Cisco Cisco's method of configuring wireless AP Wireless access point (AP), as the central communication point of users in wireless networks, can connect wired and wireless networks. You can use a Web browser and a command line interface (CLI) to complete the configuration. Generally speaking, an AP can configure two interfaces, an Ethernet interface and a wireless port.
A: Configuration mode
1: console port (need to flip the line)
2: Telnet (Remote Login)
3.Web browser (this is the simplest configuration method and can only be operated on the graphical interface (GUI))
B: configuration process
1: Graphical interface (GUI) There are generally two basic GUI interfaces according to different IOS. The GUI configuration is simple, so I won't explain it here.
2. Enter the Telnet ip address in MS-Dos through Telnet.
3: Using CLI (command line) configuration is the focus of this article. Let me explain it to you in detail.
First, connect the physical cable and turn on the HyperTerminal (in the system? Start? On the menu? Communication? Medium).
The configuration parameters of HyperTerminal are as follows:
* bits per second: 9600;
* Data bits: 8;
* Parity test: None;
* Stop bit:1;
* Flow control: Xon/Xoff or none;
Enter the command line interface as follows:
User access verification
User name: Cisco
Password:
Ap> displays version//You can view the current version information.
One: Set the system name
Ap> enables
Ap # configuration test
Ap(config)#hostname myap // Set the system name, which defaults to Ap.
Two: Assign an IP address to BVI.
When an AP connects to a wired network, it will automatically create a BVI (Bridging Virtual Interface) to connect to the network, allowing all ports to be aggregated under one IP address. [Explain that we can only configure the IP address of AP on BVI interface, but not on other interfaces]
Ap # configuration test
AP (config) # InterfaceBVi1/Enter BVI interface configuration mode.
AP (config-if) # ipaddress mask//The ip address mask assigned to you by the second address is the mask.
Three: Look at the network mapping.
AP (config) # dot11network-map30//Establish wireless network mapping.
AP # show dot 1 1 network map//displays the wireless network map.
AP # showdot11adjacent-AP//displays the list of AP adjacent to AP.
Let's show you:
Ap(config-if)#ip address10.0.0.1255.255.0
Ap(config-if)#ip address dhcp?
Client id specifies the client id to use.
Hostname specifies a value for the Hostname option.
Ap (configuration -if)#ip address dhcp
Commands for enabling and disabling interfaces: Turn off disabling without turning off enabling.
Fourth: Configure SSID.
The SSID (Service Set Identifier) is a unique identifier that allows a client to identify an access point (AP).
Ap (configuration) #int dot 1 1radio 0
Ap (configuration-if) # ssidmaap
AP (config-if-ssid) # AuthenticationOpen//Set the authentication type.
Five: monitoring AP status
AP # displays the advertising language corresponding to Dot 1 1Radio.
Six: Configure some corresponding services.
1:Telnet/SSH
Ap (Configuration) # Line vty 0 4
Ap (configuration line) # Login locally
Ap (configuration line) #end
Ap # display operation
!
Line con 0
Line vty 0 4
Local login
Line vty 5 15
log in
!
end
2: Hot backup
The standby device is located near the AP it monitors, and its configuration is the same as that of the monitored device. Standby devices need to monitor AP through Ethernet and wireless ports. If the monitored device fails to respond, the standby AP will be activated online to replace the monitored device in the network.
Ap (Configuration) #iapp Alternate mac Address
Ap (Configuration -if)# Interface dot 1 1 Radio 0
Ap (configuration -if)# ssid ssid- string
AP (config-if) # infrastructure-ssid [optional]
Ap (configuration -if)# exit
Ap (Configuration) #iapp Alternate Polling-Frequency Seconds
Ap (Configuration) # Exit
Ap # Display iapp Standby-Parameters
3. Domain name system
AP (configuration) # ipdomain-namexxxxx.xxx (website)
Disable domain name lookup
Ap (Configuration) # No ip Domain-Find
4:HTTP
The following commands can provide security for the HTTP server and change the configuration of the default help directory.
Ap (configuration) #ip http
Ap (Configuration) #ip http Authentication Local
Ap (Configuration) #ip http Port 8080
Ap (Configuration) # Access List 1 Allowed Hosts 10.0. 1. 1
Ap (Configuration) #ip http Access-Category 1
Others, such as proxy mobile IP, Qos (Quality of Service), network time protocol and WDS (Wireless Domain Service), are recommended to be configured by using the graphical interface of AP.
Pay attention to details.
1:The DC power supply cannot be connected to the AP power port and the internal power supply at the same time.
2: Green LED indicates normal activity; A yellow LED indicates an error or warning; A red LED indicates that the AP is not working properly or needs to be upgraded.
3: Get help input? A list of available commands for each command mode can be displayed.
The commonly used edit button Return under CLI scrolls down a line of commands; The space bar scrolls down the screen command;
Ctrl-D deletes the character at the cursor; Ctrl-Y gets the latest entry from the buffer;
