Configuring MAPs 227

The following command configures Distributed MAP 1 to use VLAN tag 100:

WX1200# set ap 1 boot-vlan vlan-tag 100 mode enable success: change accepted.

Clearing a MAP from the Configuration

To clear MAP settings from a port, use the following command:

When you clear a MAP, MSS ends user sessions that are using the MAP.

clear port type port-list

This command resets the port as a network port and removes all MAP-related parameters from the port.

The clear port type command does not place the cleared port in any VLAN, not even in the default VLAN (VLAN 1). To use the cleared port in a VLAN, you must add the port to the VLAN. (For instructions, see “Adding Ports to a VLAN” on page 92.)

To clear a MAP, use the following command:

clear ap apnumber

Changing MAP Names

The default name of a directly attached MAP is based on the port number of the MAP access port attached to the MAP. For example, the default name for a MAP on MAP access port 1 is MAP01. The default name of a Distributed MAP is based on the number you assign to it when you configure the connection. For example, the default name for Distributed MAP 1 is AP01.

MAP names appear in the output of some CLI display commands and in 3Com Wireless Switch Manager. To change the name of a MAP, use the following command:

set ap apnumber name name

Changing Bias

The CLI commands described in this section enable you to change the bias for a MAP.

To change the bias of a MAP, use the following command:

set ap apnumber bias {high low}
