Network Deployment Considerations

Before defining an access point network configuration, refer to the following deployment guidelines
to ensure the configuration is optimally effective:

Protocol

Specify the protocol for which the alias has to be created. Use the drop down to select the protocol from
eigrp, gre, icmp, igmp, ip, vrrp, igp, ospf, tcp and udp. Select other if the protocol is not listed. When a
protocol is selected, its protocol number is automatically selected.

Source Port
(Low and High)

This field is only meaningful if the protocol is either tcp or udp.
Specify the source ports for this protocol entry. A range of ports can be specified. Select the Enter Range
button next to the field to enter a lower and higher port range value. Up to eight (8) such ranges can be
specified.

Destination Port
(Low and High)

This field is only meaningful if the protocol is either tcp or udp.
Specify the destination ports for this protocol entry. A range of ports can be specified. Select the Enter
Range
button next to the field to enter a lower and higher port range value. Up to eight (8) such ranges
can be specified.
