    I have an AP-304

    It is not booting right. It goes into Kernal Panic and reboots.
    I have attached the console session as a text file.

    Any thoughts on what is happening?

    Is it the Firmware? How do I upgrade firmware through console?

    Thank You

    Hi Michael.

    I described an upgrade procedure for AP if the OS image is broken or missing in this thread. AP-325 Missing OS Image

    I have been busy and just comming back to this. but the AP is to be used as an IAP and I do not have a controller.

    Not sure how to send firmware directly to the AP.

    It's the same principle. Put Aruba Instant image of your choice for platform Hercules to TFTP server and use upgrade os command to transfer it to AP.

    for example your tftp server ip address is 10.0.0.10 and your image file is ArubaInstant_Hercules_8.9.0.3_83448 then you can upload the file as follows

    boot> setenv serverip 10.0.0.10
    boot> upgrade os 0 ArubaInstant_Hercules_8.9.0.3_83448
    boot> boot

    Hope this help, Gorazd

    As far as I am aware, you cannot convert AP-304 to IAP. You need an IAP-304. The IAP-304 can ve converted to a Campus AP, if desired.

    You can convert AP to IAP with controller if you have ArubaOS 8.6 or higher. This was discussed in different thread.
