A radio interface is a virtual interface that can be programmed into an AOS platform running the
ADTRAN Wireless Control Protocol (AWCP). This interface is used to configure radio-level commands
for an 802.11 wireless access point (AP). The AP is either a physical standalone unit (such as the
NetVanta 150) or integrated within the AOS platform via a module, also known as an embedded access
point module (EAPM).
The associated AP interface must be configured before access to the Radio Interface Configuration mode is
possible. For more information on configuring the AP, refer to
Upon creation, each radio will have one default virtual access point (VAP) configured. More detailed
information on configuring the VAP interface is provided in
There are only two radio types: 802.11a and 802.11bg. Radio 802.11bg defaults to interface dot11ap
<ap/1> and radio 802.11a defaults to interface dot11ap <ap/2>. The only changes that can be made to
the radio types is to specify the radio mode of the 802.11bg radio as type b, g, or bg using the command
radio-mode on page 2827.
The parent (AP) interface must be created before access to the Radio Interface
Configuration mode is possible. Execute the interface dot11ap <ap> command to create
an AP interface.
To activate Radio Interface Configuration mode for an 802.11b or g radio, enter the commands at the
Global Configuration mode prompt as shown below:
>enable
#configure terminal
(config)#interface dot11ap 1/1
(config-dot11ap 1/1-bg)#
To activate Radio Interface Configuration mode for an 802.11a radio, enter the commands at the Global
Configuration mode prompt as shown below:
>enable
#configure terminal
(config)#interface dot11ap 1/2
(config-dot11ap 1/2-a)#
By default, interface dot11ap <ap/1> is radio type 802.11bg and interface dot11ap
<ap/2> is radio type 802.11a.
