Configuring a Wireless LAN Connection
The Cisco 1800 series integrated services fixed-configuration routers support a secure, affordable, and
easy-to-use wireless LAN solution that combines mobility and flexibility with the enterprise-class
features required by networking professionals. With a management system based on Cisco IOS software,
the Cisco routers act as access points, and are Wi-Fi certified, IEEE 802.11a/b/g-compliant wireless
LAN transceivers.
You can configure and monitor the routers using the command-line interface (CLI), the browser-based
management system, or Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). This chapter describes how to
configure the router using the CLI. Use the
interface dot11radio global configuration CLI command to
place the device into radio configuration mode.
See the Cisco Access Router Wireless Configuration Guide for more detailed information about
configuring these Cisco routers in a wireless LAN application.
Figure 9-1 shows a wireless network deployment.
