Changing the AP Installation Mode
By default, all AP models initially ship with an indoor or outdoor installation mode. This means that APs with an
indoor installation mode are normally placed in enclosed, protected environments and those with an outdoor
installation mode are used in outdoor environments and exposed to harsh elements.
In most countries, there are different channels and power that are allowed for indoor and outdoor operation.
You may want to change an AP’s installation mode from indoor to outdoor or vice versa.
In the WebUI
To configure the installation mode for an AP, follow these steps:
1. Navigate to the Configuration > Wireless> AP Installation page. The list of discovered APs are displayed
on this page.
2. Select the AP you want to change.
3. Click Provision to reveal the Provisioning page.
Locate the AP Installation Mode section. By default, the Default mode is selected. This means that the
AP installation type is based on the AP model.
