Configuring a WLAN
Four steps are required to enable a WLAN and start broadcasting:
Step1:
Create a profile to contain the SSID and per-SSID parameters
wifi wlan profile add <SSID>
ex:
wifi wlan profile add My_WLAN
Step2:
Bind the profile to a WLAN
wifi wlan config <wlan<1-25>-<1-16>> profile <SSID>
ex:
wifi wlan config wlan(1-25)-1 profile My_WLAN
Step3:
Enable the WLAN
wifi wlan enable <wlan<1-25>-<1-16>>
ex:
wifi wlan enable wlan(1-25)-1
Step4:
Enable the Radio
interface wireless enable <radio<1-25>>
ex:
interface wireless enable radio(1-25)
