locally or on the RADIUS server).

The physical port (in the slot/port format) on the switch that the AP is connected to either
directly or indirectly in the same L3 domain. If the AP is beyond the L3 network boundary, then
‘Unknown’ is displayed.

The network address of the access point.
Software Version
Shows the version of D-Link Access Point software that the AP is running.
Age
Shows how much time has passed since the AP was last detected and the information was
last updated.

managed mode.
•
No Database Entry—The MAC address of the AP does not appear in the local or RADIUS
Valid AP database.
•
Authentication (Failed AP)—The AP failed to be authenticated by the Unified Switch or
RADIUS server.
•
Failed—The Unified Switch lost contact with the AP; a failed entry will remain in the managed
AP database unless you remove it.

not in the Valid AP database.

changed in the valid AP database (either locally or on the RADIUS server) the AP is
automatically reset when a new profile is assigned.
