Precision Time Protocol Access point overview
The Cisco 819 ISR supports built-in enterprise class WLAN capability with an embedded Cisco 3500 Access Point featuring 802.11a/b/g/n and 2X3 MIMO antenna diversity (2 transmitting antennas and 3 receiving antennas). With the dual 802.11 radio capability, the integrated AP can serve both as an access point and as a client to another wireless network for backbone/internet connectivity. This provides another source for WAN diversity along with Gigabit Ethernet, serial, and 3G/4G capabilities.
The Cisco 819 ISR router wireless access-point is a service module connected to the router with the following interfaces :
- wlan-ap0 for access point management
- Wlan-GigabitEthernet0 for production traffic between the router and the AP. This interface can be configured as a trunk to allow the AP to link multiple SSID to different vlans

IOS version of the embedded access-point
The AP802 embedded wireless access points has it's own IOS independant from the IOS of the router (flash:/ap802-k9w7-mx.124-25d.JAX1 in Packet Tracer). This AP802 IOS can be downloaded from a TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol), unbundled onto AP flash (flash:1:), using the archive tar /xtract command.server onto the router's main flash partition, and used to configure AP to boot new IOS image.

Access Point connection
The Cisco 819 embedded access point is not configured through the router's running-config. After setting up an IP address to the wlan-ap0 router interface, connect to the integrated AP802 wireless access point using the following command in privileged mode :
Router# service-module wlan-ap0 session
Detailled configuration :
Router(config)# interface wlan-ap0 Router(config-if)# ip address 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.0 Router(config-if)# no shut Router(config-if)# exit Router# service-module wlan-ap0 session Trying 10.10.10.1, 2002 ... Open ap>
Guest SSID configuration
The following configuration steps are required to configure a working guest SSID
- Define the SSID name (dot11 ssid SSID_NAME)
- Configure the SSID in guest mode (guest-mode)
- Configure the SSID authentication method (auhentication open / open eap / network-eap )
- Link the configured ssid to a Dot11Radio interface
