Introducing the Trapeze
Networks Mobility System
This guide shows you how to install a Trapeze Networks™ Mobility Point™
(MP™) access point, model MP-71, in a Trapeze Networks Mobility System™
wireless LAN (WLAN).
Read this guide if you are a network administrator or other person installing MP
access points in a network.
Trapeze Networks Mobility System
The Trapeze Networks Mobility System is a system for planning and deploying a
secure wireless LAN (WLAN) in an existing wired enterprise network. The
Trapeze system provides authenticated connectivity to both wireless and wired
users in large environments such as office buildings, hospitals, and university
campuses.
The Trapeze Mobility System fulfills the three fundamental requirements of an
enterprise WLAN: It eliminates the distinction between wired and wireless
networks, allows users to work safely from anywhere (secure mobility), and
provides a comprehensive suite of intuitive tools for planning and managing the
network before and after deployment.

The Trapeze Networks Mobility System consists of the following components:
RingMaster tool suite—a full-featured graphical user interface (GUI)
application for planning, configuring, deploying, and managing a WLAN and
its users
One or more Mobility Exchange™ (MX™) switches—distributed,
intelligent machines for managing user connectivity, connecting and
powering Mobility Point (MP) access points, and connecting the WLAN to
the wired network backbone
Multiple Mobility Point (MP) access points—wireless access points (APs)
that transmit and receive radio frequency (RF) signals to and from wireless
users and connect them to an MX switch
Mobility System Software™ (MSS™)—the operating system that runs all
MX switches and MP access points in a WLAN, and is accessible through a
command-line interface (CLI), the Web View interface, or the RingMaster™
GUI

Installation Requirements and
Recommendations
For best results, follow these requirements and recommendations before installing
an MP-71 access point.
RingMaster Network Plan and Work Orders
If you are using RingMaster to plan your Trapeze Networks Mobility System
installation, you might want to create and verify a network plan for the entire
Trapeze network installation and generate an MP work order, before installing MP
access points. A network plan and the MP work orders generated from it provide
the following information about MP access point installation and configuration:
Number of MP access points required for adequate WLAN capacity in each
coverage area
Detailed installation location for each MP access point
Settings for all MP access points in the WLAN
(For information about installing RingMaster, creating and verifying a network
plan, and generating an MP work order, see the Trapeze RingMaster Users Guide
and Trapeze RingMaster Reference Manual.)

MX Switch Recommendation
Trapeze Networks recommends that you install and configure an MX switch
before installing an MP access point. If the switch is already installed and
configured for the MP access point, you can immediately verify the cable
connection when you plug the cable into the MP access point.
Hardware Connection
Placing the MP-71
1Locate the MP-71 at the center of your wireless network for better coverage
of wireless stations.
2Adjust the direction of the antennas as necessary.
Connecting the MP-71
3Connect the Ethernet cable to an MX, a PoE, or a PoE mid-span injector.
4Configuration of the MP-71 is performed from an MX or RingMaster.
