RF Optimizations: Benefits
– Band steering• Automatically directs faster 802.11na clients to 5GHz spectrum
– Concurrent operation in 5GHz band• Both radios use 5GHz spectrum to optimize 802.11n performance
– Standards-based beamforming: open loop operation• Transmitter assumes a reciprocal channel
• Transmitter calculates the steering matrix based on training symbols
• Reduced transmission overhead versus implicit beamforming
• Delivers performance improvements without client support
Benefits
• Improved noise immunity
• Fewer sources of interference
• Increased channel availability
• Higher utilization of 40MHz channels

Controller Teaming – Firmware Upgrade
– When the administrator tries to upgrade the firmware via the WEB
Management tool on the Preferred master of a Team, a pop up
message will appear with the following text:
• “By clicking ‘Yes’, I acknowledge that I have obtained all the legal rights necessary to
update all of the MSM controllers configured in this group to a newer version of
software, and am in compliance with the terms of the End User License Agreement. If
any of these MSM controllers may not be lawfully updated, please click ‘No’ to exit this
configuration, and no update will be performed.”

E-MSM 317 - Loop Protection
– In cases where spanning tree cannot be used to prevent loops at the
edge of the network, loop protection may provide a suitable
alternative. Unlike spanning tree, however, loop protection is not a
comprehensive loop detection feature and should only be enabled on
untagged edge ports, that is, ports that connect to unmanaged
switches and/or clients at the edge of the network.
10
Show Tech
The purpose of the show tech command is to gather data
that helps the support engineer to troubleshoot customer
issues and to prepare an escalation using a single
command:
• The data will be displayed on the console or saved in an
unencrypted file and since the data is visible to anybody with
access to the device, only status and configuration information is
included
11
LLDP-MED with the E-MSM317 Access Device– The MSM317 switch ports already have the required configuration
parameters for LLDP MED auto deployment; each port has its own LAN, Layer 2 and Layer 3 QoS and PoE settings. However, to implement auto deployment an extra layer is required between MED and the switch ports.
– To send the Network Policy TLV, the Application type (Table 5) must be configured first. The 5400zl switch series tie the application type to a VLAN (Voice VLAN for example) and send the network policy TLV on each tagged or untagged port to that VLAN.
– The MSM317 switch ports can be tagged to any VLAN (no restricted to a Network profile). Therefore, either the port should be tied to an application type or application type profiles can be preconfigured with QoS and VLAN information. The advantage of using an application type profile is that it brings consistency when configuring several devices.
12
PayPal
– Pal offers a service which allows its members to send and receive
money without sharing any financial information. The integration of this
service with the MSM devices will expand the options of HP’s
customers to offer paid wireless subscription services.
– At this time, HP offers integration with Authorize.net and WorldPay, but
there are some limitations with their services. PayPal would offer a
good solution to some of them –e.g. merchant’s geographical location.
