LABEL | DESCRIPTION |
AP Controller | Select this to manage other APs (in Managed AP mode) via this |
| NWA. As of writing, the NWA can manage other ZyXEL APs only. |
| When you select this and click Apply, you are logged out of the |
| Web Configurator and have to log in again. The screens vary from |
| the default standalone mode to include the controller AP menus. |
|
|
Standalone AP | Select this to manage the NWA using its own web configurator, |
| neither managing nor managed by other devices. |
|
|
Managed AP | Select this to have the NWA managed by another NWA on your |
| network. |
| When you do this, the NWA can be configured ONLY by the |
| management AP. |
| If you do not have an AP controller on your network and want to |
| return the NWA to standalone mode, you must use its physical |
| RESET button |
| default values. |
| Note: When you set the NWA to Managed AP mode, it |
| becomes a DHCP client. To discover its new IP |
| address, check the DHCP server on your network. If |
| your network has no DHCP server, the NWA’s IP |
| address remains the same. You can also check the |
| Controller > AP Lists screen of the AP controller on |
| your network. |
|
|
Auto AP Controller IP | Check this is you want to send a request (to be managed) to any |
(DCHP Server Option | AP controller within broadcast range. |
