AP Management

4.2.1 AP Group Configuration
The APC manages the services provided to the AP by group. An operator can add or delete
several APs to/from a group.
When the APC is installed for the first time, a 'default' group is created. When the AP
information is created first time, the AP is automatically added to the 'default' group.
If the 'auto-discovery' mode is enabled in the APC, an AP connected to the APC is
automatically added to the 'default' group. For reference, operator can specify a specific
AP group where an AP will be added during auto-discovery configuration.
An operator can manage the services per group by creating a new AP group and can move
or a specific AP to another group or delete it in the original group. The APs deleted in a
group are automatically moved to the 'default' group.
If the AP group information is changed, i.e. if an AP moves to another group, the AP uses
the WLAN of a new group. Therefore, some existing WLANs in the AP are deleted and
some new WLANs can be added. The detail example is shown below.
(Example) Default group: Includes wlan1, wlan2, wlan3, and wlan4.
New group: Includes wlan4, wlan5, and wlan6.
When the AP_1 moves from the default group to a new group
The APC asks the AP_1 to delete the wlan1, wlan2, and wlan3.
The APC asks the AP_1 to add the wlan5 and wlan6.
Configuration using CLI
To manage an AP group, execute the command as follows.
1) Go to configure mode of CLI.
WEC8500# configure terminal
WEC8500/configure#
2) Create or delete an AP group. Use 'no' parameter in front of the command to delete an
AP group.
