Setting Up IOS Access Points

Configuring Infrastructure Access Points to Register with a Wireless LAN Services Module (WSM)

To configure infrastructure access points to register with a Wireless LAN Services Module, see the relevant AP and WSM documentation on Cisco.com.

Configuring Scanning APs

This section describes how to configure an AP as a scanning-only AP. After you have performed the basic network management configuration and radio management configuration described in this chapter, perform the additional configuration described in this section to make the AP into a scanning AP. Scanning APs can detect and report “bug-lighted” clients (clients associated to unauthorized access points). Scanning APs do not accept client associations.

For more information on scanning APs and other requirements for using scanning APs with a WLSE, see the online help “Radio Management” chapter in the User Guide for the CiscoWorks Wireless LAN Solution Engine, Release 2.7.

Note Radio scanning requires a read/write SNMP community string on APs. For more information, see Radio Management Setup—IOS Devices, page 5-10,

Table 5-3 on page 5-20lists the high level tasks for setting up scanning APs.
