Configuration Guide Connecting APs As the APs are connected to the network, they should automatically find the controller via the LWAPP discovery algorithms. The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server will assign each AP an IP address. You can configure a DHCP server to run on a remote PC for a small deployment. However, for large-scale deployments, an enterprise- grade DHCP server must be used. The ap-manager and management interfaces’ configuration should include the
