The DHCP function for wireless clients must be provided locally by a local DHCP server, unless
each wireless client has a static IP address.
For the initial Altitude AP deployment, it is necessary to use one of the described options in
"Discovery and registration overview" on page
6 In the WM-AD Assignments section, assign the radios for each WM-AD in the list by selecting or
clearing the options.

click the Standard WAP Defaults tab.
8 In the WAP Properties section, do the following:
Poll Timeout - Type the timeout value, in seconds. The Altitude AP uses this value to trigger re-
establishing the link with the Summit WM Controller if it (Altitude AP) does not get an answer
to its polling. The default value is 10 seconds.
NOTE
If you are configuring session availability, the Poll Timeout value should be 1.5 to 2 times of Detect link failure
value on WAP Properties screen. For more information, see
Telnet Access - Click whether Telnet Access to the Altitude AP is enabled or disabled.
Maintain client session in event of poll failure - Select this option (if using a bridged at AP
WM-AD) if the AP should remain active if a link loss with the controller occurs.This option is
enabled by default.
Restart service in the absence of controller - Select this option (if using a bridged at AP WM-
AD) to ensure the Altitude APs' radios continue providing service if the Altitude AP's connection
to the Summit WM Controller is lost. If this option is enabled, it allows the Altitude AP to start a
bridged at AP WM-AD even in the absence of a Summit WM Controller.
