2. Click Adaptive AP Setup:  
a. Using DNS, enter the FQDN of the controller.  
b. Enter the controller IP addresses.  
c. Click the Auto Discovery Enable checkbox.  
NOTE: When the Auto Discovery Enable checkbox is selected, the access point begins the controller  
discovery (adoption) process using DHCP first, then a user-provided domain name, and finally using a  
static IP addresses. This setting is disabled by default. When disabled, the AP functions as a  
standalone access point without trying to discover (adopt) a controller. Consequently, the access point  
will not be able to obtain an AAP configuration.  
d. Enter the PSK for the controller.  
Step 5: Adopt AP7131 in the RFS7000  
1. Go to Network > Access Point and click the Unadopted AP tab.  
2. Referencing the correct MAC address, select the correct AP to adopt and click Adopt. Once the AP has been  
adopted, it can be found in the Adopted tab.
