• config interface vlan ap-manager {vlan-id | 0}
Note Enter 0 for an untagged VLAN or a non-zero value for a tagged VLAN. Cisco recommends
using tagged VLANs for the AP-manager interface.
• config interface port ap-manager physical-ds-port-number
• config interface dhcp ap-manager ip-address-of-primary-dhcp-server
[ip-address-of-secondary-dhcp-server]
• config interface acl ap-manager access-control-list-name
Note See Chapter 5 for more information on ACLs.
Step 5 Enter save config to save your changes.
Step 6 Enter show interface detailed ap-manager to verify that your changes have been saved.
Using the CLI to Configure the Virtual Interface
