Setting the Working Mode for the Central AP's Wired Interface

Procedure

1. Run system-view

   The system view is displayed.

2. Run wlan

   The WLAN view is displayed.

3. Run the wired-port-profile name profile-name command to create an AP wired port profile and enter the profile view.

   By default, the system provides the AP wired port profile default.

4. Run the mode middle command to set the working mode of the AP's wired interface to middle.
   By default,

   • On a common AP (excluding AirEngine series APs): Its GE interfaces work in root mode, Ethernet interfaces in endpoint mode, and Eth-Trunk interfaces in root mode.
   • On a central AP (excluding AirEngine series APs): Its uplink 10GE/GE interfaces in root mode and downlink GE interfaces work in middle mode.
   • On an R230D: Its Ethernet interface works in root mode.
   • On an R240D and AP2051DN-L-S: Their Ethernet interfaces work in endpoint mode and GE interfaces in root mode.
   • On an R250D, R250D-E, AP2050DN, AP5510-W-GP, AP2050DN-S, AP2050DN-E, AP2051DN, AP2051DN-S, AP2051DN-E, R251D, and R251D-E: Their uplink GE interfaces work in root mode and downlink GE interfaces in endpoint mode.
   • On an R450D: Its GE interface works in root mode.
   • AirEngine 5760-10: Its GE interface works in root mode.
   • On an AirEngine 8760-X1-PRO, AirEngine 6760-X1, AirEngine 6760-X1E, and AirEngine 5760-51: Its 10GE/5GE/GE interfaces work in root and Eth-Trunk interfaces work in root mode.
   • On an AirEngine 8760R-X1, AirEngine 8760R-X1E, AirEngine 6760R-51, and AirEngine 6760R-51E: Its 10GE/5GE interfaces work in root, GE interfaces in endpoint, and Eth-Trunk interfaces in root mode.
   • On an AirEngine 5760-22W and AirEngine 5760-22WD: Its 10GE/2.5GE interfaces work in root mode and GE interfaces work in endpoint mode.
   • On an AirEngine 9700D-M: Its uplink 10GE interfaces in root mode and downlink GE interfaces work in middle mode.

   After changing the working mode of the central AP's wired interfaces, restart the AP to make the change effective.

5. Run quit

   Return to the WLAN view.

6. Bind the AP wired port profile to the central AP.
   1. Run the ap-id ap-id, ap-mac ap-mac, or ap-name ap-name command to enter the AP view.

   2. Run the wired-port-profile profile-name interface-type interface-number command to bind the AP wired port profile to the AP.

      By default, no AP wired port profile is bound to an AP.
