Configuring Directly Connected MAP Access Points 2793 To select the radio type for a single-radio model, click the MAP Radio Typebox and select the radio type from the list:■ 11a — 802.11a■ 11b — 802.11b only■ 11g — 802.11b/g4 In the Name box, type a name (1 to 16 alphanumeric characters, with nospaces or tabs).5 In the Serial Number box, type the serial ID of the MAP.The serial ID of the AP2750 might be preceded by 4 digits and a slash(example: 0100/). Do not enter these digits or the slash.6 If you are configuring dual-homing support, in the Bias list, select High orLow.Bias is the priority of one WX connection over other WX connections to asingle MAP for booting, configuration, and data transfer. You can set aDistributed MAP’s bias to be low or high. A configuration with a high biashas priority over a configuration for the same MAP with low bias. Thedefault is High.If the bias for all connections is the same, the MAP selects the WX switchthat has the greatest capacity to add more active MAPs. For example, if aMAP is dual homed to two WX4400 switches, and one of the WXswitches has 50 active MAPs while the other WX switch has 60 activeMAPs, the new MAP selects the WX switch that has only 50 active MAPs.Bias applies only to WX switches that are indirectly attached to the MAPthrough an intermediate Layer 2 or Layer 3 network. A MAP alwaysattempts to boot on MAP port 1 first, and if the MAP is directly attachedto a WX switch on MAP port 1, it boots from that WX switch regardlessof the bias settings.7 In the Enable Blink list, select Yes to enable LED blink mode or No todisable it.Blink mode enables you to visually identify a MAP. When blink mode isenabled on an AP2750, the 11a LED blinks on and off. When blink modeis enabled on other models (MP-xxx), the health and radio LEDsalternately blink green and amber. By default, blink mode is disabled.8 In the Enable Firmware Update list, select Yes to automatically upgradeMAP boot firmware. The upgrade version of the firmware is loaded froma WX when the MAP is booting.
