WLC and APs Management Access Methods
The Cisco WLC has various management Access methods. These include the following:
• Serial port access and telnet/SSH to the WLC Management interface IP address (CLI only). Note that terminal monitor is enabled by default on the Cisco WLC. SSH is enabled by default, and telnet is disabled by default.
• HTTP-HTTPS access to the WLC Management interface IP address or service port IP address (5508, 4400, WiSM, WiSM2). HTTP is disabled by default (HTTPS is enabled by default).
• Wireless client access. You can monitor and configure Cisco WLCs using a wireless client. This feature is supported for all management tasks except uploads from and downloads to the Cisco WLC. Before you can open the GUI or the CLI from a wireless client device, you must configure the Cisco WLC to allow the connection from the Management > Mgmt via Wireless page.
