Configuring the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services xl Module
Radio Port Adoption
You set an RP’s ID by selecting one of its radios in the Network Setup > Radio
> Configuration screen and clicking the Edit button.

Then enter a value from 1 to 65535 in the Adoption Preference ID field. Match
the ID that you set for the Wireless Edge Services xl Module that should adopt
this RP.
Remember: RPs do not store their own radio configurations; they receive them
from a Wireless Edge Services xl Module. Therefore, you must create radio
configurations for each RP on each module, and you must set the correct
adoption preference IDs in these radio configurations. This allows the RP to
receive the correct ID no matter which module first detects its adoption
messages.
For example, if your system includes two modules and 30 RPs, you must create
the same radio configurations for all 30 RPs on both modules. And on both
modules, you would set some RP radios to the first module’s adoption prefer-
ence ID and some RP radios to the second module’s ID.
Set the adoption
preference ID to
match the module
that should adopt the
RP.
