Chapter 18 VPN Configuration This chapter describes the following VPN configuration procedures: l Understanding VPN Features on page 224 l Configuring a Tunnel from a W-IAP to a Mobility Controller on page 225 l Configuring Routing Profiles on page 236 Understanding VPN Features As W-IAPs use a VC architecture, the W-IAP network does not require a physical controller to provide the configured WLAN services. However, a physical controller is required for terminating Virtual Private Networks (VPN) tunnels from the W-IAP networks at branch locations to datacenters, where the Dell controller acts as a VPN concentrator. When a VPN is configured, the W-IAP acting as the VC creates a VPN tunnel to a Dell Networking W-Series Mobility Controller in your corporate office. The controller acts as a VPN endpoint and does not supply the WIAP with any configuration. The VPN features are recommended for the following setups: l Enterprises with many branches that do not have a dedicated VPN connection to the corporate office. l Branch offices that require multiple W-IAPs. l Individuals working from home and, connecting to the VPN. The survivability feature of W-IAPs with the VPN connectivity of W-IAPs allows you to provide corporate connectivity on non-corporate networks.
