Configuring Wireless LANs

Activating Wireless LANs

After you have completely configured your wireless LAN settings, enter config wlan enable wlan-id to

activate the wireless LAN.

Assigning a Wireless LAN to a DHCP Server

Each wireless LAN can be assigned to a DHCP server. Any or all wireless LANs can be assigned to the

same DHCP server, and each wireless LAN can be assigned to different DHCP servers.

Note DHCP servers must be assigned for wireless LANs that allow management through a wireless

connection.

•Enter this command to assign a wireless LAN to a DHCP server:

config wlan dhcp_server wlan-id dhcp-server-ip-address

•Enter show wlan to verify that the wireless LAN is assigned to the DHCP server.

Configuring MAC Filtering for Wireless LANs

When you use MAC filtering for client or administrator authorization, you need to enable it at the

wireless LAN level first. If you plan to use local MAC address filtering for any wireless LAN, use the

commands in this section to configure MAC filtering for a wireless LAN.

Enabling MAC Filtering

Use these commands to enable MAC filtering on a wireless LAN:

•Enter config wlan mac-filtering enable wlan-id to enable MAC filtering.

•Enter show wlan to verify that you have MAC filtering enabled for the wireless LAN.

When you enable MAC filtering, only the MAC addresses that you add to the wireless LAN are allowed

to join the wireless LAN. MAC addresses that have not been added are not allowed to join the wireless

LAN.

Creating a Local MAC Filter

Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers have built-in MAC filtering capability, similar to that provided by a

RADIUS authorization server.

Use these commands to add MAC addresses to a wireless LAN MAC filter:

•Enter show macfilter to view MAC addresses assigned to wireless LANs.

•Enter config macfilter add mac-addr wlan-id to assign a MAC address to a wireless LAN MAC

filter.

•Enter show macfilter to verify that MAC addresses are assigned to the wireless LAN.
