4.1.4 Notes on CAPWAP
This section lists some additional features of ZyXEL’s implementation of the CAPWAP
protocol.
• When the AP controller uses its internal RADIUS server, managed APs also use the AP
controller’s authentication server to authenticate wireless clients.
• Only one AP controller can exist in any single broadcast domain.
• If a managed AP’s link to the AP controller is broken, the managed AP continues to use
the wireless settings with which it was last provided.
