Verifying Post-Installation Connectivity
The integrated LEDs on the AP can be used to verify that the AP is receiving power
and initializing successfully (see
Table 1
). See the
Dell PowerConnect W-Series
ArubaOS Quick Start Guide
at
support.dell.com
for further details on verifying post-
installation network connectivity
Configuring the W-AP93H
AP Provisioning/Reprovisioning
Provisioning parameters are unique to each AP. These local AP parameters are
initially configured on the controller which are then pushed out to the AP and stored
on the AP itself. It is recommended that provisioning settings be configured via the
ArubaOS Web UI only. See the
Dell PowerConnect W-Series ArubaOS User Guide
at
support.dell.com
for complete details.
AP Configuration
Configuration parameters are network or controller specific and are configured and
stored on the controller. Network configuration settings are pushed out to the AP(s)
but remain stored on the controller.
Configuration settings can be configured via the ArubaOS Web UI, ArubaOS CLI, or
an Airwave Management Platform. See their respective guides for further details: the
Dell PowerConnect W-Series ArubaOS User Guide
or the
Dell PowerConnect W-
Airwave User Guide

Hazardous Substances Directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS). EU
RoHS restricts the use of specific hazardous materials in the
manufacture of electrical and electronic equipment. Specifically, restricted materials
under the RoHS Directive are Lead (including Solder used in printed circuit
assemblies), Cadmium, Mercury, Hexavalent Chromium, and Bromine. Some Dell
products are subject to the exemptions listed in RoHS Directive Annex 7 (Lead in
solder used in printed circuit assemblies). Products and packaging will be marked
with the “RoHS” label shown at the left indicating conformance to this Directive.
China RoHS
Dell products also comply with China environmental declaration
requirements and are labeled with the “EFUP 10” label shown at the
left.
Safety and Regulatory Compliance
Dell provides a multi-language document that contains country-specific restrictions
and additional safety and regulatory information for all Dell access points. This
document can be viewed or downloaded at
