f. If using a static or DHCP Server, enter the Primary DNS Server numerical IP

address.

g. If using DHCP Server, use the Address Assignment Range parameter to

specify a range of IP address reserved for mapping clients to IP addresses.

If a manually (static) mapped IP address is within the IP address range

specified, that IP address could still be assigned to another client. To avoid

this, ensure all statically mapped IP addresses are outside of the IP

address range assigned to the DHCP server.

NOTE

For additional access point port configuration options, as well as radio, WLAN

and Quality of Service (QoS) options, refer to the Brocade Mobility 7131 Series

Access Point Product Reference Guide available at the Brocade Web site.

7. Se l ec t t h e WLAN #1 tab (WLANs 1 - 4 are available within the Quick Setup

screen) to define its ESSID security scheme for basic operation.

NOTE

A maximum of 16 WLANs are configurable within the access point Wireless

Configuration screen. The limitation of 16 WLANs exists regardless of the

number of radios supported.

a. Enter the Extended Services Set Identification (ESSID) and name

associated with the WLAN.

b. Use the Available On checkboxes to define whether the target WLAN is

operating over the 802.11a/n or 802.11b/g/n radio. Ensure the radio

selected has been enabled

(see step 8).

8. Once the WLAN’s radio designations have been made, the radio must be

configured in respect to intended 2.4 or 5 GHz radio traffic and the antennas

used. Refer to Network Configuration -> Wireless -> Radio Configuration ->

Radio1 (or Radio2), and configure the Radio Settings field (at a minimum). If

you know the radio’s Properties, Performance and Beacon Settings, those

fields can also be defined at this time.

Define the Channel Settings, Power Level and 802.11 mode in respect to the

2.4 or 5 GHz 802.11b/g/n or 802.11a/n radio traffic and anticipated gain of

the antennas.
