NOTE: The IAPs in US, JP, or IL regulatory domain which are in factory default state will scan for several minutes after booting. An
IAP mesh point in factory default state will automatically join the portal if only a single Instant mesh network is found. In addition,
the auto-join feature must be enabled in the existing network.
NOTE: The IAP mesh point will get an IP address from the same DHCP pool as the portal, and this DHCP request goes through the
portal.
