Connecting the Wireless Controller

To install the wireless controller, perform the following procedure:
1. Install the controller and access points according to the instructions in their documentation.
2. Connect one end of an Ethernet LAN cable to one of the ports labeled LAN (1-4) on the front of the
wireless controller. Connect the other end of the cable to an available RJ-45 port on a switch in the LAN
network segment.
3. Connect one of the wireless controller ports labeled LAN (1-4) to the network or directly to a PC.
4. If you purchased a VPN/Firewall/Router License Pack, use the Option1 and Option2 ports on the front of
the wireless controller as follows:
• Option1 = WAN port for connecting to a cable or DSL modem.
• Option2 = WAN or DMZ port for dual WAN connections or internal server farm purposes. If used as
a DMZ port, the port's IP address must be different than the IP address of the wireless controller's
LAN interface.
5. Using the supplied power cord, connect the wireless controller to a working AC outlet.
6. The Power LED will illuminate orange during boot up. The LED will turn green once the wireless controller
has booted.
