• Upper and lower case characters, numbers, and
hyphens are accepted
• The first character must be a letter (a–z or A–Z) or

Section 3: Configuring the Access Point
NOTE:
After you configure the Time settings, you must click Save to apply the
changes and save the changes to startup configuration file Changing
some settings might cause the AP to stop and restart system processes
If this happens, wireless clients will temporarily lose connectivity We
recommend that you change AP settings when WLAN traffic is low
NOTE:
Hostnames are composed of a series of labels joined with dots, as are
all domain names Each label must be between 1 and 63 characters
long, and the entire hostname (including dots) has a maximum of 253
characters
Log Settings
The Log Settings page shows real-time system logs on the AP such as wireless
clients associating with the AP and being authenticated
From the Log Settings page, you can enable and configure persistent logging to
write system logs to non-volatile memory so that the events are not erased when
the system reboots This page also gives you the option of enabling a remote log
relay host to capture all system logs and errors in a kernel log
To view system events, click the Configuration > Administration > Log Settings tab
