3   Secure the Aruba 60/61, if desired.

    To prevent the unauthorized removal of the Aruba 60/61 from its installed location, use a
    Kensington MicroSaver Security Cable (not included). Wrap the security cable around an
    immovable object, insert the cable’s lock into the Kensington Security Slot on the back of
    the Aruba 60/61, and turn the key.

4   Orient the antennas.

For best performance, swivel the individual antennas (Aruba AP 60) or antenna array (Aruba
AP61) so that they are oriented vertically (see Figure 3-1 on page 24). Once mounting is
complete, connect the required cables (see instructions on page 30).


Using the Optional Mounting Kits
Use the optional mounting kit to attach the Aruba 60/61 to a wall, shelf, or ceiling. For
installation, see the Aruba AP 60/61 Mounting Kit Installation Notes (P/N 0500037-01)
provided with each kit.

          Connecting Required Cables
                The Aruba 60/61 Access Points with or without external antennas are intended only for
                installation in Environment A as defined in IEEE 802.3.af. All interconnected equipment
                must be contained within the same building, including the interconnected equipment's
                associated LAN connections.


                Selecting an FE Cable
                The 10/100 Mbps Ethernet (FE) port is used to connect the AP to a 10Base-T/100Base-TX
                (twisted-pair) Ethernet LAN segment. The appropriate FE cable depends on the features
                required of the FE port:
                z SPOE
                    When connecting the AP to a device that supports Serial and Power Over Ethernet
                    (SPOE), use an 8-conductor, Category 5 UTP, straight-through FE cable.
                    The Aruba 5000 (with Line Card LC-5000-24FE-2GE-SPOE), the Aruba 2400, and the
                    Aruba 800 support SPOE.
                z POE
                    If the connecting device supports only Power Over Ethernet (POE), use a 4- or
                    8-conductor, Category 5 UTP, straight-through FE cable.
                z Network Only
                    If the connecting device does not support POE, use a 4- or 8-conductor, Category 5 UTP,
                    FE cable. The port detects MDI/MDX and automatically adjusts for straight-through or
                    crossover cables.
                The maximum length for FE cables is 100 meters (325 feet).
                When the Aruba 60/61 is installed in an air-handling space, such as above suspended ceilings,
                as described in National Electrical Code (2002) Article 300.22(C), and Canadian Electrical
                Code, Sections 2-128, 12-010(3) and 12-100, Part 1, CSA C22.1, POE is required. Also, any
                FE cable installed in such spaces should be suitable under NEC Article 800.50 and marked
                accordingly for use in plenums and air-handling spaces with regard to smoke propagation,
                such as CL2-P, CL3-P, MPP, or CMP.
                Use the built-in antenna (for the AP61). For the AP 60, use Aruba AP-ANT-1. For all other
                antennas, make sure the antenna cable is UL listed and suitable for use in plenums and
                air-handling spaces, such as CL2-P, CL3-P, MPP, or CMP, and mount the antenna outside of
                the air-handling space.
                Install cables in accordance with all applicable local and national regulations and practices.

“To AP” Specifications
The RJ-45 connector labeled “To AP” attaches to the Aruba 60/61 FE port either directly (if
the AP is physically available) or indirectly (if the AP is already deployed).
When connecting indirectly, use a straight-through FE coupler to attach the “To AP” connector
to the FE cable leading directly to the AP’s FE port with no intervening hubs, routers, or other
network equipment. The cable must be 8-conductor, Category 5 UTP, straight-through FE
cable with a maximum length of 100 meters (325 feet).
The Aruba 60/61 and serial breakout adapter are plenum rated. When is installed in an
air-handling space, as described in NEC (2002) Article 300.22(C), any connecting FE cable
should be suitable under NEC Article 800.50 and marked accordingly for use in plenums and
air-handling spaces with regard to smoke propagation, such as CL2-P, CL3-P, MPP or CMP.
Install cables in accordance with all applicable local regulations and practices.


“To Network” Specifications
The RJ-45 connector labeled “To Network” attaches to an FE LAN segment. This
connection is optional unless IEEE 802.11af Power Over Ethernet (POE) is used to power the
AP during manual provisioning.
A straight-through FE coupler may be used to attach the “To Network” connector to a LAN
FE cable. The appropriate cable depends on the level of connectivity required of the FE port:
z If the connecting device supports IEEE 802.3af Power Over Ethernet (POE), use a 4- or
  8-conductor, Category 5 UTP, straight-through FE cable with male RJ-45 connectors.
    The Aruba 5000 (with Line Card LC-5000-24FE-2GE-SPOE), the Aruba 2400, and the
    Aruba 800 support SPOE.
z Otherwise, use a 4- or 8-conductor, Category 5 UTP, FE cable with male RJ-45
  connectors. The port detects MDI/MDX and automatically adjusts for straight-through
  or crossover cables.

                                                                           Port Specifications     35

     Installation Guide                                                                           October 2004


APPENDIX B
Troubleshooting
  After provisioning and deployment, the Aruba 60/61 can be configured and managed through
  the Aruba WLAN Switch. However, the Aruba 60/61 includes built-in troubleshooting fea-
  tures for situations where the switch commands are unable to diagnose AP problems.
  This appendix describes using the built-in AP support prompt for troubleshooting.



Accessing the AP Support Prompt
  Depending on your network topology, the built-in AP Support prompt can be accessed using
  the AP serial console port or through the WLAN switch using the Serial Over Ethernet (SOE)
  interface or using Telnet from a remote management station.


  Direct SPOE Connection to WLAN Switch
  This method requires that the Aruba 60/61 is connected directly to an SPOE-compatible net-
  work port on the Aruba WLAN Switch (see “Connecting Required Cables” on page 30).
  1   Telnet to the Aruba WLAN Switch Serial-Over-Ethernet (SOE) interface.
      Use a Telnet client on your management workstation to connect to theAruba WLAN
      Switch IP address using logical port 2300. The connection command may vary depending
      on the specific software used, but commonly appears as follows:

   > telnet <WLAN switch IP address> 2300




                                                                          Troubleshooting      37
                                                                              Appendix B


                2    When prompted, log in to the Aruba WLAN Switch as the administrator:

                 user: admin
                 password: <administrator password (not displayed)>

                     This will present you with the Aruba WLAN Switch SOE console prompt:

                 Available commands:
                   baud [9600|19200|38400|57600|115200]
                   connect <slot/port>
                   exit (no args)
                 soe>

                3    Connect to the Aruba WLAN Switch port to which the Aruba 60/61 is physically
                     attached:

                 soe> connect <slot number>/<port number>

                where slot number is the physical slot of the line card in the WLAN switch, and port number is
                the physical port.
                If the AP has not finished booting, allow the Autoboot timer to expire. When the device has
                booted, the AP support prompt (#) will appear.


                Direct Terminal Connection
                This method requires that the Aruba 60/61 is connected to a compatible serial console using
                the Aruba serial breakout adapter (see “Connecting the Console Terminal” on page 15).
                1    Set up your local terminal.
                     This procedure requires a terminal or computer running terminal emulation software
                     with the following settings:
                                 Table 3-2     Console Terminal Settings

                    Baud Rate        Data Bits              Parity         Stop Bits        Flow Control
                      9600                 8                 None                1                None

                2    Establish console communication.
                Press <Enter> a few times to establish communication between the Aruba 60/61 and termi-
                nal.
                If the AP has not finished booting, allow the Autoboot timer to expire. When the device has
                booted, the AP Support prompt (#) will appear.

Remote Telnet Connection
If properly set up, the AP support prompt can be accessed remotely using Telnet. By default,
this feature is turned off for security purposes and cannot be turned on using the AP interface.


Setting Telnet Access
Telnet access can only be changed from the WLAN switch management interface. Log in to
the WLAN switch CLI using the admin account, access the configuration (config)
prompt, and issue the following commands:

 (Aruba 5000) (config) # ap location <building>.<floor>.<device>
 (Aruba 5000) (sap-config location b.f.d) # telnet {enable|disable}


Using Telnet to Connect
Use a Telnet client on your management workstation to connect to the Aruba 60/61’s individ-
ual IP address. The connection command may vary depending on the specific software used,
but commonly appears as follows:

 > telnet <Aruba 60/61 IP address>

When the connection is established, the AP support prompt (#) will be displayed.

  Power Over Ethernet
  The Aruba 60/61 supports the IEEE 802.3af standard for Power Over Ethernet (POE). With
  this feature, the Aruba 60/61 can accept electrical power from a compatible POE-capable
  device (such as the Aruba 5000 (with Line Card LC-5000-24FE-2GE-SPOE), Aruba 2400, or
  Aruba 800) directly over the FE cable. POE eliminates the need to provide separate power
  outlets in environments that are difficult or undesirable to wire for electricity.
  The Aruba 60/61 also supports “inline” and “midspan” POE devices for normal operation.
  Inline power is POE that is integrated into FE ports and provides POE directly to devices.
  Non-POE ports can have POE added by means of a mid-span device that provides POE. The
  non-POE port is connected to a mid-span POE port, and this mid-span port is connected to
  the device that requires POE.
