Verifying the Configuration

4. Make sure that the L3 Tunnel Status is "Configured" for the L3-Tunnel network (on
the Wireless Network Configuration page of the L3-Tunnel network Administration
Basic Setup
5. From a wireless client, verify that you can see the SSIDs for the following:
• Guest Network
• D-LINK NET1
• D-LINK NET2
• L3-Tunnel
6. Connect to the L3-Tunnel SSID.
7. After connecting, check the IP address that the switch DHCP server assigned.
8. Start the Roaming Test.

Testing the L3 Roaming Feature

The following procedures show how to perform an L3 Tunnel roaming test.
1. Use your laptop to test wireless connection by associating to the L3-Tunnel SSID Network,
and check if you're getting the IP address correctly from customers' DHCP server.
2. Once wireless connectivity is confirmed, you can check which AP your laptop connects to
[ WLAN/ Monitoring/ Client/ Associated Clients ]
3. Start to Ping one the LAN interfaces (172.17.5.253 or .254) or its loopback interface
( 192.168.10.254 )
4. Disconnect the AP which your laptop is connecting to and see how soon you can roam to the
other AP. Normally 1 or 2 ping loss between roaming for current release. This is the easier
way to simulate when you walk out the coverage of one AP and roam to another one.
5. You can repeat step 2-4 and observe your laptop roam from AP to AP without changing IP,
re-authentication and with limited packet loss.
Logs & Traps
The administrator can enable or disable SNMP traps sent from the wireless switch and the trap
destinations. The traps can be enabled or disabled by traversing to Administration
Configuration Global in the WLAN tab. In managed mode the AP doesn't generate any
traps. The list below shows all the possible traps generated on the wireless switch:
Note: All traps are disabled by default.
