3Com OfficeConnect WX1200 Release Note page 13

Use an enable password that follows the password
recommendations given above.
Use a CA-signed certificate instead of a self-signed
certificate on the WX switch.
If a user's client does not trust the certificate, the user
might experience an additional delay during login. To
avoid the additional delay, use a certificate signed by
your CA or an Internet CA.
3WXM
By default, access to 3WXM and the 3WXM monitor-
ing service do not require passwords. To secure
access, configure user accounts within each instance
of 3WXM and the monitoring service.
The monitoring service uses a signed certificate for
authentication. The monitoring service has a
self-signed certificate by default. For added security,
used a certificate signed by a CA instead. To use a
CA-signed certificate, install the certificate in a key
store file on the machine where the monitoring ser-
vice is installed, and change the name of the key store
file used by the monitoring service from its default to
the one where you installed the certificate signed by
the CA.
Communication between the WX Switch and 3WXM
or Web Manager
Administration certificate requirement (11974)
Before the WX switch can communicate successfully
with 3WXM, you must create an administrative
encryption certificate on the WX switch. For details,

tion and Basic Configuration Guide.
Mobility Domain™ (Multiple WX Switch) Best
Practices
Run the same MSS version on all WX switches in
the Mobility Domain.
3Com recommends that you run the same MSS ver-
sion on all the WX switches in a Mobility Domain.
Helpful commands
Use the following commands to verify the proper
operation of a Mobility Domain in support of features
such as subnet roaming:
display mobility-domain status—In a function-
ing Mobility Domain, the output on every WX
switch displays every WX switch in the Mobility
Domain.
display roaming vlan—In a functioning Mobility
Domain, the output on every WX switch displays
the network-attached VLAN of every other WX
switch in the Mobility Domain.
Other useful commands, documented in the Wireless
LAN Switch and Controller Command Reference,
include display tunnel and display roaming sta-
tion.
