4.7.1.2 Editing AP Settings

The

Edit

screen provides a means of modifying the properties of an existing radio. This is often necessary

when the radio’s intended function has changed and its name needs modification or if the radio now needs
to be defined as a detector radio. The Edit screen also enables you to modify placement, channel and power

NOTE: The 802.1x username and password information is only passed to adopted access
ports when the username and password are set. Any AP adopted after this will not
automatically receive the username and password.

NOTE: After setting the username and password to factory default settings, the system
must be rebooted before the factory default settings will take effect.
