AP Installation
Chapter 2
If the APs are not in the same broadcast domain as the Mobility Controller,
you need to enable multicast on the network (ADP multicast queries are sent
to the IP multicast group address 224.0.82.11) for the controller to respond
to the APs’ queries. You also need to make sure that all routers are
configured to listen for Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) join
requests from the Mobility Controller and can route these multicast packets.
See the
ArubaOS User Guide
for more information about enabling ADP on the
Mobility Controller.
Mounting the Aruba AP 70
Mount the Aruba AP 70 at its intended service location.
The Aruba AP 70 Access Points are intended only for installation in Environment
A as defined in IEEE 802.3.af. All interconnected equipment must be contained
within the same building, including the interconnected equipment's associated
LAN connections.
Select a location as close as possible to the center of the intended coverage area.
If necessary, use the Aruba RF Plan site survey tool to determine the optimum
locations for your access points and air monitors.
The service location should be free from obstructions or obvious sources of
interference. Normally, the higher you place an access point or air monitor, the
better its performance.
