AP-7131N-FGR Access Point Product Reference Guide

5.3.2 Setting the WLAN’s Radio Configuration
Each AP-7131N-FGR WLAN can have a separate 802.11a/n or 802.11b/g/n radio configured and
mapped to that WLAN. This enables each WLAN to optimize its radio configuration in respect to its
intended client needs.
With dual-radio model AP-7131N-FGR access points, the
Radio Configuration
screen enables you
to configure one radio for 802.11a (or a/n) use and the other for 802.11b/g (or b/g/n) support.
The new AP-7131N-FGR model access point is available in two different dual radio models. The two
models available to the AP-7131N-FGR series include:
•
AP-7131N-66040-FGR (802.11a/n and 802.11b/g/n capable)
•
AP-7131N-44040-FGR (802.11a and 802.11b/g capable)
For radios 1 and 2, WIPS and WLAN modes are mutually exclusive. In WLAN mode, a radio functions
as a traditional access point, providing wireless bridging. In WIPS mode a radio provides no wireless
bridging. Instead, the radio performs the following functionality:
•
Wireless Termination
- The access point attempts to force an unwanted (or unauthorized)
connection to disconnect.
•
Wireless Sniffing
- All received frames are reported to the WIPS server. This feature
provides the WIPS server with visibility into the activity on the wireless network. The WIPS
server processes the received traffic and provides the IT administrator with useful
information about the 802.11 RF activities in the enterprise.
•
Spectrum Analysis
- The data needed to provide the current RF Spectrum is provided to the
WIPS server. The access point does not display the data, but it is available to the WIPS
server. Spectrum analysis can operate only when there are no WLAN radios configured. The
WIPS daemon and server are responsible for limiting operation only when there is no radio
in WLAN mode. When a configuration change is made at the AP, the Spectrum Analysis
operation stops.
NOTE
With this most recent 4.0 release of the access point firmware, WIPS
functionality is no longer configured within a designated WIPS screen.
The WIPS Server designation and radio configuration is now set as part of
the access point’s quick setup. For more information on the quick setup
configuration and how to define WIPS radio support, see
Configuring
Device Settings on page 3-8
. For a description of WIPS functionality and
how it relates to access point operation, see
Sensor Support on page 1-6
