Configure the Wireless Controller to use the Profile
Before the wireless controller can be further configured, the profile must be applied to the wireless
controller.
rfs4000(config)#self
rfs4000(config-device-03-14-28-57-14-28)#
rfs4000(config-device-03-14-28-57-14-28)#use profile Brocade Mobility
RFS4000_UseCase1
rfs4000(config-device-03-14-28-57-14-28)#exit
rfs4000(config)#commit write
Create a WLAN
Use the following commands to create a WLAN:
rfs4000(config)#wlan 1
rfs4000(config-wlan-1)#
Configure the SSID for the WLAN. This is the value that identifies and helps differentiate this WLAN.
rfs4000(config-wlan-1)#ssid WLAN_USECASE_01
Enable the SSID to be broadcast so wireless clients can find it and associate.
rfs4000(config-wlan-1)#broadcast-ssid
Associate VLAN 2 to the WLAN and exit.
rfs4000(config-wlan-1)#vlan 2
rfs4000(config-wlan-1)#exit
Commit the Changes
Once these changes have been made, they have to be committed before proceeding.
rfs4000(config)#commit write
Creating an AP Profile
Using the Command Line Interface to Configure the WLAN
An AP profile provides a method of applying common settings to access points of the same model.
The profile significantly reduces the time required to configure access points within a large
deployment. For more information, see:

Creating a Brocade Mobility 650 Access Point Profile
A Brocade Mobility 650 Access Point’s firmware is updated directly by its associated wireless
controller. The process is automatic, and no intervention is required. To create a profile for use with
an Brocade Mobility 650 Access Point:
rfs4000(config)#profile br650 Brocade Mobility 650 Access Point_UseCase1
rfs4000(config-profile-Brocade Mobility 650 Access Point_UseCase1)#
Assign the access point to be a member of the same VLAN defined in
page 1343. In this section, the VLAN was defined as VLAN 2. Configure the access point to be a
member of VLAN 2.
