Chapter 19 Configuring Repeater and Standby Access Points and Workgroup Bridge Mode
 Configuring Workgroup Bridge Mode
The following example shows how the command is used. In the example, channels 1, 6, and 11 are 
specified to scan:
ap#
ap#confure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
ap(config)#int d0
ap(config-if)#ssid limited_scan
ap(config-if)#station-role workgroup-bridge 
ap(config-if)#mobile station 
ap(config-if)#mobile station scan 1 6 11
ap(config-if)#end
ap#
Use the no mobile station scan command to restore scanning to all the channels. 
Ignoring the CCX Neighbor List
In addition, the workgroup bridge updates its known channel list using CCX reports such as the AP 
Adjacent report or Enhanced Neighbor List report. However, when a workgroup bridge is configured for 
limited channel scanning, it does not need to process the CCX reports to update its known channel list. 
Use the mobile station ignore neighbor-list command to disable processing of CCX neighbor list 
reports. This command is effective only if the workgroup bridge is configured for limited scanning 
channel scanning. The following example shows how this command is used 
ap#
ap#confure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
ap(config)#int d0
ap(config-if)#mobile station ignore neighbor-list 
ap(config-if)#end
Configuring a Client VLAN
If the devices connected to the workgroup bridge’s Ethernet port should all be assigned to a particular 
VLAN, you can configure a VLAN for the connected devices. Enter this command on the workgroup 
bridge:
ap(config)# workgroup-bridge client-vlan vlan-id
All the devices connected to the workgroup bridge’s Ethernet port are assigned to that VLAN.
Configuring Workgroup Bridge Mode
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure an access point as a workgroup 
bridge:
Command Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
interface dot11radio {0 | 1} Enter interface configuration mode for the radio interface.
