Domain name and DNS server address
You can enable the switch to use the MSS DHCP client to obtain this information from a DHCP 
server in the local network where the switch will be deployed. Alternatively, you can statically 
configure the information. 
The IP address and DNS information are configured independently. You can configure the 
combination of settings that work with the network resources available at the deployment site. 
The following examples show some of the combinations you can configure.
You must configure an administrative certificate, to enable the switch to communicate with the 
RASM server. You can configure a self‐signed certificate or install one from a certificate authority 
(CA). These examples use a self‐signed certificate. 
Example 1: Deployment Site Has DHCP and Local DNS
The deployment site in this example has a DHCP server. The switch is configured to use the MSS 
DHCP client to obtain an IP address, default gateway address, DNS domain name, and DNS 
server IP addresses.

Create a self‐signed administrative certificate, to enable RASM or WebView to communicate 
with the RoamAbout wireless switch.
