174 Configuring the Wi-Fi Array
Procedure for Performing an Express Setup
1. Host Name: Specify a unique host name for this Array. The host name is
used to identify the Array on the network. Use a name that will be
meaningful within your network environment, up to 64 alphanumeric
characters. The default is Xirrus-WiFi-Array.
2. Location Information: Enter a brief but meaningful description that
accurately defines the physical location of the Array. In an environment
where multiple units are installed, clear definitions for their locations are
important if you want to identify a specific unit.
3. Admin Contact: Enter the name and contact information of the person
who is responsible for administering the Array at the designated location.
4. Admin Email: Enter the email address of the admin contact you entered
in Step 3.
5. Admin Phone: Enter the telephone number of the admin contact you
entered in Step 3.
6. Configure SNMP: Select whether to Enable SNMPv2 on the Array, and
set the SNMPv2 community strings. The factory default value for the
Read-Only Community String is xirrus_read_only. The factory default
value for the Read-Write Community String is xirrus. If you are using
the Xirrus Management System (XMS), the read-write string must match
the string used by XMS. XMS also uses the default value xirrus.
7. Configure the 10/100 Ethernet 0 (10/100 Mb) and Gigabit Ethernet 1
network interface settings. Note that the and Gigabit Ethernet 2 port is
not configured on this page. If you need to make changes to Gigabit 2,
please see “Network Interfaces” on page 180.
The fields for each of these interfaces are similar, and include:
a. Enable Interface: Choose Yes to enable this network interface, or
choose No to disable the interface.
b. Allow Management on Interface: This option is available only on the
Gigabit 1 and Gigabit 2 interfaces — the 10/100 Ethernet port is also
known as the Management Port, and management is always enabled
