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

[Rich_Pacheco]

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,

Don't forget to put settings on default AP !

Especially if the model are not the same ...

Yes as Yury explained. We like to unbox so we can label each AP as well as have the firmware match the controller before taking to a remote building (takes longer on initial boot if firmware doesn't match and bandwidth concerns)...
