CAPWAP — Enables CAPWAP (Control And Provisioning of Wireless
Access Points) protocol tunnel mode.
DNS SRV Discovery — The AP uses DNS server records to discover
the EWS controller to which it can send a CAPWAP join request.
Domain Name Suffix — Specifies the domain suffix of the
controller.
DHCP Option Discovery — The AP uses the DHCP server to obtain
an IP address in the same subnet as the EWS controller, which it can
then discover and send a CAPWAP join request.
Broadcast Discovery — The AP sends broadcast requests to discover
the EWS controller in the same subnet.
Multicast Discovery — The AP sends multicast discover packets across
the network to find the EWS controller. This
option requires routing
paths to be properly configured in the network.
Static Discovery — Provides a manual method to reach an EWS
controller by entering IP addresses that the AP uses to send a CAPWAP
join request.
Hostname — An alias for the AP, enabling the device to be uniquely identified
on the network. (Default: EAP101; Range: 1-63 ASCII characters. Only accepts
A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and dash “-”.)
Enable Reset Button — Enables the AP’s hardware reset button. (Default:
Enabled)
Local Time — The local time, given as day of week, month, time, year.
Number of boot retries — The maximum number of bootup retries before
switching to the next boot bank. (Range: 1-254; Default: 3)
MSP Mode — Enables the Managed Service Provider (MSP) mode that
prevents end-users from accessing and modifying most device settings from
user-defined user accounts. Management access from “root” and “admin”
accounts still provide full access to all device settings. (Default: Disabled)
With MSP mode enabled, service providers have the option of making specific
wireless SSID settings available for user configuration by enabling the “Local
Configurable” setting. See “Wireless Networks — General Settings” on
page 68.
LED Enable — Enables the LED indicators on the AP. (Default: Enabled)
Language — Selects the web interface language. (Options: English,
