4.1 About CAPWAP
The ZyXEL Device supports CAPWAP (Control And Provisioning of Wireless Access
Points). This is ZyXEL’s implementation of the IETF’s (Internet Engineering Task Force)
CAPWAP protocol (RFC 4118).
The CAPWAP dataflow is protected by DTLS (Datagram Transport Layer Security).
The following figure illustrates a CAPWAP wireless network. You (U) configure the AP
controller (C), which then automatically updates the configurations of the managed APs (M1
~ M4).
