If the Registration Type is set to Manual, the controller AP add managed APs to a queue in the Un-Managed Access Points List in the Controller > AP Lists screen.

If the Registration Type is set to Always Accept, the controller AP immediately adds the AP to the Managed Access Points List in the Controller > AP Lists screen.

For this example, we set the Registration Type to Manual.

2Select the NWA managed APs from the Un-Managed Access Points List as shown in the screen above. You can also identify these managed APs by filling in the Description field. Click Add.

3The 2nd, 3rd and 4th floor NWA managed APs (B, C and D) should now be in the Manged Access Points List. By default, newly added managed APs in the list have their WLAN Radio Profile set to disabled. This means that their wireless functions are turned off.

Note: The NWA controller AP uses WLAN Radio Profile to categorize different wireless settings present in a managed AP. Each profile contains the SSID, security mode, RADIUS, Layer-2 Isolation and MAC filter configurations.
