The discovery process using CAPWAP is identical to the Lightweight Access Point Protocol (LWAPP) used with previous Cisco Aironet access points. LWAPP-enabled access points are compatible with CAPWAP, and conversion to a CAPWAP controller is seamless. Deployments can combine CAPWAP and LWAPP software on the controllers.
ap3702pgetstart.fm Page 8 Monday, September 9, 2013 8:58 AM • DHCP server discovery—This feature uses DHCP option 43 to provide controller IP addresses to the access points. Cisco switches support a DHCP server option that is typically used for this capability. For more information about DHCP option 43, see the “Configuring DHCP Option 43 and DHCP Option 60” section on page 34. • DNS discovery—The access point can discover controllers through your domain name server (DNS).
ap3702pgetstart.fm Page 9 Monday, September 9, 2013 8:58 AM Installation Summary Installing the access point involves these operations: • Performing a pre-installation configuration (optional) • Mounting the access point • Grounding the access point • Deploying the access point on the wireless network Performing a Pre-Installation Configuration The following procedures ensure that your access point installation and initial operation go as expected.

Use the CLI, web-browser interface, or Cisco WCS procedures as described in the appropriate Cisco wireless LAN controller guide. a.
ap3702pgetstart.fm Page 11 Monday, September 9, 2013 8:58 AM f. The access point must be able to find the IP address of the controller. This can be accomplished using DHCP, DNS, or IP subnet broadcast. This guide describes the DHCP method to convey the controller IP address. For other methods, refer to the product documentation. See also the “Using DHCP Option 43” section on page 14 for more information. Step 2 Apply power to the access point: a. The access point is 802.3af (15.
ap3702pgetstart.fm Page 12 Monday, September 9, 2013 8:58 AM Step 5 If your access point does not indicate normal operation, turn it off and repeat the pre-installation configuration. Note When you are installing a Layer 3 access point on a different subnet than the Cisco wireless LAN controller, be sure that a DHCP server is reachable from the subnet on which you will be installing the access point, and that the subnet has a route back to the Cisco wireless LAN controller.
ap3702pgetstart.fm Page 13 Monday, September 9, 2013 8:58 AM c. If the LED blinks sequentially for more than 5 minutes, the access point is unable to find its primary, secondary, and tertiary Cisco wireless LAN controller.
ap3702pgetstart.fm Page 14 Monday, September 9, 2013 8:58 AM Using DHCP Option 43 You can use DHCP Option 43 to provide a list of controller IP addresses to the access points, enabling them to find and join a controller. For additional information, refer to the “Configuring DHCP Option 43 and DHCP Option 60” section on page 34. Checking the Access Point LED The location of the access point status LED is shown in Figure 4.
