show ap migrate
Information similar to the following appears:
These 1 APs are eligible for migration:
00:14:1c:ed:27:fe AIR-AP1242AG-J-K9ap1240
No APs have already been migrated.
Step 2 Enter these commands to disable the 802.11a and 802.11b/g networks:
config 802.11a disable network
config 802.11b disable network

You can migrate only Cisco Aironet 1130, 1200, and 1240 lightweight access points that support the
-J regulatory domain and Airespace AS1200 access points. Other access points cannot be migrated.
Your controller and all access points must be running software release 4.1 or greater or software
release 3.2.193.0.
Note Software release 4.0 is not supported. If you migrate your access points using software
release 3.2.193.0, you cannot upgrade to software release 4.0. You can upgrade only to
software release 4.1 or later or to a later release of the 3.2 software.
You must have had one or more Japan country codes (JP, J2, or J3) configured on your controller at
the time you last booted your controller.
You must have at least one access point with a -J regulatory domain joined to your controller.
You cannot migrate your access points from the -U regulatory domain back to the -J domain. The
Japanese government has made reverse migration illegal.
You cannot undo an access point migration. Once an access point has been migrated, you
Note
cannot return to software release 4.0. Migrated access points will have non-functioning
802.11a radios under software release 4.0.
