6Getting 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 1 Connect 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 2 Locate 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

6Cisco WAP125 Quick Start Guide

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

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

STEP 5 Enter the default user name of cisco and password of cisco in the Username

and Password fields.

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

STEP 7 Follow 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.

7Suggested 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 1 Verify that the Cisco WAP125 is powered on and the lights indicate the

appropriate links.

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

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

Cisco WAP125 Quick Start Guide 7

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

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

WAP125’s IP address. In this example, we pinged 192.0.2.10.

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

Pinging 192.0.2.10 with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 192.0.2.10: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128

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

Pinging 192.0.2.10 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.

8Cisco WAP125 Quick Start Guide

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.

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.

8Rebooting 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.
