Note
If WDS is configured on the subnet, CDP discovery proceeds automatically via
WLCCP for the infrastructure access points. The access points must be properly
configured. All access points will be used as seeds. The WDS must also be
configured and in the managed state. For device configuration information, see
Chapter 5, “Setting Up Devices—CiscoWorks 1105/1130/1130-19.”
Run CDP Discovery
Before discovery can proceed, you must specify at least one initiating IP address
(seed device), from which other devices can be discovered. Neighbors of the seed
device are discovered according to the CDP distance that you specify. The seed
device and discovered devices must be CDP-enabled.
Note
By default, the WLSE runs a CDP discovery every 24 hours.
Use the procedures in this section to run an immediate or scheduled discovery:
•
Run an immediate, one-time CDP discovery—See
Run CDP Discovery Now,
page 6-8
.
•
Modify the default CDP discovery schedule by scheduling a one-time job or
repeated jobs—See
Modify the CDP Discovery Schedule, page 6-10
.
