ProSAFE Wireless Controller
Single Controller Configuration With Advanced Profile Groups
A more complex configuration consists of a single wireless controller that controls a collection
of access points that are organized in access point profile groups and might use several
profiles in each access point profile group.
 To set up a single wireless controller system with advanced profile groups:
Step Configuration Web Management Interface Path
1. Configure the system and network settings of the wireless
controller:
1. Configure the country code of operation.
Configuration > System > General
2. Configure the time settings.
Configuration > System > Time
3. Configure the IP address of the wireless controller.
Configuration > System > IP/VLAN
4. Verify that VLAN 1 is set as the management VLAN and is
marked as untagged.
By default, VLAN 1 an untagged management VLAN.
5. If no network DHCP server is accessible to the access points,
configure the wireless controller’s DHCP server.
Configuration > System > DHCP
Server
2. Configure up to eight access point profile groups, and for each
access point profile in a group, do at least the following:
1. Configure an SSID for WiFi access.
Configuration > Profile > Advanced
2. Configure the network authentication and data encryption.
3. Assign the VLAN.
4. If necessary for the selected network authentication option,
configure the authentication server.
Configuration > Security >
Advanced > Authentication Server
3. Run the Discovery Wizard and add the access points to the
managed access point list.
Access Point > Discovery Wizard
4. Assign the access points to the access point profile groups (also
referred to as WLAN groups).
Configuration > WLAN Network
