When operating as an AP, the WLAN port can be configured with a Layer 3 interface within a VPRN or IES or with a router interface in the base router context.
Configuring a Layer 3 interface allows the WLAN AP to be added as a SAP in a VPRN or IES.
Configuring a router interface enables the AP to allow other nodes that are acting as WLAN stations to connect to it in order to route network traffic for other Layer 2 and Layer 3 services, using GRE-MPLS transport. A router interface configured on the WLAN AP port supports IPv4.
The WLAN AP port supports the following commands in the config>router>interface context:
address
dhcp
egress-ingress-stats
cmd
hold-time
ip-mtu
shutdown
