Enter Switch Role, (master|local|standalone|branc h) Specify one of the following switch roles:  Master: This controller manages other controllers on the network. You are prompted to specify the type of authentication to be used by the master controller. If you are configuring a master controller that uses pre-shared key authentication to communicate with local controllers, enter the pre-shared key. If you are configuring a master controller to use certificate authentication, specify the MAC addresses of the local controllers.  Local: This controller will be managed by a master controller.You are prompted to specify the type of authentication to be used by the controller. If you are configuring a local controller to use pre-shared key authentication to communicate with the master controller, enter the IP address of the master controller and the pre-shared key. If you are configuring a local controller to use certificate authentication, specify the MAC addresses of the master controller.  Standalone: This is the only controller on your network.  Branch: This controller will most likely use cloud security architectures instead of dedicated security appliances, and where clients are likely to access applications in the cloud, rather than on local application servers. Enter VLAN 1 interface IP address NOTE: This prompt is not applicable if the switch role is branch. The controller takes its IP address from VLAN 1 and uses this IP address to communicate with other controllers and with APs. Enter an IPv4 VLAN 1 interface IP address, or press Enter without specifying an IP address to use the default address 172.16.0.254. Enter VLAN 1 interface subnet mask NOTE: This prompt is not applicable if the switch role is branch. Enter an IPv4 VLAN 1 interface IP subnet mask, or press Enter without specifying an IP address to use the default address 255.255.255.0. Enter IP Default gateway NOTE: This prompt is not applicable if the switch role is branch. This is usually the IP address of the interface on the upstream switch or router to which you will connect the controller. The default gateway and the VLAN 1 IP address need to be in the same network. Enter an IPv4 gateway IP address, or press Enter to continue without specifying an IP gateway. Do you wish to configure an IPv6 address on vlan 1 (yes|no) [yes]: NOTE: This prompt is not applicable if the switch role is branch. Enter yes to configure an IPv6 address on the VLAN 1 interface.
