Network Setup
CAUTION
An Access Point is required to have a DHCP provided IP address before attempting layer 3 adoption, otherwise it
will not work. Additionally, the Access Point must be able to find the IP addresses of the controllers on the
network.
To locate controller IP addresses on the network:
Configure DHCP option 189 to specify each controller IP address.
Configure a DNS Server to resolve an existing name into the IP of the controller. The Access Point has to get
DNS server information as part of its DHCP information.
The controller IP address should be the IP address where APs are adopted. It should not be set to 0.0.0.0.

Editing Default Access Point Adoption Settings

Use the Edit screen to dedicate a target radio as a detector radio, as well as change the radios settings
(placement, power and channel) and advanced properties (antenna setting, maximum associations,
adoption preference etc.).
To edit radio adoption configuration settings:
1 Select Network Setup > Access Point Adoption Defaults from the main menu tree.
2 Click the Configuration tab.
3 Select a radio from the table.
4 Click the Edit button to display a screen to change the radio adoption default values for the currently
selected radio type (either 802.11a or 802.11bg).
