CHAPTER 16
LEDs
16.1 Overview
The LEDs of your NWA/WAC can be controlled such that they stay lit (ON) or OFF after the NWA/
WAC is ready. There are two features that controls the LEDs of your NWA/WAC - Locator and
Suppression.
16.1.1 What You Can Do in this Chapter
•The Suppression screen (Section 16.2 on page 175)) allows you to set how you want the LEDs
to behave after the device is ready.
•The Locator screen (Section 16.3 on page 176) allows users to see the actual location of the
NWA/WAC between several devices in the network.
16.2 Suppression Screen
The LED Suppression feature allows you to control how the LEDs of your NWA/WAC behave after
it’s ready. The deafult LED suppression setting of your AP is different depending on your NWA/WAC
model.
You can go to Maintenance > LEDs > Suppression screen to see the default of the LED behavior.
If the Suppression On check box is checked, it means the LEDs of your NWA/WAC will turn off
after it’s ready. On the other hand, if the check box is unchecked, it means the LEDs will stay lit
after the AP is ready.
You can change the LED suppression setting in the Maintenance > LEDs > Suppression screen.
After you make changes in the suppression screen, it will be stored as the default when the NWA/
WAC is restarted. See (Section 1.6 on page 20) for information on default values for different
models.
Note: When the NWA/WAC is booting or performing firmware upgrade, the LEDs will lit
regardless of the setting in LED suppression.
To access this screen, click Maintenance > LEDs > Suppression.
