  4. Select the required Controller Service and click Add.
  5. Perform any necessary Controller Service configuration tasks by clicking the Configure icon in the right-hand column.
  6. When you have finished configuring the options you need, save the changes by clicking the Apply button.
  7. Enable the Controller Service by clicking the Enable button (flash) in the far-right column of the Controller Services tab.
