Table 10 Defaults for Service Profile Parameters (continued)

 

 

Radio Behavior When Parameter

Parameter

Default Value

Set to Default Value

 

 

 

keep-initial-vlan

disable

Reassigns the user to a VLAN after

 

 

roaming, instead of leaving the roamed

 

 

user on the VLAN assigned by the

 

 

switch where the user logged on.

 

 

Note: Enabling this option does not

 

 

retain the user’s initial VLAN

 

 

assignment in all cases.

no-broadcast

disable

Does not reduce wireless broadcast

 

 

traffic by sending unicasts to clients for

 

 

ARP requests and DHCP Offers and

 

 

Acks instead of forwarding them as

 

 

multicasts.

proxy-arp

disable

Does not reply on behalf of wireless

 

 

clients to ARP requests for client IP

 

 

addresses. Instead, the radio forwards

 

 

the ARP Requests as wireless

 

 

broadcasts.

psk-phrase

No passphrase

Uses dynamically generated keys rather

 

defined

than statically configured keys to

 

 

authenticate WPA clients.

psk-raw

No preshared

Uses dynamically generated keys rather

 

key defined

than statically configured keys to

 

 

authenticate WPA clients.

rsn-ie

disable

Does not use the RSN IE in transmitted

 

 

frames.

shared-key-auth

disable

Does not use shared-key

 

 

authentication.

 

 

This parameter does not enable PSK

 

 

authentication for WPA. To enable PSK

 

 

encryption for WPA, use the

 

 

set radio-profile auth-psk command.

short-retry-count

5

Sends a short unicast frame up to five

 

 

times without acknowledgment.

soda

disable

Sygate On Demand Agent (SODA) files

 

 

are not downloaded to connecting

 

 

clients.

ssid-name

3Com

Uses the SSID name 3Com.

ssid-type

crypto

Encrypts wireless traffic for the SSID.

static-cos

disable

Assigns CoS based on the QoS mode

 

 

(wmm or svp) or based on ACLs.
