Configure Set up the following network components:
•
Sites. Network segmentation based on geographical location. Use sites to define boundaries
for fast roaming and session mobility without interruption. Sites are comprised of Device
Groups that organize network devices by platform, oering common configuration and RF
Management.
•
Devices. Configure access points, radio settings, switches, and adoption rules.
•
Networks. Configure network services that bind a wireless LAN service (WLANS) to a default
role.
•
Policy. Define policy rules to specify network access settings for a specific user role.

large number of APs. A set of rules defines the device group assignment for new APs, when
they register for the first time. Without adoption rules defined, you must manually select each
AP for inclusion in a device group.
