Discover additional WA Series APs for automatic BakPak
enrollment
Instead of individually enrolling each WA Series AP, you can discover all
additional WA Series APs directly through BakPak, saving you significant
deployment time—especially for your larger installs.
Tip:
You can also learn this process from the Smart Skill
Applying
WA-2200 Configuration Settings to Multiple Access Points Simultaneously

To discover additional WA Series APs:

Ensure all additional APs are powered on and connected to the network.

In BakPak, select the WA Series AP site that you created, then click
Device Discovery.
Any additional WA Series APs are discovered and appear as tiles that can
be selected (already selected by default).

Copying settings to multiple APs through BakPak
In addition to the AP’s built-in interface, most AP configuration settings
are also available through BakPak—SSIDs, transmit power levels, channel
selection, and roaming features, and more. Using BakPak, all of those settings
can be copied from one WA Series AP to all others on the same BakPak Lite
site.
• The
SSID Configuration
tab provides SSID and guest SSID settings
(enable/disable, delete, and add SSID) and password settings. These
settings were already completed during the first AP’s initial setup.
• The
Advanced Settings
tab includes time zone, band-steering, channel
selection and width, wireless mode, transmit power, and roaming.
To copy an AP’s settings to multiple APs through BakPak:
1
Click the site for the WA Series APs, then click the access point to modify
or copy.
2
Modify the desired settings, if any, in the
SSID Configuration
and
Advanced Settings
tabs, then click
Save & Apply Multiple
in each tab.
Important:
After making changes in either tab, make sure you click
Save
& Apply Multiple
in both tabs for all changes to take effect.
