Chapter 2 AP Management Note: If the Zyxel Device is already registered to NCC, the controller will be unable to manage it. An AC uses Control And Provisioning of Wireless Access Points (CAPWAP, see RFC 5415) to discover and configure multiple managed APs. 2.2 Switching Management Modes The Zyxel Device is in standalone mode by default, with NCC and/or AC discovery enabled. Standalone-to-NCC Register the Zyxel Device at the NCC website and then turn on the Zyxel Device. Make sure that NCC Discovery is enabled (see Section 9.6 on page 115). The NCC manages the Zyxel Device automatically when it is discovered. Settings on the Zyxel Device will be overwritten with what you have configured on the NCC website. Standalone-to-AC By default, the Zyxel Device must be in the same subnet as the AC. See Section 9.1.1 on page 104 for setting it up in a different subnet. Make sure AC Discovery is enabled (see Section 9.5 on page 113). The AC manages the Zyxel Device automatically when it is discovered. AC-to-NCC Register the Zyxel Device at the NCC website. Make sure that NCC Discovery is enabled on your Zyxel Device (see Section 9.6 on page 115). In the AC Web Configurator, select the Zyxel Device and press the Nebula button. The NCC manages the Zyxel Device automatically when it is discovered. NCC-to-AC Unregister the Zyxel Device at the NCC portal. By default, the Zyxel Device must be in the same subnet as the AC. See Section 9.1.1 on page 104 for setting it up in a different subnet. Make sure AC Discovery is enabled (see Section 9.5 on page 113). The AC manages the Zyxel Device automatically when it is discovered. NCC-to-Standalone Unregister the Zyxel Device from the NCC organization/site. The Zyxel Device will automatically reset to its factory defaults and return to standalone mode. AC-to-Standalone Use the Reset button to return the Zyxel Device to its factory default settings (see Section 28.6 on page 275). NWA/WAC/WAX Series User's Guide 33

Note: If the Zyxel Device is already registered to NCC, the controller will be unable to manage
it.
An AC uses Control And Provisioning of Wireless Access Points (CAPWAP, see RFC 5415) to discover and
configure multiple managed APs.
2.2
Switching Management Modes
The Zyxel Device is in standalone mode by default, with NCC and/or AC discovery enabled.
Standalone-to-NCC
Register the Zyxel Device at the NCC website and then turn on the Zyxel Device. Make sure that
NCC
Discovery
is enabled (see
Section 9.6 on page 115
). The NCC manages the Zyxel Device automatically
when it is discovered. Settings on the Zyxel Device will be overwritten with what you have configured on
the NCC website.
Standalone-to-AC
By default, the Zyxel Device must be in the same subnet as the AC. See
Section 9.1.1 on page 104
for
setting it up in a different subnet. Make sure
AC Discovery
is enabled (see
Section 9.5 on page 113
). The
AC manages the Zyxel Device automatically when it is discovered.
AC-to-NCC
Register the Zyxel Device at the NCC website. Make sure that
NCC Discovery
is enabled on your Zyxel
Device (see
Section 9.6 on page 115
). In the AC Web Configurator, select the Zyxel Device and press
the
Nebula
button. The NCC manages the Zyxel Device automatically when it is discovered.
NCC-to-AC
Unregister the Zyxel Device at the NCC portal. By default, the Zyxel Device must be in the same subnet
as the AC. See
Section 9.1.1 on page 104
for setting it up in a different subnet. Make sure
AC Discovery
is enabled (see
Section 9.5 on page 113
). The AC manages the Zyxel Device automatically when it is
discovered.
NCC-to-Standalone
Unregister the Zyxel Device from the NCC organization/site. The Zyxel Device will automatically reset to
its factory defaults and return to standalone mode.
AC-to-Standalone
Use the
Reset
button to return the Zyxel Device to its factory default settings (see
Section 28.6 on page
275
).
