Configuring the wireless APs for the first time
Discovery timers
The discovery timer parameters dictate the number of retry attempts and the time delay 
between each attempt.
To define the discovery process parameters: 
1. From the main menu, click Wireless AP Configuration. The HiPath Wireless AP screen 
appears.
2. In the left pane, click AP Registration. The Wireless AP Registration screen appears.

During the initial setup of the network, it is recommended to select the Allow all 
Wireless APs to connect option. This option is the most efficient way to get a 
large number of wireless APs registered with the HiPath Wireless Controller.
Once the initial setup is complete, it is recommended that the security mode is 
reset to the Allow only approved Wireless APs to connect option. This option 
ensures that no unapproved wireless APs are allowed to connect. For more 
information, see Section 5.5, “Modifying wireless AP settings”, on page 81.
