Ap Management; Chapter 6 Ap Management; Ap Management Overview; Ap Management Commands - ZyXEL Communications UAG Series User Manual

This chapter shows you how to configure wireless AP management options on your UAG.

6.1 AP Management Overview

The UAG allows you to remotely manage all of the Access Points (APs) on your network. You can
manage a number of APs without having to configure them individually as the UAG automatically
handles basic configuration for you.
The commands in this chapter allow you to add, delete, and edit the APs managed by the UAG by
means of the CAPWAP protocol. An AP must be moved from the wait list to the management list
before you can manage it. If you do not want to use this registration mechanism, you can disable it
and then any newly connected AP is registered automatically.

6.2 AP Management Commands

The following table identifies the values required for many of these commands. Other input values
