You can also use existing access points for the hotspot. Access Points that are assigned to a

includes the access points.
a. Create a new access point:
(config)> add network wifi ap new_hotspot_AP1

New access points are enabled by default.

(config network wifi ap new_hotspot_AP1)> ssid my_SSID
(config network wifi ap new_hotspot_AP1)>
This will be the SSID used by clients to connect to the hotspot. If you are creating multiple
access points, each access point must have the same SSID. Up to 32 characters are
allowed.
