Overview CH A P T E R 1 The Cisco Aironet 1300 Series Outdoor Access Point/Bridge is available in autonomous and lightweight products. The autonomous product can support standalone network configurations with all configuration settings maintained within the unit. The autonomous product can be configured for multiple operating roles such as, access point, bridge, and workgroup bridge. The lightweight product operates in conjunction with a Cisco wireless LAN controller with all configuration information maintained within the controller. The lightweight product can be only configured as an access point. Product Terminology The following terms refer to the autonomous and lightweight products: • The term access point/bridge describes both autonomous and lightweight products. • The term autonomous access point/bridge describes only the autonomous product. • The term lightweight access point describs only the lightweight product. • The term access point describes the product when configured to operate as an access point. • The term bridge describes the product when configured to operate as a bridge. Autonomous Access Point/Bridge The autonomous access point/bridge (model: AIR-BR1310G) supports a management system based on Cisco IOS software. The access point/bridge is a Wi-Fi certified, wireless LAN transceiver. The autonomous access point/bridge uses a single mini-PCI radio (IEEE 802.11b-compliant or IEEE 802.11g-compliant) that can be upgraded to future radio technologies. The autonomous access point/bridge serves as the connection point between wireless and wired networks or as the center point of a stand-alone wireless network. In large installations, wireless users within radio range of an access point can roam throughout a facility while maintaining uninterrupted access to the network. You can configure and monitor the autonomous access point/bridge using the command-line interface (CLI), the browser-based management system, or Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

Product Terminology
The following terms refer to the autonomous and lightweight products:
•
The term
access point/bridge
describes both autonomous and lightweight products.
•
The term
autonomous access point/bridge
describes only the autonomous product.
•
The term
lightweight access point
describs only the lightweight product.
•
The term

Autonomous Access Point/Bridge
The autonomous access point/bridge (model: AIR-BR1310G) supports a management system based on
Cisco IOS software. The access point/bridge is a Wi-Fi certified, wireless LAN transceiver. The
autonomous access point/bridge uses a single mini-PCI radio (IEEE 802.11b-compliant or IEEE
802.11g-compliant) that can be upgraded to future radio technologies.
The autonomous access point/bridge serves as the connection point between wireless and wired
