The EAP supports two configuring options:
To configure and manage EAPs singly (usually suitable for a small network with a few EAPs),
Standalone Mode is recommended. Please refer to Option 1.
To configure and manage EAPs in batch, Controller Mode is recommended. Please refer to
Option 2.
A DHCP server (typically a router with DHCP function enabled) is required to assign IP addresses to
the EAPs and clients in your local network.
Omada Hardware Controller (OC200/OC300), which is pre-installed with Omada Software Controller, is a
good alternative if you have no spare PC to keep running Omada Software Controller in the network.
It
needs to be purchased additionally.
For more details, refer to the Installation Guide of OC200/OC300.
