This chapter shows you how to configure wireless LAN profiles on your NXC.
10.1 Wireless LAN Profiles Overview
The managed Access Points designed to work explicitly with your NXC do not have on-board
configuration files, you must create "profiles" to manage them. Profiles are preset
configurations that are uploaded to the APs and which manage them. They include: Radio and
Monitor profiles, SSID profiles, Security profiles, MAC Filter profiles, and Layer-2 isolation
profiles. Altogether, these profiles give you absolute control over your wireless network.
10.2 AP Radio & Monitor Profile Commands
The radio profile commands allow you to set up configurations for the radios onboard your
various APs. The monitor profile commands allow you to set up monitor mode configurations
that allow your APs to scan for other APs in the vicinity.
The following table identifies the values required for many of these commands. Other input
values are discussed with the corresponding commands.
