Controller Discovery
The FortiAP boots up with the default FortiWLC AP image
and tries to discover the FortiWLC, FortiGate, and FortiCloud
controllers simultaneously.
The FortiAP connects to the controller that is first
discovered.
• If FortiWLC controller is discovered, the unit continues booting up with the default FortiWLC
image.
• If the FortiGate or the FortiCloud controller is discovered, the unit reboots with the FortiAP
image.
For the FortiAP to discover the FortiCloud controller, you need to add the unique FortiCloud key
labelled on the device to the FortiCloud. See section
FortiCloud Deployment
.
For the FortiAP to complete the FortiGate discovery, you need to authorize the FortiAP on the
FortiGate. See section
FortiGate Deployment
.
To bring the FortiAP back to factory default setting, insert a pin into the reset point on the power
adapter and hold on for 10 seconds. Release the pin.
On the FortiAP image, run the
reload default factory
command to reset the FortiAP to factory default.
