To perform pre-installation configuration, perform the following steps:
Step 1 Make sure that the Cisco wireless LAN controller DS port is connected to the network. Use
the CLI, web-browser interface, or Cisco WCS procedures as described in the appropriate
Cisco wireless LAN controller guide.
a. Make sure that access points have Laye
r 3 connectivity to the Cisco wireless LAN controller
Management and AP-Manager Interface.
b. Configure the switch to which y
our access point is to attach. See the Cisco Wireless LAN
Controller Configuration Guide, Release x.x for additional information.
c. Set the Cisco wir
eless LAN controller as the master so that new access points always join with
it.
d. Make sure
DHCP is enabled on the network. The access point must receive its IP address
through DHCP.
