7.1.4 GRE Tunnel

When GRE tunnel is created between EAP-200 and the controller, EAP-200 can be logically deployed into the

Controller’s managed network regardless of its physical location. If the tunnel is created from WHG series

controllers, all of the configuration should be performed on the Controller side. It is meaningless to configure

GRE tunnel settings from the EAP-200 side. Once the settings are applied from the Controller side, the applied

settings such as Key string will be passed to the corresponding EAP-200 and its WMI page will automatically

open to confirm the changes. Click Restart link and EAP-200 will restart to activate the tunnel. A new window

will automatically open and display the tunnel settings from the AP side which is passed from the Controller.

Click the Reboot link to apply and activate the settings to AP. Please refer to your WHG manual for more

information regarding AP management with tunnels.

GRE Tunnel: To enable, click Enable of GRE Tunnel.

Remote IP: Enter the IP address of the Controller.

Key: Set up a password for the connection.

Interface: Select a VAP or WDS that its traffic will pass through the GRE Tunnel between APs and

controller. For how to enable VAP items, please refer the section 7.2.3 VAP Configuration for reference.
