xxx denotes the mode the NWA3000-N series AP was previously using.

LABEL DESCRIPTION

AP Controller Select this option to have the NWA3000-N series AP act as a

managing device for other NWA3000-N series APs on your

network. The NWA3000-N series AP only acts as a controller

when you select this. Wireless clients cannot connect directly to

the controller; you have to connect to it through the wired

network.

Standalone AP Select this to manage the NWA3000-N series AP using its own

web configurator, neither managing nor managed by other

devices.

Managed AP Select this to have the NWA3000-N series AP managed by

another NWA3000-N series AP on your network.

When you do this, the NWA3000-N series AP can be configured

ONLY by the management AP. If you do not have an AP controller

on your network and want to return the NWA3000-N series AP to

standalone mode, you must use the its physical RESET button or

the commands. All settings are returned to their default values.

Apply Click this to save your changes.

If you change the mode in this screen, the NWA3000-N series AP

restarts. Wait a short while before you attempt to log in again. If

you changed the mode to Managed AP, you cannot log in as the

web configurator is disabled; you must manage the NWA3000-N

series AP through the controller AP on your network.

Reset Click this to return this screen to its previously-saved settings.
