The Properties field displays the Model family for the selected Access Point. The Model is read only
and cannot be modified. The Radio Type displays the radio type (802.11a or 802.11bg). This value is
read only and cannot be modified
5 To use this radio as a detector to identify rogue APs on your network, check the box titled Dedicate
this AP as Detector AP. Setting this radio as a detector will dedicate this radio to detecting rogue APs
on the network. Dedicated detectors do not connect to clients.
NOTE
If the radio adoption default settings for both 802.11a and 802.11bg radios are set to detector, both radios will
be configured as a detector. If the first radio of the AP is set to detector manually, the second radio will fail to
be set as a detector.
6 Select the Single-channel scan for Unapproved APs checkbox to enable the controller to detect rogue
devices using its only its current channel of operation.
7 Within the Radio Settings field, configure the Placement of the radio as either Indoors or Outdoors. The
setting will affect the selection channel and power levels. Default is Indoor.
8 Select a channel for communications between the Access Point and MUs in the Desired Channel field.
The selection of a channel determines the available power levels. The range of legally approved
communication channels varies depending on the installation location and country. The selected
channel can be a specific channel, Random, or ACS. Random assigns each radio a random channel.
ACS (Automatic Channel Selection) allows the controller to systematically assign channels. Default is
Random.
9 After first selecting a channel, select a power level in dBm for RF signal strength in the Desired Power
(dBm) field.
