Definitions of Service Request Severity

To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established severity
definitions.

• Severity 1 (S1)—Your network is “down,” or there is a critical impact to your business operations.

You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.

• Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of

your business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You
and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.

• Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business

operations remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours
to restore service to satisfactory levels.

• Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation,

or configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.

Installation and Configuration

These controllers offer the highest level of performance and scalability for large-scale enterprise WLAN
deployments. In addition, these controllers deliver WLAN services over an existing ethernet or IP
infrastructure, protecting existing network investments while providing best-in-class wireless services.
As a core component of the award-winning Cisco Wireless LAN Solution, these controllers deliver
wireless security, intrusion detection, RF management, Quality of Service (QoS) and mobility across an
entire enterprise. It works in conjunction with other controllers, Cisco WCS, and access points to provide
network managers with a robust Wireless LAN (WLAN) solution that enables business-critical wireless
applications. From voice and data services to location tracking, the controllers provide the control,
scalability, and reliability that IT managers need to build secure enterprise-scale wireless networks.

This document is written assuming that you have already determined the 802.11 topology. Because the
Radio Resource Management (RRM) feature automatically detects and configures the access points as
they appear on the network, it is not necessary to have any access points on the network to install and
configure a controller.

The controller is 17.5 in. wide x 15.75 in. deep x 1.75 in. high (443 x 400 x 44.5 mm). The chassis can
be rack or shelf mounted.

single network failures. That is, at any given time one of the Cisco 4400 Series Wireless LAN
Controller GigE connections is active and the other is passive. In case of a network failure, the active
connection becomes passive, and the passive connection becomes active. The 4402 controller has
one back-panel slot for future expansion modules and communicates with up to 12 access points

• AIR-WLC4402-25-K9—This 4402-25 controller uses two redundant GigE connections to bypass

single network failures, and communicates with up to 25 access points. It has one back-panel slot
for future expansion modules.

• AIR-WLC4402-50-K9—This 4402-50 controller uses two redundant GigE connections to bypass

single network failures, and communicates with up to 50 access points. It has one back-panel slot
for future expansion modules.

4404 Series Controller

There is only one type of 4404 series controller

• AIR-WLC4404-100-K9—This 4404-100 controller uses four redundant GigE connections to

bypass one or two single network failures, and communicates with up to 100 access points. It has
two back-panel slots for future expansion modules.
