Initially configure an ISR 1100 router

Ports

Connect the GigabitEthernet port to the upstream switch.

interface GigabitEthernet0/1/0
 switchport trunk native vlan 3
 switchport mode trunk
interface Vlan35
 ip address 10.1.3.122 255.255.255.0

Configure the wireless interface, the configuration is the same as the GigabitEthernet port.

interface Wlan-GigabitEthernet0/1/4
 switchport trunk native vlan 3
 switchport mode trunk

We may also need to configure the default route.

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.1.3.1

After configuration, it is probably as follows.

ISR1100#show ip int brief
