Manual Adoption Configuration

A manual controller adoption of an AAP can be conducted using:
Static FQDN—A controller fully qualified domain name can be specified to perform a DNS lookup
●
and controller discovery.
Static IP addresses—Up to 12 controller IP addresses can be manually specified in an ordered list the
●
AP can choose from. When providing a list, the AAP tries to adopt based on the order in which they
are listed (from 1-12)
NOTE
An AAP can use its LAN or WAN Ethernet interface to adopt. The LAN is PoE and DHCP enabled by
default.
The WAN has no PoE support and has a default static AP address of 10.1.1.1/8.

Securing a Configuration Channel Between Controller and AP

Once an access point obtains a list of available controllers, it begins connecting to each. The controller
can be either on the LAN or WAN side of the access point to provide flexibility in the deployment of
the network. If the controller is on the access point's LAN, ensure the LAN subnet is on a secure
channel. The AP will connect to the controller and request a configuration.
