FortiAP
FAP-U24JEV
FORTIAP-U24JEV
Quick Start Guide

The FortiAP boots up with the default FortiWLC AP image
Controller Discovery and tries to discover the FortiWLC, FortiGate, and FortiCloud
controllers simultaneously.
The FortiAP connects to the controller that is first
discovered.
• If FortiWLC controller is discovered, the unit continues booting up with the default FortiWLC
image.
• If the FortiGate or the FortiCloud controller is discovered, the unit reboots with the FortiAP
image.

For the FortiAP to discover the FortiCloud controller, you need to add the unique FortiCloud key
labelled on the device to the FortiCloud. See section FortiCloud Deployment.

For the FortiAP to complete the FortiGate discovery, you need to authorize the FortiAP on the
FortiGate. See section FortiGate Deployment.

To bring the FortiAP back to factory default setting, insert a pin into the reset point on the power
adapter and hold on for 10 seconds. Release the pin.
On the FortiAP image, run the reload default factory command to reset the FortiAP to factory default.

4. Follow the prompts to associate the FortiAP device to an SSID.
5. Connect your FortiAP to an Internet connection. This can be a modem or another source of
Internet connectivity.

Configure the discovered FortiAP.

11

The FortiAP unit is designed to require no configuration in most
networks. Zero configuration mode works if the unit is on the same
Zero layer-2 network and subnet as the FortiWLC, or if the unit is on the
same layer-3 network and subnet as the FortiGate or FortiCloud
Configuration controller.

If the FortiAP wireless controller’s IP address cannot be determined
using Zero Configuration mode, or if the network uses static IP
addresses, it can be configured to use a static IP address.

13

To enable the FortiAP using Zero Configuration:
1. After connecting the FortiAP unit as described in the previous
Zero chapter, the unit goes through its boot procedure and requests
an IP address from the DHCP server.
Configuration 2. If the IP address is retrieved successfully, the FortiAP enters
discovery mode to locate a Controller.
The discovery modes for the FortWLC controller are:
• DHCP option 43
• DHCP option 138
• DNS
• Mesh PNP
• Static Controller IP address
The discovery modes for FortiGate controller are:
• DHCP option 138
• DNS
• Multicast
• Broadcast
• Static Controller IP address

14

The discovery mode for FortiCloud controller is:
• FortiCloud Protocol
Zero 3. Verify that the FortiAP has successfully connected to the
controller in the FortiWLC/FortiCloud/FortiGate WebUI.
Configuration

15

To enable the FortiAP with a static IP address:
1. Connect the FortiAP device to a seperate private switch or hub.
Manual IP 2. Access the AP console.
Configuration 3. To configure FortiAP’s own IP address, type ip config net static
address <ip-address> netmask <netmask ip-address> gateway
& Controller <gateway ip-address>.
Discovery 4. [FortiWLC only] To discover the controller, type ip config l2l3
<l2only | l2preferred | l3only | l3preferred>.
5. To configure a designated wireless controller’s IP address, type ip
config controller name <controller ip-address>.
6. Save the configuration by typing ip config save.
7. Move the FortiAP to the intended deployment location and
connect the Ethernet cable.
