To specify the WX switch a 

Distributed MAP contacts and attempts to use as its boot device, use the 
following command:

set ap apnumber boot-switch [switch-ip ip-addr] [name name 
dns ip-addr] [mode {enable | disable}]

You can specify the WX switch by its fully qualified domain name; in this 
case, you also specify the address of the DNS server used to resolve the 
WX switch’s name. If you specify both the address of the WX switch, and 
the WX switch’s name and DNS server address, then the MAP ignores the 
WX switch’s address and uses the name.

When a static IP address is specified for a Distributed MAP, there is no 
preconfigured DNS information or DNS name for the WX switch the 
Distributed MAP attempts to use as its boot device. If you configure a 
static IP address for a Distributed MAP, but do not specify a boot device, 
then the WX switch must be reachable via subnet broadcast.

The following command configures Distributed MAP 1 to use the WX 
switch with address 172.16.0.21 as its boot device.

WX# set ap 1 boot-switch switch-ip 172.16.0.21 mode enable 
success: change accepted.

The following command configures Distributed MAP 1 to use the WX 
switch with the name wxr100 as its boot device. The DNS server at 
172.16.0.1 is used to resolve the name of the WX switch.

wx1200# set ap 1 boot-switch name wxr100 dns 172.16.0.1 mode 
enable
success: change accepted.

To specify 802.1Q VLAN tagging 

information for a Distributed MAP, use the following command:

set ap apnumber boot-vlan vlan-tag tag-value [mode {enable | 
disable}] 

When this command is configured, all Ethernet frames emitted from the 
Distributed MAP are formatted with an 802.1Q tag with a specified VLAN 
number. Frames sent to the Distributed MAP that are not tagged with 
this value are ignored.
