See the BlueSecure Controller Setup and Administration Guide for detailed DHCP
server and DHCP relay agent configuration procedures.
In this deployment scenario, simply connect and power on the BSAPs. They will
automatically discover and communicate with their home BSC.
Deploying BSAPs with Layer-3 Connectivity to the BSC
You can also deploy BSAPs on a routed network with Layer-3 connectivity to the
BSC as shown in Figure 4.
In this deployment scenario, you must ensure that each BSAP is able to
communicate with the BSC across the routed network by verifying that:
• there are no NAT devices between the BSAPs and the BSC
• Protocol 97 and TCP/UDP Port 33333 traffic is allowed between the BSAPs
and the BSC
Each BSAP will receive its IP address from your existing network DHCP server.
