Important Notes
Transmit Power Set to Maximum When You Install 802.11g Radio
When you replace the 802.11b radio in a 1200 series access point with an 802.11g radio, the 802.11g
radio is set to the maximum transmit power allowed in your regulatory domain regardless of the power
setting configured on the 802.11b radio. After you install the 802.11g radio and the access point reboots,
configure the 802.11g radio to the preferred transmit power.

configure the 802.11g radio to the preferred transmit power.
Use Auto for Ethernet Duplex and Speed Settings
Cisco recommends that you use auto, the default setting, for both the speed and duplex settings on the
access point Ethernet port. When your access point receives inline power from a switch, any change in
the speed or duplex settings that resets the Ethernet link reboots the access point. If the switch port to
which the access point is connected is not set to auto, you can change the access point port to half or
full to correct a duplex mismatch and the Ethernet link is not reset. However, if you change from half or
full back to auto, the link is reset and, if your access point receives inline power from a switch, the access
point reboots.

Note
The speed and duplex settings on the access point Ethernet port must match the Ethernet settings
on the port to which the access point is connected. If you change the settings on the port to which
the access point is connected, change the settings on the access point Ethernet port to match.

Use force-reload Option with archive download-sw Command
When you upgrade access point or bridge system software by entering the archive download-sw
command on the CLI, you must use the force-reload option. If the access point or bridge does not reload
the Flash after the upgrade, the pages in the web-browser interface might not reflect the upgrade. This
example shows how to upgrade system software successfully using the archive download-sw command:

Radio MAC Address Appears in ACU
When a Cisco Aironet client device associates to an access point running IOS software, the access point
MAC address that appears on the Status page in the Aironet Client Utility (ACU) is the MAC address
for the access point radio. The MAC address for the access point Ethernet port is printed on the label on
the back of the access point.

Radio MAC Address Appears in Access Point Event Log
When a client device roams from an access point (such as access point alpha) to another access point
(access point bravo), a message appears in the event log on access point alpha stating that the client
roamed to access point bravo. The MAC address that appears in the event message is the MAC address
for the radio in access point bravo. The MAC address for the access point Ethernet port is printed on the
label on the back of the access point.
