Migrating from a Virtual Controller Managed Network to Mobility Controller Managed Network
An W-IAP can be converted to an ArubaOS Campus AP. You have to configure the IP address of the controller in
the Instant UI. Before converting the W-IAP, ensure that both the W-IAP and controller are configured to
operate in the same regulatory domain. After conversion the W-IAP acts as an ArubaOS Campus AP.
1. At the top right corner of Instant UI, click the Maintenance link. The Maintenance box appears.
NOTE: Only the Dell PowerConnect W-IAP92 supports external antenna configuration. Skip this section, if you are using W-IAP93
or W-IAP105. For appropriate configuration values, see the relevant W-IAP documentation.
NOTE: Migrating from a virtual controller managed network to mobility controller managed network is a one way transition. An
Dell OS Campus AP cannot be converted to an W-IAP.
