Configuring Access Points to use the WDS Device
Follow these steps to configure an access point to authenticate through the WDS device and participate

Step 3
Click Enable for the Participate in SWAN Infrastructure setting.
Step 4 (Optional) Select Specified Discovery and enter the IP address of the WDS device in the entry field.
This feature--IP-based WDS--allows the access point to use a Cisco network infrastructure device
running WDS from anywhere in the network. When you enable Specified Discovery, the access point
immediately authenticates with the WDS device instead of waiting for WDS advertisements. If the WDS
device that you specify does not respond, the access point waits for WDS advertisements.
Step 5 In the Username field, enter a username for the access point. This username must match the username
that you create for the access point on your authentication server.
Step 6 In the Password field, enter a password for the access point, and enter the password again in the Confirm
Password field. This password must match the password that you create for the access point on your
authentication server.
