Approved Access Points List
—Displays the list of Approved AP used for local authentication pur-
poses. This table is not the same as the Priority Table discussed here, and is only included as an aid
to facilitate configuration.
•
Import from Approved List
—Copies the entries configured in the Approved AP List to this priority
table.
•
1-9
—Priority Table of Access Points. This table should include the Wireless MAC Address of the
desired Access Point units.
When association to an AP is terminated for any reason, the Remote enters Scanning mode. During this time
it listens for beacons from an AP that matches the network name. If the Prioritized AP option is enabled,
then the Wireless MAC Address of the AP must be part of the list at the remote. The initial list includes only
the first entry of the table. If no beacon is received that matches the requirement and the Scan Time is
exceeded, then the list is expanded to include the first two entries.
When a beacon matches the requirements, then the association process continues. It may be that the Remote
associates to an AP that is not the first entry in the table. In this case the Remote will wait for Connection
Time before breaking the connection and starting the process all over again. This process will be repeated
until the Remote associates to the first entry in the list (the Primary Access Point).
2.4.9 Bridge Configuration Submenu
The Bridge Configuration Menu allows a user to be able to configure Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) func-
tionality and the Ethernet Bridge.
Figure 2-30. Bridge Configuration Submenu
•
Spanning Tree Protocol
—Enable or disable Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) from the unit.
[Enabled,
Disabled; Enabled]
•
Bridge Priority
—View/set the priority of the bridge in the spanning tree.
[0, 65535; 32768]
•
Bridge Hello Time
—View/set spanning tree hello time. This parameter affects how often the bridge
sends a spanning tree Bridge Protocol Data Unit (BPDU) Time between transmissions of Hello mes-
sages, in seconds.
[1-10 seconds; 5seconds]
•
Bridge Forwarding Delay
—View/set spanning tree forwarding delay. Affects how long the bridge
spends listening and learning after initialization.
[1-30 seconds; 5 seconds]
