Dell PowerConnect W-AirWave 7.4 | Configuration Guide Configuration Reference | 77
LMS IP In multi-controller networks, this parameter specifies the IP address of the
local management switch (LMS)—the Dell PowerConnect W-Series controller—
which is responsible for terminating user traffic from the APs, and processing and
forwarding the traffic to the wired network. This can be the IP address of the local
or master controller.
When using redundant controllers as the LMS, set this parameter to be the
VRRP IP address to ensure that APs always have an active IP address with
which to terminate sessions.For those APs that need to boot off the local controller,
configure the LMS IP address to point to the new local controller.
LMS IPv6 The IPv6 address of the local management switch (LMS)—the Dell controller
which is responsible for terminating user traffic from the APs, and processing and
forwarding the traffic to the wired network. Requires a minimum version of 6.1.0.0
Backup LMS IP In multi-controller networks, specify the IPv4 address of a backup to the IP address
specified with the LMS IP field.
Backup LMS IPv6 For multi-controller networks, specify the IPv6 address of a backup to the IP
address specified with the LMS IPv6 field.
LMS Preemption No The AP fallback feature allows an AP associated with the backup controller
(backup LMS) to fail back to the primary controller (primary LMS) if it becomes
available. Enable LMS preemption with this field.
LMS Hold-down Period
(1-3600 sec)
600 Enter the amount of time the remote AP must wait before moving back to the
primary controller.
Number of IPSEC
Retries
360 Number of times the AP will try to create an IPsec tunnel with the master controller
before the AP will reboot. If you specify a value of 0, and AP will not reboot if it
cannot create the IPsec tunnel. The supported range of values is 0-1000 retries,
and the default value is 360 retries.
Master controller IP
Address
Enter the IP address of the master controller.
LED Operating Mode normal The operating mode for the AP LEDs. Options are normal and off.
RF Band g Indicates the band for mesh operation for multiband radios. Select a or g.
Important: If you create more than one mesh cluster profile for an AP or AP group,
each mesh cluster profile must use the same band.
RF Band for AM mode
scanning
all Scanning band for multiple RF radios. Options are all, a, or g. Requires a minimum of
6.0.0.0.
Double Encrypt No The double encryption feature applies only for traffic to and from a wireless client
that is connected to a tunneled SSID. When this feature is enabled, all traffic
(which is already encrypted using Layer-2 encryption) is re-encrypted in the IPSec
tunnel. When this feature is disabled, the wireless frame is only encapsulated
inside the IPSec tunnel. All other types of data traffic between the controller and
the AP (wired traffic and traffic from a split-tunneled SSID) are always encrypted in
the IPSec tunnel.
Native VLAN ID
(0-4094)
1 Enter the ID of the native VLAN. The supported range is from 0 to 4094.
SAP MTU Specify the Service Access Point (SAP) maximum transmission unit (MTU) in bytes.
The range is 1024 to 1578 bytes.
