Disabling Access to the AP Console
Another way to protect your AP system is to completely disable access to the AP console under enabled mode.
In the WebUI
To disable access to the console in the WebUI:
1. Navigate to Configuration > Advanced Services > All Profiles.
2. Expand the AP tab, then click on AP System.
3. Under the AP System list, select the AP system you want to modify.
4. Click on the Advanced tab, then scroll down to Console Enable.
5. Clear the Console Enable checkbox.
6. Click Apply, then Save Configuration to save your changes.
In the CLI
To disable access to the console in the CLI:
(host) (config) #ap system profile default
(host) (AP system profile “default”) #no console-enable
Link Aggregation Support on OAW-AP220 Series, OAW-AP270
Series, and OAW-AP320 Series
OAW-AP220 Series , OAW-AP270 Series, and OAW-AP320 Series access points support link aggregation using
either static port channel (configuration based) or Link Aggregation Control Protocol (protocol signaling based).
These access points can optionally be deployed with LACP configuration to benefit from higher (greater than 1
Gbps) aggregate throughput capabilities.
The switch uses two different IP addresses for forwarding traffic to wireless clients associated to tunnel mode
or decrypt-tunnel mode VAPs. One IP address is switch's IP address and the other is an unassigned IP address
called GRE striping IP. Select the GRE striping IP address to ensure that a different physical interface is used by
the load-balancing algorithm on the Ethernet switch. This enables the OAW-AP220 Series , OAW-AP270 Series,
and OAW-AP320 Series access points achieve greater than 1 Gbps throughput in both upstream and
downstream directions.
On OAW-AP200 Series and OAW-AP270 Series access points, different IP addresses are used for different GRE
tunnels between the AP and the switch. One switch IP address is used for tunnels corresponding to virtual APs
using a 5G radio and the other switch IP address is used for tunnels corresponding to virtual APs using a 2.4G
radio. By associating clients on both bands you can achieve more than 1 Gbps throughput.
On OAW-AP320 Series access points, both IP addresses are used for GRE tunnels of virtual APs on 5G radio. By
associating one 4x4 802.11ac client or multiple clients on you can achieve more than 1 Gbps throughput.
AOS-W 6.4.2.0 introduces a local AP LACP LMSmap information profile that maps a LMS IPaddress to a GRE
striping IP address. If the AP fails over to a standby or backup switch, the AP LACP LMSmap information profile
on the new switch defines the striping IP address that the AP uses for link aggregation. This feature allows
OAW-AP220 Series , OAW-AP270 Series, and OAW-AP320 Series access points to continue to support link
aggregation to a backup switch in the event of a switch failover, even if the backup switch is in a different L3
network.
In previous releases, the GRE striping IP address was defined in the global AP system profile, which did not
allow APs to maintain GRE striping tunnels if the AP failed over to a backup switch in a different L3 network.
If your topology includes a backup switch you must define GRE striping IP settings in the active and the backup switch.
For more information on LACP features in AOS-W, see Configuring LACP on page 158.
