CHAPTER 2
AP Management
2.1 Management Mode
The Zyxel Device is a unified AP and can be managed by the NCC or an AP controller (AC), or work as a
standalone device. We recommend you use NCC to manage multiple APs (see the NCC User’s Guide).
An AP Controller such as the NXC can only manage multiple APs in the same location.
Note: Not all models can be managed by NCC or an AC. See Section 1.4 on page 19 to
check whether your product supports these.
The following table shows the default IP addresses and firmware upload methods for different
management modes.
When the Zyxel Device is in standalone mode and connects to a DHCP server, it uses the IP address
assigned by the DHCP server. Otherwise, the Zyxel Device uses the default static management IP
address (192.168.1.2). You can use the NCC Discovery or AC Discovery screen to allow the Zyxel Device
to be managed by the NCC or an AC, respectively.
When the Zyxel Device is managed by the NCC or an AC, it acts as a DHCP client and obtains an IP
address from the NCC/AC. It can be configured ONLY by the NCC/AC. To change the Zyxel Device
back to standalone mode, use the Reset button to restore the default configuration. Alternatively, you
need to check the NCC/AC for the Zyxel Device’s IP address and use FTP to upload the default
configuration file at conf/system-default.conf to the Zyxel Device and reboot the device.
2.1.1 Standalone
When working in standalone mode, the Zyxel Device is configured mainly with its built-in web
configurator. You can only connect to and set up one Zyxel Device at a time in this mode.
See Chapter 5 on page 65 for detailed information about the standalone web configurator screens.
2.1.2 Nebula Control Center
In this mode, which is also called cloud mode, you can manage and monitor the Zyxel Device through
the Zyxel Nebula cloud-based network management system. This means you can manage devices
remotely without the need of connecting to each device directly. It offers many features to better
manage and monitor not just the Zyxel Device, but your network as a whole, including supported
