To change settings for a switch's Auto-DAP profile:
1 To enable the Auto-DAP profile, select Enabled.
2 To select the radio type, click the MAP Radio Type box and select the
radio type from the list:
11a—802.11a
11b—802.11b only
11g—802.11b/g
3 In the Enable Blink list, select Yes to enable LED blink mode or No to
disable it.
When blink mode is enabled, the health and radio LEDs on models
alternately blink green and amber, allowing you to visually identify a
MAP. (On an AP2750, the 11a LED blinks on and off.) By default, blink
mode is disabled.
4 If you are configuring dual-homing support, in the Bias list, select High or
Low.
Bias is the priority of one WX connection over other WX connections to a
single MAP for booting, configuration, and data transfer. You can set a
Distributed MAP's bias to be low or high. A configuration with a high bias
has priority over a configuration for the same MAP with low bias. The
default is High.
If the bias for all connections is the same, the MAP selects the switch that
has the greatest capacity to add more active MAPs. For example, if a MAP
is dual homed to two WX4400 switches, and one of the switches has 50
active MAPs while the other switch has 60 active MAPs, the new MAP
selects the switch that has only 50 active MAPs.
Bias applies only to WX switches that are indirectly attached to the MAP
through an intermediate Layer 2 or Layer 3 network. A MAP always
attempts to boot on MAP port 1 first, and if the MAP is directly attached
to a WX switch on MAP port 1, it boots from that switch regardless of the
bias settings.
5 To add the MAP to a MAP group for session load balancing, type the
group name in the Load Balance Group box.
