Summit WM-Series WLAN Switch and Altitude Access Point Software Version 1.0 User Guide
61
5 WM Access Domain Services (WM-AD):
Introduction
Overview
WM Access Domain Services (WM-AD) are the key to the advantages that the Summit WM-Series
Switch Software system has to offer. This technique provides a versatile means of mapping wireless
networks to the topology of an existing wired network.
When you set up a WM-AD on the Summit WM-Series Switch, you are defining a subnet for a group of
wireless device users. This WM-AD definition creates a virtual IP subnet where the Summit WM-Series
Switch acts as a default gateway to wireless devices.
Before you begin to define a WM-AD, you should have determined:
a user access plan for both individual users and user groups
the RADIUS attribute values that support the user access plan
the location and identity of the Altitude APs that will be used on the WM-AD
the routing mechanism to be used on the WM-AD
the network addresses that the WM-AD will use
the type of authentication for wireless device users on the WM-AD
the specific filters to be applied to the defined users and user groups to control network access
what privacy mechanisms should be employed between the Altitude APs and the wireless devices
whether the WM-AD is to be used for voice traffic
The user access plan should analyze the enterprise network and identify which users should have access
to which areas of the network. What areas of the network should be separated? Which users can go out
the World Wide Web?
The Summit WM-Series Switch Software system relies on authenticating users via a RADIUS server (or
other authentication server). To make use of this feature, you will, of course, require such an
authentication server on the network. Make sure that the server's database of registered users, with
login identification and passwords, is current.
NOTE
To deploy Summit WM-Series Switch Software without a RADIUS server (and without authentication of users on the
network), select SSID for network assignment (in the Topology screen). In the Authentication - Configure Captive
Portal screen, click on the No Captive Portal radio button. There will be no authentication of users, but Summit WM-
Series Switch Software is otherwise operational.
The user access plan should also identify the user groups in your enterprise, and the business structure of
the enterprise network., such as:
department (such as Engineering, Sales, Finance)
role (such as student, teacher, library user)
status (such as guest, administration, technician)
