4.9.3 Viewing Sensor Information
Use the Sensor tab to view information on AP300s configured as sensors and if needed revert them to
Access Ports.
To view existing Sensor information:
1. Select Network > Access Port from the main menu tree.
2. Click the Sensor tab.
Last Seen (In
Seconds)
Displays the time the Access Port was last seen (observed within the switch
managed network). This value is expressed in seconds. Use this value to assess if
the Access Port is no longer in communications with the switch.
Number of
Unadopted APs
Displays the total number of Access Ports (at the bottom of the screen) that have
been recognized, but not adopted by the switch.
CAUTION: An Access Port is required to have a DHCP provided IP address before
attempting layer 3 adoption, otherwise it will not work. Additionally, the Access Port must
be able to find the IP addresses of the switches on the network. To locate switch IP
addresses on the network:
• Configure DHCP option 189 to specify each switch IP address.
• Configure a DNS Server to resolve an existing name into the IP of the switch. The Access
Port has to get DNS server information as part of its DHCP information. The default DNS
name requested by an AP300 is “Symbol-CAPWAP-Address”. However, since the default
name is configurable, it can be set as a factory default to whatever value is needed.
