From the Unified Switch, you can check the discovery status. To view information about
whether the switch discovered the AP, click the Monitoring > Access Points > Managed
Access Points tab. If you have not added the MAC address of the AP to the local or RADIUS
Valid AP database, the AP appears in the Monitoring > Access Point > Authentication
Failed Access Points list, and the failure type is listed as No Database Entry. For more
information about AP validation, see
page 74.
The following example shows how to add a VLAN to the list by using the CLI.
1. From a Telnet, SSH, or serial connection, log on to the D-Link Unified Switch and enter
the Wireless Configuration mode.
(switch-prompt) >enable
Password:
(switch-prompt) #config
(switch-prompt) (Config)#wireless
2. Add a VLAN to the discovery list:
(switch-prompt) (Config-wireless)#discovery vlan-list 4
3. Enter CTRL + Z to return to Privileged EXEC mode.
4. Save the changes to the configuration file:
(switch-prompt) #write
This operation may take a few minutes.
Management interfaces will not be available during this time.
Are you sure you want to save? (y/n) y
Configuration Saved!
To check the managed status from the Unified Switch CLI, enter the following command:
(switch-prompt) #show wireless ap status
Configuring IP Addresses of Peers and APs in the Switch
You can configure up to 256 IP addresses for potential peer switches and APs in the D-Link
Unified Switch. The switch sends association invitations to all IP addresses in this list. If the
device accepts the invitation and is successfully validated by the switch, the switch and the AP
or peer switch are associated.
This discovery method mechanism is useful for peer switch discovery and AP discovery when
the devices are in different IP subnets. In fact, for a switch to recognize a peer that is not on the
same subnet, you must configure the IP addresses of each switch in the peer's L3 discovery
list.
NOTE: The list of IP addresses is separate and independent from the list of valid
managed APs. Devices discovered through this list might not be valid APs or
switches.
NOTE: If an AP has already been discovered through another method, the Unified
Switch will not poll the IP address of the AP.
