Adaptive AP
10.1 Adaptive AP Overview
An adaptive AP (AAP) is an AP-7131 access point that can adopt like an AP300 (L3). The management
of an AAP is conducted by the switch, once the access point connects to a Motorola WS5100,
RFS6000 or RFS7000 model switch and receives its AAP configuration.
An AAP provides:
• local 802.11 traffic termination
• local encryption/decryption
• local traffic bridging
• the tunneling of centralized traffic to the wireless switch
An AAP’s switch connection can be secured using IP/UDP or IPSec depending on whether a secure
WAN link from a remote site to the central site already exists.
The switch can be discovered using one of the following mechanisms:
• DHCP
•Switch fully qualified domain name (FQDN)
• Static IP addresses
