Chapter 8 Controlling Mesh Access Points
Using the CLI to Configure Ethernet Bridging Parameters
Using the controller CLI, follow these steps to configure Ethernet bridging on a RAP or MAP.
To specify that your AP152x has bridge functionality, enter this command:
Step 1
config ap mode bridge Cisco_AP
To specify the role of this access point in the mesh network, enter this command:
Step 2
config ap role {rootAP | meshAP} Cisco_AP
Use the meshAP parameter if the access point has a wireless connection to the controller or use the
rootAP parameter if the access point has a wired connection to the controller.
Note
To assign the access point to a bridge group, enter this command:
Step 3
config ap bridgegroupname set groupname Cisco_AP
To enable Ethernet bridging on the access point, enter this command:
Step 4
config mesh ethernet-bridging vlan transparent disable
To specify the rate (in Mb/s) at which data is shared between access points on the backhaul interface,
Step 5
enter this command:
config ap bhrate rate Cisco_AP
The default value is 24 Mb/s for the 802.11a backhaul interface.
To save your settings, enter this command:
Step 6
save config
Using the CLI to Configure Ethernet VLAN Tagging
VLAN ID 1 is not reserved as the default VLAN.
A maximum of 16 VLANs are supported across all of a RAP's subordinate MAPs.
A VLAN ID can be any value between 1 and 4095. Do not assign any value assigned to another VLAN.

Configuration as a MAP is the default setting.
To configure a MAP access port, enter this command:
config ap ethernet 1 mode access enable AP1520-MAP 50
where AP1520-MAP is the variable Cisco_AP and 50 is the variable access_vlan ID
To configure a RAP or MAP trunk port, enter this command:
config ap ethernet 0 mode trunk enable AP1520-MAP 60
where AP1520-MAP is the variable Cisco_AP and 60 is the variable native_vlan ID
– To add a VLAN to the VLAN allowed list of the native VLAN, enter this command:
config ap ethernet 0 mode trunk add AP1522-MAP3 65
where AP1522-MAP 3 is the variable Cisco_AP and 65 is the variable vlan ID
