Displaying the IP Addresses of AT-UWC Programs
If you want to use the optional AT-UWC Unified Wireless Controller
program to manage the access point, you have to configure the device
with the IP addresses or domain names of the management workstations
that have the program. There are two ways to accomplish that. One way is
to manually enter the IP addresses or domain names in the “Configure
Managed Access Point Parameters” window, as explained in “Configuring
the Access Point for the Optional AT-UWC Program” on page 83.
The other way is to use a DHCP server that supports option 43, which
allows you to enter vendor specific information that the server supplies to a
network device. If you specify the IP addresses or domain names of the
management program in option 43, the DHCP server supplies the
information to the access point when the unit initially queries the server for
its IP address when it is powered on or reset.
If you choose to use DHCP option 43, the access point displays the IP
addresses of the programs from the server in the “View list of managing
switch IP addresses and base IP port obtained via DHCP” window.
Figure 37 is an example of the window. You display the window by
selecting Managed AP DHCP from the Status menu. The window lists the
IP addresses or domain names that it received from the DHCP server of
the network devices that have the management program The window also
displays the base TCP/IP port of the ten consecutive ports that the access
point and AT-UWC programs use to communicate with each other.
