Profile Settings

1To enable the Auto-DAP profile, select Enabled.

2To select the radio type, click the MAP Radio Type box and select the radio type from the list:

„11a—802.11a

„11b—802.11b only

„11g—802.11b/g

3In the Enable Blink list, select Yes to enable LED blink mode or No to disable it.

When blink mode is enabled, the health and radio LEDs on models alternately blink green and amber, allowing you to visually identify a MAP. (On an AP2750, the 11a LED blinks on and off.) By default, blink mode is disabled.

4If you are configuring dual-homing support, in the Bias list, select High or Low.

Bias is the priority of one WX connection over other WX connections to a single MAP for booting, configuration, and data transfer. You can set a Distributed MAP’s bias to be low or high. A configuration with a high bias has priority over a configuration for the same MAP with low bias. The default is High.

If the bias for all connections is the same, the MAP selects the switch that has the greatest capacity to add more active MAPs. For example, if a MAP is dual homed to two WX4400 switches, and one of the switches has 50 active MAPs while the other switch has 60 active MAPs, the new MAP selects the switch that has only 50 active MAPs.

Bias applies only to WX switches that are indirectly attached to the MAP through an intermediate Layer 2 or Layer 3 network. A MAP always attempts to boot on MAP port 1 first, and if the MAP is directly attached to a WX switch on MAP port 1, it boots from that switch regardless of the bias settings.

5To add the MAP to a MAP group for session load balancing, type the group name in the Load Balance Group box.
