About Configuring Authentication

78-16345-01
The device that supplies WDS can be either one of the following:
A Cisco Aironet 1100 or 1200 series access point
Each WDS access point supports one AP subnet. You can add additional
WDS access points for redundancy. The priorities you set on the WDS access
points determine which one is the primary, and which ones are backups.
A Wireless LAN Services Module (WSM)
Each WSM can support multiple AP subnets, as long as all of the subnets are
served by the switch in which the WSM is installed.
To use WDS, both the infrastructure APs and the WLSE must use LEAP to
authenticate to the WDS devices. For this purpose, you can use:
Local authentication on a WDS device. See
Devices, page
5-12.
AAA servers that you have already configured, or you can configure servers
as described in
Setting Up AAA Servers, page
In addition, server groups must be created on the WDS access points for:
Infrastructure authentication
For information on creating server groups for infrastructure APs, see
Access Points as WDS Devices, page
Client authentication
For information on creating server groups for client authentication, see the
AP documentation.
