Auto Configuration

Administrators can use text configuration files to configure the

 

wireless LAN settings for multiple APs. The AP can

 

automatically get a configuration file from a TFTP server at

 

start up or after renewing DHCP client information.

 

 

SNMP

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a protocol

 

used for exchanging management information between

 

network devices. SNMP is a member of the TCP/IP protocol

 

suite. Your NWA supports SNMP agent functionality, which

 

allows a manger station to manage and monitor the NWA

 

through the network. The NWA supports SNMP version one

 

(SNMPv1) and version two c (SNMPv2c).

 

 

DFS

DFS (Dynamic Frequency Selection) allows a wider choice of

 

802.11a wireless channels.

 

 

CAPWAP

The NWA can manage and be managed via CAPWAP (Control

 

And Provisioning of Wireless Access Points), which allows

 

multiple APs to be configured and managed by a single AP

 

controller.

 

 

25.1 Wall-Mounting Instructions

Complete the following steps to hang your NWA on a wall.

Note: See Table 25 on page 297 for the size of screws to use and how far apart to place them.

1Select a position free of obstructions on a sturdy wall.

2Drill two holes for the screws.

Be careful to avoid damaging pipes or cables located inside the wall when drilling holes for the screws.

3Do not insert the screws all the way into the wall. Leave a small gap of about 0.5 cm between the heads of the screws and the wall.

4Make sure the screws are snugly fastened to the wall. They need to hold the weight of the NWA with the connection cables.
