Section 5 - Conguring Access Point Services
Field Description
Max. Burst Length The Max. Burst Length is an AP EDCA parameter and only applies to trafc owing from
the AP to the client station.
This value species (in milliseconds) the maximum burst length allowed for packet bursts
on the wireless network. A packet burst is a collection of multiple frames transmitted without
header information. The decreased overhead results in higher throughput and better
performance.
Valid values for maximum burst length are 0.0 through 999.
Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) Settings
Wi-Fi MultiMedia
(WMM)
Wi-Fi MultiMedia (WMM) is enabled by default. With WMM enabled, QoS prioritization and
coordination of wireless medium access is on. With WMM enabled, QoS settings on the
UAP control downstream trafc owing from the AP to client station (AP EDCA parameters)
and the upstream trafc owing from the station to the AP (station EDCA parameters).
Disabling WMM deactivates QoS control of station EDCA parameters on upstream trafc
owing from the station to the AP.
With WMM disabled, you can still set some parameters on the downstream trafc owing
from the AP to the client station (AP EDCA parameters).
To disable WMM extensions, click Disabled.
To enable WMM extensions, click Enabled.
Station EDCA Parameters
Queue Queues are dened for different types of data transmitted from station-to-AP:
•) Data 0 (Voice) — Highest priority queue, minimum delay. Time-sensitive data such as
VoIP and streaming media are automatically sent to this queue.
•) Data 1(Video) — Highest priority queue, minimum delay. Time-sensitive video data is
automatically sent to this queue.
•) Data 2 (Best Effort) — Medium priority queue, medium throughput and delay. Most
traditional IP data is sent to this queue.
•) Data 3 (Background) — Lowest priority queue, high throughput. Bulk data that
requires maximum throughput and is not time-sensitive is sent to this queue (FTP
data, for example).
AIFS (Inter-Frame
Space)
The Arbitration Inter-Frame Spacing (AIFS) species a wait time for data frames. The wait
time is measured in slots. Valid values for AIFS are 1 through 255.
cwMin (Minimum
Contention Window)
This parameter is used by the algorithm that determines the initial random back off wait
time (window) for retry of a data transmission during a period of contention for Unied
Access Point resources. The value specied here in the Minimum Contention Window is
the upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial random back off wait time
will be determined. The rst random number generated will be a number between 0 and the
number specied here. If the rst random back off wait time expires before the data frame
is sent, a retry counter is incremented and the random back off value (window) is doubled.
Doubling will continue until the size of the random back off value reaches the number
dened in the Maximum Contention Window.
cwMax (Maximum
Contention Window)
The value specied here in the Maximum Contention Window is the upper limit (in
milliseconds) for the doubling of the random back off value. This doubling continues until
either the data frame is sent or the Maximum Contention Window size is reached.
Once the Maximum Contention Window size is reached, retries will continue until a
maximum number of retries allowed is reached.
TXOP Limit The TXOP Limit is a station EDCA parameter and only applies to trafc owing from the
client station to the AP. The Transmission Opportunity (TXOP) is an interval of time, in
milliseconds, when a WME client station has the right to initiate transmissions onto the
wireless medium (WM) towards the Unied Access Point. The TXOP Limit maximum value is
65535.
Other QoS Settings
No
Acknowledgement
Select On to specify that the AP should not acknowledge frames with QosNoAck as the
service class value.
APSD Select On to enable Automatic Power Save Delivery (APSD), which is a power management
method. APSD is recommended if VoIP phones access the network through the AP.

Enabling the Time Settings (NTP)
Use the Time Settings page to specify the Network Time Protocol (NTP) server to use to provide time and date
information to the AP or to congure the time and date information manually.
NTP is an Internet standard protocol that synchronizes computer clock times on your network. NTP servers transmit
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC, also known as Greenwich Mean Time) to their client systems. NTP sends periodic
time requests to servers, using the returned time stamp to adjust its clock. The timestamp is used to indicate the date
and time of each event in log messages.
See http://www.ntp.org for more information about NTP.

Section 6 - Conguring SNMPv3
This section describes how to congure the SNMPv3 settings on the UAP and contains the following subsections:
•) “Conguring SNMPv3 Views” on page 75
•) “Conguring SNMPv3 Groups” on page 76
•) “Conguring SNMPv3 Users” on page 77
•) “Conguring SNMPv3 Targets” on page 78
Conguring SNMPv3 Views
A MIB view is a combination of a set of view subtrees or a family of view subtrees where each view subtree is a
subtree within the managed object naming tree. You can create MIB views to control the OID range that SNMPv3
users can access.
A MIB view called “all” is created by default in the system. This view contains all management objects supported by
the system.
Note: If you create an excluded view subtree, create a corresponding included entry with the
same view name to allow subtrees outside of the excluded subtree to be included. For example, to
create a view that excludes the subtree 1.3.6.1.4, create an excluded entry with the OID 1.3.6.1.4.
Then, create an included entry with OID .1 with the same view name.
Figure 40 - SNMPv3 Views Conguration
The following table describes the elds you can congure on the SNMPv3 Views page.
Field Description
View Name Enter a name to identify the MIB view.
View names can contain up to 32 alphanumeric characters.
Type Species whether to include or exclude the view subtree or family of subtrees from the MIB
view.
OID Enter an OID string for the subtree to include or exclude from the view.
For example, the system subtree is specied by the OID string .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.
Mask The OID mask is 47 characters in length. The format of the OID mask is xx.xx.xx (.)... or
xx:xx:xx.... (:) and is 16 octets in length. Each octet is 2 hexadecimal characters separated
by either . (period) or : (colon). Only hex characters are accepted in this eld. For example,
OID mask FA.80 is 11111010.10000000.
A family mask is used to dene a family of view subtrees. The family mask indicates which
sub-identiers of the associated family OID string are signicant to the family’s denition.
A family of view subtrees allows control access to one row in a table, in a more efcient
manner.
SNMPv3 Views This eld shows the MIB views on the UAP. To remove a view, select it and click Remove.

and to save the settings.
Conguring SNMPv3 Groups
SNMPv3 groups allow you to combine users into groups of different authorization and access privileges.
By default, the UAP has two groups:
•) RO A read-only group using authentication and data encryption. Users in this group use an MD5 key/
password for authentication and a DES key/password for encryption. Both the MD5 and DES key/passwords
must be dened. By default, users of this group will have read only access to the default all MIB view, which can
be modied by the user.
•) RW A read/write group using authentication and data encryption. Users in this group use an MD5 key/
password for authentication and a DES key/password for encryption. Both the MD5 and DES key/passwords
must be dened. By default, users of this group will have read and write access to the default all MIB view,
which can be modied by the user.
RW and RO groups are dened by default.
Note: The UAP supports maximum of eight groups.
To dene additional groups, navigate to the SNMPv3 Groups page and congure the settings that the table below
describes.
Figure 41 - SNMPv3 Groups Conguration
Field Description
Name Specify a name to use to identify the group. The default group names are RW and RO.
Group names can contain up to 32 alphanumeric characters.
Security Level Select one of the following security levels for the group:
•) noAuthentication-noPrivacy — No authentication and no data encryption (no
security).
•) Authentication-noPrivacy Authentication, but no data encryption. With this security
level, users send SNMP messages that use an MD5 key/password for authentication,
but not a DES key/password for encryption.
•) Authentication-Privacy Authentication and data encryption. With this security level,
users send an MD5 key/password for authentication and a DES key/password for
encryption.
For groups that require authentication, encryption, or both, you must dene the MD5 and
DES key/passwords on the SNMPv3 Users page.
Write Views Select the write access to management objects (MIBs) for the group:
•) write-all — The group can create, alter, and delete MIBs.
•) write-none — The group is not allowed to create, alter, or delete MIBS.

Packet Capture Conguration and Settings
Wireless packet capture operates in two modes:
•) Capture le mode.
•) Remote capture mode.
For capture le mode, captured packets are stored in a le on the Access Point. The AP can transfer the le to a TFTP
server. The le is formatted in pcap format and can be examined using tools such as Wireshark and OmniPeek.
For remote capture mode, the captured packets are redirected in real time to an external PC running the Wireshark®
tool.
The AP can capture the following types of packets:
•) 802.11 packets received and transmitted on radio interfaces. Packets captured on radio interfaces include the
802.11 header.
•) 802.3 packets received and transmitted on the Ethernet interface.
•) 802.3 packets received and transmitted on the internal logical interfaces such as VAPs and WDS interfaces.
From the Packet Capture Conguration and Settings page, you can:
•) View the current packet capture status.
•) Congure packet capture parameters.
•) Congure packet le capture.
•) Congure a remote capture port.
•) Download a packet capture le.

Field Description
Capture Beacons Enable to capture the 802.11 beacons detected or transmitted by the radio.
Promiscuous
Capture
Enable to place the radio in promiscuous mode when the capture is active.
In promiscuous mode the radio receives all trafc on the channel, including trafc that is not
destined to this AP. While the radio is operating in promiscuous mode, it continues serving
associated clients. Packets not destined to the AP are not forwarded.
As soon as the capture is completed, the radio reverts to non-promiscuous mode operation.
Client Filter Enable Enable to use the WLAN client lter to capture only frames that are transmitted to, or
received from a WLAN client with a specied MAC address.
Client Filter MAC
Address
Specify a MAC address for WLAN client ltering.
Note: The MAC lter is active only when capture is performed on an 802.11 interface.

Note: Changes to packet capture conguration parameters take affect after packet capture is
restarted. Modifying the parameters while the packet capture is running doesn’t affect the current
packet capture session. In order to begin using new parameter values, an existing packet capture
session must be stopped and re-started.
Packet File Capture
In Packet File Capture mode the AP stores captured packets in the RAM le system.

Size
Specify the maximum allowed size for the capture le in KB (range 64 to 4096).
Table 49 - Packet File Capture
Remote Packet Capture
Remote Packet Capture allows you to specify a remote port as the destination for packet captures. This feature works
in conjunction with the Wireshark network analyzer tool for Windows. A packet capture server runs on the AP and
sends the captured packets via a TCP connection to the Wireshark tool.
A Windows PC running the Wireshark tool allows you to display, log, and analyze captured trafc.
When the remote capture mode is in use, the AP doesn’t store any captured data locally in its le system.
Your can trace up to ve interfaces on the AP at the same time. However, you must start a separate Wireshark session
for each interface. You can congure the IP port number used for connecting Wireshark to the AP. The default port
number is 2002. The system uses 5 consecutive port numbers starting with the congured port for the packet capture
sessions.
If a rewall is installed between the Wireshark PC and the AP, these ports must be allowed to pass through the
rewall. The rewall must also be congured to allow the Wireshark PC to initiate TCP connection to the AP.
To congure Wireshark to use the AP as the source for captured packets, you must specify the remote interface in the
“Capture Options” menu. For example to capture packets on an AP with IP address 192.168.1.10 on radio 1 using the
default IP port, specify the following interface:
rpcap://192.168.1.10/radio1
Unied Access Point Administrator’s Guide
Unied Access Point Administrator’s Guide
Page 86
May 2016
Section 7 - Maintaining the Access Point
To capture packets on the Ethernet interface of the AP and VAP0 on radio 1 using IP port 58000, start two Wireshark
sessions and specify the following interfaces:
rpcap://192.168.1.10:58000/eth0
rpcap://192.168.1.10:58000/wlan0
When you are capturing trafc on the radio interface, you can disable beacon capture, but other 802.11 control frames
are still sent to Wireshark. You can set up a display lter to show only:
•) Data frames in the trace.
•) Trafc on specic BSSIDs.
•) Trafc between two clients.
Some examples of useful display lters are:
•) Exclude beacons and ACK/RTS/CTS frames:
!(wlan.fc.type_subtype == 8 || wlan.fc.type == 1)
•) Data frames only:
wlan.fc.type == 2
•) Trafc on a specic BSSID:
wlan.bssid == 00:02:bc:00:17:d0
•) All trafc to and from a specic client:
wlan.addr == 00:00:e8:4e:5f:8e
In remote capture mode, trafc is sent to the PC running Wireshark via one of the network interfaces. Depending on
where the Wireshark tool is located the trafc can be sent on an Ethernet interface or one of the radios. In order to
avoid a trafc ood caused by tracing the trace packets, the AP automatically installs a capture lter to lter out all
packets destined to the Wireshark application. For example if the Wireshark IP port is congured to be 58000 then the
following capture lter is automatically installed on the AP:
not portrange 58000-58004.
Enabling the packet capture feature impacts performance of the AP and can create a security issue (unauthorized
clients may be able to connect to the AP and trace user data). The AP performance is negatively impacted even if
there is no active Wireshark session with the AP. The performance is negatively impacted to a greater extent when
packet capture is in progress.
Due to performance and security issues, the packet capture mode is not saved in NVRAM on the AP; if the AP resets,
the capture mode is disabled and the you must re-enable it in order to resume capturing trafc. Packet capture
parameters (other than mode) are saved in NVRAM.
In order to minimize performance impact on the AP while trafc capture is in progress, you should install capture lters
to limit which trafc is sent to the Wireshark tool. When capturing 802.11 trafc, large portion of the captured frames
tend to be beacons (typically sent every 100ms by all Access Points). Although Wireshark supports a display lter for
beacon frames, it does not support a capture lter to prevent the AP from forwarding captured beacon packets to the
Wireshark tool. In order to reduce performance impact of capturing the 802.11 beacons, you can disable the capture
beacons mode.
The remote packet capture facility is a standard feature of the Wireshark tool for Windows.
Note: Remote packet capture is not standard on the Linux version of Wireshark; the Linux version
doesn’t work with the AP.
Wireshark is an open source tool and is available for free; it can be downloaded from http://www.wireshark.org.

Section 8 - Conguring Client Quality of Service (QoS)
Section 8 - Conguring Client Quality of Service (QoS)
This section describes how to congure QoS settings that affect trafc from the wireless clients to the AP. By using the
UAP Client QoS features, you can limit bandwidth and apply ACLs and DiffServ policies to the wireless interface. If a
VAP uses WPA Enterprise security to authenticate clients, you can congure the RADIUS server to provide per-client
QoS information.
This section describes the following features:
•) “Conguring VAP QoS Parameters” on page 88
•) “Managing Client QoS ACLs” on page 89
•) “Creating a DiffServ Class Map” on page 95
•) “Creating a DiffServ Policy Map” on page 100
•) “Conguring RADIUS-Assigned Client QoS Parameters” on page 102
Conguring VAP QoS Parameters
The client QoS features on the UAP provide additional control over certain QoS aspects of wireless clients that
connect to the network, such as the amount of bandwidth an individual client is allowed to send and receive. To control
general categories of trafc, such as HTTP trafc or trafc from a specic subnet, you can congure ACLs and assign
them to one or more VAPs.
In addition to controlling general trafc categories, Client QoS allows you to congure per-client conditioning of various
micro-ows through Differentiated Services (DiffServ). DiffServ policies are a useful tool for establishing general micro-
ow denition and treatment characteristics that can be applied to each wireless client, both inbound and outbound,
when it is authenticated on the network.
From the VAP QoS Parameters page, you can enable the Client QoS feature, specify client bandwidth limits, and
select the ACLs and DiffServ policies to use as default values for clients associated with the VAP when the client does
not have their own attributes dened by a RADIUS server.
To congure the Client QoS administrative mode and to congure the QoS settings for a VAP, click the VAP QoS
Parameters tab.

Enter the maximum allowed transmission rate from the AP to the wireless client in bits per
second. The valid range is 0 – 429496000 bits/sec.
The value you enter must be a multiple of 8000 bits/sec, in other words, the value must be
n × 8000 bits/sec, where n = 0, 1, 2, 3... If you attempt to set the limit to a value that is not
a multiple of 8000 bits/sec, the conguration will be rejected. A value of 0 means that the
bandwidth maximum limit is not enforced in this direction.
Bandwidth Limit Up Enter the maximum allowed client transmission rate to the AP in bits per second. The valid
range is 0 – 4294967295 bps.
The value you enter must be n × 8000 bits/sec, where n = 0, 1, 2, 3... If you attempt to set
the limit to a value that is not a multiple of 8000 bits/sec, the conguration will be rejected. A
value of 0 means that the bandwidth maximum limit is not enforced in this direction.
ACL Type Down Select the type of ACL to apply to trafc in the outbound (down) direction, which can be one
of the following:
•) IPv4: The ACL examines IPv4 packets for matches to ACL rules
•) IPv6: The ACL examines IPv6 packets for matches to ACL rules
•) MAC: The ACL examines layer 2 frames for matches to ACL rules
ACL Name Down Select the name of the ACL applied to trafc in the outbound (down) direction.
After switching the packet or frame to the outbound interface, the ACL’s rules are checked
for a match. The packet or frame is transmitted if it is permitted, and discarded if it is denied.
ACL Type Up Select the type of ACL to apply to trafc in the inbound (up) direction, which can be one of
the following:
•) IPv4: The ACL examines IPv4 packets for matches to ACL rules
•) IPv6: The ACL examines IPv6 packets for matches to ACL rules
•) MAC: The ACL examines layer 2 frames for matches to ACL rules
ACL Name Up Select the name of the ACL applied to trafc entering the AP in the inbound (up) direction.
When a packet or frame is received by the AP, the ACL’s rules are checked for a match. The
packet or frame is processed if it is permitted, and discarded if it is denied.
DiffServ Policy
Down
Select the name of the DiffServ policy applied to trafc from the AP in the outbound (down)
direction.
DiffServ Policy Up Select the name of the DiffServ policy applied to trafc sent to the AP in the inbound (up)
direction.
Table 52 - VAP QoS Parameters
Managing Client QoS ACLs
ACLs are a collection of permit and deny conditions, called rules, that provide security by blocking unauthorized
users and allowing authorized users to access specic resources. ACLs can block any unwarranted attempts to reach
network resources.
The UAP supports up to 50 IPv4, IPv6, and MAC ACLs.
IPv4 and IPv6 ACLs
IP ACLs classify trafc for Layers 3 and 4.
Each ACL is a set of up to 10 rules applied to trafc sent from a wireless client or to be received by a wireless client.
Each rule species whether the contents of a given eld should be used to permit or deny access to the network.
Rules can be based on various criteria and may apply to one ore more elds within a packet, such as the source or
destination IP address, the source or destination L4 port, or the protocol carried in the packet.

Section 8 - Conguring Client Quality of Service (QoS)
MAC ACLs
MAC ACLs are Layer 2 ACLs. You can congure the rules to inspect elds of a frame such as the source or
destination MAC address, the VLAN ID, or the Class of Service 802.1p priority. When a frame enters or exits the AP
port (depending on whether the ACL is applied in the up or down direction), the AP inspects the frame and checks the
ACL rules against the content of the frame. If any of the rules match the content, a permit or deny action is taken on
the frame.
ACL Conguration Process
Congure ACLs and rules on the Client QoS ACL page (steps 1–5), and then apply the rules to a specied VAP on
the AP QoS Parameters page (step 6).
Use the following general steps to congure ACLs:
1.) Specify a name for the ACL.
2.) Select the type of ACL to add.
3.) Add the ACL.
4.) Add new rules to the ACL.
5.) Congure the match criteria for the rules.
6.) Apply the ACL to one or more VAPs.
For an example of how to congure an ACL, see “ACL Conguration Process” on page 90.
To congure an ACL, click the Client QoS ACL tab.
The elds to congure ACL rules appear only after you have created an ACL. The following image shows the
conguration of a new rule for the IPv4 ACL named acl1. The rule prevents HTTP trafc from all clients in the
192.168.20.0 network from being forwarded.

Select the ACL to congure with the new rule. The list contains all ACLs added in the ACL
Conguration section.
Rule To congure a new rule to add to the selected ACL, select New Rule. To add an existing rule
to an ACL or to modify a rule, select the rule number.
When an ACL has multiple rules, the rules are applied to the packet or frame in the order in
which you add them to the ACL. There is an implicit deny all rule as the nal rule.
Action Species whether the ACL rule permits or denies an action.
•) When you select Permit, the rule allows all trafc that meets the rule criteria to enter or
exit the AP (depending on the ACL direction you select). Trafc that does not meet the
criteria is dropped.
•) When you select Deny, the rule blocks all trafc that meets the rule criteria from
entering or exiting the AP (depending on the ACL direction you select). Trafc that
does not meet the criteria is forwarded unless this rule is the nal rule. Because there
is an implicit deny all rule at the end of every ACL, trafc that is not explicitly permitted
is dropped.
Match Every Indicates that the rule, which either has a permit or deny action, will match the frame or
packet regardless of its contents.
If you select this eld, you cannot congure any additional match criteria. The Match Every
option is selected by default for a new rule. You must clear the option to congure other
match elds.

Source IP Address Select this eld to require a packet’s source IP address to match the address listed here.
Enter an IP address in the appropriate eld to apply this criteria.
Wild Card Mask Species the source IP address wildcard mask.
The wild card masks determines which bits are used and which bits are ignored. A wild card
mask of 255.255.255.255 indicates that no bit is important. A wildcard of 0.0.0.0 indicates
that all of the bits are important. This eld is required when Source IP Address is checked.
A wild card mask is, in essence, the inverse of a subnet mask. For example, To match the
criteria to a single host address, use a wildcard mask of 0.0.0.0. To match the criteria to a
24-bit subnet (for example 192.168.10.0/24), use a wild card mask of 0.0.0.255.

Creating a DiffServ Class Map
The Client QoS feature contains Differentiated Services (DiffServ) support that allows trafc to be classied into
streams and given certain QoS treatment in accordance with dened per-hop behaviours.
Standard IP-based networks are designed to provide best effort data delivery service. Best effort service implies that
the network delivers the data in a timely fashion, although there is no guarantee that it will. During times of congestion,
packets may be delayed, sent sporadically, or dropped. For typical Internet applications, such as e-mail and le
transfer, a slight degradation in service is acceptable and in many cases unnoticeable. However, on applications with
strict timing requirements, such as voice or multimedia, any degradation of service has undesirable effects.
By classifying the trafc and creating policies that dene how to handle these trafc classes, you can make sure that
time-sensitive trafc is given precedence over other trafc.
The UAP supports up to 50 Class Maps.

Section 8 - Conguring Client Quality of Service (QoS)
Dening DiffServ
To use DiffServ for Client QoS, use the Class Map and Policy Map pages to dene the following categories and their
criteria:
•) Class: create classes and dene class criteria
•) Policy: create policies, associate classes with policies, and dene policy statements
Once you dene the class and associate it with a policy, apply the policy to a specied VAP on the VAP QoS
Parameters page.
Packets are classied and processed based on dened criteria. The classication criteria is dened by a class. The
processing is dened by a policy’s attributes. Policy attributes may be dened on a per-class instance basis, and it is
these attributes that are applied when a match occurs. A policy can contain multiple classes. When the policy is active,
the actions taken depend on which class matches the packet.
Packet processing begins by testing the class match criteria for a packet. A policy is applied to a packet when a class
match within that policy is found. DiffServ is supported for IPv4 and IPv6 packets.
Use the Class Map page to add a new Diffserv class name, or to rename or delete an existing class, and dene the
criteria to associate with the DiffServ class.
To congure a DiffServ Class Map, click the Class Map tab.
Note: The Class Map page displays the Match Criteria Conguration elds only if a Class Map
has been created. To create a Class Map, enter a name in the Class Map Name eld and click

Conguring RADIUS-Assigned Client QoS Parameters
If a VAP is congured to use WPA Enterprise security, you can include client QoS information in the client database
on the RADIUS server. When a client successfully authenticates, the RADIUS server can include bandwidth limits and
identify the ACLs and DiffServ policies to apply to the specic wireless client. ACLs and DiffServ policies referenced
in the RADIUS client database must match the names of the ACLs and DiffServ policies congured on the AP to be
successfully applied to the wireless clients.
The following table describes the QoS attributes that can be included in the client’s RADIUS server entry. If a wireless
client successfully authenticates using WPA Enterprise, each QoS RADIUS attribute that exists for the client is sent
to the AP for processing. The attributes are optional and do not need to be present in the client entry. If the attribute is
not present, the Client QoS setting on the AP is used.

Section 9 - Clustering Multiple APs
Section 9 - Clustering Multiple APs
The UAP supports AP clusters. A cluster provides a single point of administration and lets you view, deploy, congure,
and secure the wireless network as a single entity rather than a series of separate wireless devices.
Managing Cluster Access Points in the Cluster
The AP cluster is a dynamic, conguration-aware group of APs in the same subnet of a network. Each cluster
can have up to 8 members. Only one cluster per wireless network is supported; however, a network subnet can
have multiple clusters. Clusters can share various conguration information, such as VAP settings and QoS queue
parameters.
A cluster can be formed between two APs if the following conditions are met:
•) The APs are identical models.
•) The APs are connected on the same bridged segment.
•) The APs joining the cluster have the same Cluster Name.
•) Clustering mode is enabled on both APs.
Note: For two APs to be in the same cluster, they do not need to have the same number of radios;
however, the supported capabilities of the radios should be same.
Note: DWL-6700AP doesn’t support clustering.
Clustering APs
Only identical models may be clustered together. For example, the DWL-2600AP can only form a cluster with other
DWL-2600APs.
Viewing and Conguring Cluster Members
The Access Points page allows you to start or stop clustering on an AP, view the cluster members, and congure the
location and cluster name for a cluster member. From the Access Points page, you can also click the IP address of
each cluster member to navigate to conguration settings and data on an access point in the cluster.
To view information about cluster members and to congure the location and cluster of an individual member, click the
Access Points tab.
The following gure shows the Cluster > Access Points page when clustering is not enabled.

The address shown here is the MAC address for the bridge (br0). This is the address by
which the AP is known externally to other networks.
IP Address Species the IP address for the access point.
Each IP address is a link to the Administration Web pages for that access point. You can
use the links to navigate to the Administration Web pages for a specic access point. This is
useful for viewing data on a specic access point to make sure a cluster member is picking
up cluster conguration changes, to congure advanced settings on a particular access
point, or to switch a standalone access point to cluster mode.
Table 58 - Access Points in the Cluster
The following table describes the cluster information to congure for an individual member. The clustering options are
read-only when clustering is enabled. To congure the clustering options, you must stop clustering.
Field Description
Location Enter a description of where the access point is physically located.
Cluster Name Enter the name of the cluster for the AP to join.
The cluster name is not sent to other APs in the cluster. You must congure the same cluster
name on each AP that is a member of the cluster. The cluster name must be unique for each
cluster you congure on the network.
Clustering IP
Version
Specify the IP version that the APs in the cluster use to communicate with each other.

Removing an Access Point from the Cluster
To remove an access point from the cluster, do the following.
1.) Go to the Administration Web pages for the clustered access point.
The Administration Web pages for the standalone access point are displayed.
2.) Click the Cluster > Access Points link in the Administration pages.
3.) Click Stop Clustering.
4.) The change will be reected under Status for that access point; the access point will now show as stand-alone
(instead of cluster).
Adding an Access Point to a Cluster
To add an access point that is currently in standalone mode back into a cluster, do the following.
1.) Go to the Administration Web pages for the standalone access point.
2.) Click the Cluster > Access Points link in the Administration pages for the stand-alone access point.
The Access Points page for a standalone access point indicates that the current mode is standalone.
3.) Type the name or location of the AP in the Location eld to identify the AP within the cluster.
4.) Type the name of the cluster for the AP to join in the Cluster Name eld.
5.) Click Start Clustering.
6.) The access point is now a cluster member. Its Status (Mode) on the Cluster > Access Points page now
indicates Cluster instead of Not Clustered.
Navigating to Conguration Information for a Specic AP
In general, the UAP is designed for central management of clustered access points. For access points in a cluster,
all access points in the cluster reect the same conguration. In this case, it does not matter which access point you
actually connect to for administration.
There may be situations, however, when you want to view or manage information on a particular access point. For
example, you might want to check status information such as client associations or events for an access point. In this
case, you can navigate to the Administration Web interface for individual access points by clicking the IP address links
on the Access Points page.
All clustered access points are shown on the Cluster > Access Points page. To navigate to clustered access points,
you can simply click on the IP address for a specic cluster member shown in the list.
Navigating to an AP by Using its IP Address in a URL
You can also link to the Administration Web pages of a specic access point, by entering the IP address for that
access point as a URL directly into a Web browser address bar in the following form:
http://IPAddressOfAccessPoint
where IPAddressOfAccessPoint is the address of the particular access point you want to monitor or congure.
Managing Cluster Sessions
The Sessions page shows information about client stations associated with access points in the cluster. Each client is
identied by its MAC address, along with the AP (location) to which it is currently connected.
To view a particular statistic for client sessions, select an item from the Display drop-down list and click Go. You can
view information about idle time, data rate, signal strength and so on; all of which are described in detail in the table
below.

May 2016
Section 9 - Clustering Multiple APs
A session in this context is the period of time in which a user on a client device (station) with a unique MAC address
maintains a connection with the wireless network. The session begins when the client logs on to the network, and the
session ends when the client either logs off intentionally or loses the connection for some other reason.
Note: A session is not the same as an association, which describes a client connection to a
particular access point. A client network connection can shift from one clustered AP to another
within the context of the same session. A client station can roam between APs and maintain the
session.
To manage sessions associated with the cluster, click Cluster > Sessions.
Figure 65 - Manage Sessions Associated With The Cluster
Details about the session information shown is described in the following table.
Field Description
AP Location Indicates the location of the access point.
This is derived from the location description specied on the Basic Settings page.
User MAC Indicates the MAC address of the wireless client device.
A MAC address is a hardware address that uniquely identies each node of a network.
Idle Indicates the amount of time this station has remained inactive.
A station is considered to be idle when it is not receiving or transmitting data.
Rate The speed at which this access point is transferring data to the specied client.
The data transmission rate is measured in megabits per second (Mbps).
This value should fall within the range of the advertised rate set for the mode in use on the
access point. For example, 6 to 54 Mbps for 802.11a.
Signal Indicates the strength of the radio frequency (RF) signal the client receives from the access
point.
The measure used for this is a value known as Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI),
and will be a value between 0 and 100.
RSSI is determined by a mechanism implemented on the network interface card (NIC) of the
client station.
Rx Total Indicates number of total packets received by the client during the current session.
Tx Total Indicates number of total packets transmitted to the client during this session.
Error Rate Indicates the percentage of time frames are dropped during transmission on this access
point.
Table 60 - Session Management
Sorting Session Information
To sort the information shown in the tables by a particular indicator, click the column label by which you want to order
things. For example, if you want to see the table rows ordered by signal strength, click the Signal column label. The
entries will be sorted by signal strength.

Section 9 - Clustering Multiple APs
Conguring and Viewing Channel Management Settings
When Channel Management is enabled, the UAP automatically assigns radio channels used by clustered access
points. The automatic channel assignment reduces mutual interference (or interference with other access points
outside of its cluster) and maximizes Wi-Fi bandwidth to help maintain the efciency of communication over the
wireless network.
You must start channel management to get automatic channel assignments; it is disabled by default on a new AP.
At a specied interval, the Channel Manager maps APs to channel use and measures interference levels in the
cluster. If signicant channel interference is detected, the Channel Manager automatically re-assigns some or all of
the APs to new channels per an efciency algorithm (or automated channel plan). If the Channel Manager determines
that a change is necessary, that information is sent to all members of the cluster and a syslog message is generated
indicating the sender AP, new and old channel assignments.
The Channel Management page shows previous, current, and planned channel assignments for clustered access
points. By default, automatic channel assignment is disabled. You can start channel management to optimize channel
usage across the cluster on a scheduled interval.
To congure and view the channel assignments for the cluster members, click the Channel Management tab.
Figure 66 - Automatically Manage Channel Assignments
From this page, you can view channel assignments for all APs in the cluster and stop or start automatic channel
management. By using the Advanced settings on the page, you can modify the interference reduction potential that
triggers channel re-assignment, change the schedule for automatic updates, and re-congure the channel set used for
assignments.
Stopping/Starting Automatic Channel Assignment
By default, automatic channel assignment is disabled (off).
Note: Channel Management overrides the default cluster behavior, which is to synchronize radio
channels of all APs across a cluster. When Channel Management is enabled, the radio Channel is
not synced across the cluster to other APs.
•) Click Start to resume automatic channel assignment.
When automatic channel assignment is enabled, the Channel Manager periodically maps radio channels used
by clustered access points and, if necessary, re-assigns channels on clustered APs to reduce interference (with
cluster members or other APs outside the cluster).
•) Click Stop to stop automatic channel assignment. (No channel usage maps or channel re-assignments will be
made. Only manual updates will affect the channel assignment.)

Section 9 - Clustering Multiple APs
Viewing Current Channel Assignments and Setting Locks
The Current Channel Assignments section shows a list of all access points in the cluster by IP Address. The display
shows the band on which each AP is broadcasting (a/b/g/n), the current channel used by each AP, and an option to
lock an AP on its current radio channel so that it cannot be re-assigned to another.
The following table provides details about Current Channel Assignments.
Field Description
IP Address Species the IP Address for the access point.
Radio Identies the MAC address of the radio.
Band Indicates the band on which the access point is broadcasting.
Current Indicates the radio Channel on which this access point is currently broadcasting.
Status Shows whether the radio is up (on) or down (off).
Locked Click Locked to force the access point to remain on the current channel.
When Locked is selected (enabled) for an access point, automated channel management
plans will not re-assign the AP to a different channel as a part of the optimization strategy.
Instead, APs with locked channels will be factored in as requirements for the plan.
If you click Apply, you will see that locked APs show the same channel for the Current
Channel and Proposed Channel elds. Locked APs will keep their current channels.
Table 61 - Channel Assignments
Viewing the Last Proposed Set of Changes
The Proposed Channel Assignments shows the last channel plan. The plan lists all access points in the cluster by IP
Address, and shows the current and proposed channels for each AP. Locked channels will not be re-assigned and the
optimization of channel distribution among APs will take into account the fact that locked APs must remain on their
current channels. APs that are not locked may be assigned to different channels than they were previously using,
depending on the results of the plan.
Field Description
IP Address Species the IP Address for the access point.
Radio Indicates the radio channel on which this access point is currently broadcasting.
Proposed Channel Indicates the radio channel to which this access point would be re-assigned if the Channel
Plan is executed.
Table 62 - Last Proposed Changes
Conguring Advanced Settings
The advanced settings allow you to customize and schedule the channel plan for the cluster. If you use Channel
Management as provided (without updating Advanced Settings), channels are automatically ne-tuned once every
hour if interference can be reduced by 25 percent or more. Channels will be re-assigned even if the network is busy.
The appropriate channel sets will be used (b/g for APs using IEEE 802.11b/g and a for APs using IEEE 802.11a).
The default settings are designed to satisfy most scenarios where you would need to implement channel
management.
Use Advanced Settings to modify the interference reduction potential that triggers channel re-assignment, change
the schedule for automatic updates, and re-congure the channel set used for assignments. If there are no elds
showing in the Advanced section, click the toggle button to display the settings that modify timing and details of the
channel planning algorithm.

Use the drop-down menu to choose percentages ranging from 5 percent to 75 percent.
This setting lets you set a gating factor for channel re-assignment so that the network is not
continually disrupted for minimal gains in efciency.
For example, if channel interference must be reduced by 75 percent and the proposed
channel assignments will only reduce interference by 30 percent, then channels will not be
re-assigned. However; if you re-set the minimal channel interference benet to 25 percent
and click Apply, the proposed channel plan will be implemented and channels re-assigned
as needed.

Viewing Wireless Neighborhood Information
The Wireless Neighborhood shows up to 20 access points per radio within range of every member of the cluster,
shows which access points are within range of which cluster members, and distinguishes between cluster members
and non-members.
Note: The Wireless Neighborhood page shows up to 20 access points per radio. To see all the
access points detected on a given cluster access point, navigate to that cluster member’s web
interface and go to the Status > Neighboring Access Points page.
For each neighbor access point, the Wireless Neighborhood view shows identifying information (SSID or Network
Name, IP Address, MAC address) along with radio statistics (signal strength, channel, beacon interval). You can click
on an AP to get additional statistics about the APs in radio range of the currently selected AP.
The Wireless Neighborhood view can help you:
•) Detect and locate unexpected (or rogue) access points in a wireless domain so that you can take action to limit
associated risks
•) Verify coverage expectations. By assessing which APs are visible at what signal strength from other APs, you
can verify that the deployment meets your planning goals.
•) Detect faults. Unexpected changes in the coverage pattern are evident at a glance in the color coded table.

•) In cluster — Shows only neighbor APs that are members of the cluster
•) Not in cluster — Shows only neighbor APs that are not cluster members
•) Both — Shows all neighbor APs (cluster members and non-members)
Cluster The Cluster list at the top of the table shows IP addresses for all access points in the cluster.
(This is the same list of cluster members shown on the Cluster > Access Points tab.)
If there is only one AP in the cluster, only a single IP address column will be displayed here;
indicating that the AP is clustered with itself.
You can click on an IP address to view more details on a particular AP.
Neighbors Access points which are neighbors of one or more of the clustered APs are listed in the left
column by SSID (Network Name).
An access point which is detected as a neighbor of a cluster member can also be a cluster
member itself. Neighbors who are also cluster members are always shown at the top of the
list with a heavy bar above and include a location indicator.
The colored bars to the right of each AP in the Neighbors list shows the signal strength for
each of the neighbor APs as detected by the cluster member whose IP address is shown at
the top of the column.
The color of the bar indicates the signal strength:
•) Dark Blue Bar A dark blue bar and a high signal strength number (for example 50)
indicates good signal strength detected from the Neighbor seen by the AP whose IP
address is listed above that column.
•) Lighter Blue Bar A lighter blue bar and a lower signal strength number (for example
20 or lower) indicates medium or weak signal strength from the Neighbor seen by the
AP whose IP address is listed above that column
•) White Bar A white bar and the number 0 indicates that a neighboring AP that was
detected by one of the cluster members cannot be detected by the AP whose IP
address if listed above that column.
•) Light Gray Bar A light gray bar and no signal strength number indicates a Neighbor
that is detected by other cluster members but not by the AP whose IP address is listed
above that column.
•) Dark Gray Bar A dark gray bar and no signal strength number indicates this is the
AP whose IP address is listed above that column (since it is not applicable to show
how well the AP can detect itself).

Conguring Client QoS
This example shows how to enable client QoS, congure an ACL and a DiffServ policy on the AP, and to apply the
ACL and the Policy to trafc transmitted from clients associated with VAP 2 and received by the AP.
The IPv4 ACL is named acl1 and contains two rules. The rst rule allows HTTP trafc from the 192.168.1.0 subnet.
The second rule allows all IP trafc from the management station (192.168.1.23). All other trafc is denied due to the
implicit deny all rule at the end of the ACL. The ACL is applied to the inbound interface on the AP so that packets are
checked when the AP receives trafc from associated clients.
The DiffServ policy in this example shows how to establish default DiffServ behavior for clients associating with the
VAP that do not obtain a DiffServ policy name through the RADIUS server. Voice trafc (UDP packets) received from
clients in the 192.168.1.0 subnet that has the VoIP server as its destination address (192.168.2.200), is marked with
the IP DSCP value for expedited forwarding so that it takes priority over other trafc.
