enabled on the network, the Aruba Mobility Controllers need to be on the same
broadcast domain as the AP or an “IP Helper” must be configured to direct the
broadcast ADP packets to the Aruba Mobility Controller.

Once these discovery prerequisites are met, the Mobility Controller will respond
to APs with the IP address of the Master Aruba switch. The APs can then obtain
their image and configuration.

To enable ADP on an Aruba Mobility Controller, enter:

(A5000) (config) #adp discovery enable

To enable IGMP-Join on an ADP multicast group on an Aruba Mobility Controller,
enter:

(A5000) (config) #adp igmp-join enable
