Introduction
Configure the AP through a direct serial connection if needed. Configure
SNMP to be "Read Only" or "Read/Write" from the KSS. Disabling Kerberos
returns (Kerberos disabled is the default setting) Telnet, SNMP and Web
services to their previous setting. If an AP cannot be accessed through a serial
connection and SNMP is not configured for read/write, use of DHCP option
131 is another way to disable Kerberos.
The optional KSS in a Spectrum24 environment runs only on a Windows
2000 server with Active Directory enabled. Future supported platforms
include Linux, Solaris, SCO Unixware and HP-UX.

1.3.11 KSS Open Enrollment

When the KSS startup and KDC authentication completes successfully, the
KSS opens a listening TCP/IP connection port and waits for any AP (several
APs can connect to the KSS concurrently) that requests KSS AP setup services.
Each AP requires an AP Setup Account entry. Open Enrollment mode allows
the system administrator to enter information for APs with the same ESSID
therefore the same Kerberos Principal. The system administrator creates an
AP Setup Account entry (enter all the Open Enrollment properties including a
Kerberos Principal) in Open Enrollment mode. Complete the Kerberos
account with this Principal in the Kerberos Account database. When the KSS
Listening mode and Open Enrollment is enabled (by selecting a check box in
the
Setup Account and the corresponding Kerberos Account to the AP . A new AP
Setup Account record is created for the AP using the default Open Enrollment
properties. The KSS continues to do this until Open Enrollment is disabled.
Access points with a "Disabled" status or expired range entries in the KSS are
not allowed to accept Open Enrollment information. This provides a tool to
block APs that are known to have been stolen or missing.
