If the Port Profile requires bouncing the port after the VLAN is changed, then after user login, the
user will see “Renewing IP address” page after the sum of the number of seconds specified in this
field and the number of seconds specified in the Port Bounce Interval. For example:
Port Bounce (5 seconds) + Redirection Delay (15 seconds) = Redirection interval (20 seconds total)
• SNMP Timeout (default is 5 seconds)—This field enables you to specify the SNMP timeout value
(in seconds) for read/write requests, SNMP trap message responses from a managed switch that
saves its current (running) configuration when instructed by the Clean Access Manager.
Step 3 Click Update to save settings.
Add and Manage Switches
The pages under the OOB Management > Devices > Devices tab are used to discover and add new
managed switches within an IP range, add new managed switches by exact IP address, manage the list
of controlled switches, and verify the switches and WLC.
• Add New Switch, page 3-49
• Search New Switches, page 3-50
• Verify Devices, page 3-51
Figure 3-28 List of Switches
The list of switches under OOB Management > Devices > Devices > List displays all switches and
WLCs added from the New or Search forms. Switch entries in the list include the switch’s IP address,
MAC address, Description, and Switch Profile. You can sort the entries on the list by Device Group,
Device Profile, or Port Profile dropdowns, or you can simply type a Device IP and hit Enter to search
for a switch or WLC by its address. Additionally the List provides one control and three icons:
• Profile—Clicking the Profile link brings up the Switch Profile (Figure 3-15).
• Config—Clicking the Config icon brings up the Config Tab, page 3-63 for the switch.
• Ports—Clicking the Ports icon brings up the Ports Management Page, page 3-54 for the switch.
Note WLC device profiles do not use Port Profile configurations. Therefore, the Ports icon
remains “grayed out” for any WLC entries in the table.
