Establish a Wireless Network Connection (802.11)
You can create and save applications that describe the important attributes of wireless 802.11 networks
throughout your organization. After you define and save these settings, you can deploy them to centrally
managed DMPs individually or to any of your DMP groups.
Before You Begin
Do your DMPs all support wireless connectivity? Some models do not. See their datasheets on
Cisco.com.
Verify that the Broadcast SSID setting is enabled on your wireless access points. Otherwise, your
DMPs cannot connect to your WLAN and are prevented from obtaining IP addresses.
Does a security policy in your network restrict DHCP address assignments to known MAC
addresses? If so, locate the WLAN address printed on a sticker that is affixed to your DMP. Then,
share this address with your security policy administrator.
Verify that your wireless network is working correctly, is available, and you understand how it
authenticates connection requests.
Complete all steps in the “Establish a Wired Network Connection” section on page 13-5.
