Wireless Access

Hello

I'm back with what I hope is another simple question.  How do you get the console to work on AP-565?  I have these new out of box, no configuration.  I'm using the included USB-C console cable, and I'm connecting using putty/kitty with baud speed=115200, parity=None, data bits=8, stop bits=1, flow control=None.

When the device boots up, it seems there is some kind of a POST (startup) message in the console output.  I've attached a screen shot.  Clearly there is some interaction between my computer and the device.  But nothing else happens.  I press enter twice and no response.  The same POST message re-appears if the AP is rebooted.

Everything else works find with these APs.  I can set up IAP or configure with WLC no problem.  Just the console interaction doesn't do what I expect it to do, which is allow me to see the full boot sequence and optionally interrupt it so that I can do things in a CLI, like factory reset or firmware update.  I can't access CLI at all for AP565.

I also tried setting it up completely with WLC and then from WLC making sure console access was enabled.  It doesn't help.

Is there some trick to get it to work?  I can't find the official documentation that refers to this procedure.

Try a baud rate of 9600.

That was it.  So simple.  Don't know why my computer reports the port speed at 115200 which is wrong.

Thanks!!!
