assigned IP address. The default value for Lease default is 36000 seconds (10 hours), the
default value for Lease Max is 2539000 seconds.
DNS Server – This text box relates to the IP address of the domain name server on the
■
enterprise network.
Use DHCP Relay: If you select Use DHCP Relay, the local DHCP server on the Summit WM
●
Controller is disabled and the Summit WM Controller instead forwards DHCP requests to the
external DHCP server for dynamic IP addresses allocation. For more information, see
relay for WM-AD" on page 17
Gateway – For more information, see Step #5
■
Mask – For more information, see Step #5
■
DHCP Server – IP address of the external DHCP server on the enterprise network.

6 From the Network Assignment drop-down list, select the network assignment.
The Network Assignment drop-down list gives you two options – SSID and AAA. To learn more
about SSID and AAA, see
SSID network assignment:
●
Allow mgmt traffic – If the management traffic is enabled, it overrides the built-in exception
■
filters that prohibit traffic on the Summit WM Controller data interfaces. For more information
on filters, see "Section 7.6 Configuring filtering rules for WM-AD" of the Summit WM User
Guide.
Allow 3rd Party AP – If Allow 3rd Party AP is enabled, it allows for the specification of a
■
segregated subnet for non-WM Wireless APs for providing RF services to the users while still
utilizing the Summit WM Controller for user authentication and the user policy enforcement.
The definition of third-party AP identification parameters allows the system to be able to
differentiate the third-party AP device (and the corresponding traffic) from the user devices on
that segment. Devices identified as third-party APs are considered pre-authenticated and are
not required to complete the corresponding authentication verification stages defined for the
users in that segment.
7 Type the values in the following three Timeout text boxes:
Idle (Pre) Timeout – Number of seconds a user is allowed to be idle on the WM-AD before
●
authentication.
Idle (Post) Timeout – Number of seconds a user is allowed to idle on the WM-AD after
●
authentication.
Session – Maximum amount of time a session is allowed on the system. If you leave this text box
●
blank, there will be no time limit.
8 Type the values in the Next Hop Routing text boxes.
Next Hop Address – The next-hop IP identifies the target device to which all WM-AD (user
●
traffic) will be forwarded to. Next-hop definition supersedes any other possible definition in the
routing table.
OSPF Route Cost – The OSPF cost value provides a relative cost indication to allow upstream
●
routers to calculate whether or not to use the Summit WM Controller as a better fit, or lowest cost
path to reach the devices in a particular network. The higher the cost, the less likely that the
Summit WM Controller will be chosen as a route for traffic, unless that Summit WM Controller is
the only possible route for that traffic.
Disable OSPF Advertisement – To disable the OSPF advertisement on the WM-AD select
●
Disable OSPF Advertisement.
