Enterasys Networks RBT-8200 manual Example 2 Deployment Site Has No Dhcp and No DNS

Wireless Switch Configuration Tasks

5.Save the configuration changes:

RBT-8200#save config

6.Power off or restart the switch.

Example 2: Deployment Site Has No DHCP and No DNS

The deployment site in this example does not have a DHCP server or a local DNS server. Therefore, IP and DNS information must be statically configured. Because no DNS server is available, an IP alias is configured to map the RASM server’s IP address to the well‐known hostname wlan‐config‐srv.

1.Configure a VLAN:

RBT-8200#set vlan 1 port 1

2.Configure an IP interface on the VLAN.

RBT-8200#set interface 1 ip 192.168.1.252 255.255.255.0

3.Configure a default route through the local gateway:

RBT-8200#set ip route default 192.168.1.1 1

4.Configure the default DNS domain name:

RBT-8200#set ip dns domain example.com

5.Configure an IP alias to map the RASM server IP address to the well‐known name wlan‐config‐srv:

RBT-8200#set ip alias wlan-config-srv 172.16.22.84

6.Enable the auto‐config option:

RBT-8200#set auto-config enable

7.Create a self‐signed administrative certificate, to enable RASM or WebView to communicate with the RoamAbout wireless switch. (See Step 4 in Example 1: Deployment Site Has DHCP and Local DNS on page 2‐5.)

8.Save the configuration changes:

RBT-8200#save config

9.Power off or restart the switch.

Example 3: Deployment Site Has DNS but No DHCP

The deployment site in this example does not have a DHCP server but does have a local DNS server. The configuration is similar to Example 1, but includes DNS configuration information instead of an IP alias.

1.Configure a VLAN:

RBT-8200#set vlan 1 port 1

2.Configure an IP interface on the VLAN.

RBT-8200#set interface 1 ip 192.168.1.252 255.255.255.0

3.Configure a default route through the local gateway:

RBT-8200#set ip route default 192.168.1.1 0

4.Configure the default DNS domain name:

RBT-8200#set ip dns domain example.com
