THE SPECIFICATIONS AND INFORMATION REGARDING THE PRODUCTS IN THIS MANUAL ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. ALL STATEMENTS, INFORMATION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS IN THIS MANUAL ARE BELIEVED TO BE ACCURATE BUT ARE PRESENTED WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. USERS MUST TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR APPLICATION OF ANY PRODUCTS.

THE SOFTWARE LICENSE AND LIMITED WARRANTY FOR THE ACCOMPANYING PRODUCT ARE SET FORTH IN THE INFORMATION PACKET THAT SHIPPED WITH THE PRODUCT AND ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE SOFTWARE LICENSE OR LIMITED WARRANTY, CONTACT YOUR CISCO REPRESENTATIVE FOR A COPY.

The following information is for FCC compliance of Class A devices: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required to correct the interference at their own expense.

The following information is for FCC compliance of Class B devices: The equipment described in this manual generates and may radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may cause interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in part 15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s written authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class A or Class B digital devices. In that event, your right to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any interference to radio or television communications at your own expense.

You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:

• Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.

• Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.

• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.

• Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)

Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

product installation, or basic product configuration. There is little or no impact to your business operations.

• Priority level 3 (P3)—Operational performance of the network is impaired, but most business

operations remain functional. You and Cisco are willing to commit resources during normal business hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.

• Priority level 2 (P2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects

of your business operations are negatively impacted by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.

• Priority level 1 (P1)—An existing network is “down,” or there is a critical impact to your business

operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.

Overview

Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series Access Points provide a secure, affordable, and easy-to-use wireless LAN solution that combines mobility and flexibility with the enterprise-class features required by networking professionals. With a management system based on Cisco IOS software, the 1130 series access point is a Wi-Fi certified, wireless LAN transceiver.

The access point contains two integrated radios: a 2.4-GHz radio (IEEE 802.11g) and a 5-GHz radio (IEEE 802.11a). You can configure the radios separately, using different settings on each radio.

The access point serves as the connection point between wireless and wired networks or as the center point of a stand-alone wireless network. In large installations, wireless users within radio range of an access point can roam throughout a facility while maintaining seamless, uninterrupted access to the network.

You can configure and monitor the access point using the command-line interface (CLI), the browser-based management system, or Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

Hardware Features

CISCO CONFIDENTIAL - Draft 2

The auto-sensing Ethernet port accepts an RJ-45 connector, linking the access point to your 10BASE-T or 100BASE-T Ethernet LAN. The access point can receive power through the Ethernet cable from a power injector, switch, or power patch panel. The Ethernet MAC address is printed on the label on the back of the access point. The port is located in a cable bay area that is hidden by the top cover (see

Figure 1-1).

The serial console port provides access to the access point’s command-line interface (CLI) using a terminal emulator program. The port is located in a cable bay area that is hidden by the top cover (see

Figure 1-1). Use an RJ-45 to DB-9 serial cable to connect your computer’s COM port to the access

point’s serial console port. (Refer to Appendix E, “Console Cable Pinouts,” for a description of the console port pinouts.) Assign the following port settings to a terminal emulator to open the management system pages: 9600 baud, 8 data bits, No parity, 1 stop bit and no flow control.

within the cable bay area of the access point.

LEDs

The report Ethernet has three LEDs to indicate Ethernet activity, association status, radio activity, and other status indications (refer to the “Checking the Access Point LEDs” section on page 6-2 for additional information).

• The Status LED provides general operating status and error indications.

• The Ethernet LED is located in the cable bay area under the access point top cover. This LED signals

Ethernet traffic on the wired Ethernet LAN and provides Ethernet error indications.

• The Radio LED signals that wireless packets are being transmitted or received over the radio

interface and provides radio error indications.

Hardware Features

Power Sources

Chapter 1 Overview

CISCO CONFIDENTIAL - Draft 2

The access point can receive power from an external power module (supplied)or from inline power using the Ethernet cable. The access point supports the IEEE 802.3af inline power standard and the Cisco CDP Power Negotiation protocol. Using inline power, you do not need to run a power cord to the access point because power is supplied over the Ethernet cable.

Warning

This product must be connected to a power-over-ethernet (PoE) IEEE 802.3af compliant power source or an IEC60950 compliant limited power source.

The access point supports the following power sources:

Note Some switches and patch panels might not provide enough power to operate the access point when

configured with both 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz radios. On power-up if the access point is unable to determine that the power source can supply sufficient power, the access point automatically deactivates both radios to prevent an over-current condition. The access point also activates a Status LED low power error indication and creates an error log entry (refer to the “Checking the Access Point LEDs” section on

page 6-2 and the “Low Power Condition” section on page 6-5).

Anti-Theft Features

There are three methods of securing the access point to help prevent theft:

• Power module (supplied)

• Inline power:

–

Cisco Aironet Power Injector (AIR-PWRINJ3 or AIR-PWRINJ-FIB)

–

An inline power capable switch, such as the Cisco Catalyst 3524 PWR XL, 3560-48PS, 3570-48PS, 4500 with 802.3AF PoE module, or the 6500 with 802.3AF PoE module

–

Other inline power switches supporting the IEEE 802.3af inline power standard

• Security cable keyhole—You can use the security cable slot to secure the access point using a

standard security cable, such as those used on laptop computers.

• Security hasp adapter—When you mount the access point on a wall or ceiling using the mounting

plate and the security hasp, you can lock the access point to the plate with a padlock (see Figure 1-2). Compatible padlocks are Master Lock models 120T and 121T or equivalent.

UL 2043 Certification

The access point has adequate fire resistance and low smoke-producing characteristics suitable for operation in a building's environmental air space, such as above suspended ceilings, in accordance with Section 300-22(c) of the NEC, and with Sections 2-128, 12-010(3) and 12-100 of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, C22.1.

Caution Only the fiber-optic power injector (AIR-PWRINJ-FIB) has been tested to UL 2043 for operation in a

building’s environmental air space, the AIR-PWRINJ3 power injector and the power module are not tested to UL 2043 and should not be placed in a building’s environmental air space, such as above suspended ceilings.

Network Configuration Examples

This section describes the access point’s role in three common wireless network configurations. The access point’s default configuration is as a root unit connected to a wired LAN or as the central unit in an all-wireless network. The repeater role requires a specific configuration.

Chapter 1 Overview

Root Unit on a Wired LAN

An access point connected directly to a wired LAN provides a connection point for wireless users. If more than one access point is connected to the LAN, users can roam from one area of a facility to another without losing their connection to the network. As users move out of range of one access point, they automatically connect to the network (associate) through another access point. The roaming process is seamless and transparent to the user. Figure 1-4 shows access points acting as root units on a wired LAN.

Repeater Unit that Extends Wireless Range

An access point can be configured as a stand-alone repeater to extend the range of your infrastructure or to overcome an obstacle that blocks radio communication. The repeater forwards traffic between wireless users and the wired LAN by sending packets to either another repeater or to an access point connected to the wired LAN. The data is sent through the route that provides the best performance for the client. Figure 1-5 shows an access point acting as a repeater. Consult the Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide for Cisco Aironet Access Points for instructions on setting up an access point as a repeater.

Protecting Your Wireless LAN

After you assign basic settings to your access point, you must configure security settings to prevent unauthorized access to your network. Because it is a radio device, the access point can communicate beyond the physical boundaries of your building. Configure some combination of these security features to protect your network from intruders:

• Unique SSIDs that are not broadcast in the access point beacon (see Cisco IOS Software

Configuration Guide for Cisco Aironet Access Points)

• WEP and additional WEP features, such as TKIP and broadcast key rotation (see Cisco IOS Software

Configuration Guide for Cisco Aironet Access Points)

• Dynamic WEP and client authentication (see Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide for Cisco

Aironet Access Points)

Using the IP Setup Utility

IPSU enables you to find the access point’s IP address when it has been assigned by a DHCP server. The access point must have an IP address before IPSU can be used. This section explains how to install the utility and how to use it to find the access point’s IP address.

Protecting Your Wireless LAN

Note IPSU can be used only on the following operating systems: Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, ME, or XP.

Note IPSU can not be used to set the access point IP address or SSID.

Tip Another simple way to find the access point’s IP address is to look on the Status screen in the Aironet

Client Utility on a client device associated to the access point.

Obtaining and Installing IPSU

IPSU is available on the Cisco web site. Follow these steps to obtain and install IPSU:

Step 1 Use your Internet browser to access the Cisco Software Center at the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/public/sw-center/sw-wireless.shtml

Step 2 Click Option 2: Aironet Wireless Software Display Tables.

Step 3 Locate the access point firmware and utilities section and click Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series (Cisco

IOS Software).

The IPSU icon appears on your computer desktop.

Using IPSU to Find the Access Point’s IP Address

If your access point receives an IP address from a DHCP server, you can use IPSU to find its IP address. Because IPSU sends a reverse-ARP request based on the access point MAC address, you must run IPSU from a computer on the same subnet as the access point and the access point must have an IP address. Follow these steps to find the access point’s IP address:

Step 1 Double-click the IPSU icon on your computer desktop to start the utility. The IPSU screen appears (see

Figure 3-4).

Cisco IOS Command Modes

CISCO CONFIDENTIAL - Draft 2

Cisco IOS Command Modes

The Cisco IOS user interface is divided into many different modes. The commands available to you depend on which mode you are currently in. Enter a question mark (?) at the system prompt to obtain a list of commands available for each command mode. Refer to the Cisco IOS Command Reference for Cisco Aironet Access Points and Bridges for a list of the supported Cisco IOS commands.

When you start a session on the access point, you begin in user mode, often called user EXEC mode. Only a limited subset of the commands are available in user EXEC mode. For example, most of the user EXEC commands are one-time commands, such as show commands, which show the current configuration status, and clear commands, which clear counters or interfaces. The user EXEC commands are not saved when the access point reboots.

To have access to all commands, you must enter privileged EXEC mode. Normally, you must enter a password to enter privileged EXEC mode. From this mode, you must enter privileged EXEC mode before you can enter the global configuration mode.

Using the configuration modes (global, interface, and line), you can make changes to the running configuration. If you save the configuration, these commands are stored and used when the access point reboots. To access the various configuration modes, you must start at global configuration mode. From global configuration mode, you can enter interface configuration mode and line configuration mode.

Tabl e 5 -1 describes the main command modes, how to access each one, the prompt you see in that mode, and

how to exit the mode. The examples in the table use the host name ap.

Abbreviating Commands

You have to enter only enough characters for the access point to recognize the command as unique. This example shows how to enter the show configuration privileged EXEC command:

ap# show conf

Using no and default Forms of Commands

Most configuration commands also have a no form. In general, use the no form to disable a feature or function or reverse the action of a command. For example, the no shutdown interface configuration command reverses the shutdown of an interface. Use the command without the keyword no to re-enable a disabled feature or to enable a feature that is disabled by default.

OL-6226-01

Understanding CLI Messages

CISCO CONFIDENTIAL - Draft 2

Configuration commands can also have a default form. The default form of a command returns the command setting to its default. Most commands are disabled by default, so the default form is the same as the no form. However, some commands are enabled by default and have variables set to certain default values. In these cases, the default command enables the command and sets variables to their default values.

Understanding CLI Messages

Table 5-3 lists some error messages that you might encounter while using the CLI to configure your

access point.

1. The arrow keys function only on ANSI-compatible terminals such as VT100s.

Purpose

Editing Command Lines that Wrap

You can use a wraparound feature for commands that extend beyond a single line on the screen. When the cursor reaches the right margin, the command line shifts ten spaces to the left. You cannot see the first ten characters of the line, but you can scroll back and check the syntax at the beginning of the command.

To scroll back to the beginning of the command entry, press Ctrl-B or the left arrow key repeatedly. You can also press Ctrl-A to immediately move to the beginning of the line.

Note The arrow keys function only on ANSI-compatible terminals such as VT100s.

In this example, the access-list global configuration command entry extends beyond one line. When the cursor first reaches the end of the line, the line is shifted ten spaces to the left and redisplayed. The dollar sign ($) shows that the line has been scrolled to the left. Each time the cursor reaches the end of the line, the line is again shifted ten spaces to the left.

Searching and Filtering Output of show and more Commands

CISCO CONFIDENTIAL - Draft 2

After you complete the entry, press Ctrl-A to check the complete syntax before pressing the Return key to execute the command. The dollar sign ($) appears at the end of the line to show that the line has been scrolled to the right:

ap(config)# access-list 101 permit tcp 131.108.2.5 255.255.255.0 131.108.1$

The software assumes you have a terminal screen that is 80 columns wide. If you have a width other than that, use the terminal width privileged EXEC command to set the width of your terminal.

Use line wrapping with the command history feature to recall and modify previous complex command entries. For information about recalling previous command entries, see the “Editing Commands Through

Keystrokes” section on page 5-6.

Searching and Filtering Output of show and more Commands

You can search and filter the output for show and more commands. This is useful when you need to sort through large amounts of output or if you want to exclude output that you do not need to see.

To use this functionality, enter a show or more command followed by the pipe character (|), one of the keywords begin, include, or exclude, and an expression that you want to search for or filter out:

command | {begin | include | exclude} regular-expression

Expressions are case sensitive. For example, if you enter | exclude output, the lines that contain output are not displayed, but the lines that contain Output are displayed.

This example shows how to include in the output display only lines where the expression protocol appears:

ap# show interfaces | include protocol Vlan1 is up, line protocol is up Vlan10 is up, line protocol is down GigabitEthernet0/1 is up, line protocol is down GigabitEthernet0/2 is up, line protocol is up

Accessing the CLI

You can open the access point’s CLI using Telnet or Secure Shell (SSH).

Opening the CLI with Telnet

Follow these steps to open the CLI with Telnet. These steps are for a PC running Microsoft Windows with a Telnet terminal application. Check your PC operating instructions for detailed instructions for your operating system.

Step 1 Select Start > Programs > Accessories > Telnet.

If Telnet is not listed in your Accessories menu, select Start > Run, type Tel ne t in the entry field, and press Enter.

Note In Windows 2000, the Telnet window does not contain drop-down menus. To start the Telnet

session in Windows 2000, type open followed by the access point’s IP address.

Step 3 In the Host Name field, type the access point’s IP address and click Connect.

Step 4 At the username and password prompts, enter your administrator username and password. The default

username is Cisco, and the default password is Cisco. The default enable password is also Cisco. Usernames and passwords are case-sensitive.

Opening the CLI with Secure Shell

Secure Shell Protocol is a protocol that provides a secure, remote connection to networking devices set up to use it. Secure Shell (SSH) is a software package that provides secure login sessions by encrypting the entire session. SSH features strong cryptographic authentication, strong encryption, and integrity protection. For detailed information on SSH, visit the homepage of SSH Communications Security, Ltd. at this URL: http://www.ssh.com/

SSH provides more security for remote connections than Telnet by providing strong encryption when a device is authenticated. See the Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide for Cisco Aironet Access Points for detailed instructions on setting up the access point for SSH access.

Chapter 6 Troubleshooting

Checking Basic Settings

Mismatched basic settings are the most common causes of lost connectivity with wireless clients. If the access point does not communicate with client devices, check the following areas.

SSID

Wireless clients attempting to associate with the access point must use the same SSID as the access point. If a client device’s SSID does not match the SSID of an access point in radio range, the client device will not associate. The access point default SSID is tsunami.

Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series Access Point Hardware Installation Guide

6-4

OL-6226-01

Chapter 6 Troubleshooting

WEP Keys

The WEP key you use to transmit data must be set up exactly the same on your access point and any wireless devices with which it associates. For example, if you set WEP Key 3 on your client adapter to 0987654321 and select it as the transmit key, you must also set WEP Key 3 on the access point to exactly the same value. The access point does not need to use Key 3 as its transmit key, however.

Refer to the Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide for Cisco Aironet Access Points for instructions on setting the access point’s WEP keys.

Security Settings

Wireless clients attempting to authenticate with your access point must support the same security options configured in the access point, such as EAP or LEAP, MAC address authentication, Message Integrity Check (MIC), WEP key hashing, and 802.1X protocol versions.

If a wireless client is unable to authenticate with your access point, contact the system administrator for proper security settings in the client adapter and for the client adapter driver and firmware versions that are compatible with the access point settings.

Low Power Condition

CISCO CONFIDENTIAL - Draft 2

Note The access point MAC address that appears on the Status page in the Aironet Client Utility (ACU) is the

MAC address for the access point radio. The MAC address for the access point Ethernet port is printed on the label on the back of the access point.

Low Power Condition

The access point can be powered from the 48 VDC power module or from an in-line power source. The access point supports the IEEE 802.3af power standard and the Cisco CDP Power Negotiation protocol for in-line power sources. The access point requires more power (13 watts) than some legacy in-line power sources can supply. On power-up if the access point is unable to determine that the power source can supply sufficient power , the access point automatically enters low power mode and deactivates both radios to prevent an over-current condition. The access point also activates a Status LED low power error indication and creates an error log entry (see the “Checking the Access Point LEDs” section on page 6-2 a nd “Inline Power Status Messages” section on page 6-6).

Warning

This product must be connected to an IEC60950 compliant limited power source or a power-over-ethernet (PoE) IEEE 802.3af compliant power source.

On power up, the access point boots up in low power mode, Cisco IOS software loads and runs, CDP power negotiation determines if sufficient power is available. If there is sufficient power then the radios are turned on, otherwise the radios remain disabled.

When the access point is in low power mode, the Cisco IOS show interfaces dot11radio 0 command produces the following results:

Dot11Radio0 is up, line protocol is down.

OL-6226-01

Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series Access Point Hardware Installation Guide

Low Power Condition

CISCO CONFIDENTIAL - Draft 2

CDP Inline Power Negotiation

The access point uses CDP (Cisco Discovery Protocol) to negotiate with the in-line power source for sufficient power. The results of these negotiations will either be a decision to enter full power mode or to remain in low power mode. Independent of the CDP negotiations, the access point hardware uses the

802.3af classification scheme to report maximum power is required by the access point.

Currently, Cisco switches (802.3af capable) do not support CDP in-line power negotiation. The access point automatically enters normal power mode if a Cisco Catalyst 3550, 3560, or 3570 switch is detected in the received CDP ID field.

When the access point determins that sufficient power is not available for normal power mode an error message is logged and the Status LED turns orange to indicate the low power mode ((see the “Checking

the Access Point LEDs” section on page 6-2 and the “Inline Power Status Messages” section on page 6-6) .

Inline Power Status Messages

These messages are logged by the access point to report the power condition:

• %CDP_PD-4-POWER_OK: Full power - AC_ADAPTOR inline power source—This message

indicates the access point is using the power module and can support full power.

• %CDP_PD-4-POWER_OK: Full power - NO_CDP_NON_CISCO inline power source—This

message indicates the access point is operating at full power but is connected to a non-Cisco in-line power source. To prevent possible over-current conditions, this must be an power source or an IEC60950 compliant limited power source.

• %CDP_PD-4-POWER_OK: Full power - HIGH_POWER_CLASSIC inline power source—This

message indicates the access point is operating at full power and has detected a Cisco switch capable of supplying sufficient power.

IEEE 802.3af compliant

• %CDP_PD-4-POWER_OK: Full power - MIDSPAN inline power source—This message indicates

the access point is operating at full power and the Cisco IOS power in-line negotiation command has been used to indicate a power injector is being used to supply power.

• %CDP_PD-4-POWER_OK: Full power - NEGOTIATED inline power source—This message

indicates the access point is operating at full power and power is being supplied by a Cisco switch capable of power negotiation.

• %CDP_PD-2-POWER_LOW: All radios disabled - LOW_POWER_CLASSIC inline power source

platform=AIR-AP1120B-A-K9 MAC address=xxxx.xxxx.xxxx—This message indicates the access point is in low power mode with all radios disabled and the power source is not capable of in-line power negotiations. The xxxx.xxxx.xxxx indicates the MAC address of the power source.

• %CDP_PD-2-POWER_LOW: All radios disabled - NEGOTIATED inline power source

Inline Power Exception

CDP in-line power negotiation is dependent on similar code being resident in the Cisco switch that is providing power. However, not every switch supports this CDP power negotiation code. As a work around for such pre-standard switches the following Cisco IOS CLI command is required:

(config)# [no] power inline negotiation {prestandard source | injector H.H.H}

You can use this Cisco IOS CLI command to inform the access point that the power source is an 802.3af compliant Cisco switch or that a power injector is being used to supply sufficient power. Refer to

Table 6-2 for information on when to use this special Cisco IOS command.

Caution If the access point receives power through Power-over-Ethernet (PoE), the output current of the power

sourcing equipment (PSE) cannot exceed 400 mA or 1500 V per port, whichever is smaller. The power source must comply with IEEE802.3af or IEC60950 for limited power sources.

Table 6-2 Special Cisco IOS Command

Power Source Cisco IOS Command

AC power module None required

Power injector

Cisco 802.3af compliant switch

1. Power injector must be AIR-PWRINJ3 or AIR-PWRINJ-FIB.

2. If command 2 is not issued when powered only by a Cisco non-802.3af compliant switch, the access point powers up with both radio interfaces

down.

Low Power Condition

For Cisco non-802.3af compliant switches and Cisco switches without inline power, use this Cisco IOS command:

power inline negotiation injector xxxx.xxxx.xxxx (where xxxx.xxxx.xxxx is the MAC address of the switch port to which the access point is connected.

Use this Cisco IOS command:

power inline negotiation prestandard source

Issuing the Cisco IOS Command

Follow these steps to issue the Cisco IOS command for your power scenario:

Step 1 Connect a PC to the access point console port and use a terminal emulator to establish a session with the

access point (refer to the “Connecting to the Access Point Locally” section on page 3-3).

Step 2 From the Privileged EXEC mode (refer to the “Cisco IOS Command Modes” section on page 5-2), enter

one of these commands that applies to your power configuration (see Tab l e 6-2):

• power inline negotiation injector xxxx.xxxx.xxxx

(where xxxx.xxxx.xxxx is the MAC address of the switch port to which the access point is connected.

• power inline negotiation prestandard source

Step 3 Enter the write memory command to save the setting to the access point memory.

Step 4 Enter the quit command to exit the terminal session.

Running the Carrier Busy Test

CISCO CONFIDENTIAL - Draft 2

Running the Carrier Busy Test

You can use the carrier busy test to determine the least conjested channel for a radio interface (802.11g or 802.11a). You should typically run the test several times over several days to obtain the best results and to avoid temporary activity spikes.

Note The carrier busy test is primarily used for single access points or bridge environments. For sites with

multiple access points, a site survey is typically performed to determine the best operation location and operating frequency for the access points.

Note All associated clients on the selected radio will be deassociated during the 6 to 8 seconds needed for the

carrier busy test.

Perform these steps to activate the carrier busy test:

Step 1 Use your web browser to access the access point browser interface.

Step 2 Click Network Interfaces and the Network Interface Summary screen appears.

Step 3 Choose the radio interface experiencing problems by clicking Radio0-802.11G or Radio1-802.11A.
