Debugging
To determine if the universal client has associated to the access point, the user can issue the 'show dot11
association all' command for a detailed output of which access point it was associating to and how it has
associated to the access point.
The "show dot11 association" command will have the following output:

Caveats
When the Cisco dot11radio is in the universal client mode and associates to a 3rd party access point,
there are some additional caveats. The first is on the "show dot11 association" output. The "Device" area
shows a result of "unknown" when associated to a 3rd party access point (non-Cisco). In the example
below, a Cisco 876W universal client is associated to a Symbol 4131 Access Point. The "Software
Ver si on " a nd "N am e" f i el ds al so re su lt in "N ONE ". This is because the Cisco Aironet messages between
Cisco devices carry this information and not between 3rd party and Cisco devices.
Example:
c876#sh dot11 assoc
