NOTE Check for the latest versions of documentation on the Extreme Networks documentation website at: http://www.extremenetworks.com/go/documentation. For the purposes of this guide, the devices will be called the generic term “access point” when identical configuration activities are applied to both models.
● ● Bullets (•) indicate: ● action items ● lists of alternatives ● lists of required steps that are not necessarily sequential Sequential lists (those describing step-by-step procedures) appear as numbered lists.
1 Introduction CHAPTER This Altitude 35xx Access Point Product Reference Guide contains setup and advanced configuration instructions for both the Altitude 3510 and Altitude 3550 model access points. Both the Altitude 3510 and Altitude 3550 model access points share the same Web UI, CLI and MIB interfaces. There are no differences in how the devices are configured using the instructions within this guide, even though the Web UI displays Altitude 3510 or Altitude 3550 specifically.
Introduction ● WIPS Support on page 14 ● Trusted Host Management on page 15 ● Apache Certificate Management on page 15 ● Adaptive AP on page 15 ● Rogue AP Detection Enhancement on page 16 ● RADIUS Time-Based Authentication on page 16 ● QBSS Support on page 16 ● LLDP Support on page 16 IP Filtering IP filtering determines which IP packets are processed normally and which are discarded. If discarded, the packet is deleted and completely ignored (as if never received).
NOTE WIPS support requires a Motorola AirDefense WIPS Server on the network. WIPS functionality is not provided by the access point alone. The access point works in conjunction with a dedicated WIPS server. For use in configuring the access point for WIPS support, see “Configuring WIPS Server Settings” on page 161.
Introduction Rogue AP Detection Enhancement The access point now has the option to scan for rogues over all channels on both of the access point’s 11a and 11bg radio bands. The switching of radio bands is based on a timer with no user intervention required. For information on configuring the access point for Rogue AP support, see “Configuring Rogue AP Detection” on page 210.
Feature Overview The access point has the following features: ● Single or Dual Mode Radio Options on page 17 ● Separate LAN and WAN Ports on page 18 ● Multiple Mounting Options on page 18 ● Antenna Support for 2.
Introduction Separate LAN and WAN Ports The access point has one LAN port and one WAN port, each with their own MAC address. The access point must manage all data traffic over the LAN connection carefully as either a DHCP client, BOOTP client, DHCP server or using a static IP address. The access point can only use a Power-over-Ethernet device when connected to the LAN port. For detailed information on configuring the Altitude 35xx LAN port, see “Configuring the LAN Interface” on page 113.
To enable and configure WLANs on an access point radio, see “Enabling Wireless LANs (WLANs)” on page 133. Support for 4 BSSIDs per Radio The access point supports four BSSIDs per radio. Each BSSID has a corresponding MAC address. The first MAC address corresponds to BSSID #1. The MAC addresses for the other three BSSIDs (BSSIDs #2, #3, #4) are derived by adding 1, 2, 3, respectively, to the radio MAC address.
Introduction ● EAP Authentication on page 20 The following encryption techniques are supported: ● WEP Encryption on page 21 ● KeyGuard Encryption on page 21 ● Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) Using TKIP Encryption on page 21 ● WPA2-CCMP (802.
An MU is not able to access the network if not authenticated. When configured for EAP support, the access point displays the MU as an EAP station. EAP is only supported on mobile devices running Windows XP, Windows 2000 (using Service Pack #4) and Windows Mobile 2003. Refer to the system administrator for information on configuring a RADIUS Server for EAP (802.1x) support. For detailed information on EAP configurations, see “Configuring 802.1x EAP Authentication” on page 176.
Introduction WPA addresses the weaknesses of WEP by including: ● a per-packet key mixing function ● a message integrity check ● an extended initialization vector with sequencing rules ● a re-keying mechanism WPA uses an encryption method called Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP). WPA employs 802.1X and Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). For detailed information on WPA using TKIP configurations, see “Configuring WPA/WPA2 Using TKIP” on page 183. WPA2-CCMP (802.
Content Filtering Content filtering allows system administrators to block specific commands and URL extensions from going out through the Altitude 35xx WAN port. Therefore, content filtering affords system administrators selective control on the content proliferating the network and is a powerful screening tool. Content filtering allows the blocking of up to 10 files or URL extensions and allows blocking of specific outbound HTTP, SMTP, and FTP requests.
Introduction Programmable SNMP v1/v2/v3 Trap Support Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) facilitates the exchange of management information between network devices. SNMP uses Management Information Bases (MIBs) to manage the device configuration and monitor Internet devices in remote locations. MIB information accessed via SNMP is defined by a set of managed objects called Object Identifiers (OIDs). An object identifier (OID) is used to uniquely identify each object variable of a MIB.
priority to voice traffic over data traffic, and (if necessary) assign legacy voice supported devices (non WMM supported voice devices) additional priority. For detailed information on configuring voice prioritization over other voice enabled devices, see “Setting the WLAN Quality of Service (QoS) Policy” on page 142. Support for CAM and PSP MUs The access point supports both CAM and PSP powered MUs.
Introduction For detailed information on access point events, see “Logging Configuration” on page 102. Configuration File Import/Export Functionality Configuration settings for an access point can be downloaded from the current configuration of another access point. This affords the administrator the opportunity to save the current configuration before making significant changes or restoring the default configuration.
Mesh Networking Utilize the new mesh networking functionality to allow the access point to function as a bridge to connect two Ethernet networks or as a repeater to extend your network’s coverage area without additional cabling. Mesh networking is configurable in two modes. It can be set in a wireless client bridge mode and/or a wireless base bridge mode (which accepts connections from client bridges). These two modes are not mutually exclusive.
Introduction For detailed information on configuring the access point for additional LAN subnet support, see “Configuring the LAN Interface” on page 113. On-board RADIUS Server Authentication The access point has the ability to work as a RADIUS Server to provide user database information and user authentication. Several new screens have been added to the access point’s menu tree to configure RADIUS server authentication and configure the local user database and access policies.
For detailed information on manually setting the access point’s system time, see “Configuring Network Time Protocol (NTP)” on page 98. Dynamic DNS The access point supports the Dynamic DNS service. Dynamic DNS (or DynDNS) is a feature offered by www.dyndns.com which allows the mapping of domain names to dynamically assigned IP addresses.
Introduction ● Direct-Sequence Spread Spectrum on page 31 ● MU Association Process on page 31 ● Operating Modes on page 32 ● Management Access Options on page 33 ● Altitude 35xx MAC Address Assignment on page 33 Wireless Coverage An access point establishes an average communication range with MUs called a Basic Service Set (BSS) or cell. When in a particular cell, the MU associates and communicates with the access point supporting the radio coverage area of that cell.
packet to the correct destination. Transmitted ARP request packets echo back to other MUs. The access point removes from its database the destination or interface information that is not used for a specified time. The AP refreshes its database when it transmits or receives data from these destinations and interfaces. Media Types The access point radio interface conforms to IEEE 802.11a/b/g specifications. The interface operates at a maximum 54Mbps (802.11a radio) using direct-sequence radio technology.
Introduction ● MUs encryption and authentication capabilities ● MUs supported data rate MUs perform pre-emptive roaming by intermittently scanning for access points and associating with the best available access point. Before roaming and associating, MUs perform full or partial scans to collect Altitude 35xx statistics and determine the direct-sequence channel used by the access point. Scanning is a periodic process where the MU sends out probe messages on all channels defined by the country code.
● PPPoE—The WAN interface can terminate a PPPoE connection, thus enabling the access point to operate in conjunction with a DSL or Cable modem to provide WAN connectivity. ● NAT—(Network Address Translation) on the Wireless interface. Using NAT, the router is able to manage a private IP scheme. NAT allows translation of private addresses to the WAN IP address. ● DHCP—On the wireless and LAN side, the access point can assign private IP addresses.

3 Getting Started CHAPTER The access point should be installed in an area tested for radio coverage using one of the site survey tools available to the field service technician. Once an installation site has been identified, the installer should carefully follow the hardware precautions, requirements, mounting guidelines and power options outlined in “Hardware Installation” on page 35.
Getting Started For information on the 802.11a and 802.11b/g radio antenna suite available to the Altitude 3550, see “Antenna Options” on page 38. To verify Altitude 3510 LED behavior once installed, see “Altitude 3510 LED Indicators” on page 48. To verify the behavior of the Altitude 3550 LEDs once installed, see “Altitude 3550 LED Indicators” on page 54. Configuration Options Once installed and powered, an Altitude 3510 or Altitude 3550 can be configured using one of several connection techniques.
Connecting to the Access Point using the LAN Port To initially connect to the access point using the access point’s LAN port: 1 The LAN port default is set to DHCP. Connect the access point’s LAN port to a DHCP server. The access point will receive its IP address automatically. 2 To view the IP address, connect one end of a null modem serial cable to the access point and the other end to the serial port of a computer running HyperTerminal or similar emulation program.
Getting Started NOTE For optimum compatibility, use Sun Microsystems’ JRE 1.5 or higher (available from Sun’s website), and be sure to disable Microsoft’s Java Virtual Machine if installed. 2 If the default login is successful, the Change Admin Password window displays. Change the password. Enter the current password and a new admin password in fields provided. Click Apply. Once the admin password has been updated, a warning message displays stating the access point must be set to a country.
NOTE Though the access point can have its basic settings defined using a number of different screens, Extreme Networks recommends using the access point Quick Setup screen to set the correct country of operation and define its minimum required configuration from one convenient location. Configuring Device Settings Configure a set of minimum required device settings within the Quick Setup screen.
Getting Started the correct country is central to legally operating the access point. Each country has its own regulatory restrictions concerning electromagnetic emissions and the maximum RF signal strength that can be transmitted. To ensure compliance with national and local laws, be sure to set the country accurately. CLI and MIB users cannot configure their access point until a two character country code (for example, United Kingdom - gb) is set.
d Specify a Subnet Mask for the access point’s WAN connection. This number is available from the ISP for a DSL or cable-modem connection, or from an administrator if the access point connects to a larger network. A subnet mask uses a series of four numbers expressed in dot notation. For example, 255.255.255.0 is a valid subnet mask. e Define a Default Gateway address for the access point’s WAN connection. The ISP or a network administrator provides this address.
Getting Started d The Subnet Mask defines the size of the subnet. The first two sets of numbers specify the network domain, the next set specifies the subset of hosts within a larger network. These values help divide a network into subnetworks and simplify routing and data transmission. e If using the static or DHCP Server option, enter a Default Gateway to define the numerical IP address of a router the access point uses on the Ethernet as its default gateway.
Configuring WLAN Security Settings To configure a basic security policy for a WLAN: 1 From the access point Quick Setup screen, click the Create button to the right of the Security Policy item. The New Security Policy screen displays with the Manually Pre-shared key/No authentication and No Encryption options selected. Naming and saving such a policy (as is) would provide no security and might only make sense in a guest network wherein no sensitive data is either transmitted or received.
Getting Started 4 Configure the WEP 128 Settings field as required to define the Pass Key used to generate the WEP keys. Pass Key Specify a 4 to 32 character pass key and click the Generate button. The access point will convert an ASCII string to a hexadecimal number as the WEP key. The same WEP key should be entered to all WLAN client devices associating to the access point. Keys #1-4 Use the Key #1-4 fields to specify key numbers.
Where to Go from Here? Once basic connectivity has been verified, the access point can be fully configured to meet the needs of the network and the users it supports. Refer to the following: ● For detailed information on access point device access, SNMP settings, network time, importing/ exporting device configurations and device firmware updates, see “System Configuration” on page 67.

Read-only access allows a remote device to retrieve access point information, while read/write access allows a remote device to modify access point settings. 3 Configure the SNMP v3 User Definitions field (if SNMP v3 is used) to add and configure SNMP v3 user definitions. SNMP v3 user definitions allow read-only or read/write access to management information as appropriate.
System Configuration 4 Specify the users who can read and optionally modify the SNMP-capable client. SNMP Access Control Click the SNMP Access Control button to display the SNMP Access Control screen for specifying which users can read SNMP-generated information and potentially modify related settings from an SNMP-capable client. The SNMP Access Control screen's Access Control List (ACL) uses Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to restrict access to the AP’s SNMP interface.
To configure SNMP user access control for the AP35xx: 1 Select System Configuration > SNMP Access from the AP35xx menu tree. Click on the SNMP Access Control button from within the SNMP Access screen. 2 Configure the SNMP Access Control screen to add the IP addresses of those users receiving SNMP access. Access Control List Enter Start IP and End IP addresses (numerical addresses only, no DNS names supported) to specify a range of user that can access the AP35xx SNMP interface.
System Configuration Enabling SNMP Traps SNMP provides the ability to send traps to notify the administrator that trap conditions are met. Traps are network packets containing data relating to network devices, or SNMP agents, that send the traps. SNMP management applications can receive and interpret these packets, and optionally can perform responsive actions. SNMP trap generation is programmable on a trap-by-trap basis.
Port Specify a destination User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port for receiving traps. The default is 162. Community Enter a community name specific to the SNMP-capable client that receives the traps. SNMP Version Use the SNMP Version drop-down menu to specify v1 or v2. Some SNMP clients support only SNMP v1 traps, while others support SNMP v2 traps and possibly both, verify the correct traps are in use with clients that support them.
System Configuration Configuring Specific SNMP Traps Use the SNMP Traps screen to enable specific traps on the AP35xx. Extreme Networks recommends defining traps to capture unauthorized devices operating within the AP35xx coverage area. Trap configuration depends on the network machine that receives the generated traps. SNMP v1/v2c and v3 trap configurations function independently. In a mixed SNMP environment, traps can be sent using configurations for both SNMP v1/v2c and v3.
3 Configure the SNMP Traps field to generate traps when SNMP capable MUs are denied authentication privileges or are subject of an ACL violation. When a trap is enabled, a trap is sent every 5 seconds until the condition no longer exists. SNMP authentication failures Generates a trap when an SNMP-capable client is denied access to the AP35xx’s SNMP management functions or data. This can result from an incorrect login, or missing/ incorrect user credentials.
System Configuration Enable All Select this button to enable each trap defined within the SNMP Traps screen. Once the changes are applied, each event listed will generate a trap upon its occurrence. Disable All Select this button to disable each trap defined within the SNMP Traps screen. Once the changes are applied, none of the events listed will generate a trap upon their occurrence. 7 Click Apply to save any changes to the SNMP Traps screen.

5 Network Management CHAPTER Refer to the following for network management configuration activities supported by the access point user interface: ● Configuring the LAN Interface on page 113 ● Configuring WAN Settings on page 125 ● Enabling Wireless LANs (WLANs) on page 133 ● Configuring WIPS Server Settings on page 161 ● Configuring Router Settings on page 163 ● Configuring IP Filtering on page 166 Configuring the LAN Interface The Altitude 35xx has one physical LAN port supporting two unique
Network Management To configure the Altitude 35xx LAN interface: 1 Select Network Configuration > LAN from the Altitude 35xx menu tree. CAUTION If deploying the access point as an AAP with a remote layer 3 configuration and the AAP is set for Controller auto discovery (primary/standby), the access point will unadopt from its switch after a few moments. To remedy this problem, ensure LAN1 has 802.1q trunking enabled and the correct management VLAN defined.
Ethernet Port The Ethernet Port radio buttons allow you to select one of the two available LANs as the LAN actively transmitting over the access point’s LAN port. Both LANs can be active at any given time, but only one can transmit over the access point’s physical LAN connection, thus the selected LAN has priority. Enable 802.1q Trunking Select the Enable 802.1q Trunking checkbox to enable the LAN to conduct VLAN tagging.
Network Management half duplex Select this option to transmit data to and from the access point, but not at the same time. Using a half duplex transmission, the access point can send data over its LAN port then immediately receive data from the same direction in which the data was transmitted. Like a full-duplex transmission, a half-duplex transmission can carry data in both directions, just not at the same time.
copy of the Dynamic VLAN database. This database houses the records of MAC addresses and VLAN assignments. The VLAN database looks up the MAC to determine what VLAN is assigned to it. If it is not in the database, it simply uses a default VLAN assignment. The VLAN assignment is sent to the Altitude 35xx. The Altitude 35xx then maps the target WLAN for the assigned VLAN and traffic passes normally, allowing for the completion of the DHCP request and further traffic.
Network Management 4 Assign a unique VLAN ID (from 1 to 4095) to each VLAN added or modified. The VLAN ID associates a frame with a specific VLAN and provides the information the Altitude 35xx needs to process the frame across the network. Therefore, it may be practical to assign a name to a VLAN representative or the area or type of network traffic it represents. A business may have offices in different locations and want to extend an internal LAN between the locations.
8 Enter a Management VLAN Tag for LAN1 and LAN2. The Management VLAN uses a default tag value of 1. The Management VLAN is used to distinguish VLAN traffic flows for the LAN. The trunk port marks the frames with special tags as they pass between the Altitude 35xx and its destination, these tags help distinguish data traffic. Authentication servers (such as RADIUS and Kerberos) must be on the same Management VLAN. Additionally, DHCP and BOOTP servers must be on the same Management VLAN as well.
Network Management To configure unique settings for either LAN1 or LAN2: 1 Select Network Configuration > LAN > LAN1 (or LAN2) from the Altitude 35xx menu tree. 2 Configure the DHCP Configuration field to define the DHCP settings used for the LAN.

8 CLI Reference CHAPTER The AP35xx Command Line Interface (CLI) is accessed through the serial port or a Telnet session. The AP35xx CLI follows the same conventions as the Web-based user interface. The CLI does, however, provide an “escape sequence” to provide diagnostics for problem identification and resolution. The CLI treats the following as invalid characters: -> space < > | " & , \ ? In order to avoid problems when using the CLI, these characters should be avoided.
CLI Reference Accessing the CLI via Telnet To connect to the AP35xx CLI through a Telnet connection: 1 If this is your first time connecting to your access point, keep in mind the access point uses a static IP WAN address (10.1.1.1). Additionally, the access point’s LAN port is set as a DHCP client. 2 Enter the default username of admin and the default password of admin123.

9 Configuring Mesh Networking CHAPTER Mesh Networking Overview An Altitude 35xx can be configured in two modes to support the new mesh networking functionality. The access point can be set to a client bridge mode and/or a base bridge mode (which accepts connections from client bridges). Base bridge and client bridge mode can be used at the same time by an individual access point to optimally bridge traffic to other members of the mesh network and service associated MUs.
Configuring Mesh Networking A mesh network must use one of the two access point LANs. If intending to use the access point for mesh networking support, Extreme Networks recommends configuring at least one WLAN (of the 16 WLANs available) specifically for mesh networking support. The client bridge creates up to three connections if it can find base bridges for connection. If the connections are redundant (on the same network), then one connection will be forwarding and the others blocked.
CAUTION An access point is Base Bridge mode logs out whenever a Client Bridge associates to the Base Bridge over the LAN connection. This problem is not experienced over the access point’s WAN connection. If this situation is experienced, log-in to the access point again. The access point in client bridge mode attempts to establish up to 3 simultaneous wireless connections. The second and third connections are established in the background while the system is running.
Configuring Mesh Networking The access point can manipulate the path cost assigned to a bridge connection based on that connection’s RSSI. This results in the spanning tree selecting the optimal path for forwarding data when redundant paths exist. However, this can be overridden using the preferred list. When using the preferred list, the user enters a priority for each bridge, resulting in the selection of the forwarding link.
Configuring Mesh Networking Support Configuring the access point for Mesh Bridging support entails: ● Setting the LAN Configuration for Mesh Networking Support on page 519 ● Configuring a WLAN for Mesh Networking Support on page 521 ● Configuring the Access Point Radio for Mesh Support on page 524.
Configuring Mesh Networking 6 Define the properties for the following parameters within the mesh network: Priority Set the Priority as low as possible to force other devices within the mesh network to defer to this client bridge as the bridge defining the mesh configuration (commonly referred to as the root). Extreme Networks recommends assigning a Base Bridge AP with the lowest bridge priority so it becomes the root in the STP.
8 Click Cancel to discard the changes made to the Mesh STP Configuration and return to the LAN1 or LAN2 screen. Once the Mesh STP Configuration is defined, the access point’s radio can be configured for base and/or client bridge support. Configuring a WLAN for Mesh Networking Support Each access point comprising a particular mesh network is required to be a member of the same WLAN.
Configuring Mesh Networking 3 Assign an ESSID and Name to the WLAN that each access point will share when using this WLAN within their mesh network. Extreme Networks recommends assigning a unique name to a WLAN supporting a mesh network to differentiate it from WLANs defined for non mesh support. The name assigned to the WLAN is what is selected from the Radio Configuration screen for use within the mesh network.
defined for client bridge support only, the Available On checkbox should not be selected. Instead, it only needs to have the Enable Client Bridge Backhaul option selected. 5 Use the Maximum MUs field to define the number of MUs allowed to associate with this WLAN. This number should be defined based on the number of client bridge and repeaters within this mesh network. This value can be increased as the mesh network grows and devices are added.
Configuring Mesh Networking 11 Select the Accept Broadcast ESSID checkbox to associate an MU that has a blank ESSID (regardless of which ESSID the access point is currently using). Traffic within a mesh network probably consists of known devices, so you may want to leave the checkbox unselected and configure each MU with an ESSID. The default is selected.
1 Select Network Configuration > Wireless > Radio Configuration from the Altitude 35xx menu tree. 2 Enable the radio(s) using the Enable checkbox(es) for both Radio 1 and Radio 2. Refer to RF Band of Operation parameter to ensure you are enabling the correct 802.11a or 802.11b/g radio. After the settings are applied within this Radio Configuration screen, the Radio Status and MUs connected values update. If this is an existing radio within a mesh network, these values update in real-time.
Configuring Mesh Networking 4 If the Base Bridge checkbox has been selected, use the Max# Client Bridges parameter to define the client bridge load on a particular base bridge. The maximum number of client bridge connections per access point radio is 12, with 24 representing the maximum for dual-radio models. CAUTION An access point in Base Bridge mode logs out whenever a Client Bridge associates to the Base Bridge over the LAN connection.
7 Select the Automatic Link Selection checkbox to allow the access point to select the links used by the client bridge to populate the mesh network. Selecting this checkbox prohibits the user from selecting the order base bridges are added to the mesh network when one of the three associated base bridges becomes unavailable.
Configuring Mesh Networking NOTE Auto link selection is based on the RSSI and load. The client bridge will select the best available link when the Automatic Link Selection checkbox is selected. Extreme Networks recommends you do not disable this option, as (when enabled) the access point will select the best base bridge for connection. 8 Refer to the Available Base Bridge List to view devices located by the access point using the WLAN selected from the Radio Configuration screen.
16 If using a dual-radio model access point, refer to the Mesh Timeout drop-down menu (from within the Radio Configuration screen) to define whether one of the access point’s radio’s beacons on an existing WLAN or if a client bridge radio uses an uplink connection. The Mesh Timeout value is not available on a single-radio access point, since the radio would have to stop beaconing and go into scan mode to determine if a base bridge uplink is lost.
Configuring Mesh Networking For additional information on configuring the access point’s radio, see “Configuring the 802.11a or 802.11b/g Radio” on page 154. For two fictional deployment scenarios, see “Mesh Network Deployment—Quick Setup” on page 530. Mesh Network Deployment—Quick Setup This section provides instructions on how to quickly setup and demonstrate mesh functionality using three access points.
Configuring AP#1: 1 Provide a known IP address for the LAN1 interface. NOTE Enable the LAN1 Interface of AP#1 as a DHCP Server if you intend to associate MUs and require them to obtain an IP address via DHCP.
Configuring Mesh Networking 2 Assign a Mesh STP Priority of 40000 to LAN1 Interface.
3 Define a mesh supported WLAN.
Configuring Mesh Networking 4 Enable base bridge functionality on the 802.11a radio (Radio 2).
5 Define a channel of operation for the 802.11a radio.
Configuring Mesh Networking 6 If needed, create another WLAN mapped to the 802.11bg radio if 802.11bg support is required for MUs on that 802.11 band. Configuring AP#2 AP#2 can be configured the same as AP#1 with the following exceptions: ● Assign an IP Address to the LAN1 Interface different than that of AP#1. ● Assign a higher Mesh STP Priority 50000 to the AP#2 LAN1 Interface. NOTE In a typical deployment, each base bridge can be configured for a Mesh STP Priority of 50000.
Configuring AP#3 To define the configuration for AP#3 (a client bridge connecting to both AP#1 and AP#2 simultaneously): 1 Provide a known IP address for the LAN1 interface.
Configuring Mesh Networking 2 Assign the maximum value (65535) for the Mesh STP Priority. 3 Create a mesh supported WLAN with the Enable Client Bridge Backhaul option selected. NOTE This WLAN should not be mapped to any radio. Therefore, leave both of the “Available On” radio options unselected.
4 Select the Client Bridge checkbox to enable client bridge functionality on the 802.11a radio. Use the Mesh Network Name drop-down menu to select the name of the WLAN created in step 3. NOTE You don't need to configure channel settings on the client bridge (AP#3). It automatically finds the base bridges (AP#1 and AP#2) and uses the channel assigned to them.
Configuring Mesh Networking 5 If needed, create another WLAN mapped to the 802.11bg radio if 802.11bg support is required for MUs on that 802.11 band. Verifying Mesh Network Functionality for Scenario #1 You now have a three AP mesh network ready to demonstrate. Associate a single MU on each AP WLAN configured for 802.11bg radio support. Once completed, pass traffic among the three APs comprising the mesh network.
Scenario 2—Two Hop Mesh Network with a Base Bridge Repeater and a Client Bridge By default, the mesh algorithm runs an automatic link selection algorithm to determine the best possible active and redundant links. If member APs are not far apart (in physical distance), the algorithm intelligently chooses a single hop link to forward data. To force APs to use multiple hops for demonstrations, use manual links.
Configuring Mesh Networking 1 Enable client bridge backhaul on the mesh supported WLAN.
2 Enable client and base bridge functionality on the 802.11a radio. Configuring AP#3 To define AP #3’s configuration: 1 The only change needed on AP#3 (with respect to the configuration used in scenario #1) is to disable the Auto Link Selection option. Click the Advanced button within the Mesh Client Bridge Settings field.
Configuring Mesh Networking 2 Add the 802.11a Radio MAC Address. In scenario #2, the mesh WLAN is mapped to BSS1 on the 802.11a radio of each AP. The Radio MAC Address (the BSSID#1 MAC Address) is used for the AP#2 Preferred Base Bridge List. Ensure both the AP#1 and AP#2 Radio MAC Addresses are in the Available Base Bridge List. Add the AP#2 MAC Address into the Preferred Base Bridge List. 3 Determine the Radio MAC Address and BSSID MAC Addresses.
(AP3). However, the client bridge (AP3) is connecting to both AP1 and AP2 and using its link to base bridge (AP1) to forward traffic. Resolution. This is valid behavior, you see this when your mesh APs are close enough (in proximity) so the client bridge can see both the base bridges (AP1, AP2), in which case it forms two links, one each to AP1 and AP2. Since the link to AP1 is the shortest path in terms of number of hops, AP3 uses that link to forward traffic.
Configuring Mesh Networking Resolution. No, an Altitude 4600 does not support mesh networking, so you won't be able to mesh between two Altitude 4600s or between an Altitude 4600 and an Altitude 3510 or Altitude 3550. Mesh Deployment Issue 10—Can I update firmware/configuration files across a mesh backhaul? Can I update device firmware over the mesh backhaul on a client bridge or repeater AP with no wired connectivity? Resolution.
10 Adaptive AP CHAPTER Adaptive AP Overview An adaptive AP (AAP) is an Altitude 35xx access point that can adopt like an Altitude 4600 series access point (L3). The management of an AAP is conducted by the controller, once the access point connects to an Extreme Networks controller and receives its AAP configuration. An AAP provides: ● local 802.
Adaptive AP Where to Go From Here Refer to the following for a further understanding of AAP operation: ● Adaptive AP Management on page 548 ● Types of Adaptive APs on page 549 ● Licensing on page 549 ● Controller Discovery on page 549 ● Securing a Configuration Channel Between Controller and AP on page 550 ● Adaptive AP WLAN Topology on page 551 ● Chapter 10 ● Securing Data Tunnels between the Controller and AAP on page 551 ● Adaptive AP Controller Failure on page 551 ● Remote Site Survi
Types of Adaptive APs The types of adaptive access points include the following: ● AP3510 - US ● AP3510 - ROW ● AP3510 - IL (Israel) ● AP3550 - US ● AP3550 - ROW Licensing An AAP uses the same licensing scheme as a thin access port. This implies an existing license purchased with a controller can be used for an AAP deployment. Regardless of how many AAPs are deployed, you must ensure the license used by the controller supports the number of radio ports you intend to adopt.
Adaptive AP tunnel-to-controller enable Manual Adoption Configuration A manual controller adoption of an AAP can be conducted using: ● Static FQDN—A controller fully qualified domain name can be specified to perform a DNS lookup and controller discovery. ● Static IP addresses—Up to 12 controller IP addresses can be manually specified in an ordered list the AP can choose from. When providing a list, the AAP tries to adopt based on the order in which they are listed (from 1-12).
Adaptive AP WLAN Topology An AAP can be deployed in the following WLAN topologies: ● Extended WLANs—Extended WLANs are the centralized WLANs created on the controller. ● Independent WLANs—Independent WLANs are local to an AAP and can be configured from the controller. You must specify a WLAN as independent to stop traffic from being forwarded to the controller. Independent WLANs behave like WLANs on a standalone access point.
Adaptive AP Remote Site Survivability (RSS) RSS can be used to turn off RF activity on an AAP if it loses adoption (connection) to the controller. RSS State Independent WLANs Extended WLANs RSS Enabled WLAN continues beaconing WLAN continues beaconing but AP does allow clients to associate on that WLAN RSS Disabled WLAN stops beaconing WLAN stops beaconing NOTE For a dependant AAP, independent WLANs continue to beacon for three days in the absence of a controller.
For an overview of mesh networking and how to configure an Altitude 3510 or Altitude 3550 to support mesh, see “Configuring Mesh Networking” on page 515. Supported Adaptive AP Topologies For this version 2.
Adaptive AP Extended WLANs Only An extended WLAN configuration forces all MU traffic through the controller. No wireless traffic is locally bridged by the AAP. Each extended WLAN is mapped to the access point's virtual LAN2 subnet. By default, the access point's LAN2 is not enabled and the default configuration is set to static with IP addresses defined as all zeros.
How the AP Receives Its Adaptive Configuration An AAP does not require a separate “local” or “running” configuration. Once enabled as an AAP, the AP obtains its configuration from the controller. If the AP’s WAN link fails, it continues to operate using the last valid configuration until its link is re-established and a new configuration is pushed down from the controller. There is no separate file-based configuration stored on the controller.
Adaptive AP Configuring the Controller for Adaptive AP Adoption The tasks described below are configured on an Extreme Networks controller. For information on configuring the controller for AAP support, see http://www.extremenetworks.com/go/documentation. To adopt an AAP on a controller: 1 Ensure enough licenses are available on the controller to adopt the required number of AAPs. 2 As soon as the AAP displays in the adopted list: Adjust each AAP’s radio configuration as required.
Adopting an Adaptive AP Manually To manually enable the access point’s controller discovery method and connection medium required for adoption: 1 Select System Configuration > Adaptive AP Setup from the access point’s menu tree. CAUTION If deploying the access point as an AAP with a remote layer 3 configuration and the AAP is set for controller auto discovery (primary/standby), the access point will un-adopt from its controller after a few moments. To remedy this problem, ensure LAN1 has 802.
Adaptive AP 6 If using IPSec as the tunnel resource, enter the IPSec Passkey to ensure IPSec connectivity. 7 Click Apply to save the changes to the AAP setup. NOTE The manual AAP adoption described above can also be conducted using the access point’s CLI interface using the admin(system.aapsetup)> command. Adopting an Adaptive AP Using a Configuration File To adopt an AAP using a configuration file: 1 Refer to “Adopting an Adaptive AP Manually” and define the AAP controller connection parameters.
To disable automatic adoption on the controller: 1 Select Network > Access Point Radios from the controller main menu tree. 2 Select the Configuration tab (should be displayed be default) and click the Global Settings button. 3 Ensure the Adopt unconfigured radios automatically option is NOT selected. When disabled, there is no automatic adoption of non-configured radios on the network. Additionally, default radio settings will NOT be applied to access points when automatically adopted.
Adaptive AP NOTE Additionally, a WLAN can be defined as independent using the "wlan independent" command from the config-wireless context. Once an AAP is adopted by the controller, it displays within the controller Access Point Radios screen (under the Network parent menu item) as an Altitude 3510 or Altitude 3550 within the AP Type column.
Adaptive AP Deployment Considerations Before deploying your controller/AAP configuration, refer to the following usage caveats to optimize its effectiveness: ● If deploying the access point as an AAP with a remote layer 3 configuration and the AAP is set for controller auto discovery (primary/standby), the access point will un-adopt from its controller after a few moments. To remedy this problem, ensure LAN1 has 802.1q trunking enabled and the correct management VLAN defined.

B Usage Scenarios APPENDIX This appendix section provides practical usage scenarios for many of the access point’s key features. This information should be referenced as a supplement to the information contained within this Product Reference Guide.
Windows—DHCP Server Configuration See the following sections for information on these DHCP server configurations in the Windows environment: ● Embedded Options—Using Option 43 on page 574 ● Global Options—Using Extended/Standard Options on page 575 Embedded Options—Using Option 43 This section provides instructions for automatic update of firmware and configuration file via DHCP using extended options or standard options configured globally.
● Obtains and applies the expected IP Address from the DHCP Server ● Downloads both the firmware and configuration files from the TFTP Server and updates both as needed. Verify the file versions within the System Settings screen. NOTE If the firmware files are the same, the firmware will not get updated. If the configuration file name matches the last used configuration file on the access point or if the configuration file versions are the same, the access point configuration will not get updated.
d Under the General tab, check all 3 options mentioned within the Extended Options table and enter a value for each option. 3 Copy both the firmware and configuration files to the appropriate directory on the TFTP Server. By default, auto update is enabled on the access point (since the LAN Port is a DHCP Client, out-of-the-box auto update support is on the LAN Port). 4 Restart the access point.
DHCP Priorities The following flowchart indicates the priorities used by the access point when the DHCP server is configured for multiple options. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If the DHCP Server is configured for options 186 and 66 (to assign TFTP Server IP addresses) the access point uses the IP address configured for option 186.
To configure BootP options using a Linux/Unix BootP Server: 1 Set the Linux/Unix BootP Server and access point on the same Ethernet segment. 2 Configure the bootptab file (/etc/bootptab) on the Linux/Unix BootP Server in any one of the formats that follows: Using options 186, 187 and 188: AP35xx:ha=00a0f88aa6d8\ :sm=255.255.255.0\ :ip=157.235.93.128\ :gw=157.235.93.2\ :T186="157.235.93.250"\ :T187="apfw.bin"\ :T188="cfg.
or the firmware file name. If T136 is not specified, the access point uses the entire bf field as the config file name. NOTE The update process is conducted over the LAN or WAN port depending on which Server responds first to the access point’s request for an automatic update. NOTE If the firmware files are the same, the firmware will not get updated.
Configuring a VPN Tunnel Between Two Access Points The access point can connect to a non-AP device supporting IPSec, such as a Cisco VPN device—labeled as “Device #2”. For this usage scenario, the following components are required: ● 2 access points (either an Altitude 3510 or Altitude 3550 model) ● 1 PC on each side of the access point’s LAN. To configure a VPN tunnel between two access points: 1 Ensure the WAN ports are connected via the internet.
NOTE For this example, Auto IKE Key Exchange is used. Any key exchange can be used, depending on the security needed, as long as both devices on each end of the tunnel are configured exactly the same. 9 Select the Auto (IKE) Key Exchange radio button. 10 Select the Auto Key Settings button. 11 For the ESP Type, select ESP with Authentication and use AES 128-bit as the ESP encryption algorithm and MD5 as the authentication algorithm. Click OK. 12 Select the IKE Settings button.
13 Select Pre Shared Key (PSK) from the IKE Authentication Mode drop-down menu. 14 Enter a Passphrase. Passphrases must match on both VPN devices. NOTE Ensure the IKE authentication Passphrase is the same as the Pre-shared key on the Cisco PIX device. 15 Select AES 128-bit as the IKE Encryption Algorithm. 16 Select Group 2 as the Diffie -Hellman Group. Click OK. This will take you back to the VPN screen. 17 Click Apply to make the changes 18 Check the VPN Status screen.
For the usage scenario described in this section, you will require the following: ● 1 Cisco VPN device ● 1 PC connected to the LAN side of the access point and the Cisco PIX. NOTE The Cisco PIX device configuration should match the access point VPN configuration in terms of Local WAN IP (PIX WAN), Remote WAN Gateway (access point WAN IP), Remote Subnet (access point LAN Subnet), and the Remote Subnet Mask.
● Question 2: Even if a wildcard entry of “0.0.0.0” is entered in the Remote Subnet field in the VPN configuration page, can the AP access multiple subnets on the other end of a VPN concentrator for the AP’s LAN/WAN side? No. Using a “0.0.0.0” wildcard is an unsupported configuration. In order to access multiple subnets, the steps in Question #1 must be followed. ● Question 3: Can the AP be accessed via its LAN interface of AP#1 from the local subnet of AP#2 and vice versa? Yes.
Configure the following on the IKE Settings page: Local ID type refers to the way that IKE selects a local certificate to use. ● IP—tries to match the local WAN IP to the IP addresses specified in a local certificate. ● FQDN—tries to match the user entered local ID data string to the domain name field of the certificate. ● UFQDN—tries to match the user entered local ID data string to the email address field of the certificate.
VPN tunnels are negotiated on an “as-needed” basis. If you have not sent any traffic between the two subnets, the tunnel will not get established. Once a packet is sent between the two subnets, the VPN tunnel setup occurs. ● Question 10: I still can't get my tunnel to work after attempting to initiate traffic between the two subnets. What now? Try the following troubleshooting tips: ● ● Verify you can ping each of the remote Gateway IP addresses from clients on either side.
● Question 12: Do I need to add any special routes on the access point to get my VPN tunnel to work? No. However, clients could need extra routing information. Clients on the local LAN side should either use the access point as their gateway or have a route entry tell them to use the access point as the gateway to reach the remote subnet.
