Device- and platform-specic CLI reference guides are available online. (To learn how to
access them, see "Where to go for more information" elsewhere in this document.)
As explained in the previous section, after connecting a HiveAP to the network and powering
it on, it acts as a DHCP client and tries to get its network settings automatically from a DHCP
server in VLAN 1. However, if there is no DHCP server in that VLAN, if the native VLAN for the
network segment is not 1, or if you just want to assign it a static IP address, then you need to
access the CLI and dene the network settings yourself.
One approach is to use a console cable, which is available from Aerohive as an accessory.
Another is to use the virtual access console. This is a way of accessing the CLI on a HiveAP
wirelessly through a special SSID that the HiveAP, by default, automatically activates for
administrative access when it has no conguration and cannot reach its default gateway.
The default virtual access console SSID name is “<hiveap-hostname>_ac”. The default host
name of a HiveAP consists of "AH-" plus the last six digits of its MAC address; for example,
AH-123456. In this case, the name of the default virtual access console SSID would be "AH-
123456_ac". By default, this SSID uses aerohive as the PSK (preshared key) for authenticating
user access. To access the virtual access console, do the following:
By default, a HiveAP acts as a DHCP client and gets its network settings automatically from a
DHCP server. (You can also congure it with static network settings through the CLI. See the
next section, "Using the Virtual Access Console".) After a HiveAP has its network settings, it then
acts as a CAPWAP client and sends CAPWAP Discovery messages until HiveManager, acting as
the CAPWAP server, responds. CAPWAP (Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points) is a
protocol that access points use to contact a management device and communicate with it.
When a HiveAP goes online for the rst time without any specic CAPWAP server conguration
entered manually or received as a DHCP option, it progresses through these cycle of CAPWAP
connection attempts:
A HiveAP connected directly to the network is called a portal. You can also place a HiveAP
within radio range of a portal so that it forms a wireless link through the portal to the wired
network. This kind of HiveAP is called a mesh point. A mesh point initially forms a hive with
its portal using a default hive called hive0. Through this link, the mesh point can reach the
network and get its network settings from the DHCP server. Then it can form a CAPWAP
connection with HiveManager. (To add mesh points after changing the hive name, rst
connect them to the wired network. Next, push the conguration with the new hive name and
password to them from HiveManager. Finally, deploy them as mesh points.)
If the HiveAP forms a CAPWAP connection with the Aerohive redirection server and its serial
number has been entered in an ACL, the redirection server automatically redirects the
CAPWAP connection to the corresponding HiveManager Online VHM (virtual HiveManager).
The redirection server does this by sending the HiveAP the HiveManager domain name or IP
address as its new CAPWAP server and the name of the appropriate VHM. If the HiveAP is
currently using HTTP, the redirection server includes the conguration needed for the HiveAP
to continue using it. Similarly, if the HiveAP is congured to access the public network through
an HTTP proxy server, the redirection server saves the relevant settings on the HiveAP so it
will continue using the HTTP proxy server when connecting to HiveManager.
If the Aerohive redirection server does not have the HiveAP serial number, the ACL ignores the
CAPWAP connection attempts, and the HiveAP repeats the connection cycle shown previously.
After you cable the HiveAP to an Ethernet network and power it on, it automatically
attempts to get its network settings through DHCP and contact HiveManager. The process
typically takes about ve minutes to complete. If you see the HiveAP listed on the Monitor >
Access Points > HiveAPs page in the HiveManager GUI, the initial setup is complete and you
can now begin managing the HiveAP through HiveManager.
If the HiveAP does not appear in the HiveManager GUI after about ten minutes, read the
rest of this guide to understand how the HiveAP attempts to contact HiveManager and what
you can do to help establish a connection between the two devices.
(a) The HiveAP tries to
connect to HiveManager
using the default domain
name "hivemanager.
<local_domain>:
12222", where
<local_domain> is the
domain name that a
DHCP server supplied
to the HiveAP and
12222 is the UDP port
number. If a DNS server
has been congured
to resolve that domain
name to an IP address, the
HiveAP and HiveManager
then form a secure CAPWAP
connection on port 12222.
If the HiveAP cannot make a
CAPWAP connection to HiveManager
on port 12222, it tries to reach it by
using TCP port 80: hivemanager.<local_
domain>:80.
(b) If the DNS server cannot
resolve the domain name
to an IP address, the
HiveAP broadcasts
CAPWAP Discovery
messages on its local
subnet. If HiveManager
is on the local network
and responds, they
form a secure CAPWAP
connection.
(c) If the rst two
searches for a local
HiveManager produce no
results, the HiveAP tries
to contact HiveManager
Online at redirector.aerohive.
com:12222. If the Aerohive
redirection server has a serial
number or MAC address for that HiveAP
in its ACL (access control list), it responds
and they form a secure CAPWAP connection.
If the HiveAP cannot make a CAPWAP connection to
HiveManager Online on UDP port 12222, it tries to reach it on
TCP port 80. If that proves unsuccessful, the HiveAP returns to
its initial search through a DNS lookup and repeats the cycle.

The status LED in the corner of the HiveAP 330 and 350 indicates various states of activity
through its color and illumination patterns (solid or ashing). The meanings of the colors
are explained below.
• Dark: There is no power or the status indicator is disabled.
• Blue: (solid) The device is booting up or there is no backhaul link; (ashing) the
device is shutting down
• Green: The default route is through the backhaul Ethernet interface, but not all
conditions for normal operations (white) have been met.
• Yellow: The default route is through a backhaul wi interface, but not all conditions
for normal operations (white) have been met.
• White: The device is powered on and the rmware is operating normally; that is, a
wireless interface in access mode is up, a wired or wireless backhaul link is up, and
the HiveAP has a CAPWAP connection to HiveManager.
• Purple: A new image is being loaded from HiveManager or a management AP.
• Orange: An alarm indicating a rmware or hardware issue has occurred.
You can adjust its brightness level from bright (the default) to soft to dim, or turn it off
completely. In HiveManager, the setting is on the Conguration > Management Services >
Management Options page. CLI: [ no ] system led brightness { soft | dim | off }.
Bright Soft Dim Off
The following are some tips and suggestions to help you troubleshoot a few common problems that
might arise when setting up the HiveAP 330 and 350:
• For the HiveAP 350, make sure that you connect the 2.4 GHz antennas to the 2.4 GHz
connectors, and the 5 GHz antennas to the 5 GHz connectors.
• If you manage the HiveAP through HiveManager Online and it does not show up on the Monitor
> Access Points > HiveAPs page, do the following:
– Check if the HiveAP serial number is listed in the ACL (access control list) on the Aerohive
redirection server. Log in to myhive.aerohive.com, and then click Redirector > Monitor
> HiveAP Access Control List). If not, click Enter, type its serial number in the HiveAP
Serial Number eld, and then click Save. When done, reboot the HiveAP.
– Check connectivity to Aerohive redirection server:
ping redirector.aerohive.com (Check connectivity from the HiveAP network)
capwap ping redirector.aerohive.com (Check connectivity through CAPWAP)
– Ensure that any intervening rewalls allow one of the following sets of services from the
HiveAP to HiveManager Online:
CAPWAP (UDP 12222), SSH (TCP 22), and HTTPS (TCP 443)
or
HTTP (TCP 80) and HTTPS (TCP 443)
• If a wireless client cannot form an association with an SSID, check that the client is within
range and that it is congured to use the same authentication method as the SSID. For
example, if the client is congured to use Open or WEP authentication but the SSID is
set for WPA or WPA2, the client will not be able to associate with the HiveAP. To see the
security settings for an SSID, log in to HiveManager, click Conguration>SSIDs>ssid_name
> Advanced Access Security Settings, and look at the SSID access security type, the key
management method, and the encryption method.
• If the client associates and authenticates itself, but the HiveAP cannot forward trafc,
check that the HiveAP is assigning the correct user prole and, if so, that it is also assigning
the correct VLAN. To see the user prole and VLAN that a HiveAP assigns a client, log in to
HiveManager, click Monitor > Clients > Active Clients > client_mac_address. Check the user
prole attribute and VLAN. If those are correct, then check that the client has received its
network settings through DHCP. To check connectivity to a DHCP server, click Tools > VLAN
Probe, choose the HiveAP with which the client is associated from the HIveAP drop-down list,
enter IDs for the VLAN range that you want to check. Click Start to send a DHCP DISCOVER
message, and see if it elicits a response. Also check that the VLAN conguration for the port
on the connecting switch is correct.
To remove all settings and return the conguration to its factory default settings, enter the
reset cong command or use a pin to press the Reset button, which is located near the ETH0
port on the underside of the chassis, and hold it down for at least 10 seconds.

Deployment and Conguration Tips
Using the rail mount, you can mount the HiveAP 330 or 350 to the tracks of a dropped ceiling grid.
Using the mounting plate, you can mount it to any at surface that can support its weight (HiveAP
330: 1.5 lb or 0.68 kg; HiveAP 350: 2.375 lb or 1.08 kg). Both mounting options are explained
below. (The HiveAP 330 is shown in these illustrations, but the instructions apply to both models.)
Mounting the HiveAP 330 and 350
Note: In addition to these methods, you can also mount the HiveAP on a table using the set
of four rubber feet that ship with the product. Simply peel the rubber feet off the
adhesive sheet and press them against the underside of the HiveAP in its four corners.
To mount the HiveAP 330 or 350 to a standard 15/16"-wide track (2.38 cm) in a dropped ceiling,
use one of the two rail mounts that ship with the HiveAP, depending on whether the track is ush
with the ceiling tiles or recessed. You also need a drill and—most likely—a ladder.
Nudge the ceiling tiles slightly away from the track to clear some space, and then attach the
appropriate rail mount to the ceiling track. When you have the rail mount in the correct location,
cut or drill a hole in the ceiling through which you can then pass the Ethernet and power cables.
1
Connect the cables and then attach the HiveAP to the rail mount to complete the installation.
For the HiveAP 350, attach the articulted antennas and swivel them into a vertical position
pointing downward to provide optimal coverage.
Press the the rail mount upward against the ceiling track so that the track contacts the
two pressure tabs and pushes them ush with the rail mount.
Rotate the rail mount until the
two pressure tabs click into place,
gripping the ceiling track.
With the HiveAP upside down, connect the cables (not shown). Align the two V-shaped
tabs and the security screw hole extension on the rail mount with the tab slots and
security screw cavity on the HiveAP, and press the HiveAP upward until it snaps into place.
When done, adjust the ceiling tiles back into their former position.
You can use the mounting plate to attach the HiveAP to any surface that supports its weight, and
to which you can screw or nail the plate. First, mount the plate to the surface. Then, in the open
space in the L-shaped mounting plate, make a hole in the wall so that you can pass the cables
through to the HiveAP. Finally, attach the device to the plate, connect the cables, and for the
HiveAP 350, attach the antennas.
With the two exible V-shaped tabs at
the sides of the plate extending away
from the surface, attach the mounting
plate to a secure object such as a wall,
ceiling, post, or beam.
Cut or drill a hole in the wall in the
open space in the L-shaped mounting
plate, pass the cables through to the
HiveAP, and connect them. (You can
also run the cables along the wall to
the HiveAP instead of through a hole.)
Depending on how the device is
powered and how it connects to the
network, connect a power cable
and one or two Ethernet cables.
(The cables are not shown in the
illustration.)
Align the tabs and security tab
extension on the mounting plate with
the tab slots and security screw cavity
on the HiveAP.
Push the the HiveAP against the mounting
plate until the tabs click inside the tab
slots.
For the HiveAP 350, attach either the
articulated or non-articulated antennas.
When using the articulated antennas,
orient them vertically for best coverage.
Note: There are various holes through
which you can screw or nail the
plate in place. Choose the two or
three that best suit the object to
which you are attaching it.
1
Mount the HiveAP on a wall as explained below.
2 3
4
Locking the HiveAP
To lock the HiveAP to the rail mount or mounting plate, use either a Kensington lock or the
security screw that is included with the mounting kit. To use a Kensington lock, loop the cable
attached to the lock around a secure object, insert the T-bar component of the lock into the
device lock slot on the HiveAP, and then turn the key to engage the lock mechanism.
To lock the HiveAP to the rail mount or mounting plate or to lock the USB port cover, use the
security screw, which is included in the mounting kit. You also need a drilled spanner insert
bit for size #6 security screws and a screw driver that will accept the bit. The correct bits are
available from Aerohive in sets of three (AH-ACC-SEC-BIT-330-350-3PK).
To use the security screw, follow the steps below:
If you want to hide the USB
port, attach the USB port
cover by pushing the tab on
the cover into the port.
1
Insert the security screw
through the hole in the cover
and the hole in the chassis.
Using a screwdriver with a
drilled spanner bit, fasten the
screw to the security tab extension
on the rail mount. (If you want
to expose the USB port, use the
security screw without the cover.)

Aerohive HiveAP Compliance Information
Federal Communication Commission Interference
Statement
Aerohive products that show an FCC identifier on the product label
(FCC ID: WBV-<model_name>) comply with part 15 of the FCC Rules
when operating under the following restrictions: (1) they do not cause
harmful interference, and (2) they must accept any RF interference
received, including interference that might cause an unwanted impact
on their operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for
a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of
the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by
the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to
operate this equipment. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This
device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
In compliance with FCC Part 15 regulations, the HiveAP automatically
discontinues transmission if there is no valid information to transmit or
if there is an operational failure.
Important: FCC Regulatory Warnings Notice
This equipment is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in 5 GHz
frequencies, which are shared by mobile satellite systems and
government radar systems. The FCC requires that this product only be
used indoors to reduce the potential for harmful interference with co-
channel radar that might be operating in the 5.25-5.35 or 5.47-5.725
GHz frequency ranges in the same area. The conflicting activity of
radar stations and this device can cause interference or damage to each
other. In addition, this device has a radar detection function that might
interrupt normal operations when it detects a radar signal.
To reduce the risk of interference even further, installing this device
away from windows is recommended.
DFS certification for Aerohive products is underway but is not complete
at the time of this writing (1/2011). Contact Aerohive Technical Support
for further information. After DFS certification is complete, these
statements will hold true: This equipment complies with the FCC DFS
(Dynamic Frequency Selection) rules documented in FCC 06-96 and KDB
443999. The 5 GHz radio uses channels 36 to 48 (5.180 to 5.240 GHz)
and channels 149 to 165 (5.725 to 5.825 GHz), as well as channels
within the DFS operating frequency ranges: 52 to 64 (5.25 to 5.35 GHz),
100 to 116 (5.47 to 5.59 GHz), and 132 to 140 (5.66 to 5.725 GHz). The
frequency range 5.6 - 5.65 GHz is excluded from use. The maximum
transmit power for channels from 36 to 48 is 15 dBm in the FCC region.
Because this maximum is enforced by HiveOS, the HiveAP automatically
limits the power to 15 dBm even if the setting is greater than that.
The FCC region code is set in the device during the manufacturing
process, the option to set it to any region other than FCC is disabled,
and the country code selection function has been completely removed
from all U.S. models. It is impossible for the end user to change the
region to anything other than FCC.
Only attach antennas that are certified for use with this device.
Replacing antennas with unauthorized, high-gain antennas greatly
increases the risk of interference and invalidates the FCC certification.
The use of any devices not approved by the FCC is illegal.

Countries of Operation and Conditions
of Use in the European Community
HiveAPs are intended to be operated in all countries of the European
Community. Requirements for indoor vs. outdoor operation, license
requirements and allowed channels of operation apply in some
countries as described below.
• Before operating a HiveAP, the admin or installer must properly
enter the current country code as described in Aerohive product
documentation.
Note to U.S. model owners: To comply with U.S. FCC regulations,
the country selection function has been completely removed from
all U.S. models. The above function is for non-U.S. models only.
• HiveAPs automatically limit the allowable channels determined by
the current country of operation. Incorrectly entering the country
of operation might result in illegal operation and cause harmful
interference to other systems. The admin is obligated to ensure
HiveAPs are operating according to the channel limitations,
indoor/outdoor restrictions and license requirements for each
European Community country as described in this section.
• HiveAPs can be operated indoors or outdoors in all countries of the
European Community using the 2.4 GHz band: Channels 1-13,
except where noted below:
– In Italy and Luxembourg, you must apply for a license from the
national spectrum authority to operate a HiveAP outside your
own premises and for public use or service.
– In Belgium outdoor operation is only permitted using the 2.46
to 2.4835 GHz band: Channel 13.
– In France outdoor operation is limited to the 2.454 to 2.4835
GHz band (channels 8 to 13) at a maximum of 10 mW EIRP
(effective isotropic radiated power).
– In Norway, the 2.4 GHz band cannot be used outdoors within a
20-km radius of the center of Ny-Ålesund.
– In Russia, the 2.4 GHz band is for indoor use only.
• Because radar systems use some bands in the 5 GHz spectrum,
WLAN devices operating in these bands must use DFS (Dynamic
Frequency Selection) to detect radar activity and switch channels
automatically to avoid interfering with radar operations. For the
ETSI region, the HiveAP 300 series is certified for the latest ETSI
EN 301 893 v1.5.1 DFS requirements and can use DFS channels 52
to 140 (5.26 GHz to 5.32 GHz, and 5.5 GHz to 5.7 GHz). To comply
with ETSI regulations when deploying a HiveAP 300 series device
outdoors, set the 5 GHz radio to operate on the DFS channels and
enable DFS. When deploying a HiveAP 300 series device indoors,
then the 5 GHz radio can also use channels 36 to 48 as well as the
DFS channels. The maximum transmit power for channels from 36
to 48 is 17 dBm in the ETSI region. Because this maximum is
enforced by HiveOS, the HiveAP automatically limits the power to
17 dBm even if the setting is greater than that.
• Because the frequency ranges 5.25 to 5.35 and 5.47 to 5.725 are
affected by DFS (Dynamic Frequency Selection), HiveAP 20 and 28
models block channels 52 to 64 and 100 to 140.
• The availability of some specific channels and/or operational
frequency bands are country dependent and are firmware
programmed at installation to match the intended destination.
The firmware setting is accessible by the end user. Some national
restrictions are noted below:
– In Italy and Luxembourg, you must apply for a license from the
national spectrum authority to operate a HiveAP outside your
own premises and for public use or service in the 5.15 to 5.35
GHz band (channels 36 to 64) and 5.47 to 5.725 GHz band
(channels 100 to 140).
– In Russia, you can only use the 5.15 to 5.35 GHz band at 100
mW (20 dBm) indoors, in closed industrial and warehouse
areas, and on board aircraft for local network and crew
communications during all stages of a flight and for public
WLAN access only at an altitude of 3000 meters or higher. You
can only use the 5.65 to 5.825 GHz band with 100 mW EIRP on
board aircraft at an altitude of 3000 meters or higher.
