To enable or disable Plug and Play, follow these steps:
Step 1 Click System Configuration > PnP.
Step 2 Under PnP, check Enable.
Step 3 In the PnP Transport field, select an option from the drop-down list.
• Auto – PnP Server Discovery downloaded by PnP automatically.
• Static – Select and enter IP/FQDN, port number and select the certificate to be imported from the CA Certificate
drop-down list.
Step 4 Click Apply.
Please note that the router will verify that the identity configured in the server certificate matches the FQDN
or IP address that the router acquires from the DHCP, DNS or the configuration. If the FQDN or IP address is
not recognized, the router will refuse to connect to the server. For the Network Plug and Play to work correctly,
you should ensure that the certificate lists all variations of the server name and IP address(es) in the Subject
Alternative Name field. If you are experiencing issues with your certificate while trying to connect to PnP,
please see Certificate, on page 26 for instructions on how to manage your certificates on the device.
