What to Do Next
Once you complete the device setup wizard, a pop-up presents you with your next options.

interfaces.
 If you want to modify the default access rules, select Configure Policy to configure and manage traffic
policies.
You can select either option, or dismiss the pop-up to return to the Device Dashboard.
7. Configure the Wireless Access Point (ASA 5506W-X)
The ASA 5506W-X includes a Cisco Aironet 702i wireless access point integrated into the device. The wireless
access point is disabled by default. Connect to the access point web interface so that you can enable the wireless
radios and configure the SSID and security settings.
The access point connects internally over the GigabitEthernet1/9 interface. All Wi-Fi clients belong to the
GigabitEthernet1/9 network. Your security policy determines how the Wi-Fi network can access any networks on
other interfaces. The access point does not contain any external interfaces or switch ports.
The following procedure explains how to configure the access point. The procedure assumes that you completed
the device setup wizard. If you instead manually configured the device, you might need to adjust the steps based
on your configuration.
For more information, see the following manuals:
 For details about using the wireless LAN controller, see the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller Software
