Level 1

Hello guys

Could any engineer help me to cover wireless topic as CCNP level.

1- what is service port in WLC it's usage ? why we assign ip for it ?

2- which port is used to update/convert AP to LWAP ?

3- during initializing WLC it requires default router Ip address what to assign ?

4- Does ethernet interfaces of WLC connected to SW need to be configured with IP address ?

I didn't understand why we create mgmt vlan and mgmt interface in switch and assig ip address to it ?

I understand all above with some confusion could any one please post links of tutorial which i can solve my confusions, any video, pdf,pptx,docx...ect..

 

Thank you

A lot of this information is provided in the install guide.  I would Google the information if you need more details.

1- what is service port in WLC it's usage ? Out of band and you don't have to use it.  why we assign ip for it ? Only if you want to use it out of band

2- which port is used to update/convert AP to LWAP ? Management

3- during initializing WLC it requires default router Ip address what to assign ? The default router ip

4- Does ethernet interfaces of WLC connected to SW need to be configured with IP address ? No

I didn't understand why we create mgmt vlan and mgmt interface in switch and assig ip address to it ? The management ip is so you can manage the device or devices.  A management vlan is to keep devices separated from other devices or clients.  How would you https or ssh to a device with no management ip.  You don't have to have a management vlan per say, just a vlan, that is up to you.

I understand all above with some confusion could any one please post links of tutorial which i can solve my confusions, any video, pdf,pptx,docx...ect..
