Optional.
You can configure an AP template
only when auto APs are converted

into configured APs. The AP
template is not removed when the

APs go offline.

NOTE:

If you have configured the auto AP function, when you change the AP template configuration, the auto APs
can use the new AP template configuration only when re-associated with the AC.

Configuring basic network parameters for an AP

Perform this task to configure basic network parameters in AP configuration view. The AC automatically

assigns these settings to the AP when the AP (in Run state) has established an AC-AP tunnel connection

with it. This feature avoids configuring APs one by one from a terminal, greatly reducing the work load

in large WLAN networks.
If you change the parameters for an auto AP, the auto AP needs to re-associate with the AC to update its

configuration, and then you need to save the settings to the wlan_ap_cfg.wcfg file of the AP, and restart

the AP to validate the new settings.
If you change the parameters for an associated AP, you need to save the settings to the
wlan_ap_cfg.wcfg file of the AP, and restart the AP to validate the new settings.
To configure AP parameters:
