Wireless Configuration 5-5
5.1.1.6 Hotspot Inactivity Timeout
Enter the duration of inactivity for a user after which the user is timed out from the hotspot. The default value
is 20 minutes and the maximum timeout value is 1440 minutes (1 day).
5.1.2 AP Adoption Configuration
The AP Adoption Configuration screen allows for setting up default Access Port adoption rules as well as a
deny list to prevent the adoption of specific Access Ports.
5.1.2.1 AP Deny List
The AP Deny List allows you to prevent individual Access Ports from associating with the switch. For each
Access Port you wish to deny, click the Add button and enter the device’s MAC Address into the field
provided.
To add an AP to the AP Deny List:
1. Click the Add button located below the AP Deny List table. A new row will be added to the table.
2. Enter the MAC Address of the Access Port you wish to deny.
3. Click the Apply button to save the changes.
5.1.2.2 Access Port Radio Adoption List
Use this list to adopt detected Access Ports and to assign them to a particular WLAN. The switch can adopt
up to six Access Ports at a time, but the list of allowed Access-Port addresses (displayed in this area) can
exceed six in number. A dual-radio 802.11a/b Access Port counts as one Access Port with respect to the
maximum allowed; however, each radio will be listed as a separate Access Port.
This adoption list identifies each Access Port by its Media Access Control (MAC) address. This address is the
Access Port’s hard-coded hardware number that is printed on the bottom of the device. An example of a MAC
address is 00:09:5B:45:9B:07.
1. To adopt an Access Port, click the Add button to add a new criteria line to the table.
2. Specify the following fields:
NOTE: The default setting for the switch has both the Start MAC and End MAC addresses set to “ANY”,
and all enabled WLANs checked. This setting allows all the WLANs to adopt any Access Port that it
detects, automatically.
3. Up to 20 entries can be added to the Access Port Adoption list. Click the Apply button to save changes.
Field Description
Start MAC This field contains the lowest value in a range of MAC addresses that will use this particular
adoption criteria. To specify a single MAC address instead of a range, enter it in this field as well
as the End MAC field.
End MAC This field contains that highest number in a range of MAC addresses that will use this particular
adoption criteria. If this value is empty, the Access Port adopted by this criteria must match the
Start MAC field exactly.
WLAN
columns
The next eight columns are associate with the eight WLANs that are shown in the upper portion of
the screen. To the left, specify a range of Access Port MAC address for adoption. Then, click the
check boxes of the WLANs that need to adopt the Access Ports in the specified range.
