COMMON DEFAULT SETTINGS AND COMMANDS
Many major components of HiveOS are automated and typically require no further configuration. For example, radio
power and frequency selection occurs automatically, as does route learning. Also, after defining a hive and a
password that hive members use to secure communications, all HiveAPs belonging to that hive automatically initiate
and maintain communications with each other.
Additionally, there are many default settings that simplify the setup of a HiveAP because these are the typical
settings for many of the most common deployments. The following are some important default settings and the
commands necessary to change them if you need to do so. For a complete list of CLI commands, see one of the
platform-dependent Aerohive CLI reference guides available online at www.aerohive.com/techdocs
.
Default Settings Commands
mgt0 interface DHCP client = enabled To disable the DHCP client:
no interface mgt0 dhcp client
To set an IP address:
interface mgt0 ip ip_addr netmask
VLAN ID = 1 To set the native (untagged) VLAN that the switch
infrastructure in the surrounding wired and wireless
backhaul network uses:
interface mgt0 native-vlan number
VLAN ID = 1 To set the VLAN for administrative access to the
HiveAP, management traffic between HiveAPs and
HiveManager, and control traffic among hive
members:
interface mgt0 vlan number
wifi0 and wifi1
interfaces
wifi0 mode = access
wifi1 mode = backhaul
To change the mode of the wifi0 or wifi1 interface:
interface { wifi0 | wifi1 } mode { access
| backhaul }
wifi0 radio profile = radio_g0
wifi1 radio profile = radio_a0
To change the radio profile of the wifi0 or wifi1
interface to a different, previously defined profile:
interface { wifi0 | wifi1 } radio profile
string
antenna = internal To have the wifi0 interface use an external antenna:
interface { wifi0 | wifi1 } radio antenna
external
channel = automatic selection To set a specific radio channel:
interface { wifi0 | wifi1 } radio channel
number
power = automatic selection To set a specific transmission power level (in dBms):
interface { wifi0 | wifi1 } radio power
number
User profile default-profile:
group ID = 0
policy name = def-user-qos
VLAN ID = 1
You cannot change the group ID or QoS policy name
for the default user profile. To change its VLAN ID:
user-profile default-profile vlan-id
