HP (Hewlett-Packard) MSM7XX Switch User Manual


 
Working with controlled APs
Configuring APs
Note When the AP is physically connected to the network, it will discover the service
controller and automatically be accepted into the selected group. Make sure you
configure the correct MAC address, otherwise the AP will just be discovered as a new AP
and will not be placed into the selected group.
If an AP is created with the wrong product type it will go into the Wrong product state
when discovered. (For example, if you specify MSM310 for an AP that is an MSM320.) To
remedy this, select Overview > Discovered APs and select the Accept Products link in
the Action column. (This action will override the pre-configured product setting by the
information discovered from the actual physical AP.)
Deleting an AP
Note When the AP authentication feature is disabled, a deleted AP may automatically rediscover
the service controller if the AP is left connected to the network. Therefore, before deleting,
disconnect the AP unless you want it to rediscover the service controller.
1. To delete an AP, select the AP in the Network tree, and then in the Configured APs list,
select the AP name in the Link column.
2. On the AP management page, select Delete. The AP is deleted.
Moving an AP to a different group
Note Moving an AP to a different group causes it to be restarted.
Using drag-and-drop
The easiest way to move an AP to a different group is to drag-and-drop it from the old group
to the new group. Both groups must be visible in the Network tree for this to work.
The move to the different group does not actually occur until the AP is synchronized as
described in the next section, Synchronizing APs on page 3-27.
