So the docs http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/12.4_10b_JA/configuration/guide/scg12410b-chap17-cdp.html say:

"CDP is sent on the lowest VLAN number configured on the access point. When more than on VLAN is used in a wireless network, Cisco recommends that the lowest VLAN number configured be used as the native VLAN"

This is not quite accurate ... here's the *real* story on how WNBU IOS sends CDP:

* if the LAN interface is not configured for VLANs (dot1q subinterfaces), then CDP is always sent untagged of course * if the LAN interface is configured for VLANs, then CDP is always sent in VLAN 1: o if VLAN 1 is configured as the native VLAN, then CDP is always sent in VLAN 1 (i.e. untagged) o otherwise - regardless of whether VLAN 1 is explicitly configured on the AP - CDP is sent tagged in VLAN 1

Pretty simple, really!

I'll file a doc bug on this.

Cheers,

Aaron
