Setting up a WM-AD defines a virtual IP subnet for a group of wireless device users, where the Summit
WM Controller acts as a default gateway to wireless devices. For each WM-AD, you define its topology,
authentication, accounting, RADIUS servers, filtering, multicast parameters, privacy and policy
mechanism. When you set up a new WM-AD, additional tabs appear only after you save the topology.
NOTE
When configuring a WM-AD, you can navigate between the various WM-AD tabs and define your configuration
without having to save your changes on each individual tab. Once your WM-AD configuration is complete, you can
click Save on any WM-AD tab to save your complete WM-AD configuration.
NOTE
If you navigate away from the WM-AD tabs without saving your WM-AD changes, your WM-AD configuration changes
will be lost.
