Vinc,

You are right . Most 350s have the Vx *&^%$ stuff in them all thought I believe
there are two tools up on the CISCO site to change them to CISCO IOS.

Casually perusing the 350 docs, it appears as though what you're trying to 
do _should_ be possible with the 350.

Then again, the 350's run that awful VxWorst operating system, so who 
knows.  ;)

I'd try that, but that basically means you're taking the AP out of service 
for a while.  (You're kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place here.)

Why can't you just take all the MAC addresses that are on the access 
points, put them in FR, and then have the AP _only_ check FR?  Wouldn't 
that eliminate an unnecessary layer of uncertainty?
