WDS, Fast Secure Roaming, and Radio Management
Requirements for WDS and Fast Secure Roaming
The wireless LAN on which your WMIC resides must meet these requirements:
•
•
•
•
•
Configuring the WMIC to use the WDS Access Point
Your WMIC must be configured as an access point before you can configure it to use WDS. Configure
the WMIC to authenticate through the WDS access point and participate in CCKM.
AP# configure terminal
AP(config)# wlccp ap username APWestWing password 7 wes7win8
AP(config)# end
In this example, the WMIC is enabled to interact with the WDS access point, and it authenticates to your
authentication server using APWestWing as its username and wes7win8 as its password. You must
configure the same username and password pair when you set up the access point as a client on your
authentication server.
Also, to configure an access point to use a WDS access point, the access point must be configured for
an encryption cipher and authentication methods. For example:
encryption mode ciphers ckip-cmic
!
ssid kin_leap
See
Configuring the Authentication Server to Support Fast Secure Roaming
The WDS access point and all access points participating in CCKM must authenticate to your
authentication server. On your server, you must configure usernames and passwords for the access points
and a username and password for the WDS access point.
Follow these steps to configure the access points on your server:
Log into Cisco Secure ACS and click Network Configuration to browse to the Network Configuration
Step 1
page. You must use the Network Configuration page to create an entry for the WDS access point.
