Task Procedure Notes
1. Enable CDP
and verify that
access points and
bridges are
visible from the
router or switch.
Enter enable mode and use the following commands to
verify that CDP is running on the switch or router:
• IOS-based devices—show cdp run
• Hybrid OS-based Catalyst switches—show cdp
If CDP is not running, enter global configuration mode
and enter cdp run.
To verify that access points or bridges are visible in the
device’s CDP table, enter show cdp neighbors.
CDP is required for the
WLSE to discover the
device.
2. Enable SNMP
and set up
community
strings.
On IOS-based devices, enter configuration mode and
use the snmp community community_string ro
command.
On Hybrid OS-based Catalyst devices, enter enable
mode and use the set snmp community read-only
community_string command.
SNMP is required for the
WLSE to discover and
manage the device.
