276 Configuring the Wireless Array
IAPs
This status-only window summarizes the status of the Integrated Access Points
(radios). For each IAP, it shows whether it is up or down, the channel and wireless
mode, the antenna that it is currently using, its cell size and transmit and receive
power, how many users (stations) are currently associated to it, whether it is part
of a WDS link, and its MAC address.
Figure 147. IAPs
The Channel column displays some status information that is not found
elsewhere: the source of a channel setting. (Figure 148) If you set a channel
manually (via IAP Settings), it will be labeled as manual next to the channel
number (Figure 148). If an autochannel operation changed a channel, then it is
labeled as auto. If the channel is set to the current factory default setting, the
source will be default. This column also shows whether the channel selection is
locked, or whether the IAP was automatically switched to this channel because
the Array detected the signature of radar in operation on a conflicting channel
(see also, Step 8 on page 287).
There are no configuration options in this window, but if you are experiencing
problems or simply reviewing the IAP assignments, you may print this window
for your records. Click any IAP name to open the associated configuration page.
