•Ensure that the master WFS709TP recognizes the new WFS709TP as its local WFS709TP.

Figure 10-2

The local WFS709TP should be listed with type local in the Monitoring > Network > All WLAN Switches page on the master (see Figure 10-2). It takes about 4–5 minutes for the master and local WFS709TPs to synchronize configurations.

Configuring Trusted Ports

•On the local WFS709TP, navigate to the Configuration > Advanced > Switch > General > Port page and make sure that the port connecting to the master WFS709TP is trusted.

•On the master WFS709TP, make sure that the port connecting to the local WFS709TP is trusted.

Configuring APs

For APs that boot from the local WFS709TP, you must configure the LMS IP address under the AP’s location ID. This configuration has to be done on the master WFS709TP. When the changes are applied, the master WFS709TP pushes these configurations to the local WFS709TP.

To configure the LMS IP address:

1.Navigate to the Configuration > Advanced > WLAN > Advanced > General page.

2.Configure the LMS IP (see Figure 10-3).
