Before You Begin
WLAN Planning
Determine how many Aruba APs are needed for your wireless network deployment and where they will
be installed. You can easily accomplish this planning using Aruba’s automated RF Plan site-survey
software (available separately). This process is considered WLAN or RF planning and should have been
completed during the master Aruba Mobility Controller installation and configuration. In typical Aruba
installations, the mobility controllers are configured and installed before the APs.
For WLAN planning assistance, refer to the Indoor Access Points: Site Survey and Planning Pre-
Deployment Guide and the RF Plan Installation and User Guide.
Pre-Installation Network Requirements
After WLAN planning is complete and the appropriate products and their placement have been
determined, the Aruba Mobility Controller(s) must be installed and initial setup performed before the
Aruba Access Points are deployed.
For initial setup of the Mobility Controller, refer to the ArubaOS Quick Start Guide for the software
version installed on your controller.
