SECTION 4 " Configuration

Cable Type

Cable Type specifies the type of Ethernet medium to which the access point is connected. It is recommended that you explicitly set the cable type. Settings are:

 

10BaseT

 

 

10Base2

 

 

AUI

 

 

Auto Detect

 

 

 

 

Setting

Description

 

 

 

 

10BaseT

Selects the RJ11 connector (sets type to

 

 

10BASE-T, twisted pair). The cable type

 

 

defaults to 10BASE-T if no traffic is heard on

 

 

any Ethernet port (10BASE2, 10BASE5, or

 

 

10BASE-T) during a 10-second time window

 

 

when the access point starts up.

 

10Base2

Selects the BNC connector (sets type to

 

 

10BASE2, thinnet).

 

AUI

Selects the AUI 15-pin D-sub connector (sets

 

 

type to 10BASE5 thicknet, and other types).

 

Auto Detect

Automatically selects the correct cable type by

 

(default)

listening for traffic on the Ethernet ports during

 

 

initialization. For this to work, the access point

 

 

must be connected to the Ethernet medium

 

 

during system start-up, and another device on

 

 

the Ethernet medium must be transmitting at

 

 

least one frame every 10 seconds.

 

[Static Addresses]

Use [Static Addresses] to define a list of 20 or fewer permanent unicast 802 MAC addresses connected to this Ethernet port. The Static Address Table displays the addresses:
