Connecting Access Points

After you have configured the controller, use Category-5, -5e, -6, or -7 Ethernet cables to connect Cisco lightweight access points to the network.

As soon as the controller is operational, it starts to scan for access points. When it detects one, it records the its MAC address in its database. The controller RRM feature then automatically configures the access point to start sending and allowing clients to associate.
