We are using the Autonomous mode…

Cisco IOS Software, C1040 Software (C1140-K9W7-M), Version 15.2(4)JA1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2)

ap#sh controllers do1 radio-reset

Cisco Aironet 3700 Series – AP Radio Reset Codes is the only link I can find with reference infomation regarding radio codes….

Best Answer

Here is what I have gleaned from the Cisco support pages.

Status 71: Reset to update radio status on WLC. Also usually done upon AP joining the WLC after boot up.

^{Cisco Support Community - %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface Dot11Radio0, changed state to down}

Cisco – Setup Cisco AP 1602 to broadcast 2.4 & 5Ghz on the same SSID

This is how you would set up dual-band 2.4Ghz / 5Ghz on a Cisco autonomous AP for Open auth... Basically just associate the SSID with Dot11Radio0 and Dot11Radio1; Substitute these WPA PSK configs if you want WPA PSK.

I can add PEAP or other EAP methods after I get home, but I haven't got access to my EAP notes right now.

Cisco – Fixing ‘Unable to Create Temp Dir’ Error on Cisco AP

Many Cisco devices include the fsck command to check the file system with. If you run this command on the flash, it will attempt to fix file system errors for you. These were my results:

ap#fsck flash:
Fsck operation may take a while. Continue? [confirm]
flashfs[3]: WARNING - Unable to allocate backup blocks.
Please free some space on the flash file system.
flashfs[3]: 202 files, 7 directories
flashfs[3]: 0 orphaned files, 0 orphaned directories
flashfs[3]: Total bytes: 31610880
flashfs[3]: Bytes used: 31610880
flashfs[3]: Bytes available: 0
flashfs[3]: flashfs fsck took 19 seconds.
Fsck of flash: complete

Well, this appears to have proved that the file system is full. But did it fix the issue with the flash system so I could look at the flash system to find files to delete? Yes:

You can see why the file system is full, someone copied a firmware tarball direct to the AP's flash instead of using the archive command to pull it remotely. Easy fix though, just delete the tarball:

ap#del flash:ap3g1-k9w7-tar.152-2.JB.tar
Delete filename [ap3g1-k9w7-tar.152-2.JB.tar]? 
Delete flash:/ap3g1-k9w7-tar.152-2.JB.tar? [confirm]

Ok, file system fixed. Free space created. Did all of this fix the original issue of updating the firmware? Yes:
