Node Identification Node Identification Y A node is a piece of equipment in a Meru wireless network. Each node is uniquely identified by two pieces of information: The node type: One of WNC (a controller), ASC (a subcontroller; contained AR within the controller), or ATS (an access point). The node number: An integer; unique within the node type. Many commands require only a node number because the command is specific to a node type. Other commands require both the node type and the node number.
Using the Controller Console and the CLI wnc> Y Use the console command to adjust the appearance of the console display. wnc> history 1 help 2 console set columns=80 rows=60 3 history AR The CLI keeps a history of the commands typed during your current session. Use the history command to list these commands . For example: Each history line is displayed with a number. You can redisplay any previous command for editing by typing an exclamation point (!) followed by the line number.

B BSSID Basic Service Set ID, a means of uniquely identifying an access point, usually intended for machine use rather than human use.
Alphabetic List of Terms and Abbreviations controller Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A protocol that allows a network administrator to manage and automatically assign IP numbers to client computers. IP numbers are released to client machines with a lease time. The lease time determines how long the client can retain the IP number without using it. AR DHCP Y D E The extended service set identifier (ID) for one or more access points.
Alphabetic List of Terms and Abbreviations mobile station Y N Network address translation. A system for converting the IP numbers used on one network to the IP numbers used in another network. Usually one network is the inside network and one network is the outside network. Usually the IP numbers on the inside network form a relatively large set of IP numbers, which must be compressed into a small set of IP numbers on the outside network. AR NAT O P Public Switched Telephone Network.
