Mounting Location - General Guidelines
4 - Mounting Location - General Guidelines
• Locate the access point in a central location. Higher mounting can provide better coverage.
• Avoid mounting near kitchens or rooms with large appliances that may give off EMI noise, which can reduce connection speed, and in extreme cases, block WiFi connectivity altogether.
• As a rule of thumb, each access point can cover about a 300 ft (100m) radius (actual performance varies based on multiple variables).
• Plan multiple access points at least 200 ft apart. Signal should overlap but only slightly.
• Use network site survey tools (not included) to determine mounting locations if possible. This will ensure you get the best coverage and performance from your installation.
Pro Tip – Professional site survey tools are available from vendors in the market such as
Metageek and Fluke Networks.

9.3 - DHCP/Static IP Address Method
Connect your computer to the network wired or wirelessly and enter the IP address issued to the access point by the network, or the default IP address, 192.168.20.253.
Note – If the WAP is not issued a DHCP IP address on the network, access the device using the default IP address.
9.3.1 - Finding the IP Address of the Access Point
The WAP is configured to DHCP by default so that the DHCP server can assign an IP address when the
WAP is connected to the network (the DHCP server is usually the router). This address can be used for accessing the web interface.
1. Use one of these methods to find the IP address of the WAP:
• Check the client table on your router
• Use a network scanner (e.g. Fing) to sniff the network. The Araknis WAP manufacturer field will display Snap AV.
• See the highlighted field in the figure below for an example of an Araknis device being identified.
Figure 13. Fing IP Scanner Example
2. Once the IP address is found, enter it in your web browser and log in. (Default: araknis/araknis)

Product Manual
Wireless Settings
15.3.1 - Fast Roaming Mode
This powerful feature, known in Araknis products as Fast Roaming, is essential for building reliable WiFi networks with multiple access points. After a client joins a WiFi network, they don’t always stay close to the WAP they originally connected to.
Without Fast Roaming, the client will remain connected to one WAP until signal is lost, then find a new connection. Fast Roaming tells the client when to move the connection, then makes the switch with minimal delay. This keeps clients on the fastest and most reliable WAP at all times.
Special Setup Requirements
• Two or more WAPs, all with wired LAN connections
• All WAPs set to Access Point operating mode with Fast Roaming enabled
• Same SSID configuration on each WAP
Installation Notes
• WEP security mode does NOT work with Fast Roaming.
Configure SSIDs using other encryption modes.
• How do I configure the locations of WAPs for the best performance?
Use a site analyzer tool to determine ideal WAP locations. For the best performance, use more
WAPs closer together and reduce the transmit power some to avoid interference (Advanced
Wireless Settings).
• Does it matter what operating channel is used?
If you aren’t using Auto Operating Channel selection, use a different wireless radio channel in each
WAP to lower the amount of interference each device encounters.
• Do fast roaming and band steering work together?
Yes, configure each one based on individual needs. Remember, some devices may not be compatible with these features.
• How do I set up Guest Networks with Fast Roaming enabled?
The guest network feature is not ideal for use with Fast Roaming since each WAP creates a new
DHCP server for clients connected to that SSID. Instead, create a separate VLAN and assign SSIDs
for guest use. See section “24.1 - Configuring Guest Networks with Fast Roaming” on page 79
for setup instructions.
• Is this a proprietary technology for Araknis Networks?
No. Fast Roaming utilizes the standard IEEE 802.11r and 802.11k to negotiate handoff with the client.
Only clients that support 802.11r/k are able to perform best in this environment.
• Do any other WAP brands that support Handoff work with Araknis Fast Roaming?
We don’t guarantee compatibility with any other brands, but will list them if we find any that are.
• Does any equipment NOT work with Fast Roaming/Handoff?
• Gen 1 Apple iOS products won’t work. Most newer iOS devices work correctly.
• Check the product page support tab at www.snapav.com
for recent updates on compatibility issues.

15.7 - Configuring the WAP as a Repeater
Repeater mode is used when more Wi-Fi coverage is needed but there is no way to get cables from the wired LAN to new WAP locations. One WAP physically connected to the LAN communicates wirelessly with the repeater WAP(s) and clients connect to the WAPs like normal.
Since repeater mode uses Wi-Fi for communicating with both clients and the LAN, users will have an overall slower experience using their client device. Assume that available bandwidth to a client will be halved for each “hop” the signal completes from WAP to WAP before reaching the wired LAN.
Pro Tip – It is always better to get a wire to a WAP location than to use repeater mode.
Special Setup Requirements
• At least one WAP with a wired LAN connection
• Additional WAP(s) with local power but no LAN connection (must be in range of the wired WAP)
• SSID configuration on each WAP
Installation Notes
• Do Fast Roaming and Repeater mode work together?
Not for the radio being used as a repeater. Fast Roaming is not required for repeater mode.
• Can repeater WAPs be used as a wireless bridge? (LAN port to switch or client device)
Yes. Connect an Ethernet patch cable from the Ethernet port on the repeater WAP to the client device LAN port.
• Can multiple unwired repeater WAPs connect to one wired WAP?
Yes.
• If a 300/500/700 series WAP is configured using one radio in repeater mode, can I configure more SSIDs on the other radio?
Yes. All traffic will be sent to the wired LAN over the repeater antenna.
• Can an all Araknis WAPs work together using Repeater mode?
Yes.

23.5.3 - Understanding Spectrum Analyzer Results
Usage View
Figure 61. Spectrum Analyzer Usage View
Advanced Menu
The Usage View displays approximate bandwidth use around the scanned channel. Higher values indicate higher use. Ideally, the channel selected for use will display little to no usage.
If your results are similar to the graph shown, try reducing the RSSI filter (closer to zero) to see if spikes of activity become more obvious at certain frequencies. As long as client devices connect at stronger
RSSI values than the selected scan setting, wireless traffic should not be adversely affected by the activity indicated on the graph.
Waveform View
Figure 62. Spectrum Analyzer Waveform View
The Waveform view shows the aggregate energy recorded at each scanned frequency. Marks on the graph represent the power level at which signals are being recorded, and the color of the mark rougly estimates how much data is flowing at that level.
For the best performance, avoid using frequencies where colors indicate high traffic (see scale in bottom right of image).

The Real-time view indicates the current, average, and maximum power level of scanned signals since the scan was started:
• Current – Average power level shown in the Waveform view. If the current reading is closer to the maximum than the average, the frequency should typically be avoided.
• Average – Average power of Waveform view data since since the scan began. This view averages across time as well as data points for any one frequency. Avoid frequencies with spikes above the rest of the graph.
• Maximum– Maximum power of Waveform view data since since the scan began. This is the maximum recorded at any given time and frequency of the current scan. Compare to the average and current reading to determine if a channel should be avoided.

23.9 - VLAN Settings
A Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is a group of IP Network devices whose IP addresses have been set to run on a particular IP Network. These devices will typically only ‘see’ the other devices on their network and most likely the Internet. A VLAN ID or ‘tag’ can be assigned to data packets that pass through the access point to maintain the integrity of the VLAN by identifying which data belongs to which VLAN.

Path – Advanced, VLANS
Parameters –
Note – The 100 Series will indicate settings and information for the 2.4GHz channel. The
300/500/700 Series will indicate settings and information for the 2.4GHz and 5GHz channels.
• VLAN Isolation – Select Yes to assign a VLAN ID.
Default: Not selected.
• SSID – Indicates the network name of the VLAN being tagged. Any Wireless VLANs that need to be tagged should be added in the Wireless Settings page under Wireless Networks. If a Wireless
VLAN does not appear in the VLAN Settings List, check the Wireless Settings page under
Wireless Networks to see if it is enabled. If it is not, Enable, Save, then Apply Changes.
• Interface – Indicates the 2.4GHz or 5GHz Interface for a given SSID.
• VLAN ID – Enter a value for the VLAN ID. RANGE: 1-4094.
Default: Blank

24.1 - Configuring Guest Networks with Fast Roaming
The Guest Network feature is used to provide Internet access to clients while restricting them access from the main network using a separate DHCP server on a different subnet. This works well for WLANs with only one WAP. But when the job calls for a guest network on multiple WAPs with Fast Roaming for seamless handoff, the Guest Network feature is not the right solution.
In these installs, configure network SSIDs for guests on a separate VLAN. This allows the DHCP server in the router to handle guest client addresses on all the WAPs, which gives Fast Roaming to all guest network clients.
Setup Requirements
• Multiple WAPs with fast roaming required for Guest Network SSID
• Router with VLAN support (Araknis AN-300-RT-4L2W used for example)
• Managed Switch (Araknis AN-310-SW-R-8-POE used for example)
Step 1 – Configure the WAPs (repeat for all)
1. Log in as an Administrator.
1. In the Wireless Settings menu, configure Fast Roaming and SSIDs for primary WLAN clients like normal, then add SSID(s) for guest network use. (Use the same settings on each WAP!)
2. In the WAP Advanced VLANs menu, configure the guest network SSID(s) on the desired VLAN.
This example uses VLAN 2 for the guest network.
3. Be sure to apply changes after all settings have been changed. Set up in the WAPs is now complete.
Continue to the next section and complete managed switch setup.

Product Manual
Step 2 – Configure the Managed Switch
1. Log in and go to the VLAN Settings menu.
2. Click Add to create a new VLAN for the guest network SSID(s).
Appendix
In this example, we have 3 WAPs to configure, connected to ports 5, 6, and 7 on the switch. Port 1 connects the managed switch to the router.
3. Configure the settings for the VLAN:
A.
VLAN ID – Enter the same ID number for the guest VLAN as used in the WAPs.
B.
Name – Enter a name for the guest network VLAN.
C.
Access Port/Trunk Port – Click one of the fields to open the selection box. Since the WAPs tag packets for both VLAN 1 and 2, you must configure each port on the switch with a connected
WAP as a trunk port for VLAN 2. The port connecting the switch to the router must also be configured as a trunk port so the packets are not dropped.
4. Click Apply to save the changes. Managed switch setup is now complete. Continue to the next section and complete router setup.

Step 3 – Configure the Router
1. Log in and go to the Advanced VLANs menu.
2. Click Add to create a new VLAN entry.
Appendix
3. Configure the settings for the VLAN:
A. VLAN ID – Enter the same ID number for the guest VLAN as used in the other devices (VLAN
2 in this example).
B. Description – Enter the same information used in the VLAN Name field of the managed switch.
C. Inter VLAN Routing – Set to Disabled for a guest network so guests don’t get access to the rest of the network.
D. Device Management – Select Disabled so that guest clients can’t access the router management interface.
E. Route Binding – Set whether routes use the WAN1 or WAN2 port. Leave set to none for link failover.
F. LAN1/2/3/4 – Set all LAN ports to “Tagged” using the dropdowns.
4. Click Apply to save the settings. Configuration is complete.
Step 3 – Test the Guest Network
To test guest network functionality, connect a device to the SSID and confirm that the IP address issued is on the new VLAN subnet.
Next, move around the job with the connected device. You should see the client device listed in each
WAP’s Connected Clients table (Path: Status, Wireless Interface) as you move around the job.
