In the Fingerprint box, type the 16-digit hexadecimal number of the AP's encryption fingerprint. Use
either of the following formats:
•
11:22:33:44:55:66:77:88:99:aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff:00
•
1122:3344:5566:7788:99aa:bbcc:ddee:ff00
An AP's fingerprint is the hash value of the AP's public encryption key. The fingerprint is displayed on a
label on the back of the AP, and is labeled RSA key. If the AP is already installed and operating, use the
CLI command show dap status command to display the fingerprint.
Note. The fingerprint is used for secure communication between the WSS and
the AP, and applies only to Distributed APs.

Configuring a Directly Connected AP
APs contain radios that provide networking between your wired network and IEEE 802.11 wireless users. An AP can
connect to the wired network through a direct 10/100 Ethernet connection to an WSS or indirectly through other Layer 2
or Layer 3 wired networking devices. Configure an AP port for each directly connected AP.
