Dears, 

I am facing an issue on Cisco 1815 series. I already configured 1 AP as master mobility express mode (IP  172.20.238.120). 

The show run config command is given below : 

(Cisco Controller) >show running-config

Notice: "show running-config" has been changed to be an alias to "show run-config".
Use "show run-config commands" to display the configuration commands.
Press Enter to continue or <Ctrl-Z> to abort...
