In addition to displaying AP names, wired MAC addresses, serial numbers, IP addresses, FQLNs, and AP status,
the Search Result table displays the AP type and when it was last updating. From here you can modify the
attributes that create the FQLN for the selected AP, using the following drop-down lists:
z Campus—Displays the campus where the AP is deployed. To deploy the AP in a different campus, select a
campus form the drop-down list. The Campus defines the buildings and floors displayed.
z Building—Displays the building where the AP is deployed. To deploy the AP in a different building, select a
building from the drop-down list.
z Floor—Displays the floor where the AP is deployed. To deploy the AP on a different floor, select a floor from
the drop-down list.
To submit your changes, click Set FQLN. Setting the FQLN reboots the APs.
Using the FQLN Mapper in the AP Provision Page
The AP Provision page (available from Configuration > Wireless > AP Installation) allows you to set an FQLN
during the AP provisioning process.
Scroll to the FQLN Mapper near the bottom of the AP Provision page to modify the following attributes that
create the FQLN:
z Campus
z Building
z Floor
The AP name appears in the AP List at the bottom of the page and will be used when provisioning the AP. To
rename an AP, enter the new name in the AP Name field.
To retain the old FQLN value when reprovisioning an AP, do not select the Overwrite FQLN checkbox. However,
if you configure new values for the campus, building, and floor settings, the FQLN value is changed, even if the
Overwrite FQLN checkbox is selected. To remove a previously configured value, you can select N/A for a specific
attribute.
If you provision more than one AP, the selected value for the campus, building, and floor is based on the first
selected AP and applies to all APs. Only the AP name will be different as each AP must have a unique name.
Using the WebUI
1. Navigate to the Configuration > Wireless > AP Installation page. The list of discovered APs appears in the
page.
2. Select the AP you want to set an FQLN, and click Provision.
