Provisioning Access Points

Chapter 2

enabled on the network, the Aruba Mobility Controllers need to be on the same broadcast domain as the AP or an “IP Helper” must be configured to direct the broadcast ADP packets to the Aruba Mobility Controller.

Once these discovery prerequisites are met, the Mobility Controller will respond to APs with the IP address of the Master Aruba switch. The APs can then obtain their image and configuration.

To enable ADP on an Aruba Mobility Controller, enter:

(A5000) (config) #adp discovery enable

To enable IGMP-Join on an ADP multicast group on an Aruba Mobility Controller, enter:

(A5000) (config) #adp igmp-join enable

NOTE: If you have location-specific configurations for your Access Points, you will need to apply this configuration information using AP Reprovisioning. Refer to the ArubaOS User Guide for details on AP Reprovisioning and see the feature description below.

AP Reprovisioning

AP Reprovisioning is the process by which APs are assigned, for example, location codes. Location codes are important for recalibration and triangulation. For details on AP Reprovisioning, see the ArubaOS User Guide.

AP Provisioning

AP Provisioning is useful for brand new APs with default configurations. To perform AP Provisioning from the WebUI:

1.Go to Maintenance > Program AP.

On this window, there are two tabs: Provisioning and Reprovisioning. The Provisioning tab is selected by default.
