Staging a WX
Switch for
Configuration by
3WXM
The auto-config option must be enabled on a WX switch in order for the
switch to try to contact 3WXM Services for configuration. The
auto-config option is automatically enabled on an unconfigured WXR100
when the Fn switch is pressed during power on. However, auto-config is
disabled by default on other models.
If you want another WX switch model to be able to access 3WXM
Services for a configuration, you must preconfigure the WX with the
following information:
IP address
Default router address
Domain name and DNS server address
You can enable the switch to use the MSS DHCP client to obtain this
information from a DHCP server in the local network where the switch
will be deployed. Alternatively, you can statically configure the
information.
The IP address and DNS information are configured independently. You
can configure the combination of settings that work with the network
resources available at the deployment site. The following examples show
some of the combinations you can configure.
If DNS is available, an entry must be added to the DNS server that maps
the IP address of the host where 3WXM Services are installed to the
well-known hostname wlan-config-srv. Otherwise, an IP alias can be
configured on the switch itself to map the address to the hostname.
Example 1:
Deployment Site Has
DHCP and Local DNS
The deployment site in this example has a DHCP server. The switch is
configured to use the MSS DHCP client to obtain an IP address, default
router address, DNS domain name, and DNS server IP addresses.
1
Configure a VLAN:
W X1200#

success: change accepted.
2
Enable the DHCP client on VLAN 1:
W X1200#
