Discovery and registration: Altitude AP registration settings

Summit WM-Series WLAN Switch and Altitude Access Point Software Version 1.0 User Guide

During the “Registration” process, the Summit WM-Series Switch’s approval of the serial number of the

Altitude AP depends on the security mode that has been set:

● Allow all

If the Summit WM-Series Switch does not recognize the serial number, it sends a default

configuration to the Altitude AP.

If it recognizes the serial number, it sends the specific configuration (port and binding key) set for

that Altitude AP.

● Allow approved

If the Summit WM-Series Switch does not recognize the serial number, the operator is prompted to

create a configuration.

If it recognizes the serial number, it sends the configuration for that Altitude AP.

NOTE

It may be advisable, for the initial set up of the network, to select the “Allow All” option here. This is the most

efficient way to get a large number of Altitude APs registered with the Summit WM-Series Switch.

After that, you may want to reset this option to “Allow Approved”, so that no unapproved Altitude APs would be

able to connect. You can modify the status of an unapproved Altitude AP in the Access Approval screen.
