Difficulty: MediumWireless LAN Client Connectivity Configuration via WLC GUI

A network technician is configuring a newly created WLAN on a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) via the web interface. To ensure wireless clients are placed onto the correct IP subnet upon association, the WLAN must be mapped to a specific dynamic interface instead of using the default management interface. Under which tab within the WLANs > Edit menu is this Interface/Interface Group mapping configured?

  1. General tabAnswer
  2. B
    Security tab, under the Layer 2 sub-tab
  3. C
    Advanced tab
  4. D
    Security tab, under the AAA Servers sub-tab

Answer

The Interface/Interface Group dropdown menu for binding a WLAN to a dynamic interface is located under the General tab in the Cisco WLC GUI.
In the Cisco WLC web GUI, navigating to WLANs > Edit displays the General tab by default. This tab contains fundamental settings including the WLAN Profile Name, broadcast SSID, WLAN Status enablement, and the 'Interface/Interface Group' drop-down list which maps client traffic on that SSID to a specific dynamic interface and associated VLAN.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the required configuration task in the WLC GUI
The goal is to map a WLAN to a dynamic interface/VLAN to ensure correct client IP subnet placement.
By default, new WLANs inherit the management interface unless explicitly configured otherwise.
2
Locate the primary menu tab for core WLAN identification and interface parameters
In the Cisco WLC web GUI (WLANs > Edit), the General tab houses the Profile Name, SSID, Status enablement checkbox, and the Interface/Interface Group (Gradients) setting.
Interface binding is a core attribute of the WLAN profile configuration located under General settings.
