Configuring W-IAP and Controller for IAP-VPN Operations
This section describes the configuration procedures to perform on the W-IAP and controller for generic use
cases. For information on specific deployment scenarios, see IAP-VPN Deployment Scenarios on page 380.
Configuring a W-IAP network for IAP-VPN operations
This section describes the configuration procedures to perform on the W-IAP for generic use cases. For
information on specific deployment scenarios, see IAP-VPN Deployment Scenarios on page 380.
A W-IAP network requires the following configuration for IAP-VPN operations.
1. Defining the VPN host settings
2. Configuring Routing Profiles
3. Configuring DHCP Profiles
4. Configuring an SSID or Wired Port
