SonicOS 7.1 Access Points

Settings

The most effective way to provision wireless access points is let the SonicOS firewall automatically detect the access points and use one of the default profiles. SonicOS includes five default profiles, one for each generation of SonicWall access points: SonicPointN, SonicPointNDR,SonicPointACe/ACi/N2, SonicWave, and SonicWaveAX. These can be used as is, or they can be customized to suit your configuration. You can also build new profiles based on the type of access points you manage.

The DEVICE | Access Points > Settings > Access Point Objects tab displays informational messages and shows the firmware version for all operational access points on the DEVICE | Access Points > Firmware Management page.

The access point profiles are displayed in the Access Point Provisioning Profiles tab. You can edit each profile or add a new profile.

The Access Point Objects tab displays the settings for connected access points, and provides Edit icons to edit them or perform other actions.

When wireless LAN is disabled, all Access Points and Wireless related pages disappear. Wireless Zone is removed from zone type. And any existing WLAN zones or objects are not editable anymore.
