Error Messages

This section provides you with information on the installation, configuration, and operation of the access point.

When you click Save/Discard Changes, the access point checks for potential problems with the network configuration and security settings. The access point displays error messages under the Possible Configuration Errors heading. Each error message is a hyperlink, which you can click to go to the screen where you can fix the possible configuration error.

You can save the configuration changes without resolving any of the possible configuration errors, but the access point may not operate as expected.

Note

The access point can only check its own configuration for possible errors. It cannot check to see if the SSIDs, passwords, shared secret keys, and other settings are all the same or compatible on other devices.
