There is really no way to do this. Technically the AIO AP's will continue to pass traffic while it's not connected to the controller, but this is really only meant for situations where it looses connection to AWS (where the controller is located) and it's unknown how long the AP will operate without a controller connection. You also cannot make any config changes without the controller. If you're worried about data leakage, I would recommend putting the AP on it's own VLAN that only has access to the internet and nothing else. Then you can specify your access VLAN's on each SSID. This is what I do with my AIO AP's and it works quite well.

Subject: Using Instan-ON offline
We need a wifi network for the tablet from our cash register, but we don't want the system to have internet
Can I setup the AP's online and then install them offline?
Thanks,
Patrick
