WFS709TP ProSafe Smart Wireless Switch Software Administration Manual
Deploying a Basic WFS709TP System
2-3
v1.0, June 2007
Figure 2-2
shows a deployment scenario where the APs and the WFS709TP are on different
subnetworks and the APs are on multiple subnetworks. The WFS709TP acts as a router for the
wireless user subnetworks. (It is the default gateway for the wireless clients.) The uplink port on
the WFS709TP is connected to a Layer 2 switch or router; this port is an access port in VLAN 1.
You need to perform the following tasks:
1.
Run the initial setup (see
“Run the Initial Setup” on page 2-6
).
•
Set the IP address for VLAN 1.
•
Set the default gateway to the IP address of the interface of the upstream router to which
you will connect the WFS709TP.
2.
Connect the uplink port on the WFS709TP to the switch or router interface.
3.
Deploy the APs. The APs will use DNS or DHCP to locate the WFS709TP.
You would then need to configure VLANs for the wireless user subnetworks on the WFS709TP,
and configure SSIDs with the VLANs assigned for each wireless user subnetwork.
Note:
Each wireless user VLAN must be configured on the WFS709TP with an IP
address. On the uplink switch or router, you must configure static routes for each
user VLAN, with the WFS709TP’s VLAN 1 IP address as the next hop.
