4/1/05 Adding a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller to Cisco WCS
OL-7426-02
Enter the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller IP Address, Network Mask, and required SNMP settings
in the Add Controller data entry fields.
Click OK, and the Cisco WCS User Interface displays the Please wait. . . dialog screen while it
contacts the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller, adds the current Cisco Wireless LAN Controller
configuration to the Cisco WCS database, and then returns you to the Add Controller page.
Note: Cisco SWAN recommends that you manage each Cisco 4100 Series Wireless
LAN Controller via the dedicated front-panel Service Port
for highest security. If any
Cisco 4100 Series Wireless LAN Controller has its Service port disabled, you will
manage the Cisco 4100 Series Wireless LAN Controller through its Management
Interface.
Note: Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers are factory-configured with SNMP Version 2C
enabled, which is the most secure and slowest version. After you have logged into
the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller, you can change the SNMP parameters and re-add
the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller to the Cisco WCS database.
