MSM7xx Controllers Configuration Guide v6.4.0

3. In the Device box, identify the new AP, specifying at a minimum, Device Name, Ethernet BASE
MAC (printed on the label affixed to each AP), and Group.
Select Save. The AP is added to the selected group in the Network Tree and will also be shown
in the Configured APs list.
NOTE:
• When the AP is physically connected to the network, it will discover the controller and
automatically be accepted into the selected group. Make sure you configure the correct MAC
address, otherwise the AP will just be discovered as a new AP and will not be placed into the
selected group.
• If an AP is created with the wrong product type it will go into the Wrong product state when
discovered. (For example, if you specify MSM310 for an AP that is an MSM320.) To remedy
this, select Overview > Discovered APs and select the Accept Products link in the Action column.
(This action will override the pre-configured product setting by the information discovered from
the actual physical AP.)
