Configuring basic settings for an access controller module

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

The access controller modules in this document refer to the access controller modules inserted on the expansion slots on the switch. For the compatibility matrix of the access controller modules and the Ethernet switches, see Table 1.

Do not execute the shutdown command on the Ethernet interface that connects the switch and the access controller module.

For switches (for example, the S5800 Switch Series) supporting the Intelligent Resiliency Framework (IRF), if one of the IRF members has an access controller module installed, the access controller module can manage all fit APs connected to all the IRF members.

Configuring basic settings for an access controller module

Access controller module basic configuration

An access controller module installed in the expansion slot on the switch is connected to the switch through internal ports of the switch. To enable the H3C S7500/S7500E/S9500 switch to collaborate with the module, you need to configure the ports on the switch.

Before configuration, make sure your switch has been installed with the following:

·     SRPU

·     I/O module

·     Access controller module

Perform the following configuration on the switch:

·     Configure the two internal ports connecting the access controller module and permitted VLANs on the ports.

·     Aggregate the two internal ports of the switch.

Configuring the internal ports of the switch

Follow these guidelines when you configure the internal ports of the switch:

·     The numbers of the internal ports connecting the access controller module are related to the slot where the access controller module is seated. For example, in slot 2, the two internal ports are numbered GE 2/0/1 and GE 2/0/2.

·     The manual link aggregation approach must be adopted.

·     For the configuration commands of the switch, see the user manual of the switch.

To configure the internal ports of the switch:

 

Step

Command

Remarks

1.     Enter system view.

N/A

2.     Create VLANs and enter VLAN view.

vlan { vlan-id1 [ to vlan-id2 ] | all }

N/A

3.     Exit from VLAN view.

quit

N/A

4.     Create a manual aggregation group.

link-aggregation group agg-id mode manual

N/A

5.     Enter Ethernet port view.

interface interface-type interface-number

N/A

6.     Set the link type of the port to trunk.

port link-type trunk

N/A

7.     Set the default VLAN on the trunk port.

port trunk pvid vlan vlan-id

Optional.

The default VLAN of the trunk port is the system default VLAN.

8.     Add the port to the aggregation group.

port link-aggregation group agg-id

N/A

 

Configuring the access controller module

In order for the access controller module to collaborate with the switch, you need to do some configuration on the module. The access controller module is connected to the switch through the internal port (a GigabitEthernet or Ten-GigabitEthernet interface).

For more information about the vlan, port link-type trunk, port trunk permit vlan, port trunk permit vlan, and port trunk pvid vlan commands, see Layer 2 Command Reference.

To configure the access controller module:

 

Step

Remarks

1.     Enter system view.

2.     Create VLANs and enter VLAN view.

vlan { vlan-id1 [ to vlan-id2 ] | all }

N/A

3.     Exit from VLAN view.

quit

N/A

4.     Enter Ethernet interface view.

interface interface-type interface-number

N/A

5.     Set the link type of the port to trunk.

port link-type trunk

N/A

6.     Permit the specified VLANs to pass the trunk port.

port trunk permit vlan { vlan-id-list | all }

By default, the trunk port permits only VLAN 1 to pass.

7.     Set the default VLAN on the trunk port.

port trunk pvid vlan vlan-id

Optional.

By default, the default VLAN of a trunk port is VLAN 1.

 

Configuration examples

Configuring LSQM1WCMD0, LSRM1WCM3A1, LSUM3WCMD0, or LSUM1WCME0

Network requirements

Insert an access controller module in slot 4 of the switch. Packets on VLAN 1, and VLAN 8 through VLAN 10 are permitted to transfer between the switch and the module. By default, packets on VLAN 1 are permitted to transfer between the module and the switch.

This example was created on the access controller module LSQM1WCMB0, LSBM1WCM2A0, or LSRM1WCM2A1.

Configuration restrictions and guidelines

When you configure LSQM1WCMD0, LSRM1WCM3A1, LSUM3WCMD0, or LSUM1WCME0, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

·     For LSRM1WCM3A1 and LSUM3WCMD0, you can create VLANs on the Ten-GigabitEthernet interface connecting the switch and the access controller module, and then configure the port of the switch.

·     For LSQM1WCMD0, LSRM1WCM3A1, and LSUM3WCMD0, aggregate the two Ten-GigabitEthernet interfaces connecting the switch and the access controller module, create VLANs on the aggregate interface, and then configure the port of the switch. By default, the two Ten-GigabitEthernet interfaces are aggregated.

·     For LSUM1WCME0, aggregate the four Ten-GigabitEthernet interfaces connecting the switch and the access controller module, create VLANs on the aggregate interface, and then configure the port of the switch. By default, the four Ten-GigabitEthernet interfaces are aggregated.

Configuration procedure

1.     Configure the switch:

<Switch>system-view

# Create VLAN 8 through VLAN 10.

[Switch]vlan 8 to 10

# Configure the port of the switch.

[Switch]interface Ten-gigabitethernet4/0/1

[Switch-Ten-GigabitEthernet4/0/1]port link-type trunk

[Switch-Ten-GigabitEthernet4/0/1]port trunk permit vlan 8 to 10

2.     Configure the access controller module:

<Switch>oap connect slot4

<AC>system-view

# Create VLAN 8 through VLAN 10.

[AC]vlan 8 to 10

# Configure the port of the access controller module.

[AC]interface Ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/1

[AC-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1]port link-type trunk

[AC-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1]port trunk permit vlan 8 to 10
