For information on importing/exporting access point configurations using the applet (GUI), see Importing/Exporting Configurations on
page 4-44 .
import ftp Imports the access point configuration file from the FTP server. Use the set command to set the server, user,
password, and file.
tftp Imports the access point configuration from the TFTP server. Use the set command to set the server and file.
CAUTION A single-radio model access point cannot import/export its configuration to a dual-radio model access
point. In turn, a dual-radio model access point cannot import/export its configuration to a single-radio
access point.
CAUTION Motorola discourages importing a 1.0 baseline configuration file to a 1.1 version access point.
Similarly, a 1.1 baseline configuration file should not be imported to a 1.0 version access point.
Importing configurations between different version access point’s results in broken configurations,
since new features added to the 1.1 version access point cannot be supported in a 1.0 version access
point.
