4 From the WM-AD Mode drop-down list, click Routed.
5 From the DHCP drop-down list, click one of the two options:
● Local DHCP Server: If you select Local DHCP Server, the built-in DHCP server in Summit WM
Controller provides the IP addresses to the devices to the wireless network. For more
information, see “DHCP for WM-AD” on page 16.
■ Gateway – The Summit WM Controller advertises this address to the wireless devices when
they sign on and get a dynamic IP address. The gateway corresponds to the IP address that is
communicated to mobile users
■ Mask – Subnet mask for this IP address to separate the network portion from the host portion
of the address (typically 255.255.255.0).
■ Address Range – Range from which the IP addresses are provided to the wireless devices that
would use this WM-AD. This text box (from and to) may populate automatically, if you have
already provided the range while configuring the APs.
■ B’cast Address – Populates automatically based on the Gateway IP address and the subnet
mask of the WM-AD.
■ Domain Name – External enterprise domain name. You must type the external enterprise
domain name in this text box.
■ Lease – text box has two sub text boxes – default, and maximum. The two sub text boxes
