Abstract: A system for managing a plurality of access points is provided that includes an interface device to receive configuration settings, a memory storing current settings and a processor coupled to the memory and the interface. The access points include first and second sets. Each set is provisioned to communicate on a respective communication protocol from a plurality of communication protocols. Each respective communication protocol is incompatible with the communication protocols for other access points. The one or more processors are configured to implement a management controller that includes a communication layer module to communicate using the respective communication protocol with the first set or the second set of access point devices and an abstraction layer module to apply configuration commands using the communication layer module to remotely reconfigure one of the plurality access point devices from the first or second set based on the configuration settings received from the interface.
