Configuring LAN ports in a custom AP profile - web-based manager
When multiple FortiAP units will have the same LAN port configuration, you can create a custom AP profile or edit the default profile for that model.
To configure FortiAP LAN ports in a custom AP profile - web-based manager
1. Go to WiFi Controller > WiFi Network > Custom AP Profiles.
2. Either
• Edit the default profile for your model,
or
• Select Create New and then in Platform, select your FortiAP model.
3. In the LAN Port section, set mode to Bridge to and select an SSID or WAN Port as needed.
On some models with multiple LAN ports, you can select Custom to configure the ports individually. Enable each port that you want to use and select an SSID or WAN Port as needed.
