UPLINK

 

 

 

MAX CLIENTS

Specify the maximum number of clients that can be configured for each BSSID on a

THRESHOLD

WLAN. You can specify a value within the range of 0 to 255. The default value is

 

64.

 

 

LOCAL PROBE

Specify a threshold value to limit the number of incoming probe requests. When a

REQUEST

client sends a broadcast probe request frame to search for all available SSIDs, this

THRESHOLD

option controls system response for this network profile and ignores probe

 

requests if required. You can specify a Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI)

 

value within range of 0 to 100 dB.

 

 

6.Click Next to configure VLAN settings. For more information, see Configuring VLAN settings for a WLAN SSID profile on page 26.

Configuring VLAN settings for a WLAN SSID profile

If you are creating a new SSID profile, complete the WLAN settings procedure before configuring VLAN. For information, see Configuring WLAN settings on page 23.

To configure VLAN settings for an SSID:

1.In VLAN, select any of the following options for CLIENT IP ASSIGNMENT:

• Virtual Controller Assigned — On selecting this option, the client obtains the IP address from the VC. The VC creates a private subnet and VLAN on the AP for the wireless clients. The network address translation for all client traffic that goes out of this interface is carried out at the source. This setup eliminates the need for complex VLAN and IP address management for a multi-site wireless network. For more information on DHCP scopes and server configuration, see DHCP configuration on page 65.

• Network Assigned — Select this option to obtain the IP address from the network.

2.If Network Assigned is selected, specify any of the following options for the CLIENT VLAN ASSIGNMENT. • Default — On selecting this option, the client obtains the IP address in the same subnet as the APs. By

default, the client VLAN is assigned to the native VLAN on the wired network.

• Static — On selecting this option, you need to specify a single VLAN, a comma separated list of VLANS, or a range of VLANs for all clients on this network. Select this option for configuring VLAN pooling.

• Dynamic — On selecting this option, you can assign the VLANs dynamically from a DHCP server. To create VLAN assignment rules:

a.Click New to assign the user to a VLAN. The NEW VLAN ASSIGNMENT RULE pane is displayed.

b.Enter the following information:

• ATTRIBUTE — Select an attribute returned by the RADIUS server during authentication. • OPERATOR — Select an operator for matching the string.

• STRING — Enter the string to match.

• VLAN — Enter the VLAN to be assigned.

3.Click Next to configure security settings for the employee network. For more information, see Configuring security settings for a WLAN SSID profile on page 27.
