How to Create SSID/WLAN Profile and Policy Profile on Cisco C9800 Wireless Controller via CLI
To create a new SSID/WLAN profile and policy profile on the Cisco C9800 Wireless Controller via the Command Line Interface (CLI), follow the steps outlined below:
Step 1: Access the Cisco C9800 Wireless Controller CLI
Connect to the Cisco C9800 Wireless Controller using SSH or a console cable and log in with the appropriate credentials.
Step 2: Create a new WLAN Profile
Use the following commands to create a new WLAN profile with the desired settings:
config wlan create <WLAN ID> <WLAN Name> <SSID>
config wlan ssid-profile <WLAN ID> security wpa wpa2 ciphers aes
config wlan security wpa akm 802.1x
config wlan security wpa wpa2 ciphers aes
config wlan security wpa wpa2 enable
config wlan security wpa wpa2 802.1x <RADIUS Server ID>
config wlan enable <WLAN ID>
Replace <WLAN ID>
, <WLAN Name>
, <SSID>
, and <RADIUS Server ID>
with the appropriate values for your network.
Step 3: Create a new Policy Profile
Use the following commands to create a new Policy Profile with the desired settings:
config policy profile create <Policy Profile Name>
config policy profile ssid <Policy Profile Name> add <WLAN ID>
config policy profile user <Policy Profile Name> add <User Role ID>
Replace <Policy Profile Name>
, <WLAN ID>
, and <User Role ID>
with the relevant values for your network configuration.
Step 4: Apply the Policy Profile to an Interface
Apply the created Policy Profile to a specific interface using the following command:
config interface policy-profile <Interface Name> <Policy Profile Name>
Replace <Interface Name>
with the name of the interface to which the Policy Profile should be applied.
Step 5: Verify the Configuration
Verify the configuration by checking the WLAN and Policy Profile settings using the following commands:
show wlan summary
show policy profile <Policy Profile Name>
This will display the configured WLAN and Policy Profile settings for verification.
By following these steps and using the provided CLI commands, you can create a new SSID/WLAN profile and policy profile on the Cisco C9800 Wireless Controller efficiently and effectively.
