setenv master
setenv serverip
save
boot
A few things:
- If that AP was previously provisioned to be used in your 6.5 environment make sure you use the same AP-Group name in AOS 8 that you had assigned on your 6.5 controllers.
- Confirm that you assigned the License under the folder you have your test controllers.
- CPSec is enabled by default so you can approve the AP manually or enable autoprovision
