Discover and Manage Access Points

131

ProSAFE Wireless Controller WC7600

After the access points are added to the Managed AP List, the wireless controller

upgrades the firmware of the access points to the latest firmware that is loaded on the

wireless controller, and the access points become managed access points. Depending

on the number of access points that you add to the Managed AP List, this process might

take several minutes.

By default, the access point upgrade process uses multicast. If you need to configure a

specific multicast IP address range for the upgrade process or disable multicast, see

Configure Multicast Firmware Upgrade for Access Points on page 224.

If one or more access points do not transition to the Connected state (see the Status

column in the Managed

AP List), see Resolve Problems with Access Points on page 300.

For information about how to manage the Managed AP List, see Manage the Managed

AP List on page 131.

Manage the Managed AP List

After you have added discovered access points to the Managed AP List, you can view the

status of the access points on the list, change information for selected access point on the

list, and remove access points from the list.

View the Managed AP List
