Configuring the Network
» To access the Network Setup pages, click the Network icon in the Navigation Toolbar, then select the
Network Setup tab.
Network Setup is divided into four sections:
Basic Setup—settings that allow the 700wl Series system component to communicate with the network
Advanced Setup—settings that configure client communication to and from the network
For an Access Control Server you can configure settings for:
DHCP Network for NAT Clients—lets you configure the IP address range and DHCP lease time
for the internal DHCP server used to provide private IP addresses for clients that should receive
NAT’ed addresses.
MAC Address Spoofing Detection—lets you configure the 700wl Series system to detect when the
same MAC address appears on multiple Access Controller ports a specified number of times within
a defined time period.
For an Access Controller you can configure settings for:
Bridging— lets you enable or disable Ethernet bridging and specify the type of traffic that should
be bridged
Client Polling—lets you set the interval for polling an idle client, and the time-out after which an
idle client will be disassociated from the Access Controller.
IP Broadcast Forwarding—lets you specify ports to which broadcast traffic should be forwarded
SSL Setup (Integrated Access Managers and Access Control Servers)—lets you create a certificate
signing request and load a signed certificate you receive from a Certificate Authority (CA)
HTTP Proxy (Integrated Access Managers and Access Controllers)— lets you configure a proxy server
for HTTP requests
The Basic Setup and Advanced Setup tabs appear for both Access Control Servers and Access Controllers.
The SSL tab appears only for an Access Control Server or Integrated Access Manager. The HTTP Proxy
tab appears only for the Access Controller or Integrated Access Manager.
The
Save and Cancel buttons operate across all sub-tabs under the Network Setup page:
Save saves all changes from all sub-tabs. You can move between sub-tabs and the changes you make
on each page are preserved until you save or cancel.
Cancel discards all changes you have made on any of the sub-tabs since the last Save.
The
Reset to Defaults button resets the fields on the current sub-tab to their default values. These changes
are not immediately saved, however. You must click
Save to save them.
The Basic Setup tab is the initial page that appears. Figure 6-8 shows the Basic Setup tab of the Network
Setup page, for an Integrated Access Manager. The Integrated Access Manager is used as an example in
this section because it includes all the configuration options for both the Access Control Server and the
Access Controller.
The network settings for each component are specific to that component; different Access Controllers can
have different settings.
A concise version of the System Components List appears at the left of the page. You can open or close its
folders to streamline the display of components. You use the System Components List to select the
component you wish to configure.
