Configuring APs 297
Nortel WLAN—Security Switch 2300 Series Configuration Guide
To set the port type for AP access ports, use the following command:
set port type ap port-list
model {2330 | 2330A | 2330B | 2332-A1 | 2332-A2 | 2332-A3 | 2332-A4 | 2332-A5 | 2332-A6
| 2332-E1 | 2332-E2 | 2332-E3 | 2332-E4 | 2332-E5 |2332-E6 | 2332-E7 | 2332-E8 | 2332-E9 |
2332-J1}
poe {enable | disable}
[radiotype {11a | 11b| 11g}]
You must specify the AP model and the PoE state.
(For syntax information, see “Setting a port for a directly connected AP” on page 103.)
To set ports 11 through 14 and port 16 for AP model 2330 and enable PoE on the ports, type the following command:
WSS# set ap <apnum> port <portnum> model <ap_type> poe {enable|disable}
This may affect the power applied on the configured ports. Would you like to continue? (y/n) [n]y

Table 13: AP access port defaults

Port parameter Setting
VLAN membership Port is removed from all VLANs. You cannot assign an AP
access port to a VLAN. WSS Software automatically assigns AP
access ports to VLANs based on user traffic.
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) Not applicable
802.1X Port uses authentication parameters configured for users.
Port groups Not applicable
IGMP snooping Enabled as users are authenticated and join VLANs.
Maximum user sessions Not applicable
Caution! When you set the port type for AP use, you must specify the PoE state
(enable or disable) of the port. Use the WSS switch’s PoE to power Nortel APs only. If you
enable PoE on a port connected to another device, physical damage to the device can
result.
Note. You cannot configure port 7 or 8 on a 2360/2361 switch, or port 1 on a 2350, or
port 3 on a 2382, or any gigabit Ethernet port, as an AP port. To manage an AP on an 2380
switch, configure a Distributed AP connection on the switch. (See “Configuring an indirectly
connected AP” on page 298.)
