Configure Services
Overview

The services make WLAN technology possible for many enterprise businesses. Beyond mobility, these allow redundancy, availability, quality of service, and security of wireless connections. Without these, many businesses would not implement WLANs.

The Services Summary page shows whether all of the main services are currently enabled or disabled . Click any of the links to go to that page and change the configurations.

  • Telnet/SSH: Enabled or Disabled / Enabled or Disabled
  • Hot Standby: Enabled or Disabled
  • CDP: Enabled or Disabled
  • DNS: Enabled or Disabled
  • Filters: Enabled or Disabled
  • HTTP: Enabled or Disabled
  • Proxy Mobile IP: Enabled or Disabled
  • QoS: Enabled or Disabled
  • SNMP: Enabled or Disabled
  • NTP: Enabled or Disabled
  • VLAN: Enabled or Disabled

This section will cover all of the above except for Filters, SNMP, and VLANs. These will be covered in greater detail in the upcoming modules. In most cases, both the IOS GUI and IOS CLI will be explained. However some configurations such as QoS and Proxy Mobile IP are more difficult to configure using IOS CLI. Hence, the CLI will not be covered for these technologies. After configuring the technology using the GUI, the student may want to view the running-config in the CLI to gain a better understanding of the commands and command placement.
