Chapter 3 Radio Configuration and Basic Settings

Ethernet Configuration

Non-Root Mobility

This setting applies mainly to repeater access points that you intend to use in a roaming environment. The drop-down menu enables you to select either stationary or mobile settings:

•Stationary—The radio firmware does not aggressively scan for a better root association, which makes the association more stable but does not allow the access point to roam.

•Mobile—The radio firmware aggressively scans for a better root association, which allows the access point to roam throughout the wireless network.

Ethernet Configuration

This section describes how to configure the access point’s Ethernet port. You use the Ethernet pages in the management system to set the Ethernet port configuration. The Ethernet pages include:

•Ethernet Identification—Contains the basic locating and identity information for the Ethernet port.

•Ethernet Hardware—Contains the setting for the access point’s Ethernet port connection speed.

•Ethernet Advanced—Contains settings for the operational status of the access point’s Ethernet port. You can also use this page to make temporary changes in port status to help with troubleshooting network problems.

•Ethernet Port—Lists key information on the access point’s Ethernet port.

Entering Identity Information

You use the Ethernet Identification page to enter basic locating and identity information for the access point’s Ethernet port. Figure 3-10shows the Ethernet Identification page.
