Configuring WLANs
To configure access point groups, follow these top-level steps:
1.
Configure the appropriate dynamic interfaces and map them to the desired VLANs.
For example, to implement the network in
, create dynamic interfaces for VLANs 61,
62, and 63 on the controller. Refer to
for information on how to configure dynamic
interfaces.
2.
Create the access point groups. Refer to the
“Creating Access Point Groups”
section below.
3.
Assign access points to the appropriate access point groups. Refer to the
section below.
Creating Access Point Groups
After all access points have joined the controller, you can create up to 150 access point groups and assign
up to 16 WLANs to each group. Each access point advertises only the enabled WLANs that belong to
its access point group. The access point does not advertise disabled WLANs in its access point group or
WLANs that belong to another group.
Note
If you clear the configuration on the controller, all of the access point groups disappear except for the
default access point group “default-group,” which is created automatically.
Using the GUI to Create Access Point Groups
Using the controller GUI, follow these steps to create an access point group.

This page lists all the access point groups currently created on the controller. By default, all access points
belong to the default access point group “default-group,” unless you assign them to other access point
groups.
