UNIVERGE WL Access Point (External-Antenna) Quick Installation Guide
4.
Once the UNIVERGE WL Operating System code download is successful,
the AP reboots. The GREEN LED turns on and the two YELLOW/AMBER/
ORANGE LEDs indicate the states of the 802.11a and 802.11b/g
networks. If any part of the network is disabled in the UNIVERGE WL
Wireless Controller, the corresponding YELLOW/AMBER/ORANGE LED
remains off.
-
Note that the Red LED can light for a short period (10-20
seconds) when the AP reboots. If the RED LED comes on AND
STAYS ON for more than a minute, disconnect the AP and call
NEC Technical Support.
-
From the CLI, Web Browser or WLCS interface, configure the AP
with its Primary UNIVERGE WL Wireless Controller name.
-
If required, use the CLI, Web Browser or WLCS interface to
customize the AP-specific 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g
network settings. Once again, the two YELLOW/AMBER/ORANGE
LEDs indicate the states of the 802.11a and 802.11b/g
networks. If any part of the network is disabled, the
corresponding YELLOW/AMBER/ORANGE LED remains off.
5.
If everything works (the GREEN LED is on and the RED LED is off),
disconnect the AP and take it to its final destination and install it as
described in this document. If your UNIVERGE WL AP fails this visual
test, refer to the RMA Procedures located in the UNIVERGE WL Product
Documentation to return your UNIVERGE WL APs.
When you are installing a UNIVERGE WL 1200R or a Layer 3 UNIVERGE
WL AP on a different subnet than the UNIVERGE WL Wireless Controller,
MAKE SURE that a DHCP server is available on the subnet where you will
be installing the AP or UNIVERGE WL 1200R, and that the subnet has a
route back to the UNIVERGE WL Wireless Controller. Also make sure that
the route back to the UNIVERGE WL Wireless Controller has destination
UDP ports 12222 and 12223 open for LWAPP communications. Ensure the
route back to the Primary UNIVERGE WL Wireless Controller allows IP
packet fragments. Finally, make sure that if address translation is used,
that the AP and the UNIVERGE WL Wireless Controller have a static 1-to-1
NAT to an outside address. (Port Address Translation is not supported.)
6.
When you have installed and powered up the AP or UNIVERGE WL
1200R in its final destination, verify that the LEDs are in the same state
they were in at the end of Step 4. If no LEDs are on, the AP or
UNIVERGE WL 1200R is most likely not receiving power. If all the LEDs
blink sequentially back and forth for more than five minutes, the AP is
unable to find its Primary UNIVERGE WL Wireless Controller. Check the
connection between the AP and the UNIVERGE WL Wireless Controller,
and make sure the AP and the UNIVERGE WL Wireless Controller are
either on the same subnet or that the AP has a route back to its Primary
UNIVERGE WL Wireless Controller. Note that the UNIVERGE WL 1200Rs
at each remote location must be on the same subnet to allow client
roaming. Also, if the UNIVERGE WL AP or UNIVERGE WL 1200R is not on
the same subnet as the UNIVERGE WL Wireless Controller, make sure
there is a DHCP server on the same subnet as the UNIVERGE WL AP or
UNIVERGE WL 1200R.
After you have prepared all UNIVERGE WL APs, reconfigure the UNIVERGE WL
Wireless Controller so it is not the Master. A Master UNIVERGE WL Wireless
Controller should only be used for configuring UNIVERGE WL APs and not in a
working network.
