Managing Global Configuration
Global configuration refers to the country code and the port number that is used for tunneling
GRE + UDP traffic. These settings are applied across all AP zones and the managed devices
that belong to each AP zone.
Different countries have different regulations on the usage of radio channels. To ensure that the
controller is using an authorized radio channel, select the correct country code for your location.
If you change the country code now, this change will only be applied to new zones and the APs
that will be assigned to them. Existing zones and the APs that belong to them will retain the
country code that was configured previously.
Follow these steps to set the global configuration.
1. Go to Configuration > AP Zones.
2. On the sidebar, click Global Configuration.
3. In Default Country Code for New Zone, select the correct country code for the geographical
location where the managed devices (or APs) are deployed.
Selecting the correct country code will ensure that managed devices use an authorized radio
channel.
After you select a new country code, the Apply and Cancel buttons become active.
4. Click Apply to save the country code.
5. In AP GRE Tunnel Options, type the port number that you want the controller to use for
tunneling GRE and UDP traffic from managed devices.
The default tunnel port number is 23233.
NOTE: Make sure that you open this port number on the network firewall to ensure that a
GRE tunnel can be established successfully.
After you type the new tunnel port number, the Apply and Cancel buttons become active.
