Adaptive Ap Deployment Considerations - Extreme Networks Altitude 4700 Series Product Reference Manual

Adaptive AP Deployment Considerations

Before deploying your controller/AAP configuration, refer to the following usage caveats to optimize
its effectiveness:
Extended WLANs are mapped to the AP's LAN2 interface and all independent WLANs are mapped
●
to the AP's LAN1 Interface.
If deploying multiple independent WLANs mapped to different VLANs, ensure the AP's LAN1
●
interface is connected to a trunk port on the L2/L3 controller and appropriate management and
native VLANs are configured.
The WLAN used for mesh backhaul must always be an independent WLAN.
●
The controller configures an AAP. If manually changing wireless settings on the AP, they are not
●
updated on the controller. It's a one way configuration, from the controller to the AP.
An AAP always requires a router between the AP and the controller.
●
An AAP can be used behind a NAT.
●
An AAP uses UDP port 24576 for control frames and UDP port 24577 for data frames.
●
Multiple VLANs per WLAN, L3 mobility, dynamic VLAN assignment, NAC, self healing, rogue AP,
●
MU locationing, hotspot on extended WLAN are some of the important wireless features not
supported in an AAP supported deployment.
