ZyMesh Provision
Group
By default, this shows the MAC address used by the NXC’s first Ethernet port.
Say you have two AP controllers (NXCs) in your network and the primary AP controller is not
reachable. You may want to deploy the second/backup AP controller in your network to
replace the primary AP controller. In this case, it is recommended that you enter the primary AP
controller’s ZyMesh Provision Group MAC address in the second AP controller’s ZyMesh
Provision Group field.
If you didn’t change the second AP controller’s MAC address, managed APs in an existing
ZyMesh can still access the networks through the second AP controller and communicate with
each other. But new managed APs will not be able to communicate with the managed APs in
the existing ZyMesh, which is set up with the primary AP controller’s MAC address.
To allow all managed APs to communicate in the same ZyMesh, you can just set the second AP
controller to use the primary AP controller’s MAC address. Otherwise, reset all managed APs to
the factory defaults and set up a new ZyMesh with the second AP controller’s MAC address.
Next Click this button and follow the on-screen instructions to update the AP controller’s MAC
address.
