3. Refer to the 12 available
uses to adopt with a switch.
The access point contacts each switch on the list (from top to bottom) until a viable switch
adoption is made. The access point first populates the list with the IP addresses received
from its DHCP resource. If DHCP is not able to obtain IP addresses, the access point attempts
to resolve the switch's Domain Name if provided within the Switch FQDN parameter.
However, if the access point receives one or more IP addresses from the DHCP server, it will
not solicit an IP address from a user provided domain name. Lastly, provide static (manually
provided) IP addresses to the list as long as there is room. The access point will defer to
these addresses if DHCP and a provided domain address fail to secure a switch adoption.

a switch. Consequently, the access point will not be able to obtain
an AAP configuration. For an overview of AAP and instructions on
