(host)(config-if)#description <string>
(host)(config-if)#trusted {vlan <word>}
(host)(config-range)#switchport mode trunk
(host)(config-if)#switchport trunk native vlan <vlan>

Configuring Static Routes
To configure a static route (such as a default route) on the controller, do the following:
In the WebUI
1. Navigate to the Configuration > Network > IP > IP Routes page.
2. Click Add to add a static route to a destination network or host. Enter the destination IP address and
network mask (255.255.255.255 for a host route) and the next hop IP address.
3. Click Done to add the entry. Note that the route has not yet been added to the routing table.
4. Click Apply .. The message Configuration Updated Successfully confirms that the route has been
added.
In the CLI
Use the following examples:
(host)(config) #ip route <address> <netmask> <next_hop>
Configuring the Loopback IP Address
The loopback IP address is a logical IP interface that is used by the controller to communicate with APs. The
loopback address is used as the controller’s IP address for terminating VPN and GRE tunnels, originating
requests to RADIUS servers, and accepting administrative communications. You configure the loopback
address as a host address with a 32-bit netmask. The loopback address is not bound to any specific interface
and is operational at all times. To use this interface, ensure that the IP address is reachable through one of the
VLAN interfaces. It will be routable from all external networks.
You must configure a loopback address if you are not using VLAN1 to connect the controller to the network. If
you do not configure the loopback interface address, then the first configured VLAN interface address is
selected. Generally, VLAN 1 is the factory default setting and thus becomes the controller IP address.
