To modify a Wireless AP’s properties as an access point:
1. From the main menu, click Wireless AP Configuration. The HiPath
Wireless AP page is displayed.
2. In the Wireless AP list, click the Wireless AP whose properties you want to
modify. The AP Properties tab displays Wireless AP information.
3. Modify the Wireless AP’s information:
•Name – Type a unique name for the Wireless AP that identifies the AP.
The default value is the Wireless AP’s serial number.
• Description – Type comments for the Wireless AP.
• AP Environment – Click the Wireless AP’s environment — Indoor or
Outdoor.
Note: The AP Environment drop-down is displayed on the AP Properties
tab only if the selected Wireless AP is the HiPath Outdoor Wireless AP.
Since the HiPath Outdoor Wireless AP can be deployed in both indoor and
outdoor environments, the AP Properties page enables you to specify the
environment.
