Powering the E-MSM466-R

The E-MSM466-R can be powered by:
A 10/100 or 10/100/1000 PoE-enabled switch. Various PoE-enabled switches are available
from HP.
HP 1-Port 802.3at Gig PoE Power Injector (JD054A).
HP 1-Port 802.3af Gig PoE Power Injector (J9407B).
CAUTION:
a gigabit-compatible power injector. Although 10/100 PoE-enabled switches are compatible, PoE
injectors designed for 10/100 networks only are NOT compatible with the E-MSM466-R.

About controlled mode and autonomous mode

The E-MSM466-R can operate in one of two modes: controlled (the default) or autonomous.
Switching modes resets all configuration settings to factory defaults.
Controlled mode: To become operational, the E-MSM466-R must establish a management
tunnel with an E-MSM7xx Controller running at least v5.7.x software. The controller manages
the E-MSM466-R and provides all configuration settings. Discovery of the controller is automatic
if default settings are used on the E-MSM466-R and the controller, and both devices are on
the same subnet. See Working with controlled APs in the E-MSM7xx Controllers Management
and Configuration Guide.
Autonomous mode: After being switched to autonomous mode, the E-MSM466-R operates as
a stand-alone E-MSM466-R. You configure and manage an autonomous E-MSM466-R by
using its Web-based management tool, as described in

Status LED behavior in controlled mode

Table 1 Status LED behavior in controlled mode
Status LED behavior
Power LED blinks every two seconds.
Power LED blinks once per second.
Power, Ethernet, and Radio LEDs blink in
sequence from left to right.
Power LED is on. Ethernet and Radio LEDs
blink alternately.
Power and Ethernet LEDs blink alternately and
quickly. Radio LEDs are off.
Power and Radio LEDs blink slowly.
Power and Ethernet LEDs blink slowly.
After the discovery process is complete, and the E-MSM466-R has established a secure management
tunnel to a controller, the Power LED remains on and the Ethernet and Radio LEDs blink to indicate
the presence of traffic.
If the E-MSM466-R will be powered by a user-supplied PoE power injector, use only

Description
The E-MSM466-R is starting up.
The E-MSM466-R is looking for an IP address, or building the list of
VLANs on which to perform discovery. The management tool is available
until discovery occurs.
The E-MSM466-R has obtained an IP address and is attempting to
discover a controller.
The E-MSM466-R has found a controller and is attempting to establish
a secure management tunnel with it.
The E-MSM466-R has received a discovery reply from two or more
controllers with the same priority setting. It is unable to connect with
either controller until the conflict is resolved.
The E-MSM466-R is attempting to establish a local mesh link to a master
node.
The E-MSM466-R is attempting to establish wired connectivity.
