Access Controller Module LSWM1WCM10

1 Overview

The H3C LSWM1WCM10 access controller module is a wireless access controller (AC) product

developed by Hangzhou H3C Technologies Co., Ltd. (referred to as H3C hereinafter). The

LSWM1WCM10 is applicable to the H3C S5800-60C-PWR and S5820X-28C series Ethernet

switches and can address the deployment requirements of large- and medium-sized WLAN networks.

It features large capacity, high reliability and rich services and provides powerful WLAN access

control capability. Designed for WLAN access of enterprise networks, the LSWM1WCM10 provides

the most ideal access control solutions for WLAN access of large- and medium-sized enterprise

campus networks, wireless area coverage and hot spot coverage.

4 Installing and Removing the LSWM1WCM10

Avoid touching any components on the module during the installation or removal process. It is

recommended to wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap and ESD-preventive gloves before installation.

The LSWM1WCM10 is hot swappable. You need to install the LSWM1WCM10 in the OAP card slot

of an appropriate switch.

Installing the LSWM1WCM10

(1) Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensure a good skin contact and make sure that the

ESD-preventive wrist strap is properly grounded.

(2) Loosen the captive screws on the filler panel with a Phillips screwdriver, as shown in

Figure-3, and remove the filler panel from the slot to be used. Keep the removed filler panel

properly for future use.

Figure-3 Remove the filler panel

(1) Rotation direction of the Phillips

screwdriver

(2) Filler panel of the OAP card slot (3) Phillips screwdriver

(3) Take the LSWM1WCM10 out of the package. Then, you can select to insert the

LSWM1WCM10 as shown in

Figure-4 with the ejector levels at the bottom, or reversely

insert the LSWM1WCM10 as shown in

Figure-5 with the ejector levers on top. Select a

proper installation mode based on the hardware structure of your switch.

Manual Version: 5W100-20090929

The insertion and reverse insertion procedures are similar. This manual uses reverse insertion of

the LSWM1WCM10 to an S5800-60C-PWR switch as an example.

(4) Push the LSWM1WCM10 slowly along the guide rails (see callout (3) in

Figure-6) and then

push the ejector levers inward to lock the LSWM1WCM10 in position (see callout (4) in

Figure-6).

When installing the LSWM1WCM10, note the following:

 Do not touch the surface-mounted components directly with your hands.

 Do not use excessive force while installing the LSWM1WCM10. If you cannot insert the

LSWM1WCM10 smoothly, check whether the installation mode is correct.

(5) Fasten the captive screws on the LSWM1WCM10 clockwise with the Philips screwdriver

until the LSWM1WCM10 is fixed into the chassis.

Removing the LSWM1WCM10

(1) Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensure a good skin contact and make sure that the

ESD-preventive wrist strap is properly grounded.

(2) Loosen the captive screws on the LSWM1WCM10 counterclockwise with the Philips

screwdriver until all spring pressure is released.

(3) Hold each ejector lever with a hand and pull the ejector levers outward (see callout (4) in

Figure-7). Then pull out the LSWM1WCM10 slowly along the guide rails (see callout (3) in

Figure-7).

(3) Pull-out direction of the LSWM1WCM10 (4) Outward direction of the ejector levers

The protection panel on the LSWM1WCM10 surface has a yellow warning label ,

indicating that this area corresponds to the inner heat radiator. After the LSWM1WCM10 runs for

a period of time, this area may be very hot. So keep your hands away from the area while

removing the LSWM1WCM10 to avoid being hurt.

If you do not install a new LSWM1WCM10 in the slot, install a filler panel to prevent dust from

entering the switch and ensure normal ventilation in the switch.

5 Upgrading the LSWM1WCM10

The LSWM1WCM10 has its own Boot ROM program and application program with a Boot ROM

menu different from that of the S5800-60C-PWR and S5820X-28C series switches. To update the

application program of the LSWM1WCM10, use one of the following ways:

(1) Local update through the Boot ROM menu

 Use the TFTP protocol through the 10/100/1000Base-TX Ethernet port of the LSWM1WCM10

 Use the FTP protocol through the 10/100/1000Base-TX Ethernet port of the LSWM1WCM10

(1) Remote update through CLI

 Use the FTP protocol through the Ethernet port of the switch where the LSWM1WCM10 resides

 Use the TFTP protocol through the Ethernet port of the switch where the LSWM1WCM10

resides

For how to upgrade the LSWM1WCM10, refer to H3C Access Controller Module Software

Maintenance Manual.

6 Logging In to the LSWM1WCM10

Using the following command on a switch, you can to log in to the software system of the

LSWM1WCM10 (OAP card), and the switch’s command line interface (CLI) will switch to the software

system operating interface of the LSWM1WCM10. Thus, you can manage the application software of

LSWM1WCM10 on the switch.

Press the shortcut key Ctrl + K to return to the CLI of the switch.

7 Guidelines

 If the host software version does not match the access controller module, contact the sales

agent or the integrator for the right version.

Manual Version: 5W100-20090929

 For how to upgrade the host software version, refer to the related part in the corresponding

installation manual of the switch.
