Setting Up Devices

You must set up network devices so the WLSE can discover and manage them. This section describes both required and optional setup tasks for:

•Non-IOS access points—seeSet Up Non-IOS Access Points and Wireless Bridges, page 4-14

•IOS access points—seeSet Up IOS Access Points, page 4-16

•Routers and switches—seeSet Up Routers and Switches, page 4-21

•AAA servers—seeSet Up AAA Servers, page 4-22

Set Up Non-IOS Access Points and Wireless Bridges

You can set up access points and bridges in two ways:

•By using the WLSE’s automatic configuration option for first-time device configuration (select Configuration > Auto Update > Startup Configuration). For more information, see the online help or the User Guide for the Wireless LAN Solution Engine, Release 2.5.

•By opening a web browser session on each device and performing the tasks in the following table. To use this method, you must first configure each access point or bridge for web browsing.
