72 Installing the Wireless 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. License Key: If Xirrus issued you a license that differs from the current
value shown, enter it now. See also, “Entering the License” on page 69.
7. Configure SNMPv2: Select whether to Enable SNMPv2 on the Array, and
change the SNMP Community Strings if desired. If you are using the
Xirrus Management System (XMS), these strings must match the values
used by XMS. The default values for the Array match the defaults in
XMS. For more details, including SNMPv3, see “SNMP” on page 194.
8. Configure the Fast Ethernet (10/100 Megabit) and Gigabit network
interfaces. The fields for each of these interfaces are the same, and
include:
a. Enable Interface: Choose Yes to enable this network interface, or
choose No to disable the interface.
b. Allow Management on Interface: Choose Yes to allow management
of the Array via this network interface, or choose No to deny all
management privileges for this interface.
