Overview
The 4402 Cisco 4400 Series Wireless LAN Controller uses one set of two redundant front-panel
SX/LC/T SFP modules (SFP transceiver, or Small Form-factor Plug-in), and the 4404 Cisco 4400 Series
Wireless LAN Controller uses two sets of two redundant front-panel SX/LC/T SFP modules:

Startup Wizard
When an Cisco Wireless LAN Controller is powered up with a new factory operating system software
load or after being reset to factory defaults, the bootup script runs the Startup Wizard, which prompts
the installer for initial configuration. The Startup Wizard:

1000BASE-SX SFP modules provide a 1000 Mbps wired connection to a network through an
850nM (SX) fiber-optic link using an LC physical connector.
1000BASE-LX SFP modules provide a 1000 Mbps wired connection to a network through a
1300nM (LX/LH) fiber-optic link using an LC physical connector.
1000BASE-T SFP modules provide a 1000 Mbps wired connection to a network through a copper
link using an RJ-45 physical connector.
AIR-PWR-4400-AC — All Cisco 4400 series power supplies. One Cisco 4400 series power supply
can power Cisco 4400 series power supplies can power Cisco 4400 series power supplies, the Cisco
4400 series power supplies are redundant.
Ensures that the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller has a System Name, up to 32 characters.
Adds an Administrative username and password, each up to 24 characters.
Ensures that the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller can communicate with the CLI, Cisco WCS, or Web
User interfaces (either directly or indirectly) through the service port by accepting a valid IP
configuration protocol (none or DHCP), and if none, IP Address and netmask. If you do not want to
use the Service port, enter 0.0.0.0 for the IP Address and netmask.
Ensures that the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller can communicate with the network (802.11
Distribution System) through the management interface by collecting a valid static IP Address,
netmask, default router IP address, VLAN identifier, and physical port assignment.
Prompts for the IP address of the DHCP server used to supply IP addresses to clients, the Cisco
Wireless LAN Controller Management Interface, and optionally to the Service Port Interface.
Asks for the LWAPP Transport Mode, described in the
section on page
1-7.
Collects the Virtual Gateway IP Address; any fictitious, unassigned IP address (such as 1.1.1.1) to
be used by Layer 3 Security and Mobility managers.
Allows you to enter the Mobility Group (RF Group) Name.
Collects the wireless LAN 1 802.11 SSID, or Network Name.
Asks you to define whether or not clients can use static IP addresses. Yes = more convenient, but
lower security (session can be hijacked), clients can supply their own IP Address, better for devices
that cannot use DHCP. No = less convenient, higher security, clients must DHCP for an IP Address,
works well for Windows XP devices.
If you want to configure a RADIUS server from the Startup Wizard, the RADIUS server IP address,
communication port, and Secret.
Collects the Country Code.
