 Join a LWAP to the Controller
 1130 and 1240 access point
(already converted to LWAP)
 Connect access point to
same layer 2 network as
WLC (192.168.2.0)
 In this lab everything is on
vlan1 (untagged)
 The access point will
automatically associate with
the WLC
 This controller supports
six access points
