Section 3: Configuring the Access Point
LAPAC1750PRO Access Point Software User Manual
Mode The Mode defines the Physical Layer (PHY) standard the
radio uses.
Note: The modes available depend on the country
code setting and radio.
Select one of the following modes for each radio
interface:
• IEEE 802.11b/g — 802.11b and 802.11g clients can
connect to the AP.
• IEEE 802.11b/g/n — 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n
clients operating in the 2.4-GHz frequency can
connect to the AP.
• IEEE 802.11n — Only 802.11n clients operating in the
2.4-GHz frequency can connect to the AP.
• IEEE 802.11a — Only 802.11a clients can connect to
the AP. This mode is available only on Radio 2.
• IEEE 802.11a/n/ac — 802.11a, 802.11n, and 802.11ac
clients operating in the 5-GHz frequency can connect
to the AP. This mode is available only on Radio 2.
• IEEE 802.11n/ac — 802.11n clients and 802.11ac
clients operating in the 5-GHz frequency can connect
to the AP. This mode is available only on Radio 2.
Station
Isolation
To enable Station Isolation, select the check box directly
beside it.
When Station Isolation is disabled, wireless clients can
communicate with one another normally by sending
traffic through the AP.
When Station Isolation is enabled, the AP blocks
communication between wireless clients on the same
VAP. The AP still allows data traffic between its wireless
clients and wired devices on the network, across a
Wireless Distribution System (WDS) link, and with other
wireless clients associated with a different VAP, but not
among wireless clients.
AeroScout™
Engine
Protocol
Support
Options are Enabled or Disabled. The default is Disabled.
When enabled, Aeroscout devices are recognized
and data is sent to an Aeroscout Engine (AE) for
analysis. The AE determines the geographical location
of 802.11-capable devices, such as STAs, APs, and
AeroScout’s line of 802.11-enabled RFID devices, or
tags. The AE communicates with APs that support the
AE protocol in order to collect information about the
RF devices detected by the APs. Using the AE protocol,
LAPAC1750PRO supports direct communication between
AE and the APs. When operating in managed mode, the
AE is configured with the IP address of the managed
access points from which it collects information. The
Wireless Switch cannot communicate with the AE.
Note: Only AeroScout tag hardware of types T2 and
T3 are explicitly supported. Other tag models are also
supported only if their implementation of the AeroScout
protocol conforms to the AeroScout Engine - Access
Point Interface Specification, version 2.1.
Note: AeroScout tags operate only in 802.11 b/g
mode. Therefore, network administrators who use the
AeroScout tags must configure at least one radio on APs
that are expected to detect tags in either 802.11b/g or
802.11b/g/n mode. The radios configured in 2.4 GHz IEEE
802.11 mode or any of the 5GHZ modes cannot detect
AeroScout tags.
Note: The AE protocol allows access points to mark
detected APs as rogue devices. The LAPAC1750PRO APs
do not support this feature and never report detected
APs as rogues.
