validates the AP according to its serial number, and then sends an authentication response message to the AP. 7. When the AP receives the authentication response message, its status is changed from UNAuth to Auth. 8. After authentication is successful, the AP sends an update request message for updating firmware and configuration. 9. When the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 receives the update request message, it does the following: First, it checks if the AP's firmware is up to date. If it is not, the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 will send the latest firmware to the AP. Once completed, the AP will automatically install the firmware, restart, and then attempt to rejoin the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001; else, the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 will skip this step. Next, the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 sends the configuration to the AP. There are two cases: If it is the first time that the AP joins the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001, the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 will send the AP Template that matches the AP model to the AP; else, the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 will send the AP's last uploaded configuration file. 10. After the firmware and configuration are updated successfully, the AP begins to offer wireless services to clients, and forward user data to the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001. If thin AP initiates the connection and is authenticated successfully for the first time, WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 will distribute the configuration templates of the corresponding models to the thin AP; If thin AP is initiates the connection and is authenticated successfully for the N time (N>1), WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 will generally distribute the configuration files that the thin AP uploaded on to the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 last time to the thin AP. Tip: 1) In the process of device operation, while the configuration file is modified on the AP, for instance, it joins in a service area, WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 will let the thin AP upload the modified configuration file to the local disk for saving. Note: This configuration file is saved on WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 as a temporary file, and the configuration file will be deleted after power failure of WAC-1000 / WAC-1001. 2) WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 will delete the configuration file previously uploaded by the thin AP after recovering the thin AP to its factory configuration remotely. 3) The configuration file uploaded by the thin AP will not be displayed in theconfiguration file list. 4） The thin AP can start transmitting user data immediately after successfully obtaining the software, configuration file. 17

validates the AP according to its serial number, and then sends an authentication
response message to the AP.
7.
When the AP receives the authentication response message, its status is changed
from UNAuth to Auth.
8.
After authentication is successful, the AP sends an update request message for
updating firmware and configuration.
9.
When the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 receives the update request message, it does
the following:
First, it checks if the AP’s firmware is up to date. If it is not, the
WAC-1000 /
WAC-1001 will send the latest firmware to the AP. Once completed, the AP will
automatically install the firmware, restart, and then attempt to rejoin the
WAC-1000 / WAC-1001; else, the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 will skip this step.
Next, the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 sends the configuration to the AP. There are
two cases:
If it is the first time that the AP joins the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001,
the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 will send the AP Template that matches the AP
model to the AP; else, the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001
will send the AP’s last
uploaded configuration file.
10.
After the firmware and configuration are updated successfully, the AP begins to
offer wireless services to clients, and forward user data to the WAC-1000 /
WAC-1001.
If thin AP initiates the connection and is authenticated successfully for the first time,
WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 will distribute the configuration templates of the corresponding
models to the thin AP;
If thin AP is initiates the connection and is authenticated successfully for the N time
(N>1), WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 will generally distribute the configuration files that the
thin AP uploaded on to the WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 last time to the thin AP.
Tip:
1)
In the process of device operation, while the configuration file is modified on the AP, for
instance, it joins in a service area, WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 will let the thin AP upload the
modified configuration file to the local disk for saving. Note: This configuration file is
saved on WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 as a temporary file, and the configuration file will be
deleted after power failure of WAC-1000 / WAC-1001.
2)
WAC-1000 / WAC-1001 will delete the configuration file previously uploaded by the
thin AP after recovering the thin AP to its factory configuration remotely.
3)
The configuration file uploaded by the thin AP will not be displayed in the
configuration
file list
.

The thin AP can start transmitting user data immediately after successfully obtaining the
software, configuration file.
