Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.4.0.2-4.1 | CLI Reference Guide

Chapter 1
Instant CLI

Instant supports the use of Command Line Interface (CLI) for scripting purposes. You can access the Instant CLI
through a Secure Shell (SSH).
To enable the SSH access to the Instant CLI:
1. From the Instant UI, navigate to System > Show advanced options.
2. Select Enabled from the Terminal access drop-down list.
3. Click OK.

Connecting to a CLI Session
On connecting to a CLI session, the system displays its host name followed by the login prompt. Use the
administrator credentials to start a CLI session. For example:
(Instant AP)
User: admin
Password: *****

If the login is successful, the privileged command mode is enabled and a command prompt is displayed. For
example:
(Instant AP)#

The privileged mode provides access to show, clear, ping, traceroute, and commit commands. The configuration
commands are available in the configuration (config) mode. To move from privileged mode to the configuration mode,
enter the following command at the command prompt:
(Instant AP)# configure terminal

The configure terminal command allows you to enter the basic configuration mode and the command prompt is
displayed as follows:
(Instant AP)(config)#

The Instant CLI allows CLI scripting in several other sub-command modes to allow the users to configure individual
interfaces, SSIDs, access rules, and security settings.
You can use the question mark (?) to view the commands available in a privileged mode, configuration mode, or submode.
Although automatic completion is supported for some commands such as configure terminal, the complete exit
and end commands must be entered at command prompt for successful execution.

Applying Configuration Changes
Each command processed by the Virtual Controller is applied on all the slave W-IAPs in a cluster. When you make
configuration changes on a master W-IAP in the CLI, all associated W-IAPs in the cluster inherit these changes and
subsequently update their configurations. The changes configured in a CLI session are saved in the CLI context.
The CLI does not support the configuration data exceeding the 4K buffer size in a CLI session: therefore, it is
recommended that you configure fewer changes at a time and apply the changes at regular intervals.
To apply and save the configuration changes at regular intervals, use the following command in the privileged mode:
(Instant AP)# commit apply

Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.4.0.2-4.1 | CLI Reference Guide

Instant CLI | 7

To apply the configuration changes to the cluster, without saving the configuration, use the following command in the
privileged mode:
(Instant AP)# commit apply no-save

To view the changes that are yet to be applied, use the following command in the privileged mode:
(Instant AP)# show uncommitted-config

To revert to the earlier configuration, use the following command in the privileged mode.
(Instant AP)# commit revert

Example:
(Instant
(Instant
(Instant
(Instant
(Instant
(Instant
(Instant
(Instant

AP)(config)# rf dot11a-radio-profile
AP)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# beacon-interval 200
AP)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# no legacy-mode
AP)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# dot11h
AP)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# interference-immunity 3
AP)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# csa-count 2
AP)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# spectrum-monitor
AP)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# end

(Instant AP)# show uncommitted-config
rf dot11a-radio-profile
no legacy-mode
beacon-interval 200
no dot11h
interference-immunity 3
csa-count 1
no spectrum-monitor
Instant Access Point# commit apply

Configuration Sub-modes
Some commands in configuration mode allow you to enter into a sub-mode to configure the commands specific to
that mode. When you are in a configuration sub-mode, the command prompt changes to indicate the current submode.
You can exit a sub-command mode and return to the basic configuration mode or the privileged Exec (enable) mode
at any time by executing the exit or end command.

Deleting Configuration Settings
Use the no command to delete or negate previously-entered configurations or parameters.
l

To view a list of no commands, type no at the prompt in the relevant mode or sub-mode followed by the question
mark. For example:
(Instant AP)(config) # no?

l

To delete a configuration, use the no form of a configuration command. For example, the following command
removes a configured user role:
(Instant AP)(config) # no user 

l

To negate a specific configured parameter, use the no parameter within the command. For example, the following
command deletes the PPPoE user configuration settings:
(Instant AP)(config) # pppoe-uplink-profile
(Instant AP)(pppoe_uplink_profile)# no pppoe-username

Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.4.0.2-4.1 | CLI Reference Guide

Using Sequence Sensitive Commands
The Instant CLI does not support positioning or precedence of sequence-sensitive commands. Therefore, it is
recommended that you remove the existing configuration before adding or modifying the configuration details for
sequence-sensitive commands. You can either delete an existing profile or remove a specific configuration by using
the no… commands.
The following table lists the sequence-sensitive commands and the corresponding no command to remove the
configuration.

no auth-server 

Saving Configuration Changes
The running-config holds the current W-IAP configuration, including all pending changes which are yet to be saved.
To view the running-config of a W-IAP, use the following command:
(Instant AP) # show running-config

When you make configuration changes through the CLI, the changes affect the current running configuration only. To
save your configuration changes, use the following command in the privileged Exec mode:
(Instant AP)# write memory

Commands that Reset the W-IAP
If you use the CLI to modify a currently provisioned radio profile, the changes take place immediately. A reboot of the
W-IAP is not required to apply the configuration changes. Certain commands, however, automatically force W-IAP
to reboot. Verify the current network loads and conditions before executing the commands that enforce a reboot of
the W-IAP, as they may cause a momentary disruption in service as the unit resets.
The reload command resets a W-IAP.

This section describes addresses and other identifiers that you can reference in CLI commands.
Table 7: Addresses and Identifiers
Address/Identifier

Description

IP address

For any command that requires entry of an IP address to specify a network entity,
use IPv4 network address format in the conventional dotted decimal notation (for
example, 192.0.2.1).

Netmask address

For subnet addresses, specify a subnet mask in dotted decimal notation (for
example, 255.255.255.0).

Media Access Control
(MAC) address

For any command that requires entry of a device’s hardware address, use the
hexadecimal format (for example, 00:05:4e:50:14:aa).

Service Set Identifier
(SSID)

A unique character string (sometimes referred to as a network name), consisting
of no more than 32 characters. The SSID is case-sensitive (for example, WLAN01).

Basic Service Set
Identifier (BSSID)

This entry is the unique hard-wireless MAC address of the AP. A unique BSSID
applies to each frequency— 802.11a and 802.11g—used from the AP. Use the
same format as for a MAC address.

Extended Service Set

Diploe/Omni - 6

l
l
l

Dipole/Omni
Panel
Sector

Panel -14
Sector - 14

Usage Guidelines
If your W-IAP has external antenna connectors, you need to configure the transmit power of the system. The
configuration must ensure that the system’s Equivalent Isotropically Radiated Power (EIRP) is in compliance with
the limit specified by the regulatory authority of the country in which the W-IAP is deployed. You can also measure or
calculate additional attenuation between the device and antenna before configuring the antenna gain. To know if your
AP device supports external antenna connectors, see the Install Guide that is shipped along with the AP device.

EIRP and Antenna Gain
The following formula can be used to calculate the EIRP limit related RF power based on selected antennas
(antenna gain) and feeder (Coaxial Cable loss):
EIRP = Tx RF Power (dBm)+GA (dB) - FL (dB)
The following table describes this formula:

default-access — To provide access
based on client requests. When this
mode is configured, the per user and
per SSID bandwidth limits are not
enforced.
fair-access — To allocate Airtime evenly
across all the clients.
preferred-access — To set a preference
where 11n clients are assigned more
airtime than 11a/11g. The 11a/11g
clients get more airtime than 11b. The
ratio is 16:4:1.

Assigns the dual-band capable clients to
the 5 GHz band on dual-band. It reduces

Default

prefer-5ghz — To allow the W-IAP to
steer the client to 5 GHz band (if the
client is 5 GHz capable). However, the
W-IAP allows the client connection on
the 2.4 GHz band if the client
persistently attempts for 2.4 GHz
association.
force-5ghz — To enforce 5 GHz band
steering mode on the W-IAPs, so that
the 5 GHz capable clients are allowed to
use only the 5GHz channels.
balance-bands — To allow the W-IAPs to
balance the clients across the two 2.4
GHz and 5 GHz radio and to utilize the
available bandwidth.
disable — To allow the clients to select
the bands.

client-aware

Enables the client aware feature. When
enabled, the W-IAP will not change
channels for the Access Points when clients
are active, except for high priority events
such as radar or excessive noise. The client
aware feature must be enabled in most
deployments for a stable WLAN.

client-match

Enables enable the client match feature on
APs. When the client match feature is
enabled on a W-IAP, the W-IAP measures
the RF health of its associated clients. If
spectrum load balancing is triggered and a
client's Received Signal Strength Indication
(RSSI) is or less than 20 dB , clients are
moved from one AP to another for better
performance and client experience. In the
current release, the client match feature is
supported only within a W-IAP cluster.

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to configure a cellular uplink profile on a W-IAP and modem parameters 3G /4G uplink
provisioning. Instant supports the use of 3G/4G USB modems to provide Internet backhaul to an Instant network.
The 3G/4G USB modems can be used to extend client connectivity to places where an Ethernet uplink cannot be
configured. This enables the W-IAPs to automatically choose the available network in a specific region.
The 3G and 4G LTE USB modems can be provisioned on W-IAP3WN/3WNP and W-IAP155/155P.

Description
This command allows you to commit configuration changes performed during a user session. You can also revert the
changes that are already committed.

Syntax
Parameter

Description

apply

Applies and saves the W-IAP configuration changes.

no-save

Applies the configuration changes to the cluster, but does not save the
configuration. To save the configuration, run the write memory or commit apply
command.

revert

Reverts the changes committed to the current configuration of a W-IAP.

Usage Guidelines
Each command processed by the Virtual Controller is applied on all the slave W-IAPs in a cluster. The changes
configured in a CLI session are saved in the CLI context. The CLI does not support the configuration data exceeding
the 4K buffer size in a CLI session: therefore, Dell recommends that you configure fewer changes at a time and
apply the changes at regular intervals.
To apply and save the configuration changes, use the commit apply command. To apply the configuration changes
without saving the configuration, use the commit apply no-save command.

Example
The following command allows you to commit the configuration changes:
(Instant AP) # commit apply

The following command reverts the already committed changes.

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to enable external firewall integration with W-IAP. In Instant 6.3.1.1-4.0 release, W-IAPs can be
integrated with external firewall such as PAN firewall. The PAN firewall is based on user ID, which provides many
methods for connecting to sources of identity information and associating them with firewall policy rules. The
functionality provided by the PAN firewall based on user ID requires the collection of information from the network.
W-IAP maintains the network (such as mapping IP address) and user information for those clients in the network and
provides the required information for the user ID feature on PAN firewall.
To enable W-IAP integration with PAN firewall, a global profile configured on W-IAP with PAN firewall information
such as IP address, port, user name, password, firewall enabled or disabled status.

l
l

Dipole/Omni
Panel

Panel -12
Sector - 12

Usage Guidelines
If your W-IAP has external antenna connectors, you need to configure the transmit power of the system. The
configuration must ensure that the system’s Equivalent Isotropically Radiated Power (EIRP) is in compliance with
the limit specified by the regulatory authority of the country in which the W-IAP is deployed. You can also measure or
calculate additional attenuation between the device and antenna before configuring the antenna gain. To know if your
AP device supports external antenna connectors, see the Install Guide that is shipped along with the AP device.

EIRP and Antenna Gain
The following formula can be used to calculate the EIRP limit related RF power based on selected antennas
(antenna gain) and feeder (Coaxial Cable loss):
EIRP = Tx RF Power (dBm)+GA (dB) - FL (dB)
The following table describes this formula:
Table 9: Formula Variable Definitions

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to configure a hotspot profile. Hotspot 2.0 is a Wi-Fi Alliance specification based on the 802.11u
protocol, which allows wireless clients to discover hotspots using management frames (such as beacon,
association request and association response), connect to networks, and roam between networks without additional
authentication.
The Hotspot 2.0 provides the following services:

Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.4.0.2-4.1 | CLI Reference Guide

hotspot hs-profile | 117

l

Network discovery and selection— Allows the clients to discover suitable and available networks by advertising
the access network type, roaming consortium, and venue information through the management frames. For
network discovery and selection, Generic Advertisement Service (GAS) and Access Network Query Protocol
(ANQP) are used.

l

QOS Mapping— Provides a mapping between the network-layer QoS packet marking and over- the-air QoS frame
marking based on user priority.

When a hotspot is configured in a network:
l

The clients search for available hotspots using the beacon management frame.

l

When a hotspot is found, the client sends queries to obtain information about the type of network authentication
and IP address, and IP address availability using the Generic Advertisement Service (GAS) action frames.

l

Based on the response of the advertisement Server (response to the GAS Action Frames), the relevant hotspot is
selected and the client attempts to associate with it.

l

Based on the authentication mode used for mobility clients, the client authenticates to access the network.

Generic Advertisement Service (GAS) Queries
An Organization Identifier (OI) is a unique identifier assigned to a service provider when it registers with the IEEE
registration authority. A W-IAP can include its service provider OI in beacons and probe responses to clients. If a
client recognizes the OI, it will attempt to associate to the W-IAP using the security credentials corresponding to that
service provider.
If the client does not recognize the OI, that client can send a Generic Advertisement Service (GAS) query to the AP
to request more information more about the network before associating.

ANQP Information Elements
ANQP Information Elements (IEs) are additional data that can be sent from the AP to the client to identify the AP’s
network and service provider. If a client requests this information via a GAS query, the hotspot AP then sends the
ANQP Capability list in the GAS Initial Response frame indicating support for the following IEs:
l

Venue Name - Defined using the hotspot anqp-venue-name-profile command.

l

Domain Name: Defined using the hotspot anqp-domain-name-profile command.

l

Network Authentication Type: Define using the hotspot anqp-nwk-auth-profile command.

l

Roaming Consortium List: Defined using the hotspot anqp-roam-cons-profile command.

l

NAI Realm: Defined using the hotspot anqp-nai-realm-profile command.

l

Cellular Network Data: Defined using the hotspot anqp-3gpp-nwk-profile command.

l

l

Operator Friendly Name: Defined using the hotspot h2qp-operator-friendly-name-profile command.

l

WAN Metrics: Defined using the hotspot h2qp-wan-metrics-profile command.

Roaming Consortium OIs
Organization Identifiers (OIs) are assigned to service providers when they register with the IEEE registration
authority. You can specify the OI for the hotspot’s service provider in the ANQP Roaming Consortium profile using
the hotspot anqp-roam-cons-profile command. This Hotspot profile also allows you to define and send up to three
additional roaming consortium OIs for the service provider’s top three roaming partners. To send this additional data
to clients, you must specify the number of roaming consortium elements a client can query using the addtl-roamcons-ois <1-3> parameter, then define those elements using the following parameters:
l

roam-cons-oi-1 and roam-cons-len 1

l

roam-cons-oi-2 and roam-cons-len 2

118 | hotspot hs-profile

Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.4.0.2-4.1 | CLI Reference Guide

l

roam-cons-oi-3 and roam-cons-len 3

The configurable values for each additional OI include the Organization Identifier itself, the OI length, and the venue
group and venue type associated with those OIs.

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to configure Intrusion Detection System (IDS) detection and protection policies. The IDS feature
monitors the network for the presence of unauthorized W-IAPs and clients and enables you to detect rogue APs,
interfering APs, and other devices that can potentially disrupt network operations. It also logs information about the
unauthorized W-IAPs and clients, and generates reports based on the logged information.
Wireless Intrusion Protection (WIP) offers a wide selection of intrusion detection and protection features to protect
the network against wireless threats. Like most other security-related features of the Dell network, the WIP can be
configured on the W-IAP.
You can configure the following policies:
l

Infrastructure Detection Policies— Specifies the policy for detecting wireless attacks on access points

l

Infrastructure Protection Policies— Specifies the policy for protecting access points from wireless attacks.

l

Client Protection Policies— Specifies the policy for protecting clients from wireless attacks.

l

Containment Methods— Prevents unauthorized stations from connecting to your Instant network.

Each of these options contains several default levels that enable different sets of policies. An administrator can
customize enable or disable these options accordingly. The following levels of detection can be configured:
l

Removes the configuration

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to configure inbound firewall rules for the inbound traffic coming through the uplink ports of a WIAP. The rules defined for the inbound traffic are applied if the destination is not a user connected to the W-IAP. If the
destination already has a user role assigned, the user role overrides the actions or options specified in inbound
firewall configuration. However, if a deny rule is defined for the inbound traffic, it is applied irrespective of the
destination and user role. Unlike the ACL rules in a WLAN SSID or wired profile, the inbound firewall rules can be
configured based on the source subnet.
For all subnets, a deny rule is created by default as the last rule. If at least one rule is configured, the deny all rule is
applied to the upstream traffic by default.
Management access to the AP is allowed irrespective of the inbound firewall rule. For more information on
configuring restricted management access, see restricted-mgmt-access.
The inbound firewall is not applied to traffic coming through GRE tunnel.

per DHCP branch.
NOTE: The client count configured for a
branch determines the use of IP
addresses from the IP address range
defined for a DHCP scope. For
example, if 20 IP addresses are
available in an IP address range
configured for a DHCP scope and a
client count of 9 is configured, only a
few IP addresses (in this example, 9)
from this range will be used and

scope.

—

—

dhcp-relay

Enables the W-IAPs to intercept the
broadcast packets and relay DHCP
requests directly to corporate network.

—

—

The DHCP relay is enabled for the
centralized DHCP scopes to reduce
network traffic caused by the
broadcasting of DHCP requests to the
corporate network. With a centralized
DHCP scope, the clients in the branch
are in the same subnet as clients in the
corporate network. Normally the DHCP
request goes through the VPN tunnel
and is broadcast into the corporate
network. This feature allows it to
succeed without requiring to broadcast
and thus reduces the network traffic.

dhcp-server 

Defines the IP address of the corporate
DHCP server for DHCP request relay.

—

—

disable-splittunnel

Disables split tunnel functionality for
Centralized L2 subnets.
Split tunneling allows a VPN user to
access a public network and a local
LAN or WAN network at the same time
through the same physical network
connection.
When split-tunnel is disabled, all the
traffic including the corporate and
Internet traffic is tunneled irrespective of
the routing profile specifications. If the
GRE tunnel is down and when the
corporate network is not reachable, the
client traffic is dropped.

the size of the subnet, the IP addresses
that come before or after the IP address
value specified in this field are
excluded.
ip-range 


Defines a range of IP addresses to use
in the distributed,l2 and distributed,l3
DHCP scopes. You can configure a
range of DHCP IP addresses used in
the branches and the number of client
addresses allowed per branch. You can
also specify the IP addresses that must
be excluded from those assigned to
clients, so that they are assigned
statically. You can configure up to four
different ranges of IP addresses
l

l

For Distributed,L2 mode, ensure
that all IP ranges are in the same
subnet as the default router. On
specifying the IP address ranges, a
subnet validation is performed to
ensure that the specified ranges of
IP address are in the same subnet
as the default router and subnet
mask. The configured IP range is
divided into blocks based on the
configured client count.
For Distributed,L3 mode, you can
configure any discontiguous IP
ranges. The configured IP range is
divided into multiple IP subnets that
are sufficient to accommodate the
configured client count.

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to configure the DHCP address assignment for the branches connected to the corporate network
through VPN. You can configure the following types of DHCP profiles.
l

Distributed, L2 — In this mode, the Virtual Controller acts as the DHCP server, but the default gateway is in the
data center. Based on the number of clients specified for each branch, the range of IP addresses is divided.
Based on the IP address range and client count configuration, the DHCP server in the Virtual Controller controls a
scope that is a subset of the complete IP Address range for the subnet distributed across all the branches. This
DHCP Assignment mode is used with the L2 forwarding mode.

l

Distributed, L3 — In this mode, the Virtual Controller acts as the DHCP server and the default gateway. Based
on the number of clients specified for each branch, the range of IP addresses is divided. Based on the IP address
range and client count configuration, the DHCP server in the Virtual Controller is configured with a unique subnet
and a corresponding scope.

l

Local — In this mode, the Virtual Controller acts as both the DHCP Server and the default gateway. The
configured subnet and the corresponding DHCP scope are independent of subnets configured in other W-IAP
clusters. The Virtual Controller assigns an IP address from a local subnet and forwards traffic to both corporate
and non-corporate destinations. The network address is translated appropriately and the packet is forwarded
through the IPSec tunnel or through the uplink. This DHCP assignment mode is used for the NAT forwarding
mode.

l

Local, L3— In this mode, the Virtual Controller acts as a DHCP server and the gateway, and assigns an IP
address from the local subnet. The W-IAP routes the packets sent by clients on its uplink. This mode does not
provide corporate access through the IPsec tunnel. This DHCP assignment mode is used with the L3 forwarding
mode.

l

Centralized, L2—When a Centralized, L2 DHCP scope is configured, the Virtual Controller bridges the DHCP
traffic to the controller over the VPN/GRE tunnel. The IP address is obtained from the DHCP server behind the

140 | ip dhcp

Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.4.0.2-4.1 | CLI Reference Guide

controller serving the VLAN/GRE of the client. This DHCP assignment mode also allows you to add the DHCP
option 82 to the DHCP traffic forwarded to the controller.
l

Centralized, L3—For Centralized, L3 clients, the Virtual Controller acts as a DHCP relay agent that forwards the
DHCP traffic to the DHCP server located either in the corporate or local network. The centralized L3 VLAN IP is
used as the source IP. The IP address is obtained from the DHCP server.

Example
The following example configures a distributed,l2 DHCP scope:
(Instant AP)(config)# ip dhcp corpNetwork1
(Instant AP)(DHCP Profile"corpNetwork1")# ip dhcp server-type distributed,l2
(Instant AP)(DHCP Profile"corpNetwork1")# server-vlan 1

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to configure a DHCP pool. The DHCP server is a built-in server, used for networks in which
clients are assigned IP address by the Virtual Controller. You can customize the DHCP pool subnet and address
range to provide simultaneous access to more number of clients. The pool can support up to 2048 addresses. The
default size of the IP address pool is 512. When a W-IAP receives a DHCP request from a client, it examines the
origin of the request to determine if it a response must be sent. If the IP address of the VLAN matches a configured
DHCP pool, the W-IAP answers the request.

In the typical deployment scenario, all the APs
are configured in one subnet and all the
clients in another subnet.
You can also deploy APs across different
subnets, in which case the APs in each
subnet will form a cluster with its own Virtual
Controller IP address. To allow clients to roam
seamlessly among all the APs, the Virtual
Controller IP for each of the foreign subnets
must be configured for each W-IAP cluster.

Description
This command enables Mobility Access Switch integration on a W-IAP.

Syntax
Parameter

Description

mas-integration

Enables you to integrate the W-IAP with a Mobility Access Switch.

no…

Removes the configuration.

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to integrate Mobility Access Switch with a W-IAP.
You can integrate a W-IAP with a Mobility Access Switch by connecting it directly to the switch port. The following
Mobility Access Switch integration features can be applied while integrating with a W-IAP:
l

Rogue AP containment—When a rogue AP is detected by a W-IAP, it sends the MAC Address of the rogue AP
to the Mobility Access Switch. The Mobility Access Switch blacklists the MAC address of the rogue AP and
turns off the PoE on the port.

l

PoE prioritization— When a W-IAP is connected directly into the Mobility Access Switch port, the Mobility
Access Switch port increases the PoE priority of the port. This is done only if the PoE priority is set by default in
the Mobility Access Switch.

The PoE Prioritization and Rogue AP Containment features is available for ArubaOS 7.2 release on Dell Mobility
Access Switches.
l

GVRP Integration—Configuring GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) enables the switch to dynamically
register or de-register VLAN information received from a GVRP applicant such as a W-IAP. GVRP also enables
the switch to propagate the registered VLAN information to the neighboring switches in the network.

The associated static VLANs in the wired and wireless profiles are propagated to the upstream Mobility Access
Switch using GVRP messages.
When a W-IAP is integrated with a Mobility Access Switch, the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is enabled.
Using this protocol, the W-IAPs instruct the Mobility Access Switch to turn off the ports where rogue APs are
connected, perform actions such as increasing the PoE priority, and configure the VLANs on the ports to which the
W-IAPs are connected.

Example
The following example enables Mobility Access Switch integration for a W-IAP:
(Instant AP)(config)# mas-integration
(Instant AP)(config# end
(Instant AP)# commit apply

mesh
mesh

Description
This command sets up mesh network on a W-IAP.

Syntax
Parameter

Description

mesh

Enables mesh network on the W-IAP.

no…

Removes the configuration.

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to set up mesh network on a W-IAP. Mesh network requires at least one valid uplink (wired or 3G)
connection. Any provisioned W-IAP that has a valid uplink (wired or 3G) functions as a mesh portal, and the W-IAP
without an Ethernet link functions as a mesh point. The mesh portal can also act as a Virtual Controller. A Mesh
portal (MPP) uses its uplink connection to reach the Virtual Controller, a mesh point, or establishes an all wireless
path to the mesh portal. Mesh portals and mesh points are also known as mesh nodes, a generic term used to
describe W-IAPs configured for mesh.
Mesh W-IAPs detect the environment when they boot up, locate and associate with their nearest neighbor, to
determine the best path to the mesh portal.
Instant mesh functionality is supported only on dual radio W-IAPs only. On dual-radio W-IAPs, the 5 GHz radio is
always used for both mesh-backhaul and client traffic, while the 2.4 GHz radio is always used for client traffic.
Mesh service is automatically enabled on 802.11a band for dual-radio W-IAP only, and this is not configurable.

The mesh network must be provisioned for the first time by plugging into the wired network. After that, mesh works
on W-IAP ROWs like any other regulatory domain.

Example
The following example enables mesh network on a W-IAP:
(Instant AP)(config)# mesh
(Instant AP)(config)# end

Description
This command displays the list of clients for which the channel allocation is refused based on the client match
configuration parameters.

Syntax
Parameter

Description



Allows you to filter the output based the ID number of the radio (for example, 0 or
1).

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to view the list of clients for which client match actions are refused. When the client match
feature is enabled on a W-IAP, the W-IAP measures the RF health of its associated clients. If spectrum load
balancing is triggered and a client's Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) is or less than 20 dB, clients are
moved from one AP to another for better performance and client experience.

Parameter

Description

MAC

MAC address of the mesh node.

Portal

By default, this column displays the BSSID of the mesh point. If you include the
optional names parameter, this column will display AP names, if available. The
AP names will include [p] (parent), or [c] (child) suffixes to indicate the role of the
mesh BSSID.

Channel

Number of a radio channel used by the AP.

Age

Number of seconds elapsed since the AP heard from the neighbor.

Hops

Indicates the number of hops it takes traffic from the mesh node to get to the mesh
portal. The mesh portal advertises a hop count of 0, while all other mesh nodes
advertise a cumulative count based on the parent mesh node.

Cost

A relative measure of the quality of the path from the AP to the controller. A lower
number indicates a better quality path, where a higher number indicates a less
favorable path (For example, a path which may be longer or more congested
than a path with a lower value.) For a mesh point, the path cost is the sum of the
(parent path cost) + (the parent node cost) + (the link cost).

Relation

Shows the relationship between the specified AP and the AP on the neighbor list

show walled-garden
show walled-garden

Description
This command displays the domain names and websites that are blacklisted or whitelisted by a W-IAP.

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to view the walled garden configuration details for a W-IAP. A walled garden typically controls
access to Web content and services. The Walled garden access is required when an external captive portal is used.
For example, a hotel environment where the unauthenticated users are allowed to navigate to a designated login
page (for example, a hotel website) and all its contents.
The users who do not sign up for the Internet service can view the “allowed” websites (typically hotel property
websites). The website names must be DNS-based and support the option to define wildcards. This works for client
devices with or without HTTP proxy settings.
When a user attempts to navigate to other websites, which are not in the whitelist of the walled garden profile, the
user is redirected to the login page. In addition, a blacklisted walled garden profile can also be configured to explicitly
block the unauthenticated users from accessing some websites.

Example
The following example shows the output of show walled-garden command:
White List
---------Domain Name
----------example.com

to be prioritized, specify the
interface port number.

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to set preferences for enforcing uplinks or enabling preemption and to configure uplink
switchover.

Enforcing uplinks
The following configuration conditions apply to the uplink enforcement:
l

When an uplink is enforced, the W-IAP uses the specified uplink regardless of uplink preemption configuration
and the current uplink status.

l

When an uplink is enforced and multiple Ethernet ports are configured and uplink is enabled on the wired profiles,
the W-IAP tries to find an alternate Ethernet link based on the priority configured.

l

When no uplink is enforced and preemption is not enabled, and if the current uplink fails, the W-IAP tries to find an
available uplink based on the priority configured.

Uplink Preemption
When no uplink is enforced and preemption is enabled, and if the current uplink fails, the W-IAP tries to find an
available uplink based on in the priority configured. If current uplink is active, the W-IAP periodically tries to use a
higher priority uplink and switches to the higher priority uplink even if the current uplink is active.

Uplink Priority
When uplink priority is configured, the W-IAP tries to get a higher priority link every ten minutes even if the current
uplink is up. This does not affect the current uplink connection. If the higher uplink is usable, the W-IAP switches
over to that uplink. Preemption is enabled by default.

506 | uplink

Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.4.0.2-4.1 | CLI Reference Guide

Uplink Switchover
The default priority for uplink switchover is Ethernet and then 3G/4G. The W-IAP has the ability to switch to the lower
priority uplink if the current uplink is down.
Uplink Switching based on VPN Status
Instant supports switching uplinks based on the VPN status when deploying mixed uplinks (Eth0, 3G/4G,Wi-Fi).
When VPN is used with multiple backhaul options, the W-IAP switches to an uplink connection based on the VPN
connection status instead of only using Eth0, the physical backhaul link.
The following configuration conditions apply to uplink switching:
l

If the current uplink is Eth0 and the VPN connection is down, the W-IAP will retry to connect to VPN. This retry
time depends on the configuration of primary/backup and fast-failover for VPN. If all the possibilities fail, then the
W-IAP waits for a vpn-failover-timeout and then a different u plink (3G,Wi-Fi) is selected.

l

If the current uplink is 3G or Wi-Fi, and Eth0 has a physical link, the W-IAP periodically suspends user traffic to
try and connect to the VPN on the Eth0. If the W-IAP succeeds, then the W-IAP switches to Eth0. If the W-IAP
does not succeed, then the W-IAP restores the VPN connection to the current uplink.

Switching Uplinks Based on Internet Availability
When the uplink switchover based on Internet availability is enabled, the W-IAP continuously sends ICMP packets
to some well-known Internet servers. If the request is timed out due to a bad uplink connection or uplink interface
failure, and the public Internet is not reachable from the current uplink, the W-IAP switches to a different connection.

Example
The following example configures uplink priority:
(Instant AP)(uplink)# uplink-priority ethernet port 0 1
(Instant AP)(uplink)# end
(Instant AP)# commit apply

Usage Guidelines
The Instant user database consists of a list of guest and employee users. Addition of a user involves specifying a
login credentials for a user. The login credentials for these users are provided outside the Instant system.
A guest user can be a visitor who is temporarily using the enterprise network to access the Internet. However, if you
do not want to allow access to the internal network and the Intranet, you can segregate the guest traffic from the
enterprise traffic by creating a guest WLAN and specifying the required authentication, encryption, and access rules.
An employee user is the employee who is using the enterprise network for official tasks. You can create Employee
WLANs, specify the required authentication, encryption and access rules and allow the employees to use the
enterprise network.
The user database is also used when a W-IAP is configured as an internal RADIUS server. The local user database
of APs can support up to 512 user entries except W-IAP-9x supports only 256 user entries. If there are already 512
users, W-IAP-9x will not be able to join the cluster.

Example
The following example configures an employee user for a W-IAP:
(Instant AP)(config)# user user1 password123 radius
(Instant AP)(config)# end

bandwidth-limit {downstream
| upstream |
peruser {downstream
| upstream }}

Assign bandwidth contracts to user
roles.
The administrator can assign a
bandwidth contract configured in Kbps
to upstream (client to the W-IAP) or
downstream (W-IAP to clients) traffic for
a user role.
If you want to assign a bandwidth
contract specific for each user, you can
run the command with peruser
parameter.
The bandwidth contract will not be
applicable to the user traffic on the
bridged out (same subnet)
destinations.
NOTE: In the earlier releases,
bandwidth contract could be assigned
per SSID. In the current release, the
bandwidth contract can also be
assigned per SSID user. If the
bandwidth contract is assigned for an
SSID in Instant 6.2.1.0-3.4.0.0 image
and when the W-IAP is upgraded to
6.3.1.1-4.0 release version, the
bandwidth configuration per SSID will
be treated as per-user downstream
bandwidth contract for that SSID.

—

—

—

—

The 802.11k protocol enables WIAPs and clients to dynamically

mechanism minimizes the
delay in roaming when a client
transitions from one BSS to
another within the
same cluster.
Fast BSS Transition is operational
only if the wireless client supports
802.11r standard. If the client does
support 802.11r standard, it falls
back to normal WPA2
authentication method.

set-role-machine-auth



Configures a machine
authentication rule.

—

—

You can assign different rights to
clients based on whether their
hardware device supports
machine authentication.
Machine authentication is only
supported on Windows devices, so
this can be used to distinguish
between Windows devices and
other devices such as iPads.

set-role-pre-auth 

Configures a pre-authentication
role to allow some access to the
guest users before the client
authentication.

—

—

set-role-unrestricted

operator is available only if the
mac-address-and-dhcpoptions attribute is selected in
the Attribute drop-down.
termination

Configures the EAP portion of
802.1X authentication on the WIAP, instead of the RADIUS server.
When enabled, this command
reduces network traffic to the
external RADIUS server by
terminating the authorization
protocol on the W-IAP. By default,
for 802.1X authorization, the client
conducts an EAP exchange with
the RADIUS server, and the W-IAP
acts as a relay for this exchange.
The W-IAP by itself acts as an
authentication server and
terminates the outer layers of the
EAP protocol, only relaying the
innermost layer to the external
RADIUS server.

type {employee|voice|guest}

Configures the type of network
such as employee, voice, guest
network.

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to configure a walled garden profile. A walled garden access is required when an external captive
portal is used. For example, a hotel environment where the unauthenticated users are allowed to navigate to a
designated login page (for example, a hotel website) and all its contents.
The users who do not sign up for the Internet service can view the “allowed” websites (typically hotel property
websites). The website names must be DNS-based and support the option to define wildcards. This works for client
devices with or without HTTP proxy settings.
When a user attempts to navigate to other websites not in the whitelist of the walled garden profile, the user is
redirected to the login page. Similarly, a blacklisted walled garden profile blocks the users from accessing some
websites.

802.11

An evolving family of specifications for wireless LANs developed by a
working group of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE). 802.11 standards use the Ethernet protocol and CSMA/CA (carrier
sense multiple access with collision avoidance) for path sharing.

802.11a

Provides specifications for wireless systems. Networks using 802.11a
operate at radio frequencies in the 5GHz band. The specification uses a
modulation scheme known as orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing
(OFDM) that is especially well suited to use in office settings. The
maximum data transfer rate is 54 Mbps.

802.11b

WLAN standard often called Wi-Fi; backward compatible with 802.11.
Instead of the phase-shift keying (PSK) modulation method historically
used in 802.11 standards, 802.11b uses complementary code keying
(CCK), which allows higher data speeds and is less susceptible to
multipath-propagation interference. 802.11b operates in the 2.4 GHz band
and the maximum data transfer rate is 11 Mbps.

802.11g

Offers transmission over relatively short distances at up to 54 Mbps,
compared with the 11 Mbps theoretical maximum of 802.11b. 802.11g
operates in the 2.4 GHz band and employs orthogonal frequency division
multiplexing (OFDM), the modulation scheme used in 802.11a, to obtain
higher data speed. Computers or terminals set up for 802.11g can fall
back to speeds of 11 Mbps, so that 802.11b and 802.11g devices can be
compatible within a single network.

802.11n

Wireless networking standard to improve network throughput over the two
previous standards 802.11a and 802.11g with a significant increase in the
maximum raw data rate from 54 Mbps to 600 Mbps with the use of four
spatial streams at a channel width of 40 MHz. 802.11n operates in the 2.4
and 5.0 bands.

Table 12: List of Terms
Term

Definition

AP

An access point (AP) connects users to other users within the network and
also can serve as the point of interconnection between the WLAN and a
fixed wire network. The number of access points a WLAN needs is
determined by the number of users and the size of the network.

access point mapping

The act of locating and possibly exploiting connections to WLANs while
driving around a city or elsewhere. To do war driving, you need a vehicle,
a computer (which can be a laptop), a wireless Ethernet card set to work in
promiscuous mode, and some kind of an antenna which can be mounted
on top of or positioned inside the car. Because a WLAN may have a range
that extends beyond an office building, an outside user may be able to
intrude into the network, obtain a free Internet connection, and possibly
gain access to company records and other resources.

ad-hoc network

A LAN or other small network, especially one with wireless or temporary
plug-in connections, in which some of the network devices are part of the
network only for the duration of a communications session or, in the case
of mobile or portable devices, while in some close proximity to the rest of
the network.

band

A specified range of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation.

DHCP

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is an auto-configuration
protocol used on IP networks. Computers or any network peripherals that
are connected to IP networks must be configured, before they can
communicate with other computers on the network. DHCP allows a
computer to be configured automatically, eliminating the need for a
network administrator. DHCP also provides a central database to
keep track of computers connected to the network. This database helps in
preventing any two computers from being configured with the same IP
address.

DNS Server

A Domain Name System (DNS) server functions as a phonebook for the
Internet and Internet users. It converts human readable computer
hostnames into IP addresses and vice-versa.
A DNS server stores several records for a domain name such as an
address 'A' record, name server (NS), and mail exchanger (MX) records.
The Address 'A' record is the most important record that is stored in a DNS
server, because it provides the required IP address for a network
peripheral or element.

DST

Daylight saving time (DST), also known as summer time, is the practice of
advancing clocks, so that evenings have more daylight and mornings
have less. Typically clocks are adjusted forward one hour near the start of
spring and are adjusted backward in autumn.

EAP

Extensible authentication protocol (EAP) refers to the authentication
protocol in wireless networks that expands on methods used by the pointto-point protocol (PPP), a protocol often used when connecting a
computer to the Internet. EAP can support multiple authentication
mechanisms, such as token cards, smart cards, certificates, one-time
passwords, and public key encryption authentication.

Term

Definition

fixed wireless

Wireless devices or systems in fixed locations such as homes and offices.
Fixed wireless devices usually derive their electrical power from the utility
mains, unlike mobile wireless or portable wireless which tend to be
battery-powered. Although mobile and portable systems can be used in
fixed locations, efficiency and bandwidth are compromised compared with
fixed systems.

frequency allocation

Use of radio frequency spectrum regulated by governments.

frequency spectrum

Part of the electromagnetic spectrum.

hotspot

A WLAN node that provides Internet connection and virtual private
network (VPN) access from a given location. A business traveler, for
example, with a laptop equipped for Wi-Fi can look up a local hot spot,
contact it, and get connected through its network to reach the Internet and
their own company remotely with a secure connection. Increasingly, public
places, such as airports, hotels, and coffee shops are providing free
wireless access for customers.

IEEE 802.11 standards

The IEEE 802.11 is a set of standards that are categorized based on the
radio wave frequency and the data transfer rate.

POE

Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a method of delivering power on the same
physical Ethernet wire used for data communication. Power for devices is
provided in one of the following two ways:
l Endspan— The switch that an AP is connected for power supply.
l Midspan— A device can sit between the switch and APs
The choice of endspan or midspan depends on the capabilities of the
switch to which the W-IAP is connected. Typically if a switch is in place
and does not support PoE, midspan power injectors are used.

PPPoE

Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) is a method of connecting
to the Internet typically used with DSL services where the client connects
to the DSL modem.

QoS

Quality of Service (QoS) refers to the capability of a network to provide
better service to a specific network traffic over various technologies.

RF

Radio Frequency (RF) refers to the portion of electromagnetic spectrum in
which electromagnetic waves are generated by feeding alternating current
to an antenna.

TACACS

Family of protocols that handle remote authentication and related services
for network access control through a centralized server.

TACACS+

Derived from TACACS but an entirely new and separate protocol to
handle AAA services. TACACS+ uses TCP and is not compatible with
TACACS. Because it encrypts password, username, authorization, and
accounting, it is less vulnerable than RADIUS.

VPN

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) network that uses a public
telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote
offices or individual users with secure access to their organization's
network. A VPN ensures privacy through security procedures and
tunneling protocols such as the Layer Two Tunneling Protocol ( L2TP ).
Data is encrypted at the sending end and decrypted at the receiving end.

W-CDMA

Officially known as IMT-2000 direct spread; ITU standard derived from
Code-Division Multiple Access (CDMA). Wideband code-division multiple
access (W-CDMA) is a third-generation (3G) mobile wireless technology
that promises much higher data speeds to mobile and portable wireless
devices than commonly offered in today's market.

Wi-Fi

A term for certain types of WLANs. Wi-Fi can apply to products that use
any 802.11 standard. Wi-Fi has gained acceptance in many businesses,
agencies, schools, and homes as an alternative to a wired LAN. Many
airports, hotels, and fast-food facilities offer public access to Wi-Fi
networks.

WEP

Wired equivalent privacy (WEP) is a security protocol specified in 802.11b,
designed to provide a WLAN with a level of security and privacy
comparable to what is usually expected of a wired LAN. Data encryption
protects the vulnerable wireless link between clients and access points;
once this measure has been taken, other typical LAN security
mechanisms such as password protection, end-to-end encryption, virtual
private networks (VPNs), and authentication can be put in place to ensure
privacy.

wireless

Describes telecommunications in which electromagnetic waves (rather
than some form of wire) carry the signal over part or all of the
communication path.

wireless network

In a Wireless LAN (WLAN), laptops, desktops, PDAs, and other computer
peripherals are connected to each other without any network cables.
These network elements or clients use radio signals to communicate with
each other. Wireless networks are set up based on the IEEE 802.11
standards.

WISP

Wireless ISP (WISP) refers to an internet service provider (ISP) that allows
subscribers to connect to a server at designated hot spots (access points)
using a wireless connection such as Wi-Fi. This type of ISP offers
broadband service and allows subscriber computers, called stations, to
access the Internet and the Web from anywhere within the zone of
coverage provided by the server antenna, usually a region with a radius of
several kilometers.

wireless service provider

A company that offers transmission services to users of wireless devices
through radio frequency (RF) signals rather than through end-to-end wire
communication.

WLAN

Wireless local area network (WLAN) is a local area network (LAN) that the
users access through a wireless connection.
