This tells that data over that port works, but bear in mind your laptop would not use POE. I have actually dealt with a switch where the whole problem was that POE kept somehow shutting off, but otherwise worked fine.<br />
<br />
Having read your other question where you mentioned that you had to change the ports the access points were on...<br />
<br />
Did you use the same ports the old access points were on? If not, then the ports you used at first probably had POE disabled, and secondarily might have also been configured for the wrong VLAN.<br />
<br />
If they were the same ports, see below:<br />
<br />
There could be multiple factors at play. 1) What model switches are the APs connected to? Could be an issue with too much power being drawn.<br />
2) Is LLDP enabled in the switch so that the AP can properly negotiate the amount of power it may need?<br />
3) Is IPM enabled? This is the least likely to be an issue because the worst that should happen is the USB ports get disabled.
</div>


<div>
The switch is a SG300 28P PoE switch and yes, think it is related to too much power being drawn from the new APs. And they were connected to the same switch ports as we replaced them from the ceiling tiles (just swapped with new APs and it didn't immediately work) until we connect to different switch ports. &nbsp;Yes, LLDP is on as I could see the neighbor.<br />
<br />
Will check on IPM as not sure how to enable this. Do you know how to enable this?
</div>


<div>
Ok, I found it. &nbsp;It is done via CLI and the command is below:<br />
<br />
ipm <br />
&nbsp; disable<br />
&nbsp; enable
</div>


<div>
There are not he Cisco access points but the Aruba IAP 315 models.<br />
<br />
Yes, &nbsp;most likely was a power issue.
</div>


<div>
BTW - A good number of the SG300 series switches do support POE+. But it depends on exactly which model you have.

We upgraded some Cisco Access Points with newer Aruba Access Points (all PoE) and we noticed that after swapping the AP and reconnecting the ethernet cables, there would be no LED status lights at all on the system or the Radio LED indicator (AP Model 315 Aruba). &nbsp;We had to switch to different modes to get back the system and radio lights. &nbsp;Not sure why that would be the case. The switch port is still working as I tested with my laptop so why did we have to switch to different switch ports for the new Access Points to work?<br />
<br />
We even power cycled the switch (due to different reason and I tried shut/no shut (in case the switch port went to err-disabled).<br />
<br />
Does any know know why?<br />
<br />
thank you!

Wireless Access Points Upgrade

Wireless networking is anything related to the transfer of data between two (or more) devices without the use of a physical connection, ranging from getting advice on a new Bluetooth headset to configuring sophisticated enterprise level networks.

Wireless Networking

Cisco PIX is a dedicated hardware firewall appliance; the Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) is a firewall and anti-malware security appliance that provides unified threat management and protection the PIX does not. Other Cisco devices and systems include routers, switches, storage networking, wireless and the software and hardware for PIX Firewall Manager (PFM), PIX Device Manager (PDM) and Adaptive Security Device Manager (ASDM).

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.

Switches / Hubs

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

Wireless networking is a method by which homes, telecommunications networks and enterprise (business) installations avoid the costly process of introducing cables into a building, or as a connection between various equipment locations. Wireless telecommunications networks are generally implemented and administered using radio communication. This implementation takes place at the physical level (layer) of the OSI model network structure. The key hardware components of a wireless computer network include adapters, routers and access points, antennas and repeaters.
