1. To enable wireless on the switch, use the following commands.

   sw-3850-1(config)# wireless management interface vlan <1-4095>

2. Define the Mobility Controller

   • To define Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switch as the mobility controller, use the following command:

     sw-3850-1(config)# wireless mobility controller

     Note	This configuration change requires reboot.

   • If Cisco Catalyst 3850 is the Mobility Agent, do the following:

     1. To the Mobility Controller IP address with the following command:

        sw-3850-1(config)# wireless mobility controller ip a.b.c.d

     2. Enter the following commands on the Mobility Controller:

        3850MC(config)# wireless mobility controller peer-group <SPG1>
        
        3850MC(config)# wireless mobility controller peer-group <SPG1> member ip w.x.y.z
        

3. Ensure license availability.

   To ensure that the active Access Point Licenses are available on the Mobility Controller, use the following commands. The Mobility Agent uses the licenses that are activated on the Mobility Controller.

   Note

   To enable wireless services, run ipservices or an ipbase license. Access Point count licenses are applied on the Mobility Controller, and are automatically provisioned and applied on the Mobility Agent. The Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switches, which act as Mobility Controller can support up to 100 APs.

   License Level on Reboot: ipservices
   Evaluation AP-Count: Disabled
   Total AP Count Licenses: 100
   AP Count Licenses In-use: 3
   AP Count Licenses Remaining: 97
   

4. To activate the Access Point count license on the Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switch, enter the following command with the required Access Point count on the Mobility Controller:

   sw-3850-1# license right-to-use activate apcount <count> slot <#> acceptEULA

5. Configure the Access Point discovery process.

   To enable the Access Points to join the controller, the switch port must be set as an access port in the wireless management VLAN. Use the following command if VLAN100 is used for the wireless management interface:

   sw-3850-1(config)# interface gigabitEthernet1/0/10
   sw-3850-1(config-if)# switchport mode access
   sw-3850-1(config-if)# switchport access vlan 100
   

6. To configure web access, use the following command.

   sw-3850-1(config)# username admin privilege 15 password 0 admin
   sw-3850-1(config)# ip http server

   • To access the GUI, log on to http:// mgmt_ip/ webui/

   • Define the login credentials in the initial configuration dialog box. After successful authentication, the Wireless Controller Home page displays, as shown in the following figure.

   Figure 2. Wireless Controller Home Page
   
   

7. To ensure that the proper country code is configured on the switch that is compliant with the regulatory domain of the country in which the Access Points are deployed, use the following command.

   sw-3850-1# show wireless country configured 
   
    Configured Country.............................: US  - United States
    Configured Country Codes 
     US  - United States : 802.11a Indoor,Outdoor/ 802.11b / 802.11g
   

sw-3850-1(config)# ap dot11 24ghz shutdown 

sw-3850-1(config)# ap dot11 5ghz shutdown 

sw-3850-1(config)# ap country BE

Changing country code could reset channel and RRM grouping configuration. 
If running in RRM One-Time mode, reassign channels after this command. 
Check customized APs for valid channel values after this command. 
Are you sure you want to continue? (y/n)[y]: y

sw-3850-1(config)# no ap dot11 24ghz shut
sw-3850-1(config)# no ap dot11 5ghz shut
sw-3850-1(config)# end
sw-3850-1# write memory
