AP System Profile

Context

To centrally manage and maintain multiple APs, add these APs to a group, set parameters in an AP system profile, and then reference the AP system profile in the AP group view.

Procedure

Create an AP system profile.

Choose Configuration > Wireless Services > Profile > AP > AP System Profile. The AP System Profile List page is displayed.
Click Create. The Create AP System Profile page is displayed.
Enter the name of the new AP system profile in Profile name.
To copy all parameters from another profile to the new profile, select the name of the profile in Copy parameters from other profiles. If None is selected, parameters are not copied from another profile.
Click OK. The parameter setting page of the new AP system profile is displayed.
