communicate with them as described in "BlueSecure Access Points" on page 12-1.
Multiple BSCs
Install and use multiple BSCs for larger networks, such as those that are segmented into
different floors, subnets, or buildings. Refer to Chapter 2, "Installation," for information on
mounting and network connection procedures. After completing the physical connections,
refer to Chapter 14, "Secure Mobility® MatriX," for procedures to configure multiple
BSCs in a Secure Mobility® Matrix to achieve features such as configuration replication,
secure subnet roaming, and load balancing.
Note: We recommend that you use the BlueView™ Management System to manage
multiple WLAN deployments that use six or more BlueSecure Controllers. BVMS provides
centralized configuration, policy-management, and monitoring capabilities to facilitate
rapid configuration and remote management of multi-site WLAN deployments.

authentication for those devices by following the steps listed in "Defining MAC
Address Authentication" on page 5-5.
When setting up authentication via LDAP/Active Directory over SSL; Cosign,
Pubcookie, or CAS authentication over SSL; or via an IPSec tunnel that uses
digital certificates for authentication, install the certificates on the BSC (see
"Configuring External Server Authentication Over SSL" on page 9-14).
If you are using two BSCs to achieve failover operation, configure the BSC
failover parameters listed in "Configuring Failover Parameters" on page 4-25.
You can configure static routes for any network device that is not included in the
BSC routing table as described in "Configuring Static Routes" on page 4-28.
You can configure the BSC to support multicast routing using Distance Vector
Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP) or Protocol-Independent Multicast-Sparse
Mode (PIM-SM) as described in "Configuring Multicast Routing" on page 4-30.
You can configure the BSC to support AppleTalk as described in "Configuring
AppleTalk Routing" on page 4-31.
Modify the BSC HTTP parameters and other general BSC configuration settings
as described beginning in "General BSC Operational Settings" on page 10-1.
