Configuring WLAN interfaces

Configuring a WLAN-radio interface

WLAN-Radio interfaces are physical interfaces and are used for providing wireless access service. They can be configured but cannot be removed manually.

 

Step

Command

Remarks

1.       Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.       Enter WLAN-radio interface view.

interface wlan-radio interface-number

N/A

3.       Set the description for the interface.

description text

Optional.

By default, the description of an interface is its interface name followed by the Interface string.

4.       Restore the default settings of the WLAN-radio interface.

default

Optional.

5.       Shut down the WLAN-radio interface.

shutdown

Optional.

By default, a WLAN-Radio interface is up.

 

Configuring a WLAN-BSS interface

WLAN-BSS interfaces are virtual Layer 2 interfaces. They operate like Layer 2 Ethernet ports. A WLAN-BSS interface supports multiple Layer 2 protocols. On a fat AP, a WLAN-Radio interface bound to a WLAN-BSS interface operates as a Layer 2 interface.

 

Step

Command

Remarks

1.       Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.       Enter WLAN-BSS interface view.

interface wlan-bss interface-number

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

3.       Set the description string for the interface.

description text

Optional.

By default, the description string of an interface is interface-name + Interface.

4.       Specify the link type.

port link-type { access | hybrid }

Optional.

The default is access.

You can add the WLAN-BSS interface to specific VLANs depending on the link type.

For more information, see Layer 2 Configuration Guide.

5.       Specify an authentication domain for MAC authentication users.

mac-authentication domain domain-name

By default, the default authentication domain is used for MAC authentication users.

6.       Set the maximum number of concurrent MAC authentication users on the interface.

mac-authentication max-user user-number

The default maximum number of concurrent MAC authentication users on a port is 128.

7.       Restore the default settings of the WLAN-BSS interface.

default

Optional.

8.       Shut down the WLAN-BSS interface.

shutdown

Optional.

By default, a WLAN-BSS interface is up.

 

For more information about the mac-authentication domain, and mac-authentication max-user commands, see Security Command Reference.

WLAN mesh interface

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.

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.

description

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

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.
