Configuring option 43 for automatic connection to SoftWLC (10 suboption)
It is necessary to configure suboption 10 (option 43) containing SoftWLC IP address on DHCP server for an access point to send an SNMP trap to SoftWLC when connected to the network. IP address is presented in hexadecimal format.
Example:
...
| панель |
|---|
31:39:32:2Е:31:36:38:2Е:33:31:2Е:31 – SoftWLC IP address encoded in ASCII (HEX), where: 31 - 1 39 - 9 32 - 2 2E - decimal point 31 - 1 36 - 6 38 - 8 2E - decimal point 33 - 3 31 - 1 2E - decimal point 31 - 1 |
Configuring option 43 for creating GRE tunnels between access points and ESR-1000 (suboptions 11 and 12)
To create GRE tunnels, configure suboption 11 containing ESR IP address for management-tunnel and suboption 12 containing ESR IP address for data-tunnel in option 43. IP address is presented in hexadecimal format.
Example:
Configuring option 43 for AP autoconfiguration (suboption 6)
To provide AP autoconfiguration, configure suboption 6 containing congifuration file path in hexadecimal format in option 43.
Example:
Configuring option 43 for identifying carrier network area the access point belongs to (suboption13)
To indicate that an access point belongs to a specific carrier network area, configure suboption 13 (in hexadecimal format) containing the name of the area in option 43.
Example:
Configuring the class for IP address allocation depending on Relay Agent IP address
To provide IP address allocation depending on Relay Agent IP address, configure the class containing DHCP relay IP address. For example, (binary-to-ascii(10,8, ".", packet(24,4)) = "120.10.10.10"). Since then, the class should be specified in DHCP address pool.
Configuring the class for IP address allocation depending on Vendor Class Identifier
To provide IP address allocation depending on Vendor Class Identifier, the class containing the code of option 60 (sent by an access point in request) should be configured. For example, (substring (optionvendor-class-identifier, 0, 14) = "ELTEX_WEP-12AC"). Since then, the class should be specified in DHCP address pool.
