Motorola NCAP-500 Series Installation Manual page 27

NOTE If designating the access point as a Standalone AP, Motorola Solutions
recommends the access point's UI be used exclusively to define its device
configuration, and not the CLI. The CLI provides the ability to define more
than one profile and the UI does not. Consequently, the two interfaces
cannot be used collectively to manage profiles without an administrator
encountering problems.
• Adopted to Controller - Select this option when deploying the access point as a controller
managed (Dependent mode) access point. Selecting this option closes the Initial AP Setup
Wizard. An adopted access point obtains its configuration from a profile stored on its
managing controller. Any manual configuration changes are overwritten by the controller
upon reboot.
Select the Automatic controller discovery option to enable the access point to be
discovered and adopted using layer 2 settings. If preferring layer 3 adoption, select the
Static Controller Configuration option, and define the addresses of the preferred
controllers. If using the static method, you'll also need to define whether the access point
receives an IP address using DHCP or if IP resources are provided statically.
10. Select Next. The Initial AP Setup Wizard displays the Access Point Mode screen to define
the access point's routing or bridging mode functionality.
