Navigating to Conguration Information for a Specic AP

In general, the UAP is designed for central management of clustered access points. For access points in a cluster,

all access points in the cluster reect the same conguration. In this case, it does not matter which access point you

actually connect to for administration.

There may be situations, however, when you want to view or manage information on a particular access point. For

example, you might want to check status information such as client associations or events for an access point. In this

case, you can navigate to the Administration Web interface for individual access points by clicking the IP address links

on the Access Points page.

All clustered access points are shown on the Cluster > Access Points page. To navigate to clustered access points,

you can simply click on the IP address for a specic cluster member shown in the list.

Navigating to an AP by Using its IP Address in a URL

You can also link to the Administration Web pages of a specic access point, by entering the IP address for that
