Creating a Network Domain
WSS Software Version 4.1 and higher allows functionality found in Mobility Domains to be extended over a
multiple-site installation, in a Network Domain. A Network Domain is a group of geographically dispersed Mobility
Domains that share information over a WAN link. This shared information allows a user configured in one Mobility
Domain to establish connectivity on a WSS in a remote Mobility Domain. The WSS forwards the user traffic by creating
a VLAN tunnel to a WSS in the remote Mobility Domain.

Domain to establish connectivity on a WSS in a remote Mobility Domain. The WSS forwards the user traffic by creating

In a Network Domain, one or more WSS switches acts as a seed device. A Network Domain seed stores information
about all of the VLANs on the Network Domain members. The Network Domain seeds share this information among
themselves, so that every seed has an identical database.

To simplify configuration, WLAN Management Software assumes that the extent of the Network Domain is the same as
extent of the entire network plan. WLAN Management Software also automatically sets the seed affinities on each
switch as described in

Note.
Nortel recommends that you allow WLAN Management Software to automatically
assign affinity values instead of using the CLI to manually set them. If you use the CLI to set
them, WLAN Management Software does not replace the affinity values it automatically
sets with values set on individual switches. Thus, if you accept network changes that
include Network Domain affinity changes, WLAN Management Software ignores the affinity
changes and overrides them with auto computed values. As a result, WLAN Management
Software might generate local changes.
