Figure 6.82 Creating an Access Port Policy—Specifying Policy Definition for Specific AP Hardware Types
There are seven AP hardware types: AP 100, AP 200a, AP 200b, AP 300a, AP 300g, and converted access
points AP 302x (frequency-hopping) and AP 4131. These hardware types are grouped by the number and
mapping of BSSIDs and ESSIDs. Therefore, each such group is presented in separate tabs. On each tab,
a WLAN(s) can be selected that will support that hardware group.
parameters that can be specified, per hardware type.

Description
Select as many as four WLANs that will support AP 100 Access Ports. These APs
provide a 1-1 mapping of four BSSIDs to four ESSIDs. The BSSID values are
created automatically. The WLANs will also be included in the beacon.
All WLANs are automatically added to the AP 200a group, and are given a single,
auto-generated BSSID that maps to 16 ESSIDs. Use the State flag to declare
which of the listed WLANs should be considered the "Primary," WLAN.
All WLANs get included in this policy with the selected settings.
This group provides four 1-BSS-to-4-ESS mappings. Set the BSSID as a value
from 1 to 4.
Set a Primary WLAN for each BSSID by clicking the checkbox. An Access Port
Policy must have at least one primary if one WLAN, or at least 4, if 4 or more
WLANs.
