radio basis. WLANs can be assigned to a radio as done today for an AP300 model Access Port. Optionally,
configure WLANs as independent and assign to AAPs as needed.
3. Configure each VPN tunnel with the VLANs to be extended to it.
If you do not attach the target VLAN, no data will be forwarded to the AAP, only control traffic required
to adopt and configure the AP.
B.4 Establishing Basic Adaptive AP Connectivity
This section defines the activities required to configure basic AAP connectivity with the switch. In
establishing a basic AAP connection, both the Access Point and switch require modifications to their
respective default configurations. For more information, see:
• Adaptive AP Configuration
• Switch Configuration
B.4.1 Adaptive AP Configuration
An AAP can be manually adopted by the switch, adopted using a configuration file (consisting of the adaptive
parameters) pushed to the Access Point or adopted using DHCP options. Each of these adoption techniques
is described in the sections that follow.
B.4.1.1 Adopting an Adaptive AP Manually
To manually enable the Access Point’s switch discovery method and connection medium required for
adoption:
1. Select System Configuration -> Adaptive AP Setup from the Access Point’s menu tree.
NOTE: For additional information (in greater detail) on the switch configuration activities
described above, see Switch Configuration.
NOTE: Refer to Adaptive AP Deployment Considerations for usage and deployment
caveats that should be considered before defining the AAP configuration. Refer to Sample
Switch Configuration File for IPSec and Independent WLAN if planning to deploy an AAP
configuration using IPSec VPN and an extended WLAN
