CAUTION: An access port is required to have a DHCP provided IP address before
attempting layer 3 adoption, otherwise it will not work. Additionally, the access port must
be able to find the IP addresses of the switches on the network. To locate switch IP
addresses on the network:
• Configure DHCP option 189 to specify each switch IP address.
• Configure a DNS Server to resolve an existing name into the IP of the switch. The access
port has to get DNS server information as part of its DHCP information. The default DNS
name requested by an AP300 is "Symbol-CAPWAP-Address". However, since the default
name is configurable, it can be set as a factory default to whatever value is needed.

button to reboot the switch. The switch itself does not include a hardware reset
feature.
CAUTION: When restarting or rebooting the switch, the Radius Server will also be
