Hi, everyone! Today I’m going to introduce be careful with endpoint mode.
In some scenarios, you may configure the AP's port mode to endpoint. For example, AP5030DN, you need to connect port G0/0/1 to the PC.
The correct configuration is:
<AC6605> system-view
[AC6605] wlan
[AC6605-wlan-view] ap-group name ap-group1
[AC6605-wlan-ap-group-ap-group1] quit
[AC6605-wlan-view] wired-port-profile name wired
[AC6605-wlan-wired-port-wired] mode endpoint
Warning: If the AP goes online through a wired port, the incorrect port mode configuration will cause the AP to go out of management
. This fault can be recovered only by modifying the configuration on the AP. Continue? [Y/N]:y[AC6605-wlan-wired-port-wired] quit
[AC6605-wlan-view] ap-group name ap-group1
[AC6605-wlan-ap-group-ap-group1] wired-port-profile wired gigabitethernet 1
In some case, if you band the wired-port-profile to gigabitethernet 0, if AP reboot , the AP will can't online. How to recover this ?
We can do like this:
1, We need modify the configuration on AC, let the wired-port-profile band G0/0/1
2,There is a default button on the AP. Press and hold this button for more than 3 seconds to restore the AP to factory settings.
or
1, We need modify the configuration on AC, let the wired-port-profile band G0/0/1
2, login AP with serial cable, then use 'reset factory' to restore the AP to factory settings.
or
1, We need modify the configuration on AC, let the wired-port-profile band G0/0/1
2, Login POE switch, and set static arp for AP, for example:
arp static 169.254.1.1 0011-2233-4400 (169.254.1.1 is the AP default IP, 0011-2233-4400 is the AP mac)
set vlanif 1 IP address: 169.254.1.2
set the PVID of the port which AP connected to vlan 1
then use stelnet login AP: stelnet 169.254.1.1, the default account is :
user name: admin, password:admin @huawei.com
then use 'reset factory' to restore the AP to factory settings.
