Refer to the ArubaOS Quick Start Guide for instructions on locating and Figure 7 Mounting the Access Point connecting to the controller. Pre-Installation Network Requirements After WLAN planning is complete and the appropriate products and their placement have been determined, the Aruba controller(s) must be installed and initial setup performed before the Aruba access points are deployed. For initial setup of the controller, refer to the ArubaOS Quick Start Guide for the software version installed on your controller. Aruba 320 Series Wireless Identifying Specific Installation Locations Access Point You can mount the 320 Series access point on a wall or on the ceiling. Use the access point placement map generated by Aruba’s RF Plan software application Installation Guide to determine the proper installation location(s). Each location should be as close as possible to the center of the intended coverage area and should be free from obstructions or obvious sources of interference. These RF absorbers/reflectors/ interference sources will impact RF propagation and should have been accounted for during the planning phase and adjusted for in RF plan. 7. On the (I)AP-324, install the external antennas according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and connect the antennas to the antenna Identifying Known RF Absorbers/Reflectors/Interference interfaces on the access point.
