DESCRIPTION
Select Manual to add each AP to the NXC for management, or
Always Accept to automatically add APs to the NXC for
management.
Note: Select the Manual option for managing a specific set of
APs. This is recommended as the registration mechanism
cannot automatically differentiate between friendly and
rogue APs. For details on how to handle rogue APs, see
Section 7.12 on page
APs must be connected to the NXC by a wired connection or network.

for wireless 802.1x authentation (EAP-PEAP/TTLS/TLS).
