Model 510 Sensor: Installation Guide
7
Zero-Configuration Options
As an alternative to the manual IP configuration described earlier in this guide, AirDefense provides
two options that let you install Sensors without locally configuring the primary Enterprise server on
each sensor. The Zero-Configuration options are:
• Using Domain Name Resolution (DNS)
• Using Vendor Options from the DHCP Server
7.1 Using Domain Name Resolution (DNS)
Sensor deployment can be simplified by having the Sensor can find the primary server via DNS
(Domain Name System) resolution. Each sensor is shipped with primary AirDefense server configured
as "airdefense1" and the secondary server configured as "airdefense2".
1. Determine the IP addresses of your Primary and Secondary AirDefense server appliance
2. Configure your DNS (Domain Name Server) to resolve the hostname to the appropriate IP
address.
