LANCOMDevices are able to operate in various operating modes:
- SNMP ID:
- 2.23.20.7.3
- Console path:
- Setup > Interfaces > WLAN > Operational
- Possible values:
- Access point
- As a base station (access point), the device makes the link between WLAN clients and the cabled LAN.
- Managed AP
- As a managed access point, the device searches for a central WLAN Controller from which it can obtain a configuration.
- Station
- In station (client) mode, the device itself locates the connection to another access point and attempts to register with a wireless network. In this case the device serves to connect a wired device to a base station over a point-to-point link.
- Probe
- In "Probe" mode, the spectral scan uses the radio module of the access point. The device cannot transmit or receive data in this mode. On startup of the spectral scan, the device automatically switches to "Probe" mode so that this setting need not be configured manually.
- Default:
- Access point
