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:
l RingMaster tool suite—A full-featured graphical user interface (GUI) client
application for planning, configuring, and deploying a WLAN and its users;
and a centralized service application for WLAN and user monitoring,
reporting, and diagnostics
l 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
l 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
l 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

Cable Ports
All MP access point models except the MP-52/WSR-8001 have two RJ-45 ports.
(See MP .) Each port provides a 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet connection to an MX
switch. The connection can be direct to an MX-switch or indirect through an
intermediate Layer 2 or Layer 3 network.
MP model MP-52/WSR-8001 has one RJ-45 port for direct or indirect connection
to an MX switch. (See MP .)
Note. The DC input and serial console port on the MP-52/WSR-8001 are not
used.
The MPs receive power and data through the RJ-45 ports. Use a Category 5 (Cat 5)
cable with straight-through signaling and standard RJ-45 connectors to connect an
MP to an MX switch or other device in the network.
The two RJ-45 ports support dual-homed configurations for redundancy. An MP
uses only one link for booting, configuration, and data transfer. If the link becomes
unavailable, the MP can reboot using the other link. The ports are identical except
for logical numbering (1 or 2). You can use either port to connect an MP access
point to an MX switch. However, an MP always attempts to boot on MP port 1 first.
Only if the boot attempt on port 1 fails does the MP attempt to boot on port 2. If
both ports are directly connected to MX switch ports supplying Power over
Ethernet (PoE), the ports load-share. If one port becomes unavailable, the other
port can provide full power to the MP.
Note. MP access points do not support daisy-chain configurations. Do not
connect the MP access point to another MP access point.

Connection Options
You can connect an MP access port directly to an MX switch port or indirectly to
MX switches through an intermediate Layer 2 or Layer 3 network. In either case,
use Category 5 (CAT 5) cable with straight-through signaling for each MP
connection.
For MP models with two Ethernet ports, you can provide data link redundancy by
connecting both of its ports directly to MX switch ports or indirectly to MX
switches through the network.
For all MP models, you can provide MX management redundancy even on a single
MP Ethernet port by connecting the MP indirectly to multiple MX switches
through an intermediate Layer 2 or Layer 3 network.
Note. Install the Cat 5 cables for the MP access point at the installation site
before installing the access point itself. During installation, you will insert the
Cat 5 cable(s) into the MP port(s) before attaching the access point to the
bracket.

Installation Requirements and
Recommendations
For best results, follow these requirements and recommendations before installing
an MP 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:
l Number of MP access points required for adequate WLAN capacity in each
coverage area
l Detailed installation location for each MP access point
l 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 User’s Guide
and Trapeze RingMaster Reference Manual.)
MX Switch Recommendation
Trapeze Networks recommends that you install and configure the MX switch
before installing an MP access point. If the switch is already installed and
configured for the MP access point(s), you can immediately verify the cable
connection(s) when you plug the cable(s) into the MP access point.
Chapter 3
Installing and Connecting an MP
7
Caution! MP models MP-341, MP-352 and MP-52/WSR-8001 are designed to
receive power only from an 802.11af-compliant source, a Trapeze Networks
Mobility Exchange (MX) switch, or a Trapeze-approved power injector.
Connecting an MP access point to a Power over Ethernet (PoE) device that is not
approved by Trapeze Networks can damage the equipment. Other MP models
do not support 802.11af.
(For information about connecting an MP access point to an MX switch port, see
Connecting an MP
.)
Wall Installation Recommendations
If you plan to install MP model MP-341 or MP-352 on a partial wall or other
vertical surface, orient the top of the access point (the side with the LEDs) toward
the intended coverage area. The radio antennas transmit through the top of the
access point but not through the bottom (where the bracket is).
This recommendation does not apply if you plan to use only the 802.11b/g radio,
with an external antenna. You can orient the antenna independently of the MP
itself. Orient an external antenna to face the intended coverage area.
MP Radio Safety Advisories
When you enable the MP radio(s) as part of MX switch configuration, the radios
are able to receive and transmit radio frequency energy as soon as you connect the
MP access point(s) to the MX switch, either directly or through the network.
Chapter 3
Trapeze Mobility Point Installation Guide
Version 3.0
8
Radio Frequency Exposure
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Docket 96-8 for Spread Spectrum
Transmitters specifies a safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC-certified equipment. When used with the
proper antennas (shipped in the product), Trapeze Networks MP access point
products meet the uncontrolled environmental limits found in OET-65 and
ANSI C95.11991. Proper installation of the MP access point according to the
instructions in this manual will result in user exposure that is below the FCC
recommended limits.
Additional Radio Safety Advisories
(For translations of these warnings, see “Radio Safety Warnings” on page 78.)
Warning! In the U.S., locate the MP access point a minimum of 20 cm
(7.9 inches) away from people. This safety warning conforms with FCC radio
frequency exposure limits for dipole antennas such as those used in the MP
access point.
Warning! Do not operate the MP access point near unshielded blasting caps o
r
in an otherwise explosive environment unless the device has been modified for
such use by qualified personnel.
Warning! Do not touch or move the MP access point when the antennas are
transmitting or receiving.
Chapter 3
Installing and Connecting an MP

1 Insert a Cat 5 cable with a standard RJ-45 connector as shown in 10/100 Cat 5
Cable Installation. For connection to an MP access point, use a
straight-through cable.
2 When the link is activated, observe the MP LED for the port on the MX
switch:

Solid green For an MP access point’s active link, all the
following are true:
• MP access point has booted.
• MP access point has received a valid
configuration from the MX switch.
• Management link with an MP access point is
operational.
• At least one radio is enabled or is in sentry
mode.
For an MP access point’s secondary link, the
link is present.
Alternating green and
amber MP access point is booting with an image
received from the MX switch. After the access
point boots and receives its configuration, this
LED appearance persists until a radio is enabled
or is placed in sentry mode.
Solid amber PoE is on.
Blinking amber MP is unresponsive or there is a PoE problem.
Unlit PoE is off.

Note. An MX switch’s 10/100 Ethernet ports are configured as wired network
ports by default. You or the system administrator must change the port type for
an MX port directly connected to an MP to activate the link. (See the Trapeze
Mobility Exchange Installation and Basic Configuration Guide.)
Verifying MP Health
After you install the MP access point and enable PoE on the Ethernet cable
connected to the MP, you can easily verify the MP’s status by observing the LEDs,
particularly the health LED (MP-341 or MP-352) or the LINK LED
(MP-52/WSR-8001). (See Figure 6 on page 14 or Figure 3 on page 10.)
The health or LINK LED indicates whether the MP access point is ready for
operation.
l If the LED is green and glowing steadily, the MP has been booted
successfully by the MX switch and is ready for operation.
l If the LED is not steadily glowing green, contact the system administrator for
the MX switch or, if you are the system administrator, see Appendix A, “MP
Troubleshooting,” on page 63.

MAC Addresses
All MP access point models except MP-101 and MP-122 are assigned blocks of 64
MAC addresses each. Each radio has 32 MAC addresses and can therefore support
up to 32 SSIDs, with one MAC address assigned to each SSID as its BSSID.
Models MP-101 and MP-122 are assigned blocks of four MAC addresses each.
Each radio on models MP-101 and MP-122 is assigned one MAC address, which
is shared by both the clear SSID and the encrypted SSID.
An MP access point's MAC address block is listed on a label on the back of the
access point. If the MP is already deployed and running on the network, you can
display the MAC address assignments by using the show {ap | dap} status
command.
All MAC addresses on an MP are assigned based on the MP’s base MAC address,
as described in MAC Address Allocations on MP .

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.
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.
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.
For operation within 5.15 ~ 5.25GHz frequency range, it is restricted to indoor
environment, and the antenna of this device must be integral.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with
minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other

Senao declared that WSR-8001 is limited in CH1~11 from 2400 to 2483.5 MHz by
specified firmware controlled in USA.
Industry Canada Statement
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1) this device may not cause interference and
2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device
To prevent radio interference to the licensed service (i.e. co-channel Mobile
Satellite systems) this device is intended to be operated indoors and away
from windows to provide maximum shielding. Equipment (or its transmit
antenna) that is installed outdoors is subject to licensing.
Because high power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they
have priority) in 5250-5350 MHz, these radars could cause interference
and/or damage to license exempt LAN devices.
