System Name Specify a device name for the access point. Extreme
Networks recommends selecting a name serving as a
reminder of the user base the access point supports
(engineering, retail, etc.). This name will appear in the
WIPS server when one of the radios is configured as a
sensor and the WIPS functionality connects to the WIPS
server. The WIPS module only accepts names with up to
20 characters, keep that if intending to use this AP as a
sensor.
System Location Enter the location of the access point. The System
Location parameter acts as a reminder of where the AP
can be found. Use the System Name field as a specific
identifier of device location. Use the System Name and
System Location fields together to optionally define the AP
name by the radio coverage it supports and specific
physical location. For example, “second floor engineering”
Admin Email
Address Specify the AP administrator's email address.
Country The access point prompts the user for the correct country
code after the first login. A warning message also displays
stating that an incorrect country setting will lead to an
illegal use of the Access Point. Use the pull-down menu to
select the country of operation. Selecting the correct
country is extremely important. Each country has its own
regulatory restrictions concerning electromagnetic
emissions (channel range) and the maximum RF signal
strength transmitted. To ensure compliance with national
and local laws, be sure to set the
Country field correctly.
Disable LEDs Select the Disable LEDs radio button to stop the Access
Points LEDs from blinking during startup and normal
operation. Selecting this option turns off all of the Access
Point’s light pipes and none of the Access Point’s states
are displayed by the LEDs. This option is disabled by
default.
AP-4700 Version The displayed number is the current version of the device
firmware. Use this information to determine if the Access
Point is running the most recent firmware available from
Extreme Networks. Use the
Firmware Update screen to
keep the AP’s firmware up to date.
System Uptime Displays the current uptime of the access point defined in
the System Name field.
System Uptime is the cumulative
time since the access point was last rebooted or lost
power.
Serial Number Displays the access point Media Access Control (MAC)
address. The access point MAC address is hard coded at
the factory and cannot be modified. The LAN and WAN
port MAC addresses can be located within the LAN and
WAN Stats screens.
AP Mode Displays the Access Point’s mode of operation to convey
whether the Access Point is functioning as a standalone
Access Point (Independent mode) or in Adaptive (thin AP)
mode. If in Adaptive mode, the Access Point attempts to
discover a controller through one or more of several
mechanisms: DNS, DHCP, ICMP, CAPWAP or a statically
programmed IP address.
