Software User Manual 12/10/09 D-Link Unified Access System Selected Profile to Apply Figure 360: Applying the AP Profile When you apply new AP Profile settings to an AP, the access point stops and restarts system processes. If this happens, wireless clients will temporarily lose connectivity. D-Link recommends that you change access point settings when WLAN traffic is low. The Profile Status field can have one of the following values: • Associated: The profile is configured, and one or more APs managed by the switch are associated with this profile. • Associated-Modified: The profile has been modified since it was applied to one or more associated APs; the profile must be re-applied for the changes to take effect. • Apply Requested: After you select a profile and click Apply, the screen refreshes and shows that an apply has been requested. • Apply In Progress: The profile is being applied to all APs that use this profile. During this process the APs reset, and all wireless clients are disassociated from the AP. • Configured: The profile is configured, but no APs managed by the switch currently use this profile. You associate a profile with an AP in the Valid AP database. From the WLAN > Administration > Advanced Configuration > AP Profile > Access Point Profile Summary page, you can create, copy, or delete AP profiles. You can create up to 16 AP profiles on the Unified Switch. To create a new profile, enter the name of the profile in the Profile Name field, and then click Add.
