"Starting the Management Session"

You must have the following to initiate a management session on the
access point:
 Network with a DHCP server and a route for the access point to the
Internet.
When you power on the access point for the first time, it will obtain
an IP address from the DHCP server, and then it must be able to
access the Internet to register itself with the AlliedView Cloud
service.
 Serial number for the access point.
To start the initial management session on the access point, perform the
following.
1. Create an AlliedView Cloud account at avcloud.alliedtelesis.com for
the management of the access points. Refer to the AlliedView Cloud
User's Guide.
Note
This account will share the login credentials with the Allied Telesis
Support portal account.
2. Add one or more access points to the account by entering the access
point name and serial number. Refer to the AlliedView Cloud User's
Guide.
3. If not done already, power on the access point: the access point
automatically registers with the AlliedView Cloud once a name and
serial number is assigned, and the unit is powered up.
4. Refer to the AlliedView Cloud User's Guide to add the access point to
the network and configure the access point.
