EXAMPLE 10:ASSIGNING CONFIGURATIONSTO HIVEAPS

After completing the steps in the previous examples, you can now assign the following configurations as appropriate

to each HiveAP:

• WLAN policy (created in "Example 9: Creating WLAN Policies" on page126)

• Radio profiles (default radio profiles)

• Map (uploaded in "Example 1: Mapping Locations and Installing HiveAPs" on page91)

As the above list indicates, this example makes use of the two default radio profiles: radio_g0 for the wifi0

interface in access mode, and radio_a0 for the wifi1 interface in backhaul mode.

The HiveAP configuration assignments are presented conceptually in Figure21.

Figure 21 HiveAP Configuration Assignments

In addition to assigning the above configurations to the HiveAPs, you also change their login settings (and country

code if necessary) and apply the classifier tags "hq" and "branch1" so that the HiveAPs at HQ and the branch site use

the correct DNS servers.

Finally, you update the HiveAPs with the new configuration settings—and captive web portal files, if a captive web

portal is a part of the configuration—to complete their deployment.

You assign particular combinations of configurations to sets of

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 page91).

Because you know where the HiveAPs are located, you assign

them to the HQ-B1-F1 map, WLANpolicy-hq1, classifier tag

"hq", and the two default radio profiles: radio_g0 for network

access and radio_a0 for wireless backhaul communications.
