[c-nsp] AP 2600 series autonomous mode

[Bill Blackford]

Andrew,

Thank you. The command you provided makes it so I can actually use IOS-like
commands, like copy. The problem I'm still having however, is that the
"autopilot" process that looks for a WLC, is removing my ip before the copy
is complete. Is there also a way I can turn this loop of death off? :)
