Viewing and configuring switch WLANs

10. Refer to the Status field for the current state of the requests made from applet. This field
displays error messages if something goes wrong in the transaction between the applet and
the switch.
The RADIUS... button is greyed out within this screen,as there is no data to be configured or
saved.
Use Voice Prioritization
Select the Use Voice Prioritization option if Voice is used on the WLAN. This gives
priority to voice packets and voice management packets and is supported only on
certain legacy Motorola VOIP phones.
Enable SVP
Enabling SVP (Spectralink Voice Prioritization) allows the switch to identify and
prioritize traffic from Spectralink/Polycomm phones.
Secure Beacon
Closed system is the secure beacon feature for not answering broadcast SSID.
This option still allows MU to MU communication within the WLAN.
QoS Weight
Sets the Quality of Service weight for the WLAN. WLAN QoS will be applied based
on the QoS weight value with the higher values given priority.The default value for
the weight is 1.
MU to MU Traffic
Allows frames from one MU (where the destination MAC is of another MU) are
switched to a second MU. Use the drop-down menu to select one of the following
options:
•
Drop Packets – This restricts MU to MU communication based on the WLAN’s
configuration
•
Allow Packets – This allows MU to MU communication based on the WLAN’s
configuration
MU Idle Time
Set the MUs idle time limit in seconds. The default value is 1800 seconds.
Access Category
Displays the Access Category for the intended traffic. The Access Categories are
the different WLAN-WMM options available to the radio.
The Access Category types are:
•
Automatic/WMM – Optimized for WMM
•
Voice – Optimized for voice traffic. Voice packets receive priority.
•
Video – Optimized for video traffic. Video packets receive priority.
•
Normal – Optimized for normal traffic
•
Low – Optimized for background traffic
MCast Addr 1
The address provided takes packets (where the first 4 bytes match the first 4 bytes
of the mask) and sends them immediately over the air instead of waiting for the
DTIM period. Any multicast/broadcast that does not match this mask will go out
only on DTIM Intervals.
MCast Addr 2
The second address also takes packets (where the first 4 bytes match the first 4
bytes of the mask) and sends them immediately over the air instead of waiting for
the DTIM period. Any multicast/broadcast that does not match this mask will go
out only on DTIM Intervals.
NAC Mode
Using Network Access Control (NAC), the switch only grants access to specific
network resources. NAC restricts access to only compliant and validated devices
(printers, phones, PDAs etc.), thereby limiting the risk of emerging security risks.
NAC performs an authorization check for users and MUs without a NAC agent, and
verifies a MU’s compliance with the network security policy. The switch supports
only the EAP/802.1x type of NAC. However, the switch can bypass NAC for MU’s
without NAC 802.1x support. For the implications of using the include and exclude
with NAC, see
“Configuring the NAC inclusion list”
