Introduction

1-13

the latest firmware version for full feature functionality. An AP-5181 model access point does not 
support firmware earlier than 1.1.1.0.

For detailed information on updating the  firmware using FTP or TFTP, see 

Updating Device Firmware 

on page 4-49

.

1.2.12 Programmable SNMP v1/v2/v3 Trap Support

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

 facilitates the exchange of management information 

between network devices. SNMP uses 

Management Information Bases (MIBs) 

to manage the device 

configuration and monitor Internet devices in remote locations. MIB information accessed via SNMP 
is defined by a set of managed objects called 

object identifiers (OIDs)

. An object identifier (OID) is 

used to uniquely identify each object variable of a MIB.

SNMP allows a network administrator to configure the access point, manage network performance, 
find and solve network problems, and plan for network growth. The access point supports SNMP 
management functions for gathering information from its network components. The access point’s 
download site contains the following 2 MIB files:

•

Symbol-CC-WS2000-MIB-2.0 (standard MIB file)

•

Symbol-AP-5131-MIB (both the AP-5131 and AP-5181 use the same MIB, there is no specific 
MIB for an AP-5181)

The access point’s SNMP agent functions as a command responder and is a multilingual agent 
responding to SNMPv1, v2c and v3 managers (command generators). The factory default 
configuration maintains SNMPv1/2c support of community names, thus providing backward 
compatibility. 

For detailed information on configuring SNMP traps, see 

Configuring SNMP Settings on page 4-23

.

1.2.13 Power-over-Ethernet Support

When users purchase a Motorola WLAN solution, they often need to place access points in obscure 
locations. In the past, a dedicated power source was required for each access point in addition to the 
Ethernet infrastructure. This often required an electrical contractor to install power drops at each 
access point location. 

An approved power injector solution merges power and Ethernet into one cable, reducing the burden 
of installation and allows optimal access point placement in respect to the intended radio coverage 
area. An AP-5131 or AP-5181 can only use a Power-over-Ethernet device when connected to the LAN 
port.
