Table 334: Valid AP Configuration
Field Description
MAC Address This field shows the MAC address of the AP. To change this field, you must delete the
entire Valid AP configuration and then enter the correct MAC address from the page
that lists all Valid APs.
AP Mode You can configure the AP to be in one of three modes:
• Standalone: The AP acts as an individual access point in the network. You do not
manage the AP by using the switch. Instead, you log on to the AP itself and
manage it by using the Administrator Web User Interface (UI), CLI, or SNMP. If
you select the Standalone mode, the screen refreshes and different fields appear.
See the following table for the Standalone mode field descriptions.
• Managed: The AP is part of the D-Link Unified Switch, and you manage it by using
the DWS-4000 Series switch. If an AP is in Managed Mode, the Administrator
Web UI and SNMP services on the AP are disabled.
• Rogue: Select Rogue as the AP mode if you wish to be notified (through an SNMP
trap, if enabled) when this AP is detected in the network. Additionally, the when
this AP is detected through an RF scan, the status is listed as Rogue. If you select
the Rogue mode, the screen refreshes, and fields that do not apply to this mode
are hidden.
Location To help you identify the AP, you can enter a location. This field accepts up to 32
alphanumeric characters.
Authentication
Password
You can require that the AP authenticate itself with the switch upon discovery. If you
require authentication, which is a setting on the Basic Setup > Global tab, select the
Edit option and enter the password in this field.
The valid password range is between 8 and 63 alphanumeric characters. The
password in this field must match the password configured on the AP.
Profile If you configure multiple AP Profiles, you can select the profile to assign to this AP.
For more information about configuring AP Profiles, see “Advanced Global Settings”
on page 594.
