an access point receives a configuration from another access point that is running a newer
firmware version than the receiving access point, the receiving access point aborts the configuration
if it encounters a MIB variable that it does not recognize.
Workaround: Upgrade access points to the same firmware version before distributing
configurations.
• CSCdy11906—When WEP is enabled and you set all WEP keys to not set, WEP is still enabled but
the web-browser page indicates that WEP is disabled.
Workaround: To disable WEP, select no encryption from the Use of Data Encryption by Stations is
drop-down menu on the Radio Data Encryption page.
• CSCdz43069—Symbol phone not working when multicast or FTP traffic is passed.
If an FTP or multicast session is in progress during a Symbol phone session, the phone call may be
dropped and the phone may be unable to roam between subnets. If there are no FTP or multicast
sessions in progress, the Symbol phone operates normally and is able to roam between subnets.
Workaround: Limit multicast and FTP traffic if using Symbol phones in a proxy Mobile IP
environment.
• CSCdz48575—Default lost Ethernet action not appropriate.
See the “Unexpected Results on Lost Ethernet” section on page 7 for a complete description of this
caveat.
• CSCdz32333—Repeater bridge link intermittent with LEAP client on non-native VLAN.
An intermittent drop occurs in a bridge link between a root bridge and a non-root bridge acting as a
repeater or non-root device. The drop occurs when a client LEAP authenticates and associates with
the non-root bridge that is acting as a repeater or non-root device. When the client associates to an
SSID that is mapped to the non-native VLAN on the non-root bridge, it subsequently brings down
the bridge link between the root and the non-root that is LEAP authenticated as well. The condition
is intermittent and does not seem to occur if the VLAN is not enabled or if the client is associated
to the root bridge or is using open or WEP authentication to the non-root bridge.
There is no workaround for this caveat.
• CSCdy76093—Proxy Mobile IP with multiple authoritative access points continuously sends
update packets.
See the “Adding or Deleting Proxy Mobile IP AAPs” section on page 7 for details and procedures
to correct this problem.

Troubleshooting
• CSCdy27831—When you set the default Unicast Address Filter to disallowed, you must reboot the
access point for the setting to take effect.
• CSCdy73695—When a repeater access point receives packets from a root access point while the
repeater is attempting to associate, the repeater sometimes displays this error:
00:00:10 (Warning): Station <Root MAC address> Associated with Encryption, then
attempted to send an Unencrypted packet to <Repeater MAC address> (length 74)
The error occurs when WEP is not enabled on either the root or the repeater. When an association
response is received by the repeater, it no longer displays the error message and is able to
successfully pass data. However, if a significant amount of traffic, such as multicast traffic, is being
transmitted by the root access point while the repeater is attempting to associate, the repeater may
miss the association response from the root access point and never fully associate. In this case, the
root access point reports that the repeater is associated and the repeater reports that it is only
authenticated. The repeater continues to display warning messages about receiving unencrypted
packets and does not recover until it is rebooted.
• CSCdx81372—Access point does not accept version 11.56-generated .ini file
If you download the full configuration .ini from an access point running 11.56, upgrade to version
12.01T1, and then attempt to download the .ini file from an FTP server, the following error message
appears:
*** No Such MIB Variable as Specified on Initialization File Line xxx! for the
following variables:
awcAaaServerAccountingEnabled.x,
awcVoIPVlanId, awcVoIPVlanEnabled,
awcPublicVlanId.
*** Bad Value for MIB Variable awcVlanEncapMode Specified on Initialization File Line
xxx (error 13)!
Workaround—When producing .ini files, dump a non-default configuration for version 11.56
instead of a full configuration.
• CSCdz58192—Root bridges with LEAP enabled on the native VLAN must have the security setting
matching that set on the Advanced Radio Setup page. If the settings do not match, the bridge link
will go down temporarily whenever an infrastructure device authenticates.
Resolved Caveat
The following caveat is resolved in version 12.01T1:
• CSCdz66748 (CSCdz60229)—Access points are no longer vulnerable to a denial of service (DoS)
when support for the Secure Shell (SSH) server is enabled. Malformed SSH packets directed at the
access point no longer cause a reload of the device.
