ProSafe 20-AP Wireless Controller WC7520
To accommodate all types of networks, almost all configuration menus of the web
management interface are divided into basic and advanced submenus. The following figure
shows an example of the Security > Wireless > Basic submenu on the left and the
Security > Wireless > Advanced submenu on the right:
Figure 7.
Before you start the configuration of your wireless controller, decide whether you can use a
basic configuration (that is, follow the basic submenus) or need to use an advanced
configuration (that is, follow the advanced submenus). Once you have made your choice,
configuring the wireless controller should be fairly easy if you consistently follow either the
basic submenus or the advanced submenus.
Profile Groups
Each access point can support up to 8 security profiles (16 for dual-band access points),
each with its own SSID, security settings, MAC ACL, rate-limiting settings, WMM, and so on.
The wireless controller follows the same architecture. A profile group on the wireless
contro
ller includes all the features that you can configure for an individual access point: up to
8 profiles (16 for dual-band access points), each of which has its own SSID, security, MAC
ACL, rate-limiting settings, WMM settings, and so on.
Basic Profile
The basic profile includes all the settings that are required to configure a fully functional
access point with up to 8 security profiles (16 for dual-band access points).
After you have used the automatic discovery process and added access points to the
manag
ed AP list on the wireless controller, the access points are assigned by default to the
basic profile group.
If your network requires the wireless controller to manag
e multiple access points with
different configurations, use the advanced profile.
