Example: Binding service templates with different SSIDs to radios

Introduction

The following information provides an example for binding a service template to a radio.

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 1, the AC connects to Layer 2 switch 1 and the Layer 3 switch acts as a DHCP server to assign IP addresses to the AP, the host, and the clients. Radio 1 and radio 2 of the AP operates at 5GHz band and 2.4 GHz band, respectively.

Configure network settings to meet the following requirements:

·     Client 1 accesses WLAN service1 over VLAN 201.

·     Client 2 accesses WLAN service2 over VLAN 202.

·     The host accesses the network over VLAN 300.

·     The AC and the AP communicate with each other over VLAN 100.

·     Layer 2 switch 1 supplies power to the AP through PoE.

Figure 1 Network diagram

 

Analysis

·     For the Layer 3 switch to act as a DHCP server, enable the DHCP server feature on the switch.

·     For Layer 2 switch 1 to supply power to the AP, enable the PoE feature on the switch.

·     For the clients to ping the host through different WLANs, configure service templates with different SSIDs on the AC.

Restrictions and guidelines

When you configure a serial ID for the AP, use the actual serial ID of an AP to uniquely identify that AP.

Procedures

Configuring the Layer 3 switch

1.     Configure Layer 3 switch interfaces:

# Create VLAN 100 and VLAN-interface 100, and assign IP address 192.168.10.1 to the interface. The switch communicates with the AC over VLAN 100.

<L3 switch> system-view

[L3 switch] vlan 100

[L3 switch-vlan100] quit

[L3 switch] interface vlan-interface 100

[L3 switch-Vlan-interface100] ip address 192.168.10.1 255.255.255.0

[L3 switch-Vlan-interface100] quit

# Create VLAN 201 and VLAN-interface 201, and assign IP address 192.168.21.1 to the interface. Client 1 will use this VLAN to access the WLAN.

[L3 switch] vlan 201

[L3 switch-vlan201] quit

[L3 switch] interface vlan-interface 201

[L3 switch-Vlan-interface201] ip address 192.168.21.1 255.255.255.0

[L3 switch-Vlan-interface201] quit

# Create VLAN 202 and VLAN-interface 202, and assign IP address 192.168.22.1 to the interface. Client 2 will use this VLAN to access the WLAN.

[L3 switch] vlan 202

[L3 switch-vlan202] quit

[L3 switch] interface vlan-interface 300

[L3 switch-Vlan-interface300] ip address 192.168.30.1 255.255.255.0

[L3 switch-Vlan-interface300] quit

# Set the link type of GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 that connects the switch to Layer 2 switch 1 to trunk. Remove the port from VLAN 1 and assign the port to VLANs 100, 201, and 202.

[L3 switch-GigabitEthernet1/0/3] undo port trunk permit vlan 1

[L3 switch-GigabitEthernet1/0/3] port trunk permit vlan 300

[L3 switch-GigabitEthernet1/0/3] quit

2.     Configure the DHCP server feature:

# Enable DHCP server.

[L3 switch] dhcp enable

# Create DHCP address pool 1 for dynamic IP allocation to the AP. Specify 192.168.10.0/24 as the subnet and 192.168.10.1 as the gateway address in the address pool.

[L3 switch] dhcp server ip-pool 1

# Create DHCP address pool 2 for dynamic IP allocation to Client 1. Specify 192.168.21.0/24 as the subnet and 192.168.21.1 as the gateway address in the address pool, and then specify the address of the DNS server. In this example, the gateway also acts as the DNS server.

[L3 switch] dhcp server ip-pool 2

[L3 switch-dhcp-pool-2] network 192.168.21.0 mask 255.255.255.0

[L3 switch-dhcp-pool-2] gateway-list 192.168.21.1

[L3 switch-dhcp-pool-4] dns-list 192.168.30.1

[L3 switch-dhcp-pool-4] quit

Configuring the AC

1.     Configure AC interfaces:

# Create VLAN 100 and VLAN-interface 100, and assign IP address 192.168.10.2 to the interface. The AC will establish a CAPWAP tunnel with the AP in this VLAN.

<AC> system-view

[AC] vlan 100

# Create VLAN 201. Client 1 will use this VLAN to access the WLAN.

[AC] vlan 201

[AC-vlan201] quit

# Create VLAN 202. Client 2 will use this VLAN to access the WLAN.

[AC] vlan 202

[AC-vlan202] quit

# Set the link type of GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 that connects the AC to Layer 2 switch 1 to trunk. Remove the port from VLAN 1 and assign the port to VLANs 100, 201, and 202.

[AC] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1

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

[AC-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] undo port trunk permit vlan 1

[AC-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] port trunk permit vlan 100 201 202

[AC-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] quit

2.     Configure wireless services:

# Create service template 1 and enter its view.

[AC] wlan service-template 1

# Set the SSID to service1.

[AC-wlan-st-1] ssid service1

# Specify the AKM mode as PSK, and specify plaintext string 12345678 as the preshared key.

[AC-wlan-st-1] akm mode psk

[AC-wlan-st-2] quit

3.     Configure AP settings:

 

NOTE: In large-scale networks, configure AP groups instead of single APs as a best practice.

 

# Create AP officeap, and specify the AP model and serial ID.
