Using the Autonomous to Lightweight Mode Upgrade Tool
You can use the Autonomous to Lightweight Mode Upgrade tool to upgrade the IOS image so that an AP is converted from autonomous to lightweight mode. The tool only works with Cisco Aironet 1100, 1130, 1200, 1240, and 1310 models; all other models require a manual upgrade using the archive command.
First, download the upgrade tool from Cisco.com. Be aware that the upgrade tool is known by several different names. You might also see it called the Cisco Aironet AP to LWAPP Upgrade tool. To find the software, navigate to Support > Download > Wireless Software > Access Points, and then select a specific AP model. Once the upgrade tool is downloaded, install it on a Windows PC.
