3. 설정 및 설치
The Cisco Aironet 1852I-B-K9 is an enterprise-grade access point that requires specific configuration for proper operation. It is not a consumer-level plug-and-play device.
3.1 Initial Configuration Requirements
- Wireless LAN Controller (WLC): This access point is designed to operate in conjunction with a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller.
- Mobility Express (ME): Alternatively, it can be configured to run in Mobility Express mode, where one access point acts as a virtual controller for other APs. Note that the ME image may require a Cisco Smartnet contract to obtain and install.
- 콘솔 액세스: Initial setup and conversion to CAPWAP (Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points) or Mobility Express often requires a console cable (RJ-45) for direct command-line interface (CLI) access.
- 네트워크 연결성: Ensure the access point is connected to a network switch, preferably with Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability for power delivery.
3.2 장착 옵션
The access point can be mounted on various surfaces using optional brackets or ceiling grid clips. Refer to the included pointer card or Cisco documentation for detailed mounting instructions.

4. 사용 설명서
Once the Cisco Aironet 1852I-B-K9 Access Point is properly installed and configured with a WLC or in Mobility Express mode, it will provide wireless network access.
4.1 무선 연결
- The access point operates on dual-band frequencies (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) supporting 802.11ac Wave 2 standards.
- Client devices (laptops, smartphones, tablets) can connect to the wireless network broadcast by the access point using the configured Service Set Identifier (SSID) and security credentials.
- MU-MIMO technology allows the access point to communicate with multiple client devices simultaneously, improving overall network efficiency and performance.
4.2 네트워크 관리
Management of the access point, including monitoring, configuration changes, and firmware updates, is typically performed through the associated Wireless LAN Controller or the Mobility Express interface.

5. 유지관리
정기적인 유지보수는 액세스 포인트의 최적 성능과 수명 연장을 보장합니다.
- 펌웨어 업데이트: Periodically check for and apply firmware updates provided by Cisco. These updates often include security patches, bug fixes, and performance enhancements.
- 환경 조건: Ensure the access point operates within its specified temperature and humidity ranges. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or near heat sources.
- 물리적 청소: Gently clean the exterior of the access point with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols.
- 네트워크 모니터링: Monitor network performance and access point status through your WLC or network management system to identify and address potential issues proactively.
6. 문제 해결
This section addresses common issues that may arise during the setup or operation of the Cisco Aironet 1852I-B-K9 Access Point.
6.1 Common Setup Challenges
- Not a Standalone AP: This model is not designed for standalone operation without a Wireless LAN Controller or Mobility Express configuration. Attempts to use it as a simple standalone access point will likely fail.
- Mobility Express Image: If attempting to use Mobility Express, ensure the correct ME image is installed. Obtaining this image may require a valid Cisco Smartnet contract.
- 콘솔 구성: Many initial configurations, especially converting from a CAPWAP image to Mobility Express, require direct console access using an RJ-45 console cable and CLI commands. The CiscoAirProvision feature may not work out-of-the-box without prior ME installation.
- Switch Port Configuration: When connecting to a switch, ensure that trunk ports are configured with
nonegotiateas the access point does not support Dynamic Trunking Protocol (DTP).
6.2 일반적인 문제 해결 단계
- 전원 확인: Verify that the access point is receiving power, either via PoE or the 48VDC power input. Check indicator lights for status.
- 네트워크 연결성: Confirm that the Ethernet cable is securely connected and the network port on the switch is active and correctly configured.
- WLC Status: If using a WLC, ensure it is operational and properly configured to manage the access point.
- 펌웨어 불일치: Incompatibility between the access point firmware and the WLC firmware can cause issues. Ensure both are compatible and up-to-date.
