Nortel WLAN Security Switch 2300 Series Configuration Guide
To set the port type for AP access points, use the following command:
set port type ap port-list
model {AP2750 | AP-52 | AP-101 | AP-122 | AP-241 | AP-252 | AP-262 |
AP-341 | AP-352 | 2330}
poe {enable | disable}
[radiotype {11a | 11b| 11g}]
You must specify the AP model and the PoE state.
For models AP-101, AP-241, and AP-341, you can specify one of the following for the radio type:
• 11a—802.11a
• 11b—802.11b
• 11g—802.11g (AP-241 and AP-341 only)

Port parameter Setting
VLAN membership Port is removed from all VLANs. You cannot assign an AP
access point to a VLAN. WSS Software automatically assigns
AP access points to VLANs based on user traffic.
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) Not applicable
802.1X Port uses authentication parameters configured for users.
Port groups Not applicable
IGMP snooping Enabled as users are authenticated and join VLANs.
Maximum user sessions Not applicable
Warning! When you set the port type for AP use, you must specify the PoE state
(enable or disable) of the port. Use the WSS switch’s PoE to power Nortel AP access
ports only. If you enable PoE on a port connected to another device, physical damage to
the device can result.
Note. You cannot configure port 7 or 8 on an WSS-2360 switch, or port 1 on an
WSS-2350 , or any gigabit Ethernet port, as an AP port. To manage an AP access point on
an WSS-2380 switch, configure a Distributed AP connection on the switch. (See
“Configuring an Indirectly Connected AP” on page 258.)
Note. All AP models except the 2330 and AP2750 have been discontinued but
are still supported by the command.
