Chapter 4 Configuring Controller Settings

Configuring the Supervisor 720 to Support the WiSM

 

Command

Purpose

Step 7

interface port-channel 2

Configure a port-channel to bundle the automatically created

 

 

Gigabit interfaces 5-8 into an etherchannel.

 

 

 

 

a. switchport trunk

Configure the second port-channel as the first.

 

encapsulation dot1q

 

b.switchport trunk native vlan vlan

c.switchport mode trunk

 

d.

end

Return to global config mode.

Step 8

 

 

interface GigabitEthernet9/1-4

Establish a separate Gigabit etherchannel for the first controller

 

 

 

on the WiSM. For the native VLAN on the ports, configure the

 

 

 

VLAN that you created for communicating with the WiSM data

 

 

 

ports.

 

 

 

 

 

a.

switchport trunk

Configure the previously created port-channel interfaces as trunk

 

 

encapsulation dot1q

ports. For the native VLAN on the ports, configure the VLAN that

 

 

 

you created for communicating with the WiSM data ports.

 

 

 

 

b. switchport trunk native vlan

 

 

 

vlan

 

 

 

 

 

 

c.

switchport mode trunk

 

 

 

 

 

 

d.

channel-group 1 mode on

Bind the physical GigabitEthernet interfaces to the logical

 

 

 

port-channel interface.

Step 9

 

 

interface GigabitEthernet9/5-8

Establish a separate Gigabit etherchannel for the second

 

 

 

controller on the WiSM. For the native VLAN on the ports,

 

 

 

configure the VLAN that you created for communicating with the

 

 

 

WiSM data ports.

 

 

 

 

 

a.

switchport trunk

Configure the second group of GigabitEthernet interfaces as the

 

 

encapsulation dot1q

first.

b.switchport trunk native vlan vlan

c.switchport mode trunk

 

d. channel-group 2 mode on

Bind the physical GigabitEthernet interfaces to the logical

 

 

port-channel interface.

Step 10

 

 

interface vlan

Create a VLAN to communicate with the service ports on the

 

 

WiSM.

Step 11

 

 

ip address ip-address gateway

Assign an IP address and gateway to the VLAN.

Step 12

 

 

end

Return to global config mode.

Step 13

 

 

wism service-vlan vlan

Configure the VLAN that you created in step 10 to communicate

 

 

with the WiSM service ports.

Step 14

 

 

end

Return to global config mode.

Step 15

 

 

show wism status

Verify that the WiSM is operational.
