Network Interface Configuration
Overview

his section describes how to configure the AP radio and Ethernet interfaces. The Network Interfaces Summary page contains information about the status of FastEthernet and Radio-802.11b or possibly Radio-802.11a interfaces . From the NETWORK INTERFACES section, the following pages can be accessed.

  • IP Address
  • FastEthernet
  • Radio0-801.11B
  • Radio1-802.11A (if installed)

With VxWorks, use the AP Radio pages in the management system setup page to set the radio configuration. The radio pages links are described in Figure . Use the Ethernet pages that are linked to the management system Setup page, to set the Ethernet port configuration. The Ethernet page links are shown in Figure and described in Figure .

Use the interface dot11radio global configuration command to place the access point into the radio configuration mode.

interface dot11radio interface-number

The interface-number specifies the radio interface number. On a 1200 AP, the 2.4-GHz radio is radio 0, and the 5-GHz radio is radio 1. The example below shows how to place the access point into the radio configuration mode , :

AP(config)#interface dot11radio 0
AP(config-if)#

The example below shows how to place the access point into the FastEthernet configuration mode:

AP(config)#interface fastEthernet 0
AP(config-if)#

The following commands can be used to check the interface status , :

AP#show interfaces
AP#show ip interface brief
AP#show running-config
AP#show config
