Allows DWL-8220APs to be managed by the switch even if they do not have encryption keys or their keys have not been configured by an administrator.
Encryption is not used, even for APs that support it.
Require all Distributed APs to have encryption keys that have been confirmed in the CLI by an administrator.

Examples: The following command configures the transmit power on the 802.11a radio on the DWL-8220AP access point connected to port 5:

DWS-1008# set ap 5 radio 1 tx-power 10 success: change accepted.

The following command configures the channel and transmit power on the 802.11b/g radio on the DWL-8220AP access point connected to port 2:

DWS-1008# set ap 2 radio 1 channel 1 tx-power 10 success: change accepted.

set dap security

Sets security requirements for management sessions between a DWS-1008 switch and its Distributed APs. This feature applies to Distributed APs only, not to directly connected DWL-8220APs configured on DWL-8220AP access ports. In addition, DWL-8220AP models DWL-8220AP-101 and DWL-8220AP-122 do not have encryption keys and do not support this feature regardless of how they are connected to the switch.

Note: The maximum transmission unit (MTU) for encrypted DWL-8220AP management traffic is 1498 bytes, whereas the MTU for unencrypted management traffic is 1474 bytes. Make sure the devices in the intermediate network between the switch and Distributed AP can support the higher MTU.

Defaults: By default, encryption keys are optional.

Access: Enabled.

Usage: This parameter applies to all Distributed APs managed by the switch. If you change the setting to required, the switch requires Distributed APs to have encryption keys. The switch also requires their fingerprints to be confirmed in MSS. When DWL-8220AP security is required, an
