New APs that do not have a valid certificate and do not have an entry in the AP table can be manually accepted by means of a wizard in WEBconfig. A configuration is selected that will be assigned to the AP after transmission of a new certificate.
-
Open the WLC configuration with WEBconfig. Click on Setup Wizards and select the wizard Assign access points to profiles.
-
Click on the link to start the wizard. Select the desired AP by means of its MAC address and choose the WLAN configuration that is to be assigned to it.
Note: Assignment of the configuration causes the AP to be entered into the AP table in the WLAN controller. It takes a few seconds for the WLC to assign a certificate to the AP and for this to become an active element in the central WLAN infrastructure. Due to this, the newly accepted AP is briefly signaled as a "Lost AP" by the red "Lost AP" LED, in the device's display, and in LANmonitor until assignment of the certificate is completed.
