automatically upgrade your firmware when an update is
available.
LED When enabled, this option will illuminate the LED on
the Access Point. When disabled, this option will turn off
the LED on the Access Point.

Access Points will scan in the background for “Rogue
Access Points” — third-party Access Points or UniFi Access
Points that are being managed by another instance of
the UniFi Controller software. This option is disabled by
default.

will scan for a 2-3 second period across all maps for
Access Points. New Access Points in their default state
will appear under Access Points > Pending. Additionally,
Background Scanning will automatically detect Access
Points that have been disconnected and attempt to
reconnect them.
Load Balancing Sets a desired number of clients per AP.
While an AP will allow more clients to connect, it will start
to look at those with lower signals and disconnect them.

UniFi to be discoverable via UPnP. This option is disabled
by default.
Connectivity Monitor When enabled, all managed
Access Points will use the Gateway of the Access Point
that is providing IP information either by DHCP or Static

alternate Uplink IP address. Gateway is selected by default.
