4.2 Adaptive AP Setup

An access point needs settings defined to discover (and adopt) an available switch and establish a
connection and data tunnel. It’s through this switch adoption that the access point receives its
adaptive AP (AAP) configuration. With the 2.0 access point firmware release, a new screen has been
added to define the mechanisms used to adopt a switch and route AAP configuration information

.

To configure the access point’s switch discovery method and connection medium:

1.

Select

System Configuration

->

Adaptive AP Setup

from the menu tree.

NOTE

For an AAP overview and a theoretical discussion of how an access point
discovers a switch to creates a secure data tunnel for adaptive AP
operation, see

Adaptive AP on page 10-1

.

NOTE

AAP functionality is only supported on a Motorola WS5100 model switch
(running firmware version 3.1) or higher and a Motorola RFS7000 model
switch (running firmware version 1.1 or higher).

NOTE

The Adaptive AP Setup screen does not display the AAP’s adoption status
or adopted switch. This information is available using the access point’s
CLI. To review AAP adoption status and adopted switch information, see

AP51xx>admin(system.aap-setup)>show on page 8-149
