6 Cisco WAP125 Quick Start Guide

Getting Started with the Configuration

To configure the Cisco WAP125, follow these steps to access the

web-based Configuration Utility and then the Setup Wizard from your

computer:

STEP 1Connect the Cisco WAP125 to the same network (IP subnet) as your

computer. The factory default IP address configuration of the Cisco

WAP125 is DHCP. Make sure that your DHCP server is running and

can be reached.

See Incorrect IP Address for troubleshooting information, or if you

do not have a DHCP server.

STEP 2Locate the IP address of the Cisco WAP125.

a. The Cisco WAP125 can be accessed and managed by Cisco

network tools and services including the Cisco FindIT Network

Discovery Utility that enables you to automatically discover all

supported Cisco devices in the same local network segment

as your computer. You can get a snapshot view of each device

or launch the product configuration utility to view and configure

the settings. For more information, see www.cisco.com/go/

findit.

b. The Cisco WAP125 is Bonjour-enabled and automatically

broadcasts its services and listens for services being

advertised by other Bonjour-enabled devices. If you have a

Bonjour-enabled browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer

with a Bonjour plug-in, or the Apple Mac Safari browser, you

can find the Cisco WAP125 on your local network without

knowing its IP address.

You can download the complete Bonjour for Microsoft Internet

Explorer browser from Apple’s website by visiting:

http://www.apple.com/bonjour/

c. Locate the IP address assigned by your DHCP server by

accessing your router or DHCP server. See your DHCP server

instructions for more information.

STEP 3Launch a web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.

STEP 4In the address bar, enter the default DHCP address and press the

Enter key.

STEP 5Enter the default user name: cisco and password: cisco in the

Username and Password fields.

STEP 6Click Log In. The Wireless Access Point Setup Wizard appears.

Cisco WAP125 Quick Start Guide 7

STEP 7Follow the Setup Wizard instructions to finish the WAP device

installation.

We strongly recommend that you use the Setup Wizard for the first

installation. For more advanced configurations, see the

Administration Guide. A link to the Administration Guide is found in

Where to Go from Here.

Congratulations, you can now start using your Cisco WAP125.

Suggested Next Steps

In case of an error while installing, try the troubleshooting procedures

described in this section.

Troubleshooting

If you cannot display the configuration utility, you can test the ability of the

computer to communicate with the Cisco WAP125 by using ping. To use

ping on a computer running Windows:

STEP 1Verify that the Cisco WAP125 is powered on and the lights indicate

the appropriate links.

STEP 2Locate the Cisco WAP125’s IP address. While there are different

ways to locate the IP address, this procedure uses Cisco FindIT.

a. If you have previously downloaded Cisco FindIT, open Internet

Explorer and launch Cisco FindIT. For more information on

downloading Cisco FindIT, see www.cisco.com/go/findit.

b. In the Cisco FindIT display, place your mouse over the Cisco

WAP125’s name. The Cisco WAP125’s IP address is displayed

along with other device information.

STEP 3Open a command window by choosing Start > Run and enter

cmd.

STEP 4At the command window prompt, enter ping and the Cisco

WAP125’s IP address. In this example, we pinged 192.168.1.245.

If successful, you should get a reply similar to the following:

Pinging 192.168.1.245 with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 192.168.1.245: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128

8 Cisco WAP125 Quick Start Guide

If it fails, you should get a reply similar to the following:

Pinging 192.168.1.245 with 32 bytes of data:

Request timed out.

Possible Cause of Installation Failure

No Power

Power up the switch and your computer if they are turned off.

Make sure that your PoE switch is powered on and the lights indicate that

you have a link. See Verifying the Hardware Installation.

Verify that the devices on your network are not plugged into a switchable

outlet.

Bad Ethernet Connection

Check the state of the indicator lights. See Verifying the Hardware

Installation.

Check the Ethernet cable to ensure that it is firmly connected to your

devices. Devices connected by the Ethernet cable can include the WAP

devices, and routers, any switches, and your computer.

Verify that the connected switch has auto-negotiation enabled. The Cisco

WAP125 and the switch need the same negotiation parameters set.

Bad Image

After a new firmware installation, if the POWER light is solid red, which

indicates that the device fails to boot with both firmware images, contact

system support; see Where to Go from Here.

Incorrect IP Address

The most likely cause of connectivity failure is an incorrect IP address. The

Web browser may be pointing to the wrong IP address, or your computer

may be configured with an IP address that is not in the same subnet as the

Cisco WAP125.

Because the factory default IP address configuration is DHCP, make sure

that your DHCP server is running and can be reached. You may need to

disconnect and reconnect the devices for them to discover their new IP

addresses from the DHCP server. You can then query the DHCP server for

the new IP address. See Step 2 of Getting Started with the

Configuration for more information on how to find the DHCP address.

Cisco WAP125 Quick Start Guide 9

If the Cisco WAP125 does not receive a DHCP response (there is no DHCP

server on your network) after 60 seconds, the Cisco WAP125 will fallback

to the following default static IP address: 192.168.1.245 and a default mask

of 255.255.255.0. To reach that IP address, be sure that your computer is

on the 192.168.1.xxx network.

Rebooting the Cisco WAP125 or Resetting

to Factory Defaults

To reboot your Cisco WAP125:

•If the Cisco WAP125 uses a power adapter, with the power on, use the

POWER button to reboot the device. The POWER button only functions

when the Cisco WAP125 uses a power adapter.

•If the power supply is PoE, unplug your Ethernet connection for three

seconds and plug it back in.

•With the power on, press the RESET button with an opened paper clip

for less than 10 seconds, or until the lights go off.

– When all the lights go off, release the RESET button.

– Release the RESET button as soon as the lights go off, or you will

restore the Cisco WAP125 to factory default settings and lose your

configurations.

To reset the Cisco WAP125 to factory default settings:

•With the power on, press and hold the RESET button with an opened

paper clip for more than 10 seconds.

– All of the lights will go off.

– Release the RESET button when the power light turns on.
