Device Configuration 5 - 195
4. The Virtual Controller AP screen lists all peer access points within this Virtual Controller’s radio coverage area. Each
listed access point is listed by its assigned System Name, MAC Address and Virtual Controller designation. Only Standalone
APs of the same model can have their Virtual Controller AP designation changed.
5. Either select an access point from those displayed and select Edit, or use the device browser in the lower left-hand side of
the UI to select an access point.

6. Select the Set as Virtual Controller AP radio button to change the selected access point’s designation from Standalone
to Virtual Controller AP. Remember, only one Virtual Controller can manage (up to) 24 access points of the same model. Thus,
an administrator should take care to change the designation of a Virtual Controller AP to Standalone AP to compensate for
a new Virtual Controller AP designation.
7. Select the Adopt Unknown APs Automatically option to allow a Virtual Controller to adopt APs it does not recognize.
While this option may help in the administration and management of all the APs in the network, it introduces the risk of
allowing device association to a potential rogue device. Consequently, this setting is disabled by default.
8. Select OK to save the changes. Select Reset to revert to the last saved configuration. Select Delete to remove obsolete
rows as needed.
