The current IP subnet mask displayed under the setting shows the IP subnet mask
currently assigned to the access point. This is the same subnet mask as the default
subnet mask unless DHCP or BOOTP is enabled. If DHCP or BOOTP is enabled,
this is the subnet mask used by the DHCP or BOOTP server.
You can also enter this setting on the Express Setup page.
Service Set ID (SSID)
The SSID is a unique identifier that client devices use to associate with the access
point radio. The SSID helps client devices distinguish between multiple wireless
networks in the same vicinity. The SSID can be any alphanumeric entry from two
to 32 characters long.
You can also enter this setting on the Express Setup page.
LEAP User Name
Use this field if the radio is set up as a repeater and authenticates to the network
using LEAP. When the radio authenticates using LEAP, the access point sends this
user name to the authentication server.
Follow the steps in the
“Setting up a Repeater Access Point as a LEAP Client”
section on page 4-27
to set up the radio as a LEAP client.
LEAP Password
Use this field if the radio is set up as a repeater and authenticates to the network
using LEAP. When the radio authenticates using LEAP, the access point uses this
password for authentication.
Follow the steps in the
“Setting up a Repeater Access Point as a LEAP Client”
section on page 4-27
to set up the radio as a LEAP client.
Entering Radio Hardware Information
You use the AP Radio Hardware pages to assign settings related to the access
point’s radio hardware. The internal radio and the radio module both have an AP
Radio Hardware page. Both pages contain similar settings.
Figure 3-11
shows the
AP Radio Hardware page for the radio module.
