8 Performing a Pre-Installation Configuration
The following procedures ensure that your access point installation and initial operation go as
expected for a Cisco wireless controller-based (i.e. having a physical controller device) network. This
procedure is optional.
Note Performing a pre-installation configuration is an optional procedure. If your network
controller is properly configured, you can install your access point in its final location and
connect it to the network from there. See the
“Deploying the Access Point on the Wireless
Network” section on page 31 for details.
The pre-installation configuration setup is illustrated in Figure 4.
