The device works in conjunction with the Ortronics Wireless Controller and can act as a wireless access point or air monitor. As a wireless Access Point (AP), the Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO provides transparent, secure, high-speed data communications between wireless network devices (fixed, portable, or mobile computers with IEEE 802.11a and IEEE 802.11b/g wireless adapters) and the wired LAN. As a wireless Air Monitor (AM), the Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO enhances wireless networks by collecting statistics, monitoring traffic, detecting intrusions, enforcing security policies, balancing wireless traffic load, self-healing coverage gaps, and more.

Internal Antennas for Wireless Communication Introduction Chapter 1 Overview of Ortronics AP Setup Process Setting up an Ortronics AP typically consists of four stages: WLAN Planning—The administrator determines how many Ortronics APs will be needed for their wireless network strategy and where they will be deployed. This can be easily accomplished using Ortronics’ automated RF Plan site-survey software (available separately as part of the Ortronics Wireless Controller). AP Provisioning—Provisioning provides each Ortronics AP with initial settings that allow it to locate the host Ortronics Wireless Controller. Depending on the network topology and services, AP provisioning can be performed manually for each AP or plug-and-play for batches of APs. AP provisioning is discussed in 5. AP Deployment—Once provisioned, the AP can be physically installed at its intended place of operation. AP deployment is covered in 13. AP Configuration—The administrator defines the operational behavior for each Ortronics AP, such as RF characteristics and security features. For AP configuration information, refer to the Ortronics Wireless Software User’s Guide. Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO Part OR-71601435 Rev 02 Draft 2006 CHAPTER 2 Provisioning Access Points Access Points are radio broadcast devices and as such are subject to governmental regulation. Network administrators responsible for the configuration and operation of Access Points must comply with local broadcast regulations. Specifically, Access Points must use channel assignment appropriate to the location in which the Access Point will be used. Ortronics, in compliance with governmental requirements, has designed the Wi-Jack DUO such that only authorized network administrators can change these settings. For more information on Wi-Jack DUO configuration, refer to the Ortronics Wireless Software User’s Guide. Provisioning provides the AP with initial network settings that allow it to locate the host Ortronics Wireless Controller. The following provisioning methods (listed in the order of preference recommended by Ortronics) are available: z Plug and Play—Also known as the Discovery Protocol. This is the easiest method for AP provisioning. With plug and play, Ortronics APs can be connected to the network and brought into operation automatically. Although plug and play requires no manual intervention for the APs, this method does require specific services to be configured on your network in advance. z AP Provisioning—Using this AP programming mode, AP configuration parameters are defined on the Wireless Controller (using the CLI or Web interface) and then uploaded to the APs. This method can be used for adding Ortronics APs to a highly customized network, or greatly simplified for the most common provisioning. z Manual Provisioning—APs can be individually provisioned using a serial console terminal connected to the AP. Although this method is complex and requires considerable care, manual provisioning can be used in almost any scenario, with or without access to the Wireless Controller. Note Manual provisioning is intended for use when no Ortronics Wireless Controller is available, and is not generally recommended as the primary method of AP provisioning. Plug and play or AP programming mode are the preferred provisioning methods. Provisioning Access Points Chapter 2 Each of these three methods is explained in the following sections. Use these procedures for initial provisioning of APs. To change the configuration for APs that have already been provisioned, go to Maintenance > Program AP > Re-Provision. See the Ortronics Wireless Software User’s Guide for more information on reprovisioning existing APs. Discovery Protocol The Discovery Protocol is a plug and play provisioning tool for Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO. The Discovery Protocol performs two tasks: z Obtains the IP address of the TFTP server from which it downloads the AP boot image z It discovers the IP address of the master Ortronics Wireless Controller in the network from which the AP can download its configuration. The address of the TFTP server that the protocol discovers is the equivalent of the BOOTROM environment variable serverip. The IP address of the Ortronics Wireless Controller is the equivalent of the environment variable master. The protocol can discover these values using DHCP or by discovery. In the case of DHCP, the discovery protocol relies on a DHCP server which is configured to return the IP address of the master Controller using the Vendor Specific Options in DHCP. To facilitate the discovery protocol, Ortronics APs include this Vendor Specific Option in the requested Option list, and if the DHCP server is configured to return the IP address of the Master switch, the IP address will be a part of the DHCP response. This is used by the AP to get its image as well as its configuration. Discovery of the serverip and master variables is necessary when the DHCP response does not include the Vendor Specific option. The AP attempts to discover an Ortronics Master Wireless Controller by sending multicast packets and broadcast packets on its subnet. To use the discovery method, the ADP discovery mechanism needs to be enabled on the Ortronics Master Wireless Controller (using the adp discovery enable command). If multicast routing is enabled in the IP network between the AP and the Master Wireless Controller (which can be any one or more Ortronics Wireless Controllers in the network), the IGMP-Join option should be enabled on the Ortronics Wireless Controller (using the adp igmp-join enable command). If multicast routing is not enabled on the network, the Ortronics Wireless Controllers need to be on the same broadcast domain as the AP or an “IP Helper” must be configured to direct the broadcast discovery protocol packets to the Ortronics Wireless Controller. Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO Installation Guide Part OR-71601435 Rev 02 Draft 2006 Once these discovery prerequisites are met, the switch will respond to APs with the IP address of the Ortronics Master Wireless Protocol. The APs can then obtain their image and configuration. To enable Discovery Protocol on an Ortronics Wireless Controller, enter: (A5000) (config) #adp discovery enable To enable IGMP-Join on an ADP multicast group on an Ortronics Wireless Controller, enter: (A5000) (config) #adp igmp-join enable Note If you have location-specific configurations for your Access Points, you will need to apply this configuration information using AP Reprovisioning. Refer to the Ortronics Wireless Software User’s Guide for details on AP Reprovisioning and see the feature description below. AP Reprovisioning AP Reprovisioning is the process by which APs are assigned, for example, location codes. Location codes are important for recalibration and triangulation. For details on AP Reprovisioning, see the Ortronics Wireless Software User’s Guide. Provisioning Access Points Chapter 2 AP Provisioning AP Provisioning is useful for brand new APs with default configurations. To perform AP Provisioning from the GUI: Go to Maintenance > Program AP. On this window, there are two tabs: Provisioning and Reprovisioning. The Provisioning tab is selected by default. FIGURE 2-1 Provisioning Tab Configure the APs IP address on the Subnet and the Netmask. This is the subnet from which the AP gets an IP during provisioning. Select the Port or Port Range for provisioning. To set the Port Range, select the first and the last ports of your range. All the ports in between are automatically selected. (Ports have to be sequentially assigned.) Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO Installation Guide Part OR-71601435 Rev 02 Draft 2006 4 Enter the required information and click Enable.The Port Range screen displays. FIGURE 2-2 Port Range Screen Plug the AP into one of the ports configured for provisioning. If your AP is already plugged into the port, unplug it and plug it in again. If AP is connected through PoE, enter poe off followed by poe on. The AP will come up with an IP from the provisioning subnet After the AP comes up it should be in the provisioning list. Provisioning list shows the list of APs which are plugged into the provisioning ports. Provisioning Access Points Chapter 2 6 Click the Refresh link (not the browser Refresh option) to see if the AP entry has displayed. (This might take a moment.) If you cannot see the entry after 1-2 minutes, click Refresh again. The Clear Table button appears after an entry in the list appears. To erase all the table entries, click Clear Table. (You cannot clear selected entries.) If a number of APs are provisioned and you click Clear Table, only the entries which come up afterwards can be provisioned. If the entry does not show up in the AP list, check network connectivity. Go to the AP console and verify if the AP has come up with the IP from the provisioning subnet. After the entry shows up on the page, configure the location, Host IP/Name, Master IP address. If AP is going to be assigned a static IP, click Use the following IP Address and enter the IP address, Netmask, Gateway IP. If the AP is going to obtain an IP address using DHCP, click Use IP Address Using DHCP. After configuring the required parameters, select the entry from the list (AP to which the configuration has to be applied) and click Apply. The State field changes from U (Unprovisioned) to In Progress. After a few seconds, click the Refresh link again and the State will have changed to P (Provisioned). Note Check that the configured parameters are reflected in the AP list entry. Note Ortronics recommends that you provision each AP for a unique location as suggested by site-survey planning. Label each AP with this location information and place the AP in its proper location. Failure to place APs in the location for which they were provisioned will reduce the effectiveness of such RF features as triangulation. 10 Click Back to go into the previous page We can see that the Subnet is still configured and Port/s are selected. 11 When finished provisioning APs, click Disable to disable AP Provisioning. 10 Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO Installation Guide Part OR-71601435 Rev 02 Draft 2006 Note Disable AP Provisioning after all the required APs are provisioned. Ports that are enabled for provisioning do not handle traffic. Therefore plugging an already provisioned AP into a port still set to provisioning mode will prevent that AP from functioning. Now the AP is configured with the Parameters given 12 Reboot the AP so the AP will come up with the new configured parameters. Use the Reprovisioning tab for APs which are already deployed but need to be reconfigured. See the Ortronics Wireless Software User’s Guide for information on reprovisioning. Provisioning Access Points Chapter 2 11 Manual Provisioning Connecting the Console Terminal Manual provisioning requires this procedure. You must use the serial console breakout adapter cable to be able to access the serial console interface to the Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO while allowing the device to be powered by the AC adapter or PoE (from an Ortronics Wireless Controller). FIGURE 2-3 Wi-Jack AP DUO 12 Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO Installation Guide Part OR-71601435 Rev 02 Draft 2006 CHAPTER 3 AP Deployment This chapter covers installation of the Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO Access Point. Mounting the Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO When provisioning is complete, mount the Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO at its intended service location. The Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO with internal antennas is intended only for installation in Environment A as defined in IEEE 802.3.af. All interconnected equipment must be contained within the same building, including the interconnected equipment’s associated LAN connections. Select a location as close as possible to the center of the intended coverage area. If necessary, use the Ortronics RF Plan site survey tool to determine the optimum locations for your access points and air monitors. The service location should be free from obstructions or obvious sources of interference. Normally, the higher you place an access point or air monitor, the better its performance. The Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO is not suitable for outside use. Connecting Required Cables The Ortronics Wi-Jack DUO with internal antennas are intended only for installation in Environment A as defined in IEEE 802.3.af. All interconnected equipment must be contained within the same building, including the interconnected equipment's associated LAN connections. Selecting Horizontal Cable The 10/100 Mbps Ethernet (FE) port is used to connect the AP to a 10Base-T/100Base-TX (twisted-pair) Ethernet LAN segment. The appropriate FE jumper cable is supplied. Horizontal cable most be 8-conductor, Category 5e minimum, UTP, straight-through FE cable. The maximum horizontal run length for FE cable is 100 meters (325 feet). AP Deployment Chapter 3 13 Install cables in accordance with all applicable local regulations and practices.

When connecting indirectly, use a straight-through FE coupler to attach the “To AP” connector to the FE cable leading directly to the AP’s User port with no intervening hubs, routers, or other network equipment. The cable must be 8-conductor, Category 5e or 6, straight-through FE cable with a maximum length of 100 meters (325 feet). Install cables in accordance with all applicable local regulations and practices. “To Network” Specifications The RJ-45 connector labeled “To Network” attaches to an FE LAN segment. This connection is optional unless IEEE 802.11af Power over Ethernet (PoE) is used to power the AP during manual provisioning. A straight-through FE coupler may be used to attach the “To Network” connector to a LAN FE cable. The appropriate cable depends on the level of connectivity required of the User port: z If the connecting device supports IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE), use an 8-conductor, Category 5e or 6, straight-through FE cable with male RJ45 connectors. The Ortronics WCU-5, WCU-16 and WCU-48 support SPOE. z Otherwise, use an 8-conductor, Category 5e or 6, FE cable with male RJ45 connectors. The port detects MDI/MDX and automatically adjusts for straight-through or crossover cables. Note Only IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet is supported for manual provisioning. “Inline” or “midspan” PoE devices will not work with the Ortronics serial breakout adapter. The maximum horizontal cable run length for FE cables is 100 meters (325 feet). Install cables in accordance with all applicable local regulations and practices.
