LABEL

DESCRIPTION

Standalone AP

Select this to manage the ZyXEL Device using its own web configurator,

neither managing nor managed by other devices.

Managed AP

Select this to have the ZyXEL Device managed by another ZyXEL Device

on your network.
When you do this, the ZyXEL Device can be configured ONLY by the

management AP.
If you do not have an AP controller on your network and want to return the

ZyXEL Device to standalone mode, you must use its physical RESET

button. All settings are returned to their default values.

Note: When you set the ZyXEL Device to Managed AP mode,

it becomes a DHCP client. To discover its new IP
address, check the DHCP server on your network. If
your network has no DHCP server, the ZyXEL Device’s
IP address remains the same. You can also check the
Controller > AP Lists screen of the AP controller on
your network.

Apply

Click this to save your changes.

Note: If you change the mode in this screen, the ZyXEL

Device restarts. Wait a short while before you attempt
to log in again. If you changed the mode to Managed
AP
, you cannot log in as the web configurator is
disabled; you must manage the ZyXEL Device through
the management AP on your network.

Reset

Click this to return this screen to its previously-saved settings.
