3Com 3CRWX120695A - Set {Ap | Dap} Bias

set {ap | dap} bias 261
History — Introduced in MSS Version 3.0.
Usage — When you enter this command, the MAP access point drops all
sessions and reboots.
CAUTION: Restarting an MAP access point can cause data loss for users
who are currently associated with the MAP.
Examples — The following command resets the MAP access point on
port 6:
WX1200# reset ap 6
This will reset specified AP devices.
Would you like to continue? (y/n)y
success: rebooting ap attached to port 6
set {ap | dap} bias Changes the bias for a MAP. Bias is the priority of one WX switch over
other WX switches for booting and configuring the MAP.
Syntax —
set {ap port-list | dap dap-num} bias {high | low}
■ ap port-list — List of ports on which to change the bias for directly
connected MAPs.
■ dap dap-num — Number of a Distributed MAP for which to change
the bias.
■ high — High bias.
■ low — Low bias.
Defaults — The default bias is high.
Access — Enabled.
History — Introduced in MSS Version 3.0.
Usage — High bias is preferred over low bias. Bias applies only to WX
switches that are indirectly attached to the MAP through an intermediate
Layer 2 or Layer 3 network. A MAP always attempts to boot on MAP
port 1 first, and if an WX switch is directly attached on MAP port 1, the
MAP always boots from it.
If MAP port 1 is indirectly connected to WX switches through the
network, the MAP boots from the switch with the high bias for the MAP.
