Configuring WLAN interfaces

WLAN-ESS interface

WLAN-ESS interfaces are virtual Layer 2 interfaces. They operate like Layer 2 Ethernet ports of the access link type. They also support multiple Layer 2 protocols. A WLAN-ESS interface can also be used as a template for configuring WLAN-DBSS interfaces. WLAN-DBSS interfaces created on a WLAN-ESS interface adopt the configuration of the WLAN-ESS interface.

Entering WLAN-ESS interface view

Step

Command

Remarks

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.     Enter WLAN-ESS interface view.

interface wlan-ess interface-number

If the WLAN-ESS interface does not exist, this command creates the WLAN-ESS interface first.

3.     Restore the default settings of the WLAN-ESS interface.

default

Optional.

 

Configuring a WLAN-ESS interface

You can configure the description of a WLAN-ESS interface and assign the interface to a common VLAN or multicast VLAN. This section only lists features supported on WLAN-ESS interfaces.

Before executing the port access vlan command, make sure the VLAN specified by the vlanid argument already exists. You can use the vlan command to create a VLAN. For more information about the port access vlan command, see Layer 2 Command Reference.

Some configurations made on a WLAN-ESS interface with WLAN-DBSS interfaces created on it cannot be modified, and the WLAN-ESS interface cannot be removed either.

To configure a WLAN-ESS interface:

 

Step

Command

1.     Configure the description of the interface.

description

2.     Configure the VLAN.

·     port access vlan

·     port hybrid vlan

·     port hybrid pvid vlan

·     port link-type

·     port multicast-vlan

3.     Configure multicast.

·     Configure multicast VLAN:
port multicast-vlan

·     Configure IPv6 multicast VLAN:
port multicast-vlan ipv6

4.     Configure a MAC authentication guest VLAN.

WLAN-DBSS interface

WLAN-DBSS interfaces are virtual Layer 2 interfaces. They operate like Layer 2 Ethernet ports of the access link type. A WLAN-DBSS interface created on a WLAN-ESS interface adopts the configuration of the WLAN-ESS interface. On an access controller, the WLAN module dynamically creates a WLAN-DBSS interface for each wireless access service and removes the interface after the service expires.

WLAN mesh interface

Support for this feature depends on the device model. For more information, see About the H3C Access Controllers Configuration Guides.

WLAN mesh interfaces are Layer 2 virtual interfaces. You can use them as configuration templates to make and save settings for WLAN mesh link interfaces. After a WLAN mesh link interface is created, you cannot change the settings on its associated WLAN mesh interface.

Entering WLAN mesh interface view

Step

Command

Remarks

1.     Enter system view.

N/A

2.     Enter WLAN mesh interface view.

interface wlan-mesh interface-number

If the specified WLAN mesh interface does not exist, this command creates the WLAN mesh interface first.

3.     Restore the default settings of the WLAN mesh interface.

default

Optional.

 

Configuring a WLAN mesh interface

Step

Command

1.     Configure the description of the WLAN mesh interface.

2.     Configure VLAN settings.

·     port link-type

·     port access

·     port trunk

·     port hybrid

·     port multicast-vlan

3.     Configure port security settings.

·     port-security max-mac-count

·     port-security port-mode

·     port-security preshared-key

·     port-security tx-key-type 11key

 

WLAN mesh link interface

Support for this feature depends on the device model. For more information, see About the H3C Access Controllers Configuration Guides.

WLAN mesh link interfaces are similar to Layer 2 virtual Ethernet interfaces and have the features of Layer 2 interfaces. They are dynamically created or deleted by the WLAN module and are responsible for local data forwarding on the mesh network.

WLAN mesh link interfaces use the settings you made on their corresponding WLAN mesh interfaces and are not configurable.
