This MIB is intended to be implemented on all those
devices operating as Central Controllers (CC) that
terminate the Light Weight Access Point Protocol
tunnel from Light-weight LWAPP Access Points.
This MIB provides configuration and status information
about the OPENDNS on the controller.
Particularly this mib covers the OPENDNS for the wireless
controllers.
OpenDNS provides cloud based security service by inspecting
DNS query.
It can filter the fully qualified domain name(FQDN) from
the DNS query and provide customized policy for the
security administrator to allow or deny traffic towards
the FQDN.
ISR4K platform can act as a DNS forwarder on network
edge, the router can transparently intercept the DNS
traffic and forward DNS queries to the OpenDNS cloud.
GLOSSARY
Access Point ( AP )
An entity that contains an 802.11 medium access
control ( MAC ) and physical layer ( PHY ) interface
and provides access to the distribution services via
the wireless medium for associated clients.
LWAPP APs encapsulate all the 802.11 frames in
LWAPP frames and sends it to the controller to which
it is logically connected to.
Central Controller ( CC )
The central entity that terminates the LWAPP protocol
tunnel from the LWAPP APs. Throughout this MIB,
this entity also referred to as 'controller'.
Light Weight Access Point Protocol ( LWAPP )
This is a generic protocol that defines the
communication between the Access Points and the
controllers. |
