Adding and Registering a Wireless AP Manually
You can manually add and register a Wireless AP to the controller, however, the AP must still go
through the automatic discovery and registration process to locate the controller. The AP may skip
the discovery process if it has a static list, or has previously connected and registered with the
controller. When you manually add and register an AP, the system applies the default settings to
the AP. After the system registers the AP, you can go in and edit its configuration settings. For
more information, see Configuring Wireless AP Settings.
