Chapter 2
12 Reboot the AP so the AP will come up with the new configured
parameters.
Use the Reprovisioning tab for APs which are already deployed but need to be
reconfigured. See the
ArubaOS User Guide for information on reprovisioning.
Manual Provisioning
Requirements
z
A console terminal (or workstation with terminal emulation software) with
an available serial communications port using a DB-9 male connector.
z
An Aruba serial breakout adapter kit, Part Number CA-SPOE-ADAPT-3, (not
included). (See
“Connecting the Console Terminal” on page 16 .)
z
Access to the Aruba AP60/61 FE port through one of the following:
z
Direct contact with the AP, or
z
If the AP is already deployed, you must have access to the end of the FE cable
that leads directly to the AP with no intervening hubs, routers, or other network-
ing equipment.
The cable must be an 8-conductor, Category 5 UTP, straight-through FE
cable with RJ-45 connectors.
z
A power source for the Aruba AP60/61. Use one of the following:
z
An optional AC power adapter (not included) and an AC power outlet rated at
100~240 V, 50~60 Hz, or
z
The Aruba AP60/61 FE port connected to an Aruba 800, 2400, or 5000 Mobility
Controller that supports IEEE 802.3af Power Over Ethernet (POE) via a 4- or
8-conductor, Category 5 UTP, straight-through FE cable.

— Only IEEE 802.3af Power Over Ethernet is supported for manual provisioning.
“Inline” or “midspan” POE devices require Aruba serial breakout adapter, Part
Number CA-SPOE-ADAPT-4.
1.IEEE 802.3af-complaint devices like the AP60 and AP61 use the same wire pairs for data versus
for power. Within the 802.3af standard, there are two sub-specifications on how wire pairs are as-
signed. Aruba conforms to 802.3af, subparagraph a. If your POE installation uses all-Aruba equip-
ment, you are assured proper operation. However, if you use non-Aruba POE equipment, make
sure it conforms to the same standard that Aruba uses. Using POE equipment using IEEE 802.3af
subparagraph b wiring assignments, or POE equipment not conforming to the 803.2af standard
may result in damaged equipment.
