B.4.1.2 Adopting an Adaptive AP Using a Configuration File
To adopt an AAP using a configuration file:
1. Refer to
Adopting an Adaptive AP Manually
2. Export the AAP's configuration to a secure location.
Either import the configuration manually to other APs or the same AP later (if you elect to default its configuration).
Use DHCP option 186 and 187 to force a download of the configuration file during startup (when it receives a DHCP
offer).
NOTE

B.4.2 Switch Configuration
A Motorola Solutions RF Switch (running firmware version 3.1 or later) requires an explicit adaptive configuration to adopt
an Access Point (if IPSec is not being used for adoption). The same licenses currently used for AP300 adoption can be used
for an AAP.
Disable the switch's
leave as default. In default mode, any AAP adoption request is honored until the current switch license limit is reached.
To disable automatic adoption on the switch:

option to allow AAP configuration data to reach a switch using a secure VPN
The manual AAP adoption described above can also be conducted using the
Access Point's CLI interface using the admin(system.aapsetup)>
command.
When an Adaptive AP is adopted over an IP Sec Tunnel you cannot export the
configuration file to a system on the other side of the IP Sec Tunnel. You may still
export the configuration file to a system local to the AAP.

<Fully qualified Domain Name for the Wireless Switch>
<Hashed IPSec Passkey - configure on 1 AP and export to get hashed key>
<Value of "1" denotes Non-IPSec Mode and "2" denotes IPSec Mode>
Options 189 and 192 are mandatory to trigger adoption using DHCP options.
Unlike an AP300, option 189 alone won't work. These options can be embedded
in Vendor Specific Option 43 and sent in the DHCP Offer.
