Statement 364
Controller-based Deployments
The access point is deployed on Layer 3 networks. Layer 3 is the default mode for a newly configured
wireless LAN controller. This guide assumes that you will be deploying your access point on a Layer
3 network and a DHCP server is available.
Before deploying the access point, make sure the controller to which the access point will associate is
properly configured by performing the following operations:
• Make sure that the wireless LAN controller is set to Layer 3 mode
• Verify the wireless LAN controller software version
• Record the access point BVI MAC address (MAC address is located on the label on the side of the
unit.)
• Enter the access point BVI MAC address to the wireless LAN controller filter list
