MSM7xx Controllers Configuration Guide v6.4.0

Inheritance
Configuration settings are inherited as follows:
• Settings made at the Controlled APs level are inherited by all groups.
• Settings made at the Group level are inherited by all the APs in a group.
To change inherited configuration settings you must first clear the Inherited checkbox. For example,
the following image shows the 802.1X page with the Inherited checkbox cleared, allowing all
settings on this page to be customized.
Binding VSCs to groups
The controller defines a global pool of VSCs (see “Working with VSCs” (page 112)) that represents
all services that are available. From this pool, specific VSCs can be bound to one or more groups,
to define the features that will be offered to users throughout the wireless network.
NOTE: VSCs cannot be bound to individual APs or to the base group. VSC can only be bound
to a group.
Any changes to a bound VSC affect all groups (and APs) to which the VSC is bound, making it
easy to manage configuration changes network-wide.
A key setting when binding a VSC to a group is the Egress network. If you enable this option, it
can alter where the APs send user traffic. See “Traffic flow for wireless users” (page 221) for detailed
information on how the Egress network in a VSC binding can be affected by different configuration
settings.
