About This Document
This guide describes setup, configuration, administration and maintenance of one or more Devicescape Enterprise-Managed APs on a wireless network.
Administrator Audience
This information is intended for the person responsible for installing, configuring, monitoring, and maintaining the Devicescape Enterprise-Managed AP for home use or as part of a small-to-medium business information technology (IT) infrastructure.
Online Help Features, Supported Browsers, and Limitations
Online Help for the Devicescape Enterprise-Managed AP Administration Web pages provides information about all fields and features available on the user interface. The information in the Online Help is a subset of the information available in the full Administrator Guide.
Online Help information corresponds to each tab on the Devicescape Enterprise-Managed AP Administration user interface. Click the Help button on a tab or the "More . . ." link at the bottom of the inline help panel on the UI for help information for the settings on the current tab.

Note
|
This Online Help is an example of how the Help on the Administration UI for the productized AP might look. As shown in the full picture of the Help window above, Devicescape can also provide Next/Previous buttons for navigating sequentially through the Help pages (in the order they are shown in the TOC). Like the Administration UI itself, the Online Help look-and-feel is a customizable feature of the Devicescape Enterprise-Managed AP based on the AP manufacturer's end-product requirements and design preferences. We can also customize the panel help that is built-in to the Administration UI (right side panel.) For more information, see the topic below on Documentation Re-Use Kit for Devicescape Customers and also the Manufactuer's Guide topic on "Rebranding".
