STEP 1
Select Single Point Setup > Access Points in the navigation pane.
Single Point Setup is disabled by default on the AP. When disabled, the Enable Single Point
Setup button is visible. If Single Point Setup is enabled, the Disable Single Point Setup button
is visible. You can edit Single Point Setup options only when Single Point Setup is disabled.
Icons on the right side of the page indicate whether Single Point Setup is enabled and, if it is,
the number of WAP devices that are currently joined in the cluster.
STEP 2
With Single Point Setup disabled, configure the following information for each individual
member of a Single Point Setup cluster.
•
Location—Enter a description of where the access point is physically located, for
example, Reception. The location field is optional.
•
Cluster Name—Enter the name of the cluster for the WAP device to join, for example
Reception_Cluster.
The cluster name is not sent to other WAP devices. You must configure the same name
on each device that is a member. The cluster name must be unique for each Single Point
Setup you configure on the network. The default is ciscosb-cluster.
•
Clustering IP Version—Specify the IP version that the WAP devices in the cluster use
to communicate with other members of the cluster. The default is IPv4.
If you choose IPv6, Single Point Setup can use the link local address, autoconfigured
IPv6 global address, and statically configured IPv6 global address. Ensure that when
using IPv6, all the WAP devices in the cluster either use link-local addresses only or use
global addresses only.
Single Point Setup works only with devices using the same type of IP addressing. It does
not work with a group of WAP devices where some have IPv4 addresses and some have
IPv6 addresses.
STEP 3
Click Enable Single Point Setup.
