Broadcast a new channel/scan  table to su:

  

bcastscant <all|suid><ch #> <h|v>… 

Example: 

bcastscant all 5 v 2 h 

In this example, the AP will transmit a new channel scan table (channel 5 vertical, 2 horizontal) to all 
associated SU’s.  This command will broadcast the table every second for 60 minutes..  To stop the 
broadcast sooner, type the command 

bcastscant stop

. 

 
Note:  SU commands issued from the AP will automatically update the SU’s flash memory. 
 
A complete description of these commands and many others can be found in Appendix 1, Command Line 
Interface Summary – Command Set Summary. 
 

Telnetting into a remote SU 

It is also possible to telnet into an SU from the AP side of the network.  In order to telnet into an SU via the 
AP side of the network, it is necessary to turn on switch 2 (TCP/IP for AP switch) at the SU.   
  
To turn on switch 2 (while logged onto AP) 

su sw <su-id|all> 2 on

                              

Example: 

su sw 2 all on

   :   to turn on swich 2 for all associated SU’s. 

 
While switch 2 is on, you can also access the SU via HTTP interface (from the AP side of the network.) 

Managing AP from SU side of Network 

As a security feature, the Access5830 was designed to prevent users on the SU side of the network from 
accessing the AP via telnet or HTTP interface.  If it is necessary for network administrators to access an AP 
from the SU side of the network the user must first telnet into a router located behind the AP – and then 
telnet from the router into the AP.
