Configuring a Mobility Domain for Roaming
This procedure configures multiple WX switches to
form a Mobility Domain. A Mobility Domain allows
users to seamlessly roam from one WX switch to
another. A Mobility Domain uses one seed switch.
The other switches are members.
Add the switches to the same VLAN. Users can be in
the same or different VLANs, and the user VLANs do
not need to be configured on all the switches. Users
can log on and roam the network from the seed
switch, or from any member switch, by tunnelling
through any other switch that contains their VLAN.
For simplicity, the quickstart command assigns all
users to the default VLAN.

Configuring the Seed
1
Configure WX1200-Corp as the seed:
WX1200-Corp# set mobility-domain mode seed
domain-name Corp
WX1200-Corp# set mobility-domain member 10.10.90.4
2
Verify and save the configuration changes on
WX1200-Corp.
WX1200-Corp# display config
# Configuration nvgen'd at 2005-1-09 00:42:46

Configuring a Member
1
Use the quickstart command to configure basic system
parameters on a second switch (WX1200-Corp2).
2
Configure WX1200-Corp2 as a member of the
Mobility Domain.
WX1200-Corp2# set mobility-domain mode member
seed-ip 10.10.10.4
3
Verify and save the configuration changes:
WX1200-Corp2# display config
# Configuration nvgen'd at 2007-1-09 00:42:46
