Provide a minimal set of configuration information by defining the basic settings for your 
wireless network. These settings are all available on the Basic Settings page of the 
Administration Web interface, and are categorized into steps 1-4 on the Web page.

Review the description of this access point and provide IP addressing information. 
For more information, see 

Provide a new administrator password for clustered access points. For more 
information, see 

Set configuration policy for new access points.

Choose to configure new access points automatically (as new members of the cluster) 
or ignore new access points.

If you set a configuration policy to configure new access points automatically, new 
access points added to this network will join the cluster and be configured 
automatically based on the settings you defined here. Updates to the network settings 
on any cluster member will be shared with all other access points in the group.

If you chose to ignore new access points, then as you add new access points they will 
run in standalone mode. In standalone mode, an access point does not share the 
cluster configuration with other access points. Instead it must be configured manually.

You can always update the settings on a standalone access point to have it join the 
cluster. You can also remove an access point from a cluster thereby switching it to 
run in standalone mode.

new settings. For more information, see

If you follow the steps above and accept all the defaults, the access point will have the 
default configuration described in
