80 AP-4131 Access Point Product Reference Guide
2.5.1 Wireless AP Operation Parameters
The AP supports up to four WLAP interfaces. Symbol recommends using one
WLAP as an interface on high traffic networks and no more than two WLAPs
for low traffic networks. Excessive channel contention causes the WLAP to
miss beacons from the Root APs shown in the example.
Kerberos, EAP-TLS and the Mobile IP feature are not available when the
access point is operating in WLAP mode.
See section 4.9: ”LED Indicators” on page 198 for indication of AP status. If
more than two WLAPs operate in a repeater configuration, Symbol
recommends the WLAPs with the lowest WLAP IDs be placed on the wired
network.
To avoid forming a loop, per the IEEE 802.1d Spanning Tree Protocol, the
Wireless WLAP associates with only one wired WLAP.
1. Set the default interface for AP A to Ethernet.
2. Set the default interface for AP B to Ethernet.
