WLC 2106 - What does a VLAN need an IP Address

Likely a rookie questions, but I'm assigning WLANs to VLANs on a 2106 WLC and when I create the VLAN I'm actually creating an interface that needs layer 3 parameters such as an IP address. Why is this, i.e. whey do I need to create a layer 3 interface vs. just creating a VLAN like I would have done on an autonomous AP?
thanks in advance,
Simon

The main purpose of the full ip address subnet and gateway information for each dynamic interface (vlan) is in order to:
1) Manage VLAN traffic.
2) Manage other communications between other controllers.
3) DHCP relay  (WLCs interface will be like the proxy for all the wireless clients)
4) Other stuff, like anchor controllers, web authentication, etc..

  • What does the DBA need to do to grant privileges so I can CREATE DIRECTORY

    Hello,
    What does the DBA need to do in order to grant privileges to:
    CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY douglas_my_files as 'C:\Documents and Settings';
    This is what SQL Navigator says:
    [1]: (Error): ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
    Thanks
    Doug

    Also, note that a directory object can only point to a directory on the database server, not on your client machine... Unless you have your own My Documents folder on the database, which would be a tad unusual, this probably won't work regardless of the permissions your DBA gives you.

  • What does my Mac need to run Access 2003 and SAM training CD

    I'm enrolled in an intro database class using Microsoft Office Access 2003 and SAM 2003 Assessment and Training CD. Both require a PC, but I have Mac Book Pro 2. Would someone please explain to a PC dummy what my Mac would need to run these two applications or if I need to (gulp) purchase a PC. Mostly likely I'll be taking additional classes in the future. Thank you.

    Welcome to the Apple Forums.
    You will need the following to Run MS Access and SAM 2003:
    1. An Intel Mac (You already have this)
    2. Leopard Operating System (You have Tiger), which contains boot camp to install Windows
    3. Windows XP or Windows Vista installation Disk (Please read the Boot Camp instructions/Guide)
    4. Microsoft Office 2003 or 2007 for Windows (which has MS Access)

  • What does an ipad need in order to connect to the internet?

    I have an an wireless internet router at home from Verzon. Can my ipad connect to the internet using that or does it need something else? What is the wifi+3G data plan? I really don't get this wifi and wifi+3G thing. Can u explain it to me?

    Nope. You should be good. Any iPad can connect to almost any WiFi network.
    WiFi is the wireless network created by wireless routers or base stations.
    All iPads support wifi.
    3G is the ability to get internet over cell towers. Like a cell phone, only data.
    The 3G data plan allows you to get data from the provider, in the US it's ATT and Verizon.

  • What does Front Row need?

    I've been wondering about this a bit. I've got a 1.2 ghz G4 iBook running OS 10.4.11.
    I've seen Front Row on other Macs, but for some reason it doesn't install on mine.
    Is the Apple Remote capability a hardware requirement? Or is there just something on the 10.4 install disk I missed?
    Thanks

    I've seen Front Row on other Macs, but for some reason it doesn't install on mine.
    Front Row wasn't part of the retail OS prior to Mac OS X 10.5, but was bundled with some Macs. You need to install Mac OS X 10.5 to get it.

  • Does my client need to have Adobe Story to review my script?

    In one of the Adobe video's, Paul Trani shows how we can share a script.  I can only presume that whoever gets the script, must have Adobe Story installed to be able to review the script. What does my client need to be able to review my script.
    Thanks,
    Kuhnen

    Partially, yes. When you share your script with your client, he/she can access it in Adobe Story. But for that installation is not necessary, he/ she can access it through the web application (https://story.adobe.com). What your client requires is - an account with Adobe Story and an internet connection.
    You can also export your script in one of the formats available and send it across.
    Hope it helps

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    That's exactly what you need. A Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter and a HDMI cable. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241?viewlocale=en_US
    This is the only way to view a video on the TV. After connecting your MacBook Air to the TV, image on your TV should show immediately. Then, press Command and F1 keys to mirror your MacBook Air display, and open the video

  • If my wife wants to buy an ipad II what does she need to do shopping for hours at a time on the internet while driving

    My wife wants to do internet searches and shop for hours on end while I'm driving.  What does she need if we get an Ipad 2?
    Some people here at the office say I need Wi-Fi.  Some say 3G.  Some say I need to sign up with a carrier on some type of monthly plan to get the internet.
    Help!!
    I need this while we drive from state to state and not for getting on the internet through some hotel Wi-Fi Connection.
    Thanks,

    3G coverage and overall performance between Verizon and AT&T varies depending on where you are, and depending on where you are you may have no 3G service at all with any carrier.
    The other consideration is the price-points of various data plans, they differ between size and cost.
    But all plans are month-to-month, meaning that you can turn the service off anytime you want, and for as long as you want, but when you activate 3G service you pay for 30 days of service regardless if you turn 3G off (so turn it off on the 29th day if you won't need 3G next month).  You can do all of this right from the iPad, and you don't have to set anything up at the time of purchase (other than choose your carrier).  I bought a Verizon 3G iPad 6 weeks ago and have not yet activated 3G, but will do so soon while travelling.

  • My itunes store is saying that it could not contact the server, it says i need to restore my ipod but when i go to restore it, it says the server could not be contacted or something. what does this mean?

    okay so last night i went to charge my ipod in the computer and it started working then i took it out of the computer and put it on a wall charger and it had a spasm attack and shut itself down, after that it said i had to connect it to itunes so when i did it kept telling me that i need to restore my ipod, but when i press restore the itunes said "the contact server is not avalible" or something similar to that, what does that actually mean and is there anyway i can fix my ipod. i have dropped my ipod a few times, on tiles, wood, in a gutter of water when it fell out my pocket but im also wondering is it something to do with my ipod or is it itunes?

    Try:
    iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    The abuse may prevent a restore or prevent proper operation of the iPod if you can restore the iPod.
