Hello,
I have followed the directions in the "Site Survey with Standalone AP Cookbook" v3.4 to provision an AP-124 as an RAP in bridge mode, always up.
The AP seems to be coming up ok on it's own, broadcasts its SSID... however, in order to associate to the AP (either in Airmagnet or just using WZC... even tried other devices) it either has to be connected to the controller, or had to once be connected to the controller.
In other words - I can boot the AP up with no controller - radio lights come on - and I can see the SSID in the air, but can't associate. If I physically connect it to the controller, I can then associate. I can then even un-associate, disconnect the AP from the controller, and then re-associate no problem. But after booting up, I cannot associate with the AP unless it has at least once been physically connected to the controller.
Controller is a 3200 running 6.1.2.8. I realize this software is much newer than when this document was written... perhaps I should just downgrade and give it a go?
