(WNM) manages the devices on your wireless LAN.
Enter the following command to configure the wireless device to interact with the WNM:
AP(config)# wlccp wnm ip address ip-address
Enter the following command to check the authentication status between the WDS access point and the
WNM:
AP# show wlccp wnm status
Possible statuses are not authenticated, authentication in progress, authentication fail, authenticated,
and security keys setup.
Configuring the Access Point for Local Authentication and
Authorization
You can configure AAA to operate without a server by configuring the wireless device to implement
AAA in local mode. The wireless device then handles authentication and authorization. No accounting
is available in this configuration.
You can configure the wireless device as a local authenticator for 802.1x-enabled client devices to
Note
provide a backup for your main server or to provide authentication service on a network without a
RADIUS server. See Using the Access Point as a Local Authenticator at Cisco.com for detailed
instructions on configuring the wireless device as a local authenticator:
