Updatable firmware
Brocade periodically releases updated versions of device firmware to the Brocade Web site. If the
firmware version displayed on the System Settings screen (see
page 56) is older than the version on the Web site, Brocade recommends updating the access
point to the latest firmware version for full feature functionality.

Programmable SNMP v1/v2/v3 trap support
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) facilitates the exchange of management
information between network devices. SNMP uses Management Information Bases (MIBs) to
manage the device configuration and monitor Internet devices in remote locations. MIB
information accessed via SNMP is defined by a set of managed objects called Object Identifiers
(OIDs). An OID is used to uniquely identify each object variable of a MIB.
SNMP allows a network administrator to configure the access point, manage network performance,
find and solve network problems, and plan network growth. The access point supports SNMP
management functions for gathering information from its network components. The access point’s
download site contains MIB files supporting the access point:
The access point’s SNMP agent functions as a command responder and is a multilingual agent
responding to SNMPv1, v2c and v3 managers (command generators). The factory default
configuration maintains SNMPv1/2c support of community names, thus providing backward
compatibility.
For detailed information on configuring SNMP traps, see
MU-MU Transmission Disallow
The access point’s MU-MU Disallow feature prohibits MUs from communicating with each other
even if on the same WLAN, assuming one of the WLAN’s is configured to disallow MU-MU
communication. Therefore, if an MU’s WLAN is configured for MU-MU disallow, it will not be able to
communicate with any other MUs connected to this access point.
For detailed information on configuring an WLAN to disallow MU to MU communications, see
“Creating/editing individual WLANs”
Voice prioritization
Each access point WLAN has the capability of having its QoS policy configured to prioritize the
network traffic requirements for associated MUs. A WLAN QoS page is available for each enabled
WLAN on either the 802.11a/n or 802.11b/g/n radio.
Use the QoS page to enable voice prioritization for devices to receive the transmission priority they
may not normally receive over other data traffic. Voice prioritization allows the access point to
assign priority to voice traffic over data traffic, and (if necessary) assign legacy voice supported
devices (non WMM supported voice devices) additional priority.
For detailed information on configuring voice prioritization over other voice enabled devices, see
