using the Command Line Interface (CLI) commands listed below.

Client Bridge Back Haul WLAN Configuration

:

RFS7000(config-wireless)#wlan 1 enable
RFS7000(config-wireless)#wlan 1 ssid meshWlan
RFS7000(config-wireless)#wlan 1 independent
RFS7000(config-wireless)#wlan 1 client-bridge-backhaul enable

Base Bridge Radio Configuration: (AP that is wired to the switch)

RFS7000(config-wireless)#radio add 1 “base bridge radio mac” 11bg aap51x1
RFS7000(config-wireless)#radio add 2 “base bridge radio mac” 11a aap51x1
RFS7000(config-wireless)#radio 1 base-bridge enable
RFS7000(config-wireless)#radio 1 bss 1 1
(map the mesh WLAN if manual mapping is enabled, not needed otherwise)

Client Bridge Radios Configuration: (APs that are wirelessly connected)

RFS7000(config-wireless)#radio add 3 “client bridge radio mac” 11bg
aap51x1
RFS7000(config-wireless)#radio add 4 “client bridge radio mac” 11a aap51x1
RFS7000(config-wireless)#radio 3 client-bridge enable
RFS7000(config-wireless)#radio 3 client-bridge ssid meshWlan
RFS7000(config-wireless)#radio 3 bss 1 1
(map the mesh WLAN if manual mapping is enabled, not needed otherwise)

4. Configure Adaptive AP support on the Brocade Mobility 7131N-FGR Access Point by adopting

the APs base bridge as well as client bridge. The client-bridge radios must be wired directly
wired to the switch during this configuration step.

5. Once all APs are adopted, wait for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes disconnect the client-bridge

BBrocade Mobility 7131N-FGR Access Point from the network. The client bridge APs will
continue to be adopted.
