set ap local-switching mode

Enables local switching for a specified AP.

Syntax

set ap ap-number local-switching mode {enable | disable}

Defaults

Local switching is disabled by default.

Access

Enabled.

History

Introduced in WSS Version 6.0.

Usage

Local switching allows traffic for specified VLANs to be switched by the AP itself, instead

of being tunneled back to an WSS switch. The VLANs for which local switching is performed are

specified in a VLAN profile.

Local switching can be enabled on APs that are connected to the WSS switch via an intermediate

Layer 2 or Layer 3 network. Local switching is not supported for APs that are directly connected to

an WSS switch.

If local switching is enabled on an AP, but no VLAN profile is configured, then a default VLAN

profile is used. The default VLAN profile includes a single VLAN named default that is not tagged.

Examples

The following command enables local switching for AP 7:

WSS# set ap 7 local-switching mode enable

success: change accepted.
