Set a NAS-Identifier Attribute up to 253 characters in length. This is the RADIUS NAS-Identifier
attribute that typically identifies where a RADIUS message originates

Set a NAS-Port-Id Attribute up to 253 characters in length. This is the RADIUS NAS port ID attribute
which identifies the device port where a RADIUS message originates

Refer to the Turn on LEDs option to enable an adopted access point’s LEDs. This feature is enabled
by default.

Select the Flash Pattern radio button to enable the access point to blink in a manner different from
its operational LED behavior. Enabling this option allows an administrator to validate that the
access point has received its configuration from its managing controller during staging. In the
staging process, the administrator adopts the access point to a staging controller to get an initial
configuration before the access point is deployed at its intended location. Once the access point
has received its initial configuration, its LED blinks in a unique pattern to indicate the initial
configuration is complete.

Use the drop-down menu to configure the access point’s Meshpoint Behavior. This field configures
the access point’s mobility behavior. The default is External (fixed) and indicates that the mesh
point is fixed. The value vehicle-mounted indicates that the mesh point is mobile. This feature is
available only on selected model access points.

Use the Root Path Monitor Interval to configure the interval to monitor path to the root node.

Set the Additional Port value for RADIUS Dynamic Authorization field. Set this value to 1700 to
enable a CISCO Identity Services Engine (ISE) Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA)
server, when deployed in the network, to dynamically authenticate a client.

When a client requests access to the network, the CISCO ISE RADIUS server presents the client
with a URL where the device’s compliance to the networks security such as validity of anti-virus or
anti-spyware software is checked for the validity for their definition files (this checking is called
posture). If the client device complies, then it is allowed access to the network.

Set the Aging Time value for Client Bridge. Use the spinner control to set a value in days, hours,
minutes and seconds.

Select OK to save the changes made to the profile’s Advanced Miscellaneous configuration. Select
Reset to revert to the last saved configuration.

Overriding Environmental Sensor Configuration

Overriding a Device Configuration

NOTE

This feature is available on the Brocade Mobility 1240 Access Point model only.

An Brocade Mobility 1240 Access Point sensor module is a USB environmental sensor extension to
an Brocade Mobility 1240 Access Point model access point. It provides a variety of sensing
mechanisms, allowing the monitoring and reporting of the Brocade Mobility 1240 Access Point's
radio coverage area. The output of the sensor's detection mechanisms are viewable using either
the Environmental Sensor screen.

To set an environmental sensor configuration for an Brocade Mobility 1240 Access Point model
access point:

1. Select the Configuration tab from the Web UI.

2. Select Devices.
