Access Point Commands
Syntax: set dap auto [radiotype {11a | 11b| 11g}]
radiotype 11a | 11b | 11g Radio type:
• 11a - 802.11a
• 11b - 802.11b
• 11g - 802.11g
Defaults: The default radio type for the DWL-8220AP-101 is 802.11g.
Examples: The following command sets the radio type to 802.11b:
DWS-1008# set dap auto radiotype 11b
success: change accepted.
set {ap | dap} bias
Changes the bias for an DWL-8220AP. Bias is the priority of one DWS-1008 switch over
other switches for booting and configuring the DWL-8220AP.
Syntax: set {ap port-list | dap {dap-num | auto}} bias {high | low}
ap port-list List of ports on which to change the bias for directly connected
DWL-8220APs.
dap dap-num Number of a Distributed AP for which to change the bias.
dapauto Configures bias for the DWL-8220AP configuration template.
high High bias.
low Low bias.
Defaults: The default bias is high.
Access: Enabled.
Usage: High bias is preferred over low bias. Bias applies only to DWS-1008 switches
that are indirectly attached to the DWL-8220AP through an intermediate
Layer 2 or Layer 3 network. A DWL-8220AP always attempts to boot on
DWL-8220AP port 1 first, and if an switch is directly attached on
DWL-8220AP port 1, the DWL-8220AP always boots from it.
If DWL-8220AP port 1 is indirectly connected to switches through the network, the
DWL-8220AP boots from the switch with the high bias for the DWL-8220AP.
If the bias for all connections is the same, the DWL-8220AP selects the
switch that has the greatest capacity to add more active DWL-8220APs.
