vSTA Side Bar
Number of Virtual Stations
: Type the number of virtual stations to create in this
scenario group. The maximum number of vSTAs for the IxWLAN SED chassis
is 64, and 128 for the IxWLAN SED-MR+ chassis. The default value is
5
. If you
specify zero virtual stations in this dialog, you must use the Add vSTA to Group
dialog to add one or more virtual stations to this group. The Add vSTA to Group
dialog uses the default parameters that you set in this group definition.
wport
: Select the number of the wport (1, 2, or 3). Subsequently, the group is cre-
ated on the chosen wport.
Starting IP Address
: If
Sequential
or
Random
is selected in the
Address Gener-
ation
field, type the starting IP address to use for virtual station IP address gener-
ation of newly-created virtual stations in this group. Successive virtual station IP
addresses are sequentially or randomly generated from this base address.
Netmask
: Shows the network mask to be used by virtual stations in this group. It
cannot be set here. It is global for all virtual stations and an IxWLAN configura-
tion parameter.
Ending IP Address
: If
Random
is selected in the
Address Generation
field, type
the ending IP address to be used by virtual stations in this group when generating
random addresses within a range.
Address Generation
: Select
Sequential
,
Random
, or
DHCP
from the drop-down
list box. The
Sequential
or
Random
selections instruct IxWLAN to sequentially
or randomly assign IP addresses to newly-created virtual stations. The
DHCP
mode allows virtual stations to have IP addresses dynamically acquired from a
DHCP server on the WLAN network rather than a fixed, configured IP address.
If
DHCP
is selected, IxWLAN initiates lease negotiation if association succeeds
for each individual virtual station.
Starting MAC Address
: Type the starting MAC address to be used for virtual sta-
tion MAC address generation of newly-created virtual stations in this group. Suc-
cessive virtual station MAC addresses are sequentially or randomly generated
from this base address. The starting MAC address must be within the range of
MAC addresses defined by the WLAN Base MAC Address and WLAN MAC
Mask in IxWLAN configuration (see
WLAN MAC Mask
: The WLAN MAC Mask is a display-only field. It is defined
in IxWLAN configuration (see
limits the range of MAC addresses that can be detected on the wireless LAN and
received by IxWLAN. For example, if the WLAN MAC is set to
00:0b:cd:59:23:44
and the mask is set to
ff:ff:ff:ff:00:00
, the only MAC
addresses that can be detected on the wireless LAN and received by IxWLAN are
00:0b:cd:59:00:00
-
00:0b:cd:59:ff:ff
. All other MAC addresses are filtered
out.
NOTE
: If you intend to configure all virtual stations for WPA or RSN
authentication, the maximum number of virtual stations is 59.
