create

Use the create command to create a WLAN service configuration. The create command is accessible from the wlans context of the CLI.

create WLANS-string mode (mesh|wds|std|3pap|remote) ssid ssid-string | create WLANS-string mode (std|remote) ssid ssid-string hs-type (enabled|osu)

Parameters

WLANS-name Specifies the name of the WLAN service
mode (mesh|wds|std|3pap|remote) Specifies the mode of the WLAN service
ssid ssid-string Specifies the SSID of the WLAN service
hs-type (enabled|osu) Specifies whether the WLANS is a basic hotspot or an online signup hotspot. To enable hotspot, the mode must be std or remote. The WLAN Service status for new hotspots is disabled by default. To enable the WLAN Service, you must first configure the privacy and authentication settings. Once the hotspot is configured, the hotspot type cannot be modified. If you need to modify the hotspot type, you must create a new WLANS.
