Assigning an IP Address Using the CLI
When you connect the wireless device to the wired LAN, the wireless device links to the network using
a bridge virtual interface (BVI) that it creates automatically. Instead of tracking separate IP addresses
for the wireless device Ethernet and radio ports, the network uses the BVI.
When you assign an IP address to the wireless device using the CLI, you must assign the address to the
BVI. Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to assign an IP address to the wireless
device BVI:
Using a Telnet Session to Access the CLI
Follow these steps to access the CLI by using a Telnet session. These steps are for a PC running
Microsoft Windows with a Telnet terminal application. Check your PC operating instructions for
detailed instructions for your operating system.
Step 1 Choose Start > Programs > Accessories > Telnet.

using Telnet, use the new IP address to open another
Telnet session to the wireless device.
