Service PortService Port
• The Service port on the Cisco 4100 Series Wireless LAN Controller front panel can be configured
with a separate IP Address, subnet mask, and IP assignment protocol from the Distribution
System (network) port. To display and configure the Service port parameters, use the following
commands:
>show interface detailed service-port
>config interface
Radio Resource Management (RRM)Radio Resource Management (RRM)
• The Operating System Radio Resource Management (RRM) function automatically recognizes
Cisco 1000 Series lightweight access points as they appear in the air space, and when they are
part of the same Controller Mobility Group
, automatically configures them for optimal operation
in their respective frequency bands.
Typically, you will not need to manually configure anything after enabling and/or disabling the
802.11a and 802.11b/g networks as described in Configuring System Parameters
. However,
you may want to fine-tune the network operation using the config 802.11a, config
802.11b, config advanced 802.11a, config advanced 802.11b, config cell, and
config load balancing command sets.
Serial (CLI Console) PortSerial (CLI Console) Port
• The Cisco Wireless LAN Controller serial port is set for a 9600 baud rate and a short timeout. If
you would like to change either of these values, use the config serial baudrate and config
serial timeout commands to make your changes. Note that if you enter config serial
timeout 0, serial sessions never time out.
802.3x Flow Control802.3x Flow Control
• 802.3x Flow Control is normally disabled on the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller. If you would like
to change either of these settings, use the config switchconfig flowcontrol command.
System LoggingSystem Logging
• Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers are shipped with the syslog function disabled. Use the show
syslog command to view the current syslog status, and if required, use the config syslog
command to send a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller log to a remote IP Address or hostname.
You have configured the basic parameters for a Cisco SWAN. Continue with Using the Cisco SWAN CLI
.
Adding SSL to the Web User InterfaceAdding SSL to the Web User Interface
When you plan to secure the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller HTTP: Web User Interface using the https:
(HTTP + SSL) protocol, note that the Operating System automatically generates its own local Web
Administration SSL certificate and automatically applies it to the Web User Interface. Verify whether or
not the locally generated Web Administration certificate is already loaded:
>show certificate summary
Web Administration Certificate................. Locally Generated
Web Authentication Certificate................. Locally Generated
Certificate compatibility mode:................ off
Continue with either of the following two sections:
• Locally Generated Certificate or an
• Externally Generated Certificate.
