ProSAFE Wireless Controller Remote Access Point Discovery Guidelines The following guidelines apply to the discovery of remote access points: • Enable SNMP and SSH on all standalone access points. • Unblock the following ports in the firewall at the site where the wireless controller is located so that the remote access points can communicate with the wireless controller: - For models WC7600 and WC9500: • TCP port 22. Used by Secure Shell (SSH) and Secure Copy (SCP) for the transfer of software images and large configuration files and for the transfer over a tunnel. • UDP port 69. Used by TFTP for software image upgrades of standalone access points. • UDP port 123. Used by Network Time Protocol (NTP). • UDP port 138. Used by NetBIOS to resolve names. • UDP port 161. Used by the SNMP discovery process. • UDP port 6650. Used by the control channel between the wireless controller and the remote access point. • UDP port 7890. Used by the multicast discovery process. This port does not need to be unblocked in a configuration in which remote access points are located behind a NAT router. - For models WC7500 and WC7600v2: • TCP port 22. Used by Secure Shell (SSH) and Secure Copy (SCP) for the transfer of software images and large configuration files and for the transfer over a tunnel. • TCP port 6670. Used for communication and backward compatibility with access points that run an older firmware release. • TCP port 6680. Used for communication and backward compatibility with access points that run an older firmware release. • UDP port 69. Used by TFTP for software image upgrades of standalone access points. • UDP port 123. Used by Network Time Protocol (NTP). • UDP port 138. Used by NetBIOS datagram service. • UDP port 161. Used by the SNMP discovery process. • UDP port 6650. Used by the control channel between the wireless controller and the remote access point. • UDP port 7000. Used for Layer 3 roaming support. • UDP port 7890. Used by the multicast discovery process. This port does not need to be unblocked in a configuration in which remote access points are located behind a NAT router. Discover and Manage Access Points 157
