Device Type Description
Cisco, Colubris, Determines the power level of radio transmission. Government regulations define the
Intel, Symbol, highest allowable power level for radio devices. This setting must conform to established
Proxim AP-600, standards for the country in which you use the device. You can increase the coverage
AP-700, AP-2000 RADIUS of the access point, by increasing the Transmit Power Level. However, while this
(802.11g) increases the zone of coverage, it also makes it more likely that the AP will interfere with
neighboring APs.
Supported values are: Cisco (100mW, 50mW, 30mW, 20mW, 5mW, 1mW) Intel/Symbol (Full
or 50mW, 30mW, 15mW, 5mW, 1mW) Colubris (High or 23 dBm, Med. or 17 dBm, Low or 13
dBm)
Colubris Determines how far a user can roam before roaming to another AP.
All Free form text field for entering fixed asset numbers or other device information. This
information is printed on the nightly inventory report.
All The Radio option allows you to disable the radio's ability to transmit or receive data while
still maintaining Ethernet connectivity to the network. AWMS will still monitor the Ethernet
page and ensure the AP stays online. Customers typically use this option to temporarily
disable wireless access in particular locations.
This setting can be scheduled at an AP-Level or Group-Level.
All (except If enabled, the AP will be assigned a new IP address using DHCP. If disabled, the AP will
Colubris) use a static IP address.
For improved security and manageability, Aruba recommends disabling DHCP and using
static IP addresses.
All (except The IP Address of the AP Ethernet interface. If One-to-One NAT is enabled, AWMS will
Colubris) communicate with the AP on a different address (the IP Address defined in the "Device
Communication" area).
If DHCP is enabled, the current assigned address will appear grayed out and the field
cannot be updated in this area.
WiMAX Base Defines the BSID for the base station. This BSID should match the BSID on the Groups >
Station WiMAX page if you want subscriber stations to associate with the base station.
Subscriber stations use the BSID defined on the Groups > WiMAX page to determine
which base stations to associate with.
All Provides the IP subnet mask to identify the sub-network so the IP address can be
recognized on the LAN. If DHCP is enabled, the current assigned address will appear
grayed out and the field cannot be updated in this area.
All The IP address of the default internet gateway. If DHCP is enabled, the current assigned
address will appear grayed out and the field cannot be updated in this area.
