Band Steering – This is an optional setting and is only available on dual band
(2.4G & 5G) APs. This setting can assist with AP utilization and efficiency by
automatically identifying which client devices are capable of 802.11ac link rates
and automatically push those clients over from the 2.4G band to the 5G band
for 802.11ac connectivity. This feature requires both 2.4G and 5G bands to use
the same SSID and security settings on the same AP.
Device IP Settings – Allows to set the AP individual IP address settings. You can
statically/manually (Manual) assign the AP IP address settings or set the AP to
automatically obtain IP address settings from an existing DHCP server on your
network. The default setting is to Keep AP’s Setting which leaves the AP’s
current IP address settings untouched by the controller. It is recommended to
use the default setting.
Note: By default, TRENDnet indoor AP models TEW-755AP/821DAP/825DAP are
set to automatically obtain IP address settings using an existing DHCP server. If
the AP cannot obtain IP address settings from a DHCP server, the AP will default
back to 192.168.10.100 / 255.255.255.0.
Note: The controller can only discover access points located within the same IP
subnet.
