Disabling the Provisioning Wi-Fi Network
The provisioning network is enabled by default. Instant provides the option to disable the provisioning
network through the console port. Use this option only when you do not want the default SSID instant to be
broadcast in your network.
To disable the provisioning network:
1. Connect a terminal or PC/workstation running a terminal emulation program to the Console port on the W-
IAP.
2. Configure the terminal or terminal emulation program to use the following communication settings:
Baud Rate Data Bits Parity Stop Bits Flow Control
9600 8 None 1 None

3. Power on the W-IAP. An autoboot countdown prompt that allows you to interrupt the normal startup
process and access apboot is displayed.
4. Click Enter before the timer expires. The W-IAP goes into the apboot mode through console.
5. In the apboot mode, use the following commands to disable the provisioning network:
n apboot> factory_reset
n apboot> setenv disable_prov_ssid 1
n apboot> saveenv
n apboot> reset
