Configuring the Network
The fields on the Edit Access Control Server page show the current setting for the Access Control
Server. You can modify any of these values, except the IP address and System ID, which are read-only
fields.
Note:
The IP address can be changed under the Network Setup tab, along with other network
configuration settings.
The fields and options on this page are defined in Table 6-2:
Table 6-2. Edit Access Control Server Page Fields
Field/Option Description
Name An alphanumeric name for this Access Control Server. The default
name is the IP address of the unit.
A name may be up to 50 characters in length.
IP Address The IP address of this Access Control Server (read-only). This can
be changed under the Network Setup tab.
System ID The System ID is the MAC address of the reserved port on a 700wl
Series unit. On a 700wl Series unit, the System ID is the MAC

Shared Secret The shared secret used to establish a trust relationship between the
Access Control Server and its Access Controllers. This must be set
to a non-blank value.
Note: Once a connection has been established between the Access
Control Server and an Access Controller, changing the shared
secret on the Access Control Server will not disrupt the connection.
However, once the connection is lost, the Access Controller will not
be able to re-establish the connection.
Note: If this Access Control Server is in an active peer relationship
(i.e. redundancy is enabled) you cannot change the shared secret.
You must first disable redundancy.
