VNS global settings
To define inter-HiPath Wireless Controller shared secret for VNS global settings:
1. From the main menu, click Virtual Network Configuration. The Virtual Network list
appears.
2. In the left pane, click Global Settings.
3. Click the General tab.
4. In the Inter-HWC Shared Secret box, type a password between 8 and 63 characters long,
to be used between HiPath Wireless Controllers. The same shared secret must also be
defined on the other HiPath Wireless Controllers on the network. The Inter-HWC shared
secret is also used to protect communications between the HiPath Wireless Controller and
the HiPath Wireless Manager.
5. In order to proofread your password before saving the configuration, click Unmask. The
password is displayed. To mask the password, click Mask.
This precautionary step is highly recommended in order to avoid an error, later, when the
HiPath Wireless Controller attempts to communicate with the RADIUS server.
6. To save your changes, click Save.
