Options for Provisioning and Swapping APs

The controller supports the provisioning and swapping of access points.

Use the following buttons on the AP List page to perform the AP provisioning and swapping.

• Import Batch Provisioning APs: Select this option to import the provisioning file. The controller displays the import results. Any errors that occur during the import process will be listed by the controller.
• Export All Batch Provisioning APs: Select this option to download a CSV file that lists all APs that have been provisioned. The exported CSV contains the following information:
  • AP MAC Address
  • Zone Name
  • Model
  • AP Name
  • Description
  • Location
  • GPS Coordinates
  • Logon ID
  • Password
  • Administrative State
  • IP Address
  • Network Mask
  • Gateway
  • Primary DNS
  • Secondary DNS
  • Serial Number
  • IPv6 Address
  • IPv6 Gateway
  • IPv6 Primary DNS
  • IPv6 Secondary DNS
  NOTE

  The exported CSV file for all batch provisioned APs only contains pre-provisioned APs. It does not contain swapping APs or auto discovered APs. If no APs have been pre-provisioned, you will still be able to export the CSV file but it will be empty (except for the column titles).
• Import Swapping APs: Manually trigger the swapping of two APs by clicking the swap action in the row. You can also edit the pre-provision configuration only if the AP does not connect to the controller. Click the AP MAC address to bring up the configuration edit form, and then select Pre-provision Configuration.
• Export All Batch Swapping APs: Select this option to download a CSV file that lists all APs that have been swapped. The exported CSV contains the following information:
  • Swap In AP MAC
  • Swap In AP Model
  • Swap Out AP MAC
    NOTE

    The exported CSV file for batch swapping APs only contains swapping APs. It does not contain pre-provisioned APs or auto discovered APs.
