5 Commission a nano3G AP
This procedure configures the nano3G AP with the settings it needs to establish a
connection with its serving NOS Server. Once commissioning is complete, use the NOS
Client for any remaining configuration and to bring the AP into service.
An AP can be commissioned either in advance of the site visit via a commissioning
computer or on site via a commissioning laptop. This procedure is identical in both cases.
To allow for both of these scenarios, the term commissioning terminal is used to refer to any
laptop or computer used for commissioning.
Note: For residential deployments, commissioning should have already been done at the factory
or by the supplier. If in doubt, contact the supplier for confirmation. Where an AP is already
commissioned, ignore all of section 5.
