Key Features and Benefits

USR5453 Professional Access Point

Cluster up to 8 Access Points

SSID: PrdMgt – Channel: 6 – Security: WEP

SSID: PrdMgt – Chan: 6 – Sec: WEP

Cluster• Primary AP is

configured…• New APs are detected

by the Primary • Existing configuration is

“auto-magically” transferred to each

new AP without user intervention

Other benefits of using Clustering

Use clustering to get MAC addresses to the whole network.• A MAC address identified in one AP will be automatically copied to the rest

of the cluster of up to AP’s.

Reduce downtime – an unskilled person can install an AP• Simply replace an access point and the cluster will auto configure it.• Technician visit to a location is not necessary

Configure more than 8 AP’s by connecting to a Switch for the initial ‘reference AP’ configuration process.

• Configure first ‘Reference AP’ and attach to a switch• Insert second AP, power up, configuration is copied automatically• Remove second AP physically and install in proper network• Delete second AP from ‘Reference AP’ list• Insert another AP, power up, configuration is copied automatically etc..
