Chapter 9: Common Configuration Examples

Configuring a SmartPath AP through the NetConfig UI

When you log in to the NetConfig UI, there are three pages that provide settings for an initial configuration:

LocalNetworkSettings:ConfiguretheSmartPathAPtobeaDHCPclientorusestaticnetworksettingsfortheIPaddressand

netmask of its mgt0 interface, its default gateway, and DNS server.

SmartPath EMS VMA Configuration: A SmartPath AP makes various attempts to contact a CAPWAP server automatically (see

"Automatically Discovering the CAPWAP Server"). To allow the CAPWAP discovery process to discover the SmartPath EMS

VMA—theCAPWAPserver—automatically,donotconfigurethesettingsonthispage.However,ifyouwanttodefinethe

SmartPath EMS VMA network settings for the SmartPath AP to use, you can do so here.

Upgrade SmartPath OS Software: You can update the SmartPath OS firmware by uploading a SmartPath OS image file directly

from your local computer or from a network server.

Local Network Settings

The Local Network Settings page is the initial page that appears when you log in to the NetConfig UI.

IfyouwanttheSmartPathAPtouseaconfigurationsuppliedbyaDHCPserver,click“LocalNetworkSettings,”select“DHCP

Client,” and then click “Apply.”

If you want to configure the network settings manually, click “Local Network Settings,” select “Static Network Settings,” enter

the following, and then click “Apply:”

Interface IP Address: Type the IP address that you the SmartPath AP to use for its mgt0 interface.

Netmask: Enter an appropriate netmask for the subnet to which the mgt0 interface connects.

Gateway: Enter the IP address of the router through which the SmartPath AP sends traffic beyond its immediate subnet.

DNS Server: Type the IP address of the primary DNS server.

SmartPath EMS VMA Configuration

Although a SmartPath AP automatically attempts to discover a physical SmartPath EMS VMA appliance, SmartPath EMS VMA

Virtual Appliance, or SmartPath EMS Online, you can also specify a particular SmartPath EMS VMA instance. To configure how the

SmartPath AP communicates with SmartPath EMS VMA, click “SmartPath EMS VMA Configuration,” enter the following, and

then click “Apply:”

SmartPathEMSVMAIPAddressorHostName:TypetheIPaddressoftheSmartPathEMSVMAinterface—MGTorLAN—to

which the SmartPath AP forms a CAPWAP connection, or type a domain name that resolves to that address. The SmartPath AP

acts as a CAPWAP client and SmartPath EMS VMA acts as a CAPWAP server for all SmartPath AP-SmartPath EMS VMA commu-

nications. The default CAPWAP server configured on a SmartPath AP is staging.blackbox.com, which the SmartPath AP uses if it

cannot discover a CAPWAP server on the local network.

Port: Type the port number you want the SmartPath AP to use to communicate with SmartPath EMS VMA. The default is UDP

Port12222,butiftheSmartPathAPcannotformaconnectiononthatport,ittriesonTCPPort80(HTTP).
