Using the Startup Wizard

Step 3 Enter the enable secret password. This password is used to protect access to privileged EXEC and configuration modes. This password, after entered, becomes encrypted.

Step 4 Enter the enable password. This password is used when you do not specify an enable secret password (for some older software versions, and some boot images).

Step 5 Enter the virtual terminal password. This password is used to protect access to the controller over a network interface.

Step 6 If you want the controller to receive its time setting from an external Network Time Protocol (NTP) server when it powers up, enter yes to configure an NTP server. Otherwise, enter no.

If you enter yes:

a.Enter the NTP server address.

b.Enter the polling interval (between 16 and 131072 secs, which is a power of 2).

If you enter no:

a.Enter yes to configure the system time.

b.Enter the current date in MM/DD/YY format and the current time in HH:MM:SS format.

Step 7 To configure the wireless network, enter yes.

Step 8 If desired, enter the name of the mobility group to which you want the controller to belong. Step 9 Enter the code for the country in which the controller will be used.

Step 10 When prompted to configure the SNMP network management, enter yes or no.

If you enter yes, enter the Community String.

If you enter no, proceed to the next step.

Step 11 Perform management network configuration. The current interface summary appears. For an example:

Interface IP-Address OK? Method Status Protocol

Vlan1 unassigned YES NVRAM administratively down down

GigabitEthernet0/0

unassigned YES unset administratively down down

Te1/0/1 unassigned

YES unset up up

Te1/0/2 unassigned

YES unset down down

Te1/0/3 unassigned

YES unset down down

Te1/0/4 unassigned

YES unset down down

Te1/0/5 unassigned

YES unset down down

Te1/0/6 unassigned

YES unset down down

a.Enter the interface name used to connect to the management network from the above summary. In this example, the interface name is GigabitEthernet0/0.

b.To configure the IP address on the interface, enter yes.

c.Enter the IP address for the interface.

d.Enter the subnet mask for the interface.

Step 12 Configure the wireless management interface.

The wireless management interface must be configured at startup. It should be mapped to an SVI that is not Vlan1.

a.Enter the VLAN number for the wireless management interface.

b.Enter the IP address for the interface.

c.Enter the IP address mask for the interface.
