Physical #
- Network: its one port goes to switch
gi1/0/4, a trunk with native VLAN 99 and VLANs 10, 30, 31, 40 and 45 tagged. - Power: PoE from the injector supplied with the AP, since the switch has no PoE. A stalled boot has been cleared by power-cycling the injector.
- Console: there is none. Recovery is a wired laptop on
gi1/0/2and the reset button, which needs a proper tool rather than a paperclip; see Wireless AP console recovery.
