To best use this guide, you should have already designed the wireless topology of your network and have a working knowledge of how controllers function in a wireless LAN network. Figure 1 shows a 2504 controller network topology and network connections, showing the medium dependent interface (MDI) Ethernet cables required. The controller has an auto MDI feature, so you can use straight-through or crossover cables.
