The Setup > Advanced page displays advanced settings. To configure the
advanced setup settings of the access point, follow these steps:

STEP 1

Click Setup > Advanced.

STEP 2

The LAN Port Speed Settings configure settings for the port that physically
connects the WAP device to a local area network.

a. If the WAP device has compatibility issues with your switch, enable Force LAN

Port Speed to 100M. The default is Disabled.

b. Enable or disable the Auto Negotiation field. Default is disabled. When enabled,

the port will negotiate with its link partner to set the fastest link speed and
duplex mode available. When disabled, you can manually configure the port
speed and duplex mode.

c. If autonegotiation is disabled, select a Port Speed (10Mb/s, 100Mb/s, or

1000Mb/s,) and the duplex mode (Half- or Full-duplex).

STEP 3

To enable Bonjour, click Enabled. The default is Enabled. Bonjour enables the WAP
and its services to be discovered by using multicast DNS (mDNS). Bonjour
advertises services to the network and answers queries for service types it
supports, simplifying network configuration in small business environments.

STEP 4

Enable or disable the redirecting of wireless clients to a custom Web page. When
redirect mode is enabled, the user will be redirected to the URL you specify after
the wireless client associates with a WAP device and the user opens a Web
browser on the client to access the Internet. The custom Web page must be
located on an external Web server and might contain information such as the
company logo and network usage policy.

NOTE

The wireless client is redirected to the external Web server only once

while it is associated with the WAP device

In the URL field, enter the URL where the Web browser is to be redirected after the
wireless client associates with the WAP device and sends HTTP traffic.

STEP 5

IEEE 802.1X authentication enables the access point to gain access to a secured
wired network. You can enable the access point as an 802.1X supplicant (client) on
the wired network. To enable 802.1X supplicant settings:

a. In the 802.1x Supplicant field, click Enabled.

b. To use the MAC address for authentication, click Authentication via MAC

Address.
