AP Properties Tab - Basic Settings

Field	Description
Serial #	Read-only. Displays a unique identifier (serial number) that is assigned during the manufacturing process.
Host Name	Read-only. This value, which is based on AP Name, cannot be directly edited. This value depicts the AP Host-Name value. If the AP Name value does begin with a number, for example when it is the AP serial number, the AP model is prepended to the value. This value is used for tracking purposes on the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server.
Name	Read-only. Displays the serial number of the AP.
Location	Define the location of the AP. When a client roams to an AP with a different location, Area Notification is triggered. The Area Notification feature is designed to track client locations within pre-defined areas using either the Location Engine (for more information, see Configuring the Location Engine) or the AP Location field. When the clients change areas, a notification is sent. Location functionality on the AP is useful when access to Extreme Management Center OneView is not available.
Zone	Zone is a label that can be sent to a RADIUS server in place of an AP BSSID in the called-station-id attribute. It can be easier to base authorization decisions on the zone label rather than on the BSSID. Each AP can have its own Zone label although it is often useful to assign the same Zone to multiple APs.
Description	Type comments for the AP.
Topology	Read only. The Topology name with which the AP is registered.
AP Environment	Select — Indoor or Outdoor. This property is available for outdoor APs only, indicating where the AP is deployed. Note: The Outdoor APs can be deployed in both indoor and outdoor environments.
Hardware Type	Select the hardware model of this AP from the drop-down menu. With ExtremeWireless v10.01 each controller is licensed in a specific domain. There are three types of domain licenses: FCC, ROW, and MNT. The ExtremeWireless user interface reflects the domain of the controller. The following are use cases for each domain: A wireless controller with an FCC license can manage AP37xx, AP38xx, and AP39xx-FCC. These access points can be deployed in the United States, Puerto Rico, or Colombia. A wireless controller with a ROW license can manage AP37xx, AP38xx, and AP39xx-ROW. These access points can be deployed in any country except the United States, Puerto Rico, or Colombia. A wireless controller with a MNT license can manage only domain-locked access points, which are the AP39xx-FCC and the AP39xx-ROW only. The AP39xx-FCC must be deployed in the United States, Puerto Rico, or Colombia. The AP39xx-ROW must be deployed in any country except the United States, Puerto Rico, or Colombia. Note: The AP37xx and AP38xx cannot connect to a controller licensed in the MNT domain.
Application Version	Displays the ExtremeWireless release version.
Status	Approved — Indicates that the AP has received its binding key from the controller after the discovery process. If no status is shown, that indicates that the AP has not yet successfully been approved for access with the secure controller. You can modify the status of an AP on the Access Approval screen. For more information, see Modifying the Status of a Wireless AP.
Active Clients	Displays the number of wireless devices currently associated with the AP.
Role	Displays the role for the AP. Note: You can only view these options here. You cannot change them. Options include: Traffic Forwarding — Normal Operation. Applies to all APs. Guardian — Once the AP is configured as a Guardian, the AP stops forwarding traffic and dedicates both radios to threat detection and countermeasures. For more information, see Configuring an AP as a Guardian. The AP can be configured in one of three sub-modes: Out-of-Service with its radios off Providing full bridging functionality without RADAR Providing full bridging functionality and In-Service RADAR. For more information, see Configuring a Guardian Scan Profile.
Country	Click the country of operation. Note: The antenna you select determines the available channel list and the maximum transmitting power for the country in which the AP is deployed.
