Guidelines for Using CAPWAP
with one discovery type CAPWAP or LWAPP exceeds the maximum discovery count and the access point does not receive a discovery response, the discovery type changes to the other type. For example, if the access point does not discover the controller in LWAPP, it starts the discovery process in CAPWAP
