ProSafe 20-AP Wireless Controller WC7520
For information about the network status and related information, see View the
Wireless Controller Summary Screen on p

3. C
onfigure the wireless controller and your network:
a. RF planning. Fol
low instructions in Chapter 3, RF Planning, to plan the number and
location of the access points.
b. Configure your network. F
ollow the instructions in Chapter 4 through Chapter 10 to
configure your network, including the SSIDs, security
, MAC ACLs, captive portal,
QoS, rate limiting, and so on.
c. Set up the wireless controller. Follow the in
structions in System Planning on
page 27 to select the type of deployment for your network.
d. Add the access points. Follow the
steps in Access Point Discovery and Discovery
Guidelines on p
age 51 to discover your access points and add them to wireless
controller’s managed access point list.
Basic and Advanced Settings
You can deploy the wireless controller in a small wireless network with 10 or 20 access points
or in a large wireless network with up to 150 access points. Small networks require a basic
configuration, but large networks can become very complex and require you to configure the
advanced features of the wireless controller.
Depending on your network configuration, use basic settings or advanced settings to manage
you
r access points:
• Basic
settings for a typical network. The basic settings work with most common
network configurations. For example, all access points on the WLAN are for the same
organization or business and therefore adhere to the same policies and use a small
number of service set identifiers (SSIDs, or network names).
• Adva
nced settings for access point profile groups. If you have a large wireless
network, or if completely separate networks share a single WLAN, use the advanced
settings to set up multiple access point profile groups with multiple security profiles
(SSIDs with associated security settings). For example, a shopping mall might need
several access point profile groups if several businesses share a WLAN but each
business has its own network. Larger networks could require multiple access point profile
groups to allow different policies per building or department. The access points could
have different security profiles per building and department, for example, one for guests,
one for management, one for sales, and so on.
Note: Access point profile groups are also referred to as just profile
groups.
Profiles, security profiles, and SSIDs (that is, SSIDs with associated
security settings) are terms that are interchangeable.
