Managing Single Point Setup Across WAP Devices
Single Point Setup creates a dynamic, configuration-aware cluster, or group, of
WAP devices in the same subnet of a network. A cluster supports only a group of
configured WAP121 devices or a group of configured WAP321 devices. A single
cluster does not support a mix of WAP121 and WAP321 devices in the same
group.
Single Point Setup allows the management of more than one cluster in the same
subnet or network; however, they are managed as single independent entities.
The table below shows Single Point Setup wireless service limits.
A cluster can propagate configuration information, such as VAP settings, QoS
queue parameters, and radio parameters. When you configure Single Point Setup
on a device, settings from that device (whether they are manually set or set by
default) are propagated to other devices as they join the cluster. To form a cluster,
make sure the following prerequisites or conditions are met:
STEP 1 Plan your Single Point Setup cluster. Be sure the two or more WAP devices you
want to cluster are the same model. For example, Cisco WAP121 devices can only
cluster with other Cisco WAP121 devices.
It is strongly recommended to run the latest firmware version on all clustered WAP
devices.
NOTE Firmware upgrades are not propagated to all WAP devices in a
cluster; you must upgrade each device independently.
STEP 2 Set up the WAP devices that will be clustered on the same IP subnet and verify
that they are interconnected and accessible across the switched LAN network.
STEP 3 Enable Single Point Setup on all WAP devices. See Access Points.
STEP 4 Verify that the WAP devices all reference the same Single Point Setup name. See
Access Points.
