What needs to be configured to access the full features of the access points?

To access the full features of the access points, it is essential to configure the WatchGuard AP Passphrase. This passphrase is a specific credential that enables secure communication between the WatchGuard access points and the management system. When the correct passphrase is set, it allows the access points to be managed effectively within the WatchGuard Cloud or other management environments, unlocking advanced features such as reporting, analytics, and centralized management.

By establishing a proper WatchGuard AP Passphrase, network administrators ensure that only authorized devices can connect and communicate with the access points. This contributes to the overall security and integrity of the network while allowing the administrator to leverage all functionalities offered by the access points to enhance network performance and user experience.

In contrast, adjustments to the network type, management passphrase, or traffic prioritization may not directly influence the capabilities of the access points themselves or grant access to management features associated specifically with the WatchGuard system.
