Establishing basic Adaptive AP connectivity
A
Adjust each AAP’s radio configuration as required. This includes WLAN-radio mappings and
radio parameters. WLAN-VLAN mappings and WLAN parameters are global and cannot be
defined on a per radio basis. WLANs can be assigned to a radio as done today for a Mobility
650 model Access Port. Optionally, configure WLANs as independent and assign to AAPs as
needed.
3. Configure each VPN tunnel with the VLANs to be extended to it.
If you do not attach the target VLAN, no data will be forwarded to the AAP, only control traffic
required to adopt and configure the AP.
NOTE
For additional information (in greater detail) on the switch configuration activities described above,
see
Switch configuration .
Establishing basic Adaptive AP connectivity
This section defines the activities required to configure basic AAP connectivity with the switch. In
establishing a basic AAP connection, both the Access Point and switch require modifications to
their respective default configurations. For more information, see:
• Adaptive AP configuration
• Switch configuration
NOTE
Refer to Adaptive AP deployment considerations for usage and deployment caveats that should be
considered before defining the AAP configuration. Refer to Sample switch configuration file for IPSec
and independent WLAN if planning to deploy an AAP configuration using IPSec VPN and an extended
WLAN.
Adaptive AP configuration
An AAP can be manually adopted by the switch, adopted using a configuration file (consisting of the
adaptive parameters) pushed to the Access Point or adopted using DHCP options. Each of these
adoption techniques is described in the sections that follow.
Adopting an Adaptive AP manually
To manually enable the Access Point’s switch discovery method and connection medium required
for adoption:
