The following topology was tested during VIEW Certification testing. Known Limitations No limitations were discovered during VIEW Certification testing. VIEW Certification testing verifies that the wireless telephone and the AP interoperate at the packet level; therefore, no add-on vendor features were tested in the scope of VIEW. PN: 1725-36080-001_J.doc Aruba Mobility Controllers: A200, A800, A2400, A6000 Deployment Description It is a SpectraLink requirement that voice users be placed on a separate VLAN (e.g., VLAN 10) and data users on a separate VLAN (e.g., VLAN 25). The voice and data VLANs reside on the Aruba mobility controller and not on the access points (APs). The user traffic is tunneled back to the Aruba controller for processing. The edge network thus does not have to be modified to accommodate the WiFi clients and the VoWiFi network. Map each VLAN to a unique subnet. The mobility controller (switch) IP address needs to be set via the loopback interface setting. The Controller’s loopback address must be a routable address so that the APs can reach this address. Interface setting Identify the mobility controller port that serves as the uplink port for the data VLAN. The physical port used in this example is Fast Ethernet 1/0. This port is configured as a trunk port with both the voice and data VLAN. Default route The L3 switch connected to the Aruba controller serves as the default gateway for all the WiFi clients. Configure the default route to the next-hop gateway connected to the mobility controller. Physical interface All interfaces that connect to the core networks, routers, servers and gateways need to be set as trusted ports. Connecting the APs The APs need an IP address for communication with the mobility controller. The APs can connect to the controller over a L2 or L3 network. Ensure that DHCP is enabled on the subnets the APs are connected to and the APs can ping the Aruba mobility controller’s “switch IP address” from their current subnet. PN: 1725-36080-001_J.doc Configuration Guide Connecting to the Mobility Controller Command, comment, and screen text key In the sections below you will find commands, comments, prompts, system responses, or other screen-displayed information involved in the configuration process. This key explains the text styles and symbols used to denote them. Text Style Denotes: xxxxxxxx Typed command Encryption key, domain name or other information specific to your system that needs to be entered (xxxxxxxx) Comment about a command or set of commands xxxxxxxx Prompt, system response or other displayed information Via console 1. Using a standard RS-232 cable, connect the Aruba mobility controller to the serial port of a terminal or PC. 2. Run a terminal emulation program (such as HyperTerminal™) or use a VT-100 terminal with the following configuration: Bits per second: 9600 Data bits: 8 Parity: None Stop bits: 1 Flow control: None 3. Press Enter to display the Aruba mobility controller login screen. 4. Enter the default login: admin and the default password: admin. These are case sensitive. 5. Enter enable and the default password: admin to get into the command mode. PN: 1725-36080-001_J.doc Aruba Mobility Controllers: A200, A800, A2400, A6000 Via the CLI By default, only SSH (Secure Shell) access to the switch (mobility controller) is permitted. 1. From a management system that has network connectivity to the switch, connect to the switch using SSH: ssh admin@ 2. Enter the admin password at the password prompt. 3. Type enable at the > prompt to enter the enable mode. 4. Type the enable password when prompted for a password. Via the Web interface Once the connectivity to the switch is verified, open a Web browser and enter the switch’s IP address in the navigator bar. The switch can be accessed using http at IP Address> or https at https://:4343. The user is prompted with the username and password configured (in the example above, the username/passwordconfigured is admin/admin). On successful login the following Network Summary screen is displayed: PN: 1725-36080-001_J.doc Configuration Guide Initial Setup Before starting, please ensure that the Policy Enforcement Firewall module license is enabled on the Aruba mobility controller. Please contact Aruba Networks for licenses and installation information. On power-up, the user is presented with the startup wizard: Enter System name [Aruba800]: Aruba Enter VLAN 1 interface IP address [172.16.0.254]: Enter VLAN 1 interface subnet mask [255.255.255.0]: Enter IP Default gateway [none]: Enter Switch Role, (master|local) [master]: master Enter Country code (ISO-3166), for supported list: US You have chosen Country code US for United States (yes|no)?: yes Enter Password for admin login (up to 32 chars): admin Re-type Password for admin login: admin Enter Password for enable mode (up to 15 chars): enable Re-type Password for enable mode: enable Do y...
