Adding/configuring access point to controller before they are physically installed

Adding/configuring access point to controller before they are physically installed

Is it possible to add/configure APs prior to them being physically installed. I have a new building going up and we will be installing 40+ APs. I'd like to be able to provision and configure the APs in advance. Is that possible on the C5210 controllers?

Thanks,
-Rich P.

Yes it's very much possible, only check the licences...

Yes we do this all the time. We inbox the AP, plug it in at Corporate to configure it, unplug and box the AP back up and take it out to a building for install. Our installs can take months since we have really large buildings. We have two c5210s in an HA pair and typically are putting 3935e and i's on them.
