    When you type "show ap database", what is the flag next to that AP?

    Type "show log system 50" and see if you can see why.

     

    What is the regulatory domain of the controller?

     

    Type "show profile errors" to see if you have any other problems..

    Hi, 

     

    Check the output of "#show ap debug system-status ap-name <AP-NAME> | include POE". 

     

    If the AP-275 has received POE-AF power, it'll come up with "I" flag. 

    AP-275 needs POE-AT power for the radios to turn on.

    * Check POE at the AP (you can plug in to the console port of the AP to see the output and if it's not enough power it will say so, or if you see the LED stay Red after powerup, then you know it's a POE issue (you need 802.3at with LLDP support on the swtch, or you can use an 802.3at power inejector, POE+ or 30W 802.3af is not supported)

    * Check your version of code, and if need be, upgrade the DRT file if you can't upgrade AOS firmware should it be needed. Doing a 'show ap allowed-channels country-code fr ap-type 275' and should see the following. If not, you need updated firmware or an update to the DRT

    Dear,

    thank you for your help,  the probleme was in the Power Source, the AP 275 was powered with 15.4 watt, after activing LLDP in the Cisco Switch , the AP worked properly (  the negotiation of the power source alimenation).
