Software User Manual 12/10/09 D-Link Unified Access System Field Profile Table 266: Valid Access Point Summary Description This field displays the AP profile assigned to the AP. To assign a different profile to the AP, click the MAC address of the AP to go to the Valid Access Point Configuration page. Click the profile name to access the configuration pages for the profile. After you enter the MAC address and location of the AP to add to the list, click Add to add the AP to the database and to access the configuration page for the AP. For an AP that is already in the database, click the MAC address of the AP to access its configuration page. • The Delete button clears an entry from the current list. • The Delete All button clears all entries from the list. • The Refresh button refreshes the list of APs. • The Change Profile button changes the profile assigned to the selected AP or APs. Valid Access Point Configuration From the Valid AP Configuration page, you can manually set the channel and RF signal transmit power level for an individual AP. You can also configure the AP mode and local authentication password, and you can specify which profile the AP uses. If you use the local database for AP validation, the switch maintains the database of access points that you validate. When you add the MAC address of an AP to the database, you can specify whether the AP is a managed AP, standalone AP, or a rogue. If the AP is to be managed by the switch, you can assign an AP profile to the device. When the switch collects and reports information from the RF scan, it can assign the appropriate status to an AP if it is in the database. Any configuration changes for a managed AP will not be applied until the AP is reset and re-authenticated. If the AP is managed, a popup message asks if you would like to reset the AP. If you click OK, the AP is reset. Figure 301: Configuring a Valid AP Table 267 describes the fields available on the Valid Access Point Configuration page.
