Additional DHCP settings for automatic adoption of Access Point

[Tiago_Juliano_F]

We lost the DHCP settings that allowed the APs to be automatically adopted by the controller (RFS6000), even without any previous configuration. We used pfSense as a DHCP server and I remember that we had additional configuration in DHCP (a string that passed parameters) but I do not remember what those parameters were. Could someone help us with this? Thaks.

Tiago,

In PFSense, in the DHCP server configuration section, under the section "Additional BOOTP/DHCP Options"

Option, Enter 191
Type, Enter: String
Value, Enter: "pool1=192.168.0.100;level=2" (Include the double-quote marks " Change
the IP address as needed and set the "level=" to either 1 or 2 as needed for your deployment)
