Configuring and managing Mobility Domain roaming 217
Nortel WLAN—Security Switch 2300 Series Configuration Guide

Configuring the seed

You must explicitly configure only one WSS per domain as the seed. All other WSSs in the domain receive their
Mobility Domain information from the seed.
Use the following command to set the current WSS as the seed device and name the Mobility Domain:
set mobility-domain mode seed domain-name mob-domain-name
For example, the following command sets the current WSS as the seed and names the Mobility Domain Pleasanton:
WSS# set mobility-domain mode seed domain-name Santa Clara
success: change accepted.
The Mobility Domain name is assigned to the seed WSS only. The WSS system IP address is used as the source IP
address for all Mobility Domain communications. If the system IP address is not set, WSS Software issues a warning
when you enter the set mobility-domain mode seed domain-name command, to inform you that the Mobility Domain is
not operational until the system IP is set.

Configuring member WSSs on the seed

To configure the list of members on the Mobility Domain seed for distribution to other member WSSs, use the following
command on the seed WSS:
set mobility-domain member ip-addr
For example, the following commands add two members with IP addresses 192.168.12.7 and 192.168.15.5 to a Mobility
Domain whose seed is the current WSS:
WSS# set mobility-domain member 192.168.12.7
success: change accepted.
WSS# set mobility-domain member 192.168.15.5
success: change accepted.
Each command adds a member identified by its IP address to the list of Mobility Domain members. If the WSS from
which you enter the command is not configured as a seed, the command is rejected.
