Configuring AP access points 259
Nortel WLAN Security Switch 2300 Series Configuration Guide
For the serial-id parameter, specify the serial ID of the AP. The serial ID is listed on the AP case. To display
the serial ID using the CLI, use the show version details command.
The model and radiotype parameters have the same options as they do with the set port type ap command.
Because the WSS switch does not supply power to an indirectly connected AP, the set dap command does not
use the poe parameter.
To configure Distributed AP connection 1 for AP model 2330 with serial-ID 0322199999, type the following
command:
23x0# set dap 1 serial-id 0322199999 model 2330
success: change accepted.
(To specify the external antenna type, use the set {ap | dap} radio antennatype command. See “Configuring
the External Antenna Model” on page 274.)
To configure Distributed AP connection 2 for AP model AP-241 with serial-ID 0322188888 and radio type
802.11a, type the following command:
23x0# set dap 2 serial-id 0322188888 model AP-241 radiotype 11a
success: change accepted.
Clearing an AP from the Configuration
To clear the port settings from a port, use the following command:
clear port type port-list
This command resets the port as a network port and removes all AP-related parameters from the port.
To clear a Distributed AP, use the following command:
clear dap dap-num
Changing AP Names
The default name of a directly attached AP is based on the port number of the AP access point attached to the
AP. For example, the default name for an AP on AP access point 1 is AP01. The default name of a Distributed
AP is based on the number you assign to it when you configure the connection. For example, the default name
for Distributed AP 1 is DAP01.
Warning! When you clear an AP access port, WSS Software ends user sessions that
are using the AP.
Note. The clear port type command does not place the cleared port in any VLAN, not
even in the default VLAN (VLAN 1). To use the cleared port in a VLAN, you must add the
port to the VLAN. (For instructions, see “Adding Ports to a VLAN” on page 92.)
