Click the name of a wireless device to open a new browser window displaying a Station page displaying the access point’s local information for that device. Click Go beside the device name to open a new browser window displaying that device’s home page, if available. Some devices, such as PC card clients, do not have browser-based interfaces.

Click show clients to display all the wireless client devices on your network. The client names appear under the access point or bridge with which they are associated. If clients are displayed, click hide clients to display only non-client devices.

Using Cisco Discovery Protocol

Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) is a device-discovery protocol that runs on all Cisco network equipment. Each device sends identifying messages to a multicast address, and each device monitors the messages sent by other devices. Information in CDP packets is used in network management software such as CiscoWorks2000.

Use the CDP Setup page to adjust the access point’s CDP settings. CDP is enabled by default. Figure 9-6shows the CDP Setup page.
