Manual upfront configuration of your device for management by the LANCOM Management Cloud

This section informs you about the steps necessary in order for your device to be configured and monitored by the LANCOM Management Cloud.You specify:

Whether your device is to be managed by the LMC.
Whether the LMC domain is to be retrieved from a DHCP server.
Which domain your device connects to.
The source address (optional).

Navigate to Management > LMC.
Select one of the three options under Manage the device with LMC:
- No: The device does not connect to the LMC.
- Yes: The LMC manages the device. (Default for devices without a WLAN interface)
- Only without WLC: Devices within a network managed by a WLC do not connect to the LANCOM Management Cloud. (Default for devices with a WLAN interface)
To obtain the LMC domain from a DHCP server, place a check mark in Configuration via DHCP.
Note: In order for the DHCP server to provide the LMC domain, the DHCP server requires sub-option 18 of the DHCP option 43 to be set to the LMC domain. For more information about the configuration of LMC parameters, see the section Delivery of the LMC domain by the LCOS DHCP server.
Under LMC domain you set the domain of the LANCOM Management Cloud that the device should connect to.
Enter an optional Source address (opt.) to be used instead of the one otherwise automatically selected for the source address. If you have configured a loopback address, you can specify it here as the source address.
