Configuring a Radio Profile 245
Mapping a Service
Profile to a Radio
Profile
A radio profile controls IEEE settings for a set of 3Com radios. The radio
profile also maps a service profile to the radios.
If a radio profile is already configured, you can map it to the service
profile. Otherwise, you can configure the radio profile and map it to the
service profile later. (To configure a radio profile, see “Configuring a
Radio Profile” on page 245.)
To map a service profile to a radio
1 In the Create Service Profile wizard, click Radio Profile Selection. The
Radio Profile Selection page appears.
2 Select the radio profile in the Available Radio Profiles list.
3 Click Add to move the profile name to the Current Radio Profiles column.
4 Click Finish to save the changes and close the wizard.
Configuring a Radio
Profile
A radio profile is a set of attributes that you can apply to multiple radios.
A default radio profile named default is provided and cannot be deleted.
Rather than configuring each radio individually, you can create a new
radio profile and apply it to multiple radios that you select. You can also
create a radio profile as part of a domain policy and apply it to MAP
access points on different WX switches.
3Com recommends that you create a new radio profile and leave the
default radio profile unchanged as a backup.
The default radio profile is associated with a WX switch’s MAPs, unless
you created a new radio profile while configuring a floor plan’s coverage
area and configured the WX switches with the information in the floor
plan.
If you create a new radio profile while configuring a coverage area for a
floor, 3WXM automatically copies the new profile to the domain policy of
the Mobility Domain selected for the coverage area. Later, when you
configure WX switches in the Mobility Domain using the information in
the floor plan, 3WXM also copies the radio profile to the Radio Profiles
policy of each of the WX switches.
