Defaults By default UNIVERGE WL Access Points use the process described in
“Default UNIVERGE WL Access Points Boot Process”, in the Configuration
Guide to boot from a UNIVERGE WL Controller, instead of using a manually
specified UNIVERGE WL Controller.
Access Enabled.
Usage When you specify a boot UNIVERGE WL Controller for a UNIVERGE
WL Access Points to boot from, it boots using the process described in
“UNIVERGE WL Access Points Boot Process Using Static IP Configuration”, in
the Configuration Guide.
When a static IP address is specified for a UNIVERGE WL Access Points, there
is no preconfigured DNS information or DNS name for the UNIVERGE WL
Controller that the UNIVERGE WL Access Points attempts to use as its boot
device. If you configure a static IP address for a UNIVERGE WL Access Points,
but do not specify a boot device, then the UNIVERGE WL Controller must be
reachable via subnet broadcast.
Examples The following command configures UNIVERGE WL Access Points 1
to use a UNIVERGE WL Controller with address 172.16.0.21 as its boot device.
PROPMT# set ap 1 boot-configuration switch switch-ip 172.16.0.21 mode enable
success: change accepted.
The following command configures UNIVERGE WL Access Points 1 to use the
UNIVERGE WL Controller with the name controller2 as its boot device. The
DNS server at 172.16.0.1 is used to resolve the name of the UNIVERGE WL
Controller.
PROPMT# set ap 1 boot-configuration switch name controller2 dns 172.16.0.1 mode
enable
success: change accepted.
dns ip-addr The IP address of the DNS server used to resolve
the specified name of the UNIVERGE WL
Controller.
mode {enable | disable} Enables or disables the UNIVERGE WL Access
Points using the specified boot device.
