Conguration
“Self-PIN Number” is AP’s PIN. Whenever users want to change
AP’s PIN, they could click “Regenerate PIN” and then click “ Apply
Changes”. Moreover, if users want to make their own PIN, they
could enter four-digit PIN without checksum and then click “ Apply
Changes”. However, this would not be recommended since the
registrar side needs to be supported with four-digit PIN.

The length of PIN is limited to four or eight numeric digits. If users

message popping up. If users insist on this PIN, AP will take it.
