Device Configuration 5 - 3
4. Define the following Basic Configuration values for the access point RF Domain:
5. Refer to the Smart Scan field to define the channels for smart scan.
6. Refer to the Statistics field to define how RF Domain statistics are updated.
7. Use the Initial Setup Wizard to configure the device. For more information on using the Initial Setup Wizard, see Using
the Initial Setup Wizard on page 3-2.

5.1.1 RF Domain Sensor Configuration
RF Domain Configuration
The Motorola Solutions’ Wireless Intrusion Protection System (WIPS) protects wireless client and access point radio traffic
from attacks and unauthorized access. WIPS provides tools for standards compliance and around-the-clock wireless network
security in a distributed environment. WIPS allows administrators to identify and accurately locate attacks, rogue devices and
network vulnerabilities in real time and permits both a wired and wireless lockdown of wireless device connections upon
acknowledgement of a threat.
In addition to dedicated Motorola Solutions AirDefense sensors, an access point radio can function as a sensor and upload
information to a dedicated WIPS server (external to the access point). Unique WIPS server configurations can be used to ensure
a WIPS server configuration is available to support the unique data protection needs of a RF Domain.
Location Assign the physical location of the RF Domain. This name could be as specific as the floor
of a building, or as generic as an entire site. The location defines the physical area where
a common set of access point configurations are deployed and managed by the RF Domain
policy.
Contact Provide the name of the contact E-mail (or administrator) assigned to respond to events
created by or impacting the RF Domain.
Time Zone Set the geographic time zone for the RF Domain. The RF Domain can contain unique
country codes and time zone information to access points deployed across different states
or countries, thus making them ideal for managing device configurations across different
geographical deployments.
Country Define the two-digit country code set for the RF Domain. The country code must be set
accurately to avoid the policy’s illegal operation, as device radios transmit in specific
channels unique to the country of operation.
Controller Managed Select the option to indicate this RF Domain is managed by adopting controllers or service
platforms. This option is disabled by default.
Enable Dynamic Channel Select the option to enable dynamic channel scan.
2.4 GHz Channels Use the Select drop-down menu to select channels to scan in the 2.4 GHz band. Selected
channels are highlighted with a grey background. Unselected channels are highlighted
with a white background. Multiple channels can be selected at the same time.
5.0 GHz Channels Use the Select drop-down menu to select channels to scan in the 5.0 GHz band. Selected
channels are highlighted with a grey background. Unselected channels are highlighted
with a white background. Multiple channels can be selected at the same time.
Update Interval Set a statistics update interval of 0 or 5-3600 seconds for updates retrieved from the
access point.
