Topology 

The native and routed traffic on this interface (physical interface) is comprised of those packets which either originate on the port itself (i.e. ARP, SSH or HTTPS management) or are the result of a Layer 3 forwarding decision through that port (i.e. routed VNS topologies).

AP Registration is used by the Wireless APs as part of the discovery method. Ensure that AP Registration is enabled so that Wireless APs can use this port for discovery and registration as part of the Service Location Protocol (SLP).  A Wireless Controller configured as a Mobility Manager should also enable AP Registration since SLP will be used by the Mobility Agents to discover the Mobility Manager. We expect that APs could join EWC though this interface (In the further post, I will explain how AP could Join EWC). 

To allow management access (SNMPv2/v3, SSH or HTTPS) on a topology select Management Traffic to enable this feature. Once selected, the Internal Exception Filters will be populated to allow management traffic to this Port.  

You could also use the following commands to confirm syslog information from EWC CLI

EWC1.wirelessdeom.com# show topology                               

Name                    Mode      L2:VlanId,tagged,port  L3:IP,GW,DHCP            L3:IPv6,Auto-Generated Admin                   admin     N/A,N/A,Admin          192.168.1.1,none,N/A     N/A,                       

Physical1               physical  100,disable,esa0       192.168.10.4,none,none

By clicking "Allow all", we define the wireless controller will handle all unknow AP devices to connect / join wireless controller 

After that, you could see two APs had joined EWC.

AP Default Setting 

The AP Default Setting will allow modification of default values for any AP that are initially registered to the Controller to simplify the process of adding new APs to an existing deployment. 

Once a particular AP has been configured with all the setting that it needs to be deployed system-wide, these settings can be used as the default settings that are downloaded to newly registered access Points by using the Copy to Default on an individual AP Properties tab. 

This feature makes that each new AP registered to that controller will have the same settings. 

We could also use the following CLI commands to confirm AP config setting 

show ap config 

show ap radio1 

show ap radio2
