EXAMPLE 9:ASSIGNING HIVEAPSTOA DEVICE GROUP, RADIO

PROFILE, HIVE PROFILE, AND TOPOLOGY MAP

After completing the steps in the previous examples, you can now assign the following device settings as

appropriate to each detected HiveAP:

• Device group (created in "Example 7: Creating Two Device Groups" on page57)

• Radio profile (default radio profiles)

• Hive profile (created in "Example 8: Creating Three Hive Profiles" on page60)

• Map (uploaded in "Example 1: Mapping Locations and Installing HiveAPs" on page37)

As the above list indicates, this example makes use of the two default radio profiles: def-radio-profile-mode(bg) for

its interfaces in access mode, and def-radio-profile-mode(a) for its interfaces in backhaul mode. The assignment of

device settings to HiveAPs is presented conceptually in Figure13.

Figure 13 Assigning Device Settings to HiveAPs

In addition to assigning device settings to the HiveAPs, you also change their login settings. Finally, you update the

HiveAPs with the new configuration settings to complete their deployment.

You assign particular combinations of device settings to sets

of discovered HiveAPs.

For example, the four HiveAPs shown below were installed on

the first floor of building 1 at the corporate headquarters. You

know this because—during their installation—you either

configured their SNMP sysLocation MIB object to indicate the

map titled "HQ-B1-F1" or you wrote down the MAC addresses

and locations of all the HiveAPs you installed (see "Example

1: Mapping Locations and Installing HiveAPs" on page37).

Device Settings

Because you know where the HiveAPs are located, you

assign them to the HQ-B1-F1 map, Hive1, DeviceGroup-1,

and the two default radio profiles: def-radio-profile-mode(bg)

for network access and def-radio-profile-mode(a) for wireless

backhaul communications.
