CLI Configuration Example

This example shows the CLI commands that are equivalent to the steps listed in the
Points to use the WDS Device" section on page
AP# configure terminal
AP(config)# wlccp ap username APWestWing password 7 wes7win8
AP(config)# end
In this example, the access point is enabled to interact with the WDS device, and it authenticates to your
authentication server using APWestWing as its username and wes7win8 as its password. You must
configure the same username and password pair when you set up the access point as a client on your
authentication server.
For complete descriptions of the commands used in this example, consult the Cisco IOS Command
Reference for Cisco Aironet Access Points and Bridges.
