Getting Started
Before ezMaster is able to manage a Neutron device, the access point/switch must be running with the
required firmware version. All Neutron devices will need to be running firmware version c1.6.x or later.
With ezMaster, you'll be able to manage both local and remote access points. The table below lists the
methods of how access points are managed.
AP Location
Details
Local
All local devices (in same subnet) will be automatically detected and ready for
management in the “Pending Approval” list under Device Management >
Device Config in each project. (Note: ezMaster does not need to be registered
to the ezRegistration server if you are only managing local access points)
Remote
Register ezMaster to the ezRegistration server. Then “claim” your access
points to add them to ezMaster’s “Device Inventory”. Devices successfully
claimed will automatically be listed in the “Pending Approval” list under
Device Management > Device Config in each project.
Remote
Manually assign the ezMaster server URL from theAP user interface (under
Management > Controller Settings). If configured successfully, the access
point will connect directly the the ezMaster and it will be automatically detected
and ready for management in the “Pending Approval” list under Device
Management > Device Config in each project. (Note: ezMaster does not need
to be registered to the ezRegistration server if you are managing access points
using this method).
Tip: Offline provisioning is possible for remote devices by simply redirecting the device's IP Address to
ezMaster or registering the device to ezMaster before installing these devices at the desired location.
