Installation Guide

Chapter 2

From the 

apboot prompt, configure the host information, if necessary.

In order to provide centralized management of the APs, each Aruba AP 
downloads its software image and configuration files from a master Mobility 
Controller.

Setting the correct host information depends on the following:

z

Does your network use direct IP addresses or DNS with host names?

z

If using host names, is 

aruba-master acceptable for the master Mobility Con-

troller, or do you need to define a different name?

Depending on your answers, select one of the following steps:

z

This is the default. It requires your DNS to be configured to resolve 
“

aruba-master” to the IP address of the master Mobility Controller. Unless 

your system has been previously configured for different settings, you 
can skip to Step 2.

Otherwise, if your system was previously configured for a different 
setup, manually set the 

servername environment variable to the default 

host name:

The 

master and serverip environment variables also affect how AP 

source files are selected and should be cleared when using this 
approach. To clear a variable, enter the 

setenv variable command with 

no host name or address value:

When finished, proceed to Step 2.

z

This requires that the 

servername variable be configured with your chosen 

host name for the master Mobility Controller. It also requires that your 
DNS be configured to resolve the specified host name to the IP address 
of the master Mobility Controller.

To manually set the host name, use the following command:

apboot> setenv servername aruba-master

apboot> setenv servername <Mobility Controller host name>
