5. Refer to the Configuration field to define the following WLAN values
Brocade Mobility RFS6000 and RFS7000 System Reference Guide
53-1001858-01
ESSID
Displays the Extended Service Set ID (ESSID) associated with each WLAN. If
changing the ESSID, ensure the value used is unique.
Description If editing an existing WLAN, ensure its description is updated accordingly to best
describe the intended function of the WLAN.
Deny Static Client
Enabling this option provides WLAN based configuration to allow only traffic from
those clients whose IP is present in the layer 3 entity table. If the IP entry is not
present in the layer 3 entity table, the event will be logged and the packet dropped.
Enable URL Logging Enable URL Logging to log all HTTP GET requests. Along with the URL, a mobile unit
IP address will also be logged.
Independent Mode
Determines whether the WLAN is functioning as an independent or extended
WLAN in regards its support of adaptive AP (AAP) operation. Select the checkbox to
(AAP Only)
designate the WLAN as independent and prevent traffic from being forwarded to
the controller. Independent WLANs behave like WLANs as used on a a standalone
Access Point. Leave this option unselected (as is by default) to keep this WLAN an
extended WLAN (a typical centralized WLAN created on the controller).
For an overview of AAP and how it is configured and deployed using the controller
and Access Point, see
VLAN ID Assign the revised VLAN ID for this WLAN. Select the Dynamic Assignment
checkbox for an user based VLAN assignment when 802.1x EAP Authentication is
used.
Dynamic Assignment With any authentication method that involves a Radius server, the Radius server
may be configured to include a VLAN Id attribute in its "ACCESS Accept" response.
This VLAN, instead of the configured VLAN(s) on this WLAN, will be assigned to the
wireless client. Enabling this check mark will enable controller to take VLAN ID
from Radius response. When disabled, controller will ignore the VLAN ID from
Radius response.
Assign Multiple VLANs
Click this button when it is desirable to assign multiple VLANs to this WLAN. For
more information,
802.11w-PMF On WLANs with CCMP encryption enabled, choose a 802.11w-PMF mode from the
pulldown menu. Available options are:
•
•
•
SA Query Max Timeout Define the maximum time (in miliseconds) before an SA Query is timed out. The
valid timeout range is between 100msec and 6000msec with a default value of
1000msec.
SA Query Retry Timeout Define the maximum number of retries before an SA Query is timed out. The valid
retry range is between 10 and 1500 retries with a default value of 201 retries.
NOTE
If the WLAN is to support AAP, the Independent Mode (AAP Only) checkbox must be selected.
Additionally, the Access Point must have its auto discovery option enabled to be discovered by
the controller. For information on configuring an Access Point for AAP support, see
Configuration" on page 534.
NOTE
For a Radius supported VLAN to function, the Dynamic Assignment checkbox must be enabled
for the WLAN supporting the VLAN.
