In the Static Configuration section, modify the following:
In the Add box, type the IP address of the HiPath Wireless Controller that will control
●
this Wireless AP.
Click Add. The IP address is added to the list.
●
Repeat to add additional HiPath Wireless Controllers.
●
Click Up and Down to modify the order of the controllers. The maximum is three
●
controllers.
The Wireless AP attempts to connect to the IP addresses in the order in which they
are listed. The Wireless AP is successful when it finds a HiPath Wireless Controller
that will allow it to register.
This feature allows the Wireless AP to bypass the discovery process. If the Wireless
Controller Search List box is not populated, the wireless AP will use SLP to discover
a HiPath Wireless Controller.
The DHCP function for wireless clients must be provided locally by a local DHCP
server, unless each wireless client has a static IP address.
