AIR-AP1702I-B-WLC Cisco 2504 Ceiling Mountable Wireless Refurbished

The AIR-AP1702I-B-WLC Cisco 2504 Ceiling Mountable Wireless Controller is a network device that is used to manage and control wireless access points in a network. Security is an important aspect of wireless networking, and the AIR-AP1702I-B-WLC comes equipped with a number of security features to ensure the protection of the wireless network.

Some of the security features of the AIR-AP1702I-B-WLC include:

• WPA2 Encryption - The device supports the latest WPA2 encryption standard, which is designed to provide secure wireless communications by encrypting data transmitted over the wireless network.
• Access Control - The device allows network administrators to control access to the wireless network by creating access control lists (ACLs). These ACLs can be used to restrict access to specific devices or users.
• Rogue AP Detection - The device is capable of detecting rogue access points that may have been installed by an unauthorized user, and can take appropriate actions to prevent these rogue access points from compromising the security of the wireless network.
• Guest Access - The device provides support for secure guest access, allowing guests to access the network with limited access and without compromising the security of the network.
• Firewall Protection - The device can be configured to provide firewall protection for the wireless network, helping to prevent unauthorized access and data theft.
• Intrusion Detection and Prevention - The device can detect and prevent intrusions into the wireless network, helping to protect the network from unauthorized access and data theft.
• VLAN Support - The device supports the use of Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs), which can be used to segment the network and improve security by restricting access to specific parts of the network.

The AIR-AP1702I-B-WLC is a Cisco wireless access point that is designed to work with a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) such as the Cisco 2504. The WLC provides centralized management and control for multiple access points, allowing network administrators to easily configure, monitor, and troubleshoot their wireless networks.

License management is an important aspect of the Cisco Wireless Controller, as it determines the number of access points that can be connected to the controller. The Cisco 2504 WLC supports up to 50 access points, and the number of access points that can be connected to the controller is determined by the type of license that is installed on the WLC.

There are two types of licenses that can be used with the Cisco 2504 WLC:

• Permanent licenses: These are perpetual licenses that do not expire and provide support for a fixed number of access points. Once a permanent license is installed on the WLC, it remains valid for the life of the controller.
• Evaluation licenses: These are temporary licenses that are provided for a limited time and enable network administrators to test the functionality of the WLC with a specific number of access points. Evaluation licenses typically expire after 60 days.

To manage licenses on the Cisco 2504 WLC, network administrators can use the web-based interface of the controller. The interface allows administrators to view information about the licenses that are currently installed, including the license type, the number of access points that are supported, and the expiration date (if applicable). Additionally, administrators can install and activate new licenses, renew existing licenses, or deactivate licenses that are no longer needed.

The AIR-AP1702I-B-WLC is a wireless access point that can be controlled by the Cisco 2504 wireless LAN controller. It is designed to be ceiling mounted and provides reliable and high-speed wireless connectivity for users.

Mesh networking is a type of wireless networking that allows access points to communicate with each other to create a network that can cover a larger area. With mesh networking, access points are not directly connected to the main network, but instead, they communicate with each other to extend the network.

To configure and troubleshoot mesh networking on the Cisco 2504 wireless LAN controller, follow these steps:

• Enable Mesh Networking on the Controller: Go to the Wireless tab in the web interface of the controller and select Mesh. Check the box that says "Enable Mesh Networking."
• Configure the Mesh Access Point: Set up the mesh access point as a regular access point and connect it to the controller.
• Add the Mesh Access Point to the Mesh Network: In the web interface of the controller, go to the Mesh tab and click on Add. Select the mesh access point from the list and click Add.
• Configure the Mesh Link: In the web interface of the controller, go to the Mesh tab and select the mesh access point. Configure the Mesh Link parameters, including the Mesh ID, Radio Mode, and Encryption.
• Troubleshoot Mesh Networking: If there are issues with the mesh network, check the signal strength and quality of the mesh link. Ensure that the mesh access points are within range of each other and that there are no obstructions. If the issue persists, check the configuration of the mesh access points and the controller.

In conclusion, the AIR-AP1702I-B-WLC Cisco 2504 Ceiling Mountable Wireless Controller can be used to configure and troubleshoot mesh networking. By following the steps outlined above, network administrators can easily set up and maintain a reliable and high-speed wireless mesh network.
