Introduction
The ProCurve Radio Port 220, a component of the ProCurve Wireless LAN
System, links wireless 802.11a/b/g devices to the Ethernet network through a
wireless services-enabled switch. This device is to be used with the ProCurve
Switch 5300xl, with a ProCurve Wireless EDGE Services xl Module, or other
compatible wireless services-enabled switch product. These Radio Ports are
designed to be simple plug-and-play devices that require no individual device
configuration before being installed into a network. All Radio Port configu-
ration, including country-specific settings, radio channel, radio power, SSID
settings, security settings, management information, and Radio Port firmware
is provided through the wireless services-enabled switch.
