Configuring and Managing Mobility Domain Roaming 189

Monitoring Roaming Sessions

To monitor the state of roaming clients, use the show sessions network verbose command. For example, the following command displays information about the sessions of a wireless client who roamed between the ports on an WSS switch.

The output shows that the client SHUTTLE\2\exAPl roamed from the AP access point connected to port 3 to the AP connected to port 6 on the same WSS, and then roamed back to the AP connected to port 3.

Mobility Domain Scenario

The following scenario illustrates how to create a Mobility Domain named sunflower consisting of three members from a seed WSS switch at 192.168.253.21:

1Make the current WSS the Mobility Domain seed. Type the following command:

23x0# set mobility-domain mode seed domain-name sunflower success: change accepted.

2On the seed, add the members of the Mobility Domain. Type the following commands:

23x0# set mobility-domain member 192.168.253.11 success: change accepted.

23x0# set mobility-domain member 192.168.111.112 success: change accepted.

3For each member WSS, configure the IP address used to reach the seed WSS. Type the following commands:

23x0# set mobility-domain member seed-ip 192.168.253.21

4Display the Mobility Domain status. Type the following command:

23x0# show mobility-domain status
Mobility Domain name: sunflower
