62 CHAPTER 4: WORKING WITH NETWORK PLANS
Traffic Ports Used by
a Mobility Domain
When deploying a Mobility Domain, you might attach the WX switches to
subnets that have firewalls or access controls between them. Within a
Mobility Domain, the WX switches exchange information and other types
of traffic, depending on your configuration of AAA and various
management services.
Table10 provides a summary of the traffic ports typically used by a
Mobility Domain and its associated AAA and management functions.
The traffic typically sent between WX switches within a Mobility Domain
uses IP/UDP protocol 17 traffic on port 8817 for both source and
destination. Roaming traffic uses IP protocol 4.
Creating a Mobility
Domain
The Create Mobility Domain wizard requires you to select the switches to
place in the Mobility Domain and to select the seed switch. Add the
switches to the network plan before you configure the Mobility Domain.
1Select the Configuration tool bar option.
2Select the network plan in the Organizer panel.
3Select the Mobility Domain task in the Task List panel. The Create
Mobility Domain wizard appears.
4In the Name box, type the name for the Mobility Domain (1 to 16
characters, with no spaces or tabs).
5Click Next.
