5.7 Basic Settings For A Standalone Access Point
The Basic Settings tab for a standalone access point indicates only that the current
mode is standalone and provides a button for adding the access point to a cluster
(group). If you click on any of the Cluster tabs on the Administration pages for an
access point in standalone mode, you will be re-directed to the Basic Settings page
because Cluster settings do not apply to standalone APs.
For more information see “Standalone Mode” on page 58 and “Adding An Access
Point To A Cluster” on page 62.
5.8 Your Network At A Glance: Understanding Indicator
Icons
All the Cluster settings tabs on the Administration Web pages include visual indica-
tor icons showing current network activity.
Icon Description
When one or more APs on your network are available for service, the “Wireless Network
Available” icon is shown. The clustering icon indicates whether the current access point is
“Clustered” or “Not Clustered” (that is, standalone).
For information about clustering, see “Understanding Clustering” on page 56.
The number of access points available for service on this network is indicated by the “Access
Points” icon.
For information about managing access points, see Chapter 6: “Managing Access Points &
Clusters”.
Then number of client user accounts created and enabled on this network is indicated by the
“User Accounts” icon.
For information about setting up user accounts on the access point for use with the built-in
authentication server, see Chapter 7: “Managing User Accounts”. See also “IEEE 802.1x” on
page 131 and “WPA/WPA2 Enterprise (RADIUS)” on page 136, which are the two security
modes that offer the option of using the built-in authentication server.
