Alvar,
You could also:
-Install on VM with one NIC
-When installation is complete run xs-swapnics.
-The one NIC should be assigned an IP on your network.
-Add a record in your DNS server pointing to the XS IP address on your
network.

It would be also interesting to know what kind of user density you
plan for when deploying these APs, e.g. 50 XOs to 1 AP.
Are these APs independent or run by a controller?
