Chapter 4 Wireless LAN Controller Management: Configuring Wireless Out-of-Band Deployment

Configure Wireless LAN Controller Connection on the CAM

This section describes the web admin console configuration steps to implement Wireless OOB. In

general, you first configure Group and Wireless LAN Controller profiles, and the CAM’s SNMP

Receiver settings under OOB Management > Profiles. After the WLC profile is configured, add the new

WLC you want to communicate with to the Clean Access Manager’s domain under OOB Management

> Devices, and ensure the new profile appears in the Devices list.

The configuration sequence is as follows:

1. Plan your settings and configure the switches to be managed, as described in previous section,

Configure Your Wireless LAN Controllers, page 4-7

2. Add a Wireless Out-of-Band Clean Access Server and Configure Environment, page 4-13

3. Configure Group Profiles, page 4-14

4. Configure Wireless LAN Controller Profiles, page 4-16

5. Configure SNMP Receiver, page 4-19

6. Add and Manage Wireless LAN Controllers, page 4-20

Add a Wireless Out-of-Band Clean Access Server and Configure Environment

Almost all the CAM/CAS configuration for Wireless Out-of-Band deployment is done directly in the

OOB Management module of the CAM web console. If your Wireless LAN Controller installation

features great enough throughput/bandwidth, you can (and may need to) configure more than one Clean

Access Server to handle all of the authentication traffic between wireless client machines and the Cisco

NAC Appliance system.

To add a Wireless OOB Clean Access Server to the CAM:

Step 1 Choose the Out-of-Band Virtual Gateway option from the Server Type dropdown menu (Figure 4-7).
