7 Install and add devices.
Access Points and switches are automatically added to an ExtremeCloud Appliance configuration
via the cloud-connector when the DHCP and DNS prerequisites have been met. However, you can
use the Add function to pre-provision any AP or switch before they connect, allowing them to be
added to the correct site.
AP discovery behavior depends on your site configuration and whether or not you are using
adoption rules:
•
If you have a device group with a valid profile and a valid adoption rule, the APs are automatically
added to the proper device group.
•
If you have a device group with a valid profile, but no adoption rules, the APs are listed in the
device group where you can manually add them to the group.
•
If you do not have a valid device group for the AP, the AP is listed on the Devices list with an In-
Service Trouble status. Once a valid device group is created, the AP is automatically listed within
the device group, where you can manually add it to the group.
8 (Optional) Add one or more floor plans for each site.
