Configuring MAPs
229
The MAP loads its local image only if the WX is running MSS Version 5.0 
or later and does not have a newer MAP image than the one in the 
MAP’s local storage. If the switch is not running MSS Version 5.0 or later, 
or the WX has a newer version of the MAP image than the version in the 
MAP’s local storage, the MAP loads its image from the WX.
The forced image download option is not applicable to MAP models 
MP-52, MP-101, and MP-122.
Enabling LED Blink Mode
When blink mode is enabled on an AP2750, the 11a LED blinks on and 
off. By default, LED blink mode is disabled. If enabled, blink mode 
continues until you disable it.
When blink mode is enabled on an AP7250, the Radio LED flashes red 
and the Power LED flashes green/orange. The Ethernet LED does not 
change.
Changing the LED blink mode does not alter operation of the MAP. Only 
the behavior of the LEDs is affected.
To enable or disable LED blink mode, use the following command:
set
 
ap apnumber blink {enable | disable}
Configuring MAP-WX
Security
MSS provides security for management traffic between WX switches and 
Distributed MAPs. When the feature is enabled, all management traffic 
between Distributed MAPs that support encryption and the WX is 
encrypted. MAP-WX security is set to optional by default.
The encryption uses RSA as the public key crypto system, with AES-CCM 
for data encryption and integrity checking and HMAC-MD5 for keyed 
hashing and message authentication during the key exchange. Bulk data 
protection is provided by AES in CCM mode (AES CTR for encryption and 
AES-CBC-MAC for data integrity). A 64-bit Message Authentication Code 
is used for data integrity
This feature applies to Distributed MAPs only, not to directly connected 
MAPs configured on MAP access ports.
