I have two Cisco Aironet 1815i Autonomous Access Point connected to the network already and getting IP addresses from the DHCP server. But I am not able to open the web page for the configuration.
When I try to connect to the Access Point using the console port, I keep getting below shown error:
[*04/27/2018 00:25:53.2299] CAPWAP State: Discovery
[*04/27/2018 00:25:53.2399] Discovery Request sent to 255.255.255.255, discovery type UNKNOWN(0)
I don't understand one thing when the access point is autonomous, then why it's trying to find the WLC? The firmware on the access point is 8.3.111.0 and model number is AIR-AP1815I-E-K9.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

If the AP is trying to do a discovery of a controller, then it is NOT an autonomous access point.
