Assign an IP Address by Using
CLI
When you connect the wireless device to the wired LAN, the wireless device links
to the network by 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 by using 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:
1. Enter the global configuration mode to configure the terminal.
configure terminal
2. Enter interface configuration mode for the BVI.
interface bvil
3. Assign an IP address and address mask to the BVI.
ip address address mask

TIP
If you are connected to the wireless device by using a Telnet session,
you lose your connection to the wireless device when you assign a new
IP address to the BVI. If you need to continue configuring the wireless
device by using Telnet, use the new IP address to open another Telnet
session to the wireless device.
