Step 10. Install, Register, and Assign APs to the VNS

1. Deploy Wireless APs to their corresponding network locations.
2. If desired, change the default AP template for common radio and VNS (Virtual Networks Services) assignment, whereby APs automatically receive complete configuration. For typical deployments where all APs are to have the same configuration, this feature expedites deployment, as an AP automatically receives full configuration (including WLAN service assignment) upon initial registration with the ExtremeWireless Appliance. If applicable, modify the properties or settings of the Wireless APs.
3. Configure the “Registration mode” that governs how the APs become approved for service with the controllers:

   Registration Mode	Description
   Automatic approval	The AP discovery process automatically approves the AP so that it becomes eligible to provide service in connection with this controller's configuration.
   Restricted Access	APs discovering the controller are not automatically approved but rather held in a state “pending” administrator explicit approval. This setting is highly recommended when several controllers may be available for connectivity, such as Mobility Domains or Availability pairs, as it allows the administrator to define which controller is the master point of configuration (Home) for the particular AP.

4. If a default AP configuration template is defined with WLAN service assignment, an approved AP is automatically assigned to such services.
5. Once the Wireless APs are powered on, they automatically begin the discovery process of the ExtremeWireless Appliance.
