Hi, I had the same problem. I used to configure universal mode just fine, but I realized that later I was accidentally working on 12.4 code. It deffinately depents on software version for the 1242s. I am using software version: c1240-k9w7-mx.123-8.JEA3 how and it doesn´t work any more to make the command: (config-if)station-role workgrou-bridge universal <mac>
I googled and found this document: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/12.4_3g_JA/configuration/guide/s43rf.html#wp1179361 it is a configuration guide for 12.4(3g)JA & 12.3(8)JEB and it mentiones this command. So according to this. I am suspecting that the universal command for the bridge comes in 12.3.(8)JEB but I am using 12.3(8)JEA3 a slightly older version. Is this the case for you to Iwan ? I tried to download 12.3(8)JEB but it was listed as defered on the Cisco dowload page and therefore not downloadable. Does anyone have it somewhere, just for lab testing ? regads.

Can someone please explain why this is? I think it has something to do with IOS versions ? But can not figure out starting from what IOS version this command will be available? I currently run version "c1240-k9w7-mx.123-8.JEA3/c1240-k9w" And this is my config output: ========================================================== WGB#conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
