Working with AP Registration Rules

Registration rules enable the controller to assign an AP to an AP zone automatically based on the rule that the AP matches.

Note: For SZ300 and vSZ-H platforms, a registration rule is only applied to an AP the first time it joins the controller. If an AP’s MAC address already exists on the controller database (whether it is in connected on disconnected state and whether it belongs to the Staging Zone or any other zone), the controller will assign the AP to its last known AP zone.
Note:
5.1.1 update - only for SZ100
For SZ100 and vSZ-E platforms, a registration rule is only applied to an AP the first time it joins the controller. If an AP’s MAC address already exists on the controller database (whether it is in connected on disconnected state and whether it belongs to the Default Zone or any other zone), the controller will assign the AP to its last known AP zone.

In this section:

  1. Creating an AP Registration Rule
    You must create rules to register an AP.
  2. Configuring Registration Rule Priorities
    The controller applies registration rules in the same order as they appear in the AP Registration Rules table (highest to lowest priority).
