Running the Setup Wizard

Figure 2-10 Enter Network Device Configuration Parameters Window

Step 12 Enter the network device parameters, as described in Table 2-5. The wizard uses this data to determine the number of IP addresses to allocate to the network device range. (This may have been familiar to current BBSM customers as the “Management Range.”) This information will also be used in the switch discovery part of the wizard.

Table 2-5 Enter Network Device Configuration Descriptions

Field

Description

 

 

Number of Network Devices

Enter the total number of switches and wireless access points that will

 

be installed on the BBSM internal network. You can also enter a larger

 

number than the current amount of network devices in anticipation of

 

additional devices in the future.

 

 

SNMP Password

Enter the SNMP password that is used to access network devices.

 

BBSM Hotspot needs this information to run switch discovery. Note

 

that on Cisco Catalyst switches, the SNMP password is also known as

 

the SNMP community read/write string.

 

 

Step 13 Click Next. The Calculating Internal Network Address Ranges window appears, providing you with a list of the internal IP address ranges that have been calculated and assigned by the BBSM Hotspot server. These include the following:

Network Device Addresses—These addresses are allocated to the network devices. This address range is allocated from the “Number of Network Devices” number entered in Step 12.
