Switch configuration

NOTE

Refer to

“Adaptive AP deployment considerations”

on page 557 for usage and deployment caveats

that should be considered before defining the AAP configuration. Refer to

“Sample switch

configuration file for IPSec and independent WLAN”

on page 557 if planning to deploy an AAP

configuration using IPSec VPN and an extended WLAN.

Adaptive AP configuration

An AAP can be manually adopted by the switch, adopted using a configuration file (consisting of the
adaptive parameters) pushed to the access point or adopted using DHCP options. Each of these
adoption techniques is described in the sections that follow.

Adopting an adaptive AP manually

To manually enable the access point’s switch discovery method and connection medium required
for adoption:

1. Select System Configuration -> Adaptive AP Setup from the access point’s menu tree.

2. Select the Auto Discovery Enable checkbox.

Enabling auto discovery will allow the AAP to be detected by a switch once its connectivity
medium has been configured (by completing steps 3-6)

3. Enter up to 12 Switch IP Addresses constituting the target switches available for AAP

connection.
