Nortel Networks 2300 manual Clearing an AP from the Configuration, Changing AP Names

Configuring AP access points 259

For the serial-idparameter, specify the serial ID of the AP. The serial ID is listed on the AP case. To display the serial ID using the CLI, use the show version details command.

The model and radiotype parameters have the same options as they do with the set port type ap command. Because the WSS switch does not supply power to an indirectly connected AP, the set dap command does not use the poe parameter.

To configure Distributed AP connection 1 for AP model 2330 with serial-ID 0322199999, type the following command:

23x0# set dap 1 serial-id 0322199999 model 2330

success: change accepted.

(To specify the external antenna type, use the set {ap dap} radio antennatype command. See “Configuring the External Antenna Model” on page 274.)

To configure Distributed AP connection 2 for AP model AP-241 with serial-ID 0322188888 and radio type 802.11a, type the following command:

23x0# set dap 2 serial-id 0322188888 model AP-241 radiotype 11a

success: change accepted.

Clearing an AP from the Configuration

Warning! When you clear an AP access port, WSS Software ends user sessions that are using the AP.

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

clear port type port-list

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

Note. 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 Distributed AP, use the following command:

clear dap dap-num

Changing AP Names

The default name of a directly attached AP is based on the port number of the AP access point attached to the AP. For example, the default name for an AP on AP access point 1 is AP01. The default name of a Distributed AP is based on the number you assign to it when you configure the connection. For example, the default name for Distributed AP 1 is DAP01.
