Once you have configure the device and WLAN profile, you are ready to add access points to your network. A network may consist of one or more access points. You can add each access point to the network and select any device and WLAN profile you wish for the AP.
To add access point to your network, you need to click on Network option under Network Management and navigate to the Access Points tab. Click on the + sign in the top-right corner of the Access Point page.
The form should be filled out as follows:
Fields and Buttons | Description |
AP Name |

Each line displays the AP information along with the current status of the AP. The first column displays the image (model) of the AP being managed. The name of the AP, Name of Network, firmware version, private IP and MAC address of the AP are also displayed. The table also displays the number of clients connected to each AP along with the channel information for both 2.4 and 5 GHz radios. It also displays the status and the network name of the AP.
