Note: The AC Discovery settings are not available in all Zyxel Devices. See
14 for more information.
If you want to return the Zyxel Device to function in standalone mode, you can do one of the two
following options:
• Press the Reset button.
• Check the AC for the Zyxel Device's IP address and use FTP to upload the default configuration file to
the Zyxel Device. You can get the configuration file at conf/system-default.conf. You must reboot the
Zyxel Device after uploading the configuration file.
To access the Controller Discover screen, click Configuration > Network > AC Discovery.

DESCRIPTION
Select this option to use DHCP option 138/DNS SRV record/Broadcast to get the AC's IP
address. If the Zyxel Device and a Zyxel AC, such as a ZyWALL ATP, are in the same
subnet, it will be managed by the controller automatically.
Select this option and enter the IP address of the AC manually. This is necessary when
the AP Controller is not in the same subnet and you want it to manage the Zyxel
Device.
Specify the primary and secondary IP address of the AC to which the Zyxel Device
connects.
Select this to manage the Zyxel Device using its own Web Configurator, neither
managing nor being managed by other devices. Please note if an AP Controller is in
the same subnet, you will need to click Disable if you do not want the Zyxel Device to
be managed.
Click Apply to save the information entered in this screen.
If you select Auto or Manual, the AC uploads the firmware package for managed AP
mode to the Zyxel Device and you cannot log in as the web configurator is disabled;
you must manage the Zyxel Device through the AC on your network.
Click Reset to return the screen to its last-saved settings.
