20 CHAPTER 1: WX SWITCH OVERVIEW IP Services IP interfaces-You can configure an IP interface for each VLAN. IP ping and traceroute-You can test IP connectivity between the WX switch and other devices. Domain Name Service (DNS)-You can configure the switch to use DNS servers for name resolution. You also can configure a default domain name to append to hostnames. Network Time Protocol (NTP)-A WX switch can sets its time and date by polling an NTP server. System log-A WX generates log messages to log system events. The log messages are stored locally and also can be exported to syslog servers. Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)-A WX switch can be configured to generate SNMP traps for major system events. Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting 802.1X-A WX switch can authenticate users based on 802.1X protocols. Based on authentication, users are assigned VLAN membership, access control, and roaming boundaries. MAC authentication-If a device does not support 802.1X, you can configure authentication based on the source MAC address to assign VLAN membership, access control, and roaming boundaries. Guest authentication-Guests can be authenticated by a shared set of authorization attributes that assign VLAN membership, access control, and roaming boundaries. Local and remote authentication-You can authenticate users locally using information configured on the WX switch, or use a Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) server. When you use a remote server, the WX switch can enhance performance by performing some of the AAA tasks locally or distributing the load across multiple servers. Roaming MAP access point roaming-You can configure the WX switch to allow users to roam from one MAP access point to another on the same WX switch. Mobility Domain™ roaming-You also can configure a group of WX switches to allow users to roam from one switch to another. Regardless of the wired subnet connections, each user maintains the same IP address and session across the network. Session management-You can display session information and statistics for users.
