3.6 How to Configure Management Modes

This example shows you how to configure the NWA's controller AP and manage AP
modes.

3.6.1 Scenario

In this example, you are the administrator of a company network wherein a group
of users need stable wireless connection. These users are employees who move
around the company building a lot, yet need to connect to network resources at
various times of the day.
Currently you have 4 NWA standalone APs (A, B, C and D) in each floor of the 4-
storey company building. Though the current setup works, it takes a lot of your
time to edit profiles in the APs because of their location. You want to convert one
of your NWA to a controller AP (A) which will allow you to manage all 4 NWA APs
using the Web Configurator of this newly transformed NWA controller AP.
