Establishing basic Adaptive AP connectivity

A

1. Select System Configuration -> Adaptive AP Setup from the Access Point’s menu tree.

2. Select the Auto Discovery Enable checkbox.

Enabling auto discovery will allow the AAP to be detected by a switch once its connectivity
medium has been configured (by completing steps 3-6).

NOTE

Auto discovery must be enabled for a switch to detect an AP.

3. Enter up to 12 Switch IP Addresses constituting the target switches available for AAP

connection.

The AAP will begin establishing a connection with the first addresses in the list. If unsuccessful,
the AP will continue down the list (in order) until a connection is established.

4. If a numerical IP address is unknown, but you know a switch’s fully qualified domain name

(FQDN), enter the name as the Switch FQDN value.

5. Select the Enable AP-Switch Tunnel option to allow AAP configuration data to reach a switch

using a secure VPN tunnel.

6. If using IPSec as the tunnel resource, enter the IPSec Passkey to ensure IPSec connectivity.

7. Click Apply to save the changes to the AAP setup.

NOTE

The manual AAP adoption described above can also be conducted using the Access Point’s CLI
interface using the admin(system.aapsetup)> command.
