Accept new Access Points into the WLAN infrastructure manu-
ally
If you prefer not to accept Access Points into the WLAN infrastructure auto-
matically (auto-accept, ’Automatically accept new APs (Auto-accept)’
→
Page 49), you can accept Access Points manually.
Access Point acceptance via LANmonitor
It is especially easy to accept new Access Points with LANmonitor. A configu-
ration is selected that will be assigned to the Access Point after transmission
of a new certificate.
In LANmonitor, click on the new Access Point with the right-hand mouse key.
From the context menu that pops up, you select the configuration which is to
be assigned to the device.
Assignment of the configuration causes the Access Point to be entered
into the AP table in the WLAN Controller. It takes a few seconds for
the WLAN Controller to assign a certificate to the Access Point and for
this to become an active element in the central WLAN infrastructure.
Due to this, the newly accepted Access Point is briefly signaled as a
"Lost AP" by the red Lost AP LED, in the device's display, and in
LANmonitor until assignment of the certificate is completed.
Accepting Access Points via WEBconfig with assignment of a certifi-
cate
New Access Points that do not have a valid certificate but do have an entry in
the AP table can be manually accepted with WEBconfig.
