Connecting the Switch and AP through the L2/L3 Network

The Switch can discover and manage APs whether they are directly connected, connected
through a device in the same subnet, or connected to different subnets.

Connecting to the Core Network

The optional 10GB ports on the DWS-3026 are ideal for uplinking to the core network.
Connections to the Gigabit Ethernet ports are made using a fiber-optic cable or Category 5e
copper cable, depending on the type of port. A valid connection is indicated when the Link
LED is lit.
