WEBVTT

1
00:00.000 --> 00:03.360
Alright, we're going to wrap up here by taking a look at where we configure

2
00:03.360 --> 00:04.200
certain elements

3
00:04.200 --> 00:08.470
that we took a look at with iOS Xe and where we configure those with arrow s,

4
00:08.470 --> 00:08.880
especially

5
00:08.880 --> 00:13.000
things like our mobility group and our f group and so on and so forth.

6
00:13.000 --> 00:14.720
So we'll start with mobility here.

7
00:14.720 --> 00:18.060
We're going to go over to controller and here on the general tab, we're going

8
00:18.060 --> 00:18.560
to find that

9
00:18.560 --> 00:22.320
we're part of this default mobility domain name.

10
00:22.320 --> 00:26.850
Now, interestingly, Cisco's calling this the mobility domain name, but this is

11
00:26.850 --> 00:27.440
actually

12
00:27.440 --> 00:29.160
the mobility group.

13
00:29.160 --> 00:33.110
So if I want to change the mobility group name from home to home one or
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

13
00:29.160 --> 00:33.110
So if I want to change the mobility group name from home to home one or

14
00:33.110 --> 00:34.160
something like

15
00:34.160 --> 00:35.440
that, I could do that.

16
00:35.440 --> 00:39.960
I could click apply here and then we'll see where that name changes.

17
00:39.960 --> 00:44.260
Specifically, if I look over here on the left under mobility management, I go

18
00:44.260 --> 00:44.920
to mobility

19
00:44.920 --> 00:49.430
groups and we'll see now that my local mobility group is home one, I go back to

20
00:49.430 --> 00:50.200
general, put

21
00:50.200 --> 00:54.900
it back to home, apply mobility groups, and now we're back to being part of the

22
00:54.900 --> 00:56.160
home group.

23
00:56.160 --> 00:59.360
Importantly, here's where we add all of our mobility group peers.

24
00:59.360 --> 01:01.320
Remember, we have to add these individually.
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

24
00:59.360 --> 01:01.320
Remember, we have to add these individually.

25
01:01.320 --> 01:02.800
There's two ways we can add them.

26
01:02.800 --> 01:06.120
I can click new and add the member IP and MAC address.

27
01:06.120 --> 01:11.300
So something like 1.2.3.4 and the MAC address could be, I don't know, 0, 0, 0,

28
01:11.300 --> 01:11.800
0.

29
01:11.800 --> 01:14.520
You got to add in the whole thing here.

30
01:14.520 --> 01:16.280
There we go.

31
01:16.280 --> 01:17.440
There's a MAC address.

32
01:17.440 --> 01:20.240
As part of the same group name, click apply and there we go.

33
01:20.240 --> 01:24.020
It is listed now as a peer and it's trying to reach out, find the control and

34
01:24.020 --> 01:24.640
data path

35
01:24.640 --> 01:27.720
or down because that peer doesn't actually exist.

36
01:27.720 --> 01:31.100
The other thing we can do, whoops, I have to scroll over now, is to click this
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

36
01:27.720 --> 01:31.100
The other thing we can do, whoops, I have to scroll over now, is to click this

37
01:31.100 --> 01:31.640
edit all

38
01:31.640 --> 01:32.640
button.

39
01:32.640 --> 01:37.230
If I do that, it turns it into more or less a text document and I could paste

40
01:37.230 --> 01:37.920
in all of

41
01:37.920 --> 01:41.800
my mobility group peers, maybe in a much more efficient fashion.

42
01:41.800 --> 01:43.080
So this is just an option we have.

43
01:43.080 --> 01:46.440
We can also edit these if we had a typo with one of the MAC addresses.

44
01:46.440 --> 01:52.080
I could just come in here rather than removing it and trying to re-add it.

45
01:52.080 --> 01:55.720
As well, we also have the concept of multi-cast messaging in here.

46
01:55.720 --> 01:59.560
We mentioned that mobility groups as they grow should be converted over to

47
01:59.560 --> 02:00.240
multi-cast
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

47
01:59.560 --> 02:00.240
multi-cast

48
02:00.240 --> 02:01.240
communication.

49
02:01.240 --> 02:06.220
I can enable it here, enter the group address, whatever maybe 239.something

50
02:06.220 --> 02:06.960
that I'm using

51
02:06.960 --> 02:09.600
for the sake of multi-cast messaging.

52
02:09.600 --> 02:13.120
So that is our multi- or our mobility groups.

53
02:13.120 --> 02:16.360
Next is our, has to do with RF configurations.

54
02:16.360 --> 02:20.330
So coming back to the general tab here, we do see that we have an RF group name

55
02:20.330 --> 02:20.640
.

56
02:20.640 --> 02:25.190
So remember, RF groups are supposed to define when we have controllers that

57
02:25.190 --> 02:26.120
should expect

58
02:26.120 --> 02:29.280
to work together from an RF perspective.

59
02:29.280 --> 02:33.070
It makes it so that we can work together to manage our radio resource
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

59
02:29.280 --> 02:33.070
It makes it so that we can work together to manage our radio resource

60
02:33.070 --> 02:33.720
management, our

61
02:33.720 --> 02:34.960
RRM.

62
02:34.960 --> 02:39.120
And so this is also called home, just something that is created during setup.

63
02:39.120 --> 02:41.600
We can change it here if we so desire.

64
02:41.600 --> 02:45.030
Meanwhile I can go over to the wireless tab and this is where most of our RF

65
02:45.030 --> 02:45.840
configuration

66
02:45.840 --> 02:47.080
is done.

67
02:47.080 --> 02:52.480
And so importantly, notice that we've got 802.11a and an AC here, as well as BG

68
02:52.480 --> 02:54.040
and N. If I expand

69
02:54.040 --> 02:58.040
one of these at the very top of both of them, by the way, will be the network

70
02:58.040 --> 02:58.720
option.

71
02:58.720 --> 03:01.240
If I click this, I can see whether or not it's enabled.
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

71
02:58.720 --> 03:01.240
If I click this, I can see whether or not it's enabled.

72
03:01.240 --> 03:04.840
Now be careful here because again, it's a little bit legacy.

73
03:04.840 --> 03:09.220
We're talking about this being the five gigahertz side of things versus the 2.4

74
03:09.220 --> 03:09.960
gigahertz.

75
03:09.960 --> 03:14.240
And sometimes it just refers to it at 802.11a and so on and so forth.

76
03:14.240 --> 03:17.700
Although these are a lot of 802.11a settings, for example, we have the legacy

77
03:17.700 --> 03:18.440
data rate sitting

78
03:18.440 --> 03:22.080
over here, we can disable or enable it here.

79
03:22.080 --> 03:27.040
Meanwhile if I want to do something with our, our N or AC, I can come all the

80
03:27.040 --> 03:27.840
way down here

81
03:27.840 --> 03:28.920
to high throughput.

82
03:28.920 --> 03:34.500
And this is where we see an AC enablement, as well as all the individual MCS
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

82
03:28.920 --> 03:34.500
And this is where we see an AC enablement, as well as all the individual MCS

83
03:34.500 --> 03:35.440
indices.

84
03:35.440 --> 03:38.960
So that would be also true for BGN network.

85
03:38.960 --> 03:44.600
This is more of a BG concept, whereas high throughput here would be 802.11N,

86
03:44.600 --> 03:44.680
keeping

87
03:44.680 --> 03:50.720
in mind that 802.11AC didn't actually support the 2.4 gigahertz band.

88
03:50.720 --> 03:53.120
Furthermore, we can see that there's RRM here.

89
03:53.120 --> 03:55.560
So RRM is split up by band.

90
03:55.560 --> 03:58.680
So again, this is referring to the five gigahertz band.

91
03:58.680 --> 04:03.750
I can look at my RF grouping here is where we can set, again, whether we want
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

91
03:58.680 --> 04:03.750
I can look at my RF grouping here is where we can set, again, whether we want

92
04:03.750 --> 04:04.440
to elect

93
04:04.440 --> 04:08.690
a leader, if I want specific controllers to be the leader, I've got my transmit

94
04:08.690 --> 04:08.840
power

95
04:08.840 --> 04:13.520
control, my dynamic channel assignment options, which channels are eligible.

96
04:13.520 --> 04:17.350
I can change my coverage hold detection here or at least disable it, change the

97
04:17.350 --> 04:18.000
thresholds

98
04:18.000 --> 04:19.040
and so on and so forth.

99
04:19.040 --> 04:23.320
So we have all of the same options that we covered with iOS XE.

100
04:23.320 --> 04:27.160
And again, in AROS, a lot of them are going to be under wireless.

101
04:27.160 --> 04:29.880
Lastly, we do have the concept of the RF profile.

102
04:29.880 --> 04:32.120
Scroll up here, we see RF profiles.
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

102
04:29.880 --> 04:32.120
Scroll up here, we see RF profiles.

103
04:32.120 --> 04:38.260
A lot of our iOS XE constructs didn't exist with AROS, but hey, RF profiles did

104
04:38.260 --> 04:38.360
.

105
04:38.360 --> 04:40.360
And it's basically the same thing.

106
04:40.360 --> 04:44.800
I can click new here, create a profile name CBTN.

107
04:44.800 --> 04:49.760
And I do have to decide whether this is a five gigahertz or 2.4 gigahertz

108
04:49.760 --> 04:50.640
policy.

109
04:50.640 --> 04:54.560
But when I click apply here, I can see that I can come over to RRM.

110
04:54.560 --> 04:56.800
I can change the thresholds.

111
04:56.800 --> 05:02.370
Just like with iOS XE, this is a way that I can override whether or not, or
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

111
04:56.800 --> 05:02.370
Just like with iOS XE, this is a way that I can override whether or not, or

112
05:02.370 --> 05:03.120
like the

113
05:03.120 --> 05:05.440
global RRM settings.

114
05:05.440 --> 05:09.240
So if I want specific access points to behave differently, then I can override

115
05:09.240 --> 05:09.800
them with

116
05:09.800 --> 05:13.960
an RF profile as it relates to radio resource management.

117
05:13.960 --> 05:16.360
So for example, I'm just going to click apply here.

118
05:16.360 --> 05:18.720
I've got my RF profile.

119
05:18.720 --> 05:24.640
Now I can go over to WLANs, look at my AP group, and then click on my group.

120
05:24.640 --> 05:26.280
And we see an RF profile tab here.

121
05:26.280 --> 05:31.240
I can simply select CBTN in the 802.11a drop down.
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

121
05:26.280 --> 05:31.240
I can simply select CBTN in the 802.11a drop down.

122
05:31.240 --> 05:36.300
So again, just some things to cover as far as mobility groups and RF groups, RF

123
05:36.300 --> 05:37.040
profiles

124
05:37.040 --> 05:38.280
and so on and so forth.

125
05:38.280 --> 05:41.720
There's certainly some controller level configurations we should be aware of

126
05:41.720 --> 05:42.600
and how we go about

127
05:42.600 --> 05:44.200
doing that in AroS.
