Setting The Port Type For A Directly Connected Ap; Configuring An Indirectly Connected Ap - D-Link DWS-1008 - AirPremier MobileLAN Switch Product Manual

Setting the Port Type for a Directly Connected AP

You must set the port type on DWS-1008 switch ports that are directly connected to access points.
When you change port type, MSS applies default settings appropriate for the port type. The table below
lists the default settings that MSS applies when you set a port's type to AP.
Port Parameter
VLAN membership
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)
802.1X
Port groups
IGMP snooping
Maximum user sessions
Caution: When you set the port type for AP use, you must specify the PoE state (enable or disable)
of the port. Use the DWS-1008 switch's PoE to power D-Link DWL-8220AP access points only. If you
enable PoE on a port connected to another device, physical damage to the device can result.
To set the port type for access ports, use the following command:
set port type ap port-list
model {dwl-8220ap} poe {enable | disable} [radiotype {11a | 11b | 11g}]
You must specify the AP model and the PoE state.
To set ports 1 through 3 and port 6 for access point model DWL-8220AP and enable PoE on the ports,
type the following command:
DWS-1008# set port type ap 1-3,6 model dwl-8220ap poe enable
This may affect the power applied on the configured ports.

If an access point that you want to manage using the DWS-1008 switch is indirectly connected to the
switch through a Layer 2 or Layer 3 network, configure the AP using the following command:
set dap dap-num serial-id serial-ID
model {dwl-8220ap} [radiotype {11a | 11b | 11g}]
To configure Distributed AP connection 1 for AP model DWL-8220AP with serial-ID 0322 199999, type
the following command:
DWS-1008# set dap 1 serial-id 0322199999 model dwl-8220ap
success: change accepted.
