Chapter 7 Controlling Lightweight Access Points
Cisco Aironet 1510 Series Lightweight Outdoor Mesh Access Points
MAC Filter List Protects your network against rogue mesh access points by preventing
access points that are not defined in the MAC filter list from joining.
When you check the MAC Filter List check box, the access points reboot
and then rejoin the controller if defined in the MAC filter list. Access
points that are not included in the list cannot join the controller.
If you disable the MAC filter list, mesh access points may still be able
to join the controller. In software release 4.1 or later, mesh access points
join the controller even if they are not specified in the MAC filter list. In
earlier software releases, mesh access points do not join the controller
unless they are defined in the list.
You may want to disable the MAC filter list to allow newly added access
points to join the controller. Before enabling the MAC filter list again,
you should enter the MAC addresses of the new access points.
Note MAC addresses are manually entered on the controller. See the
“Adding the MAC Address of the Access Point to the Controller
Filter List” section on page 7-12 for more details.
Default: Enabled
Note You can use WCS to import files with access point MAC
addresses and push them to the controller. Refer to the Cisco
Wireless Control System Configuration Guide for instructions.
Backhaul Client Access When this feature is enabled, Cisco Aironet 1510 Access Points allow
wireless client association over the 802.11a radio. This implies that a
1510 access point may carry both backhaul traffic and 802.11a client
traffic over the same 802.11a radio. When this feature is disabled, the
AP1510 carries backhaul traffic over the 802.11a radio and allows client
association only over the 802.11b/g radio.
Default: Disabled
Note This parameter is applicable only to the AP1510 because it has
two radios. However, backhaul client access is always
automatically enabled for the AP1505’s single 802.11b/g radio.
Note After this feature is enabled, all mesh access points reboot.
Background Scan Enables or disables background scanning. Refer to the “Background
Scanning in Mesh Networks” section on page 7-33 for more
information.
Default: Enabled
Security Mode Defines the security mode for mesh access points: Pre-Shared Key
(PSK) or Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). Only local
authentication is supported for EAP, and it is provided by the controller.
See Chapter 5 for more information on local EAP.
Options: PSK or EAP
Default: EAP
Note External AAA authentication is not supported.
