Appendix F Text File Based Auto Configuration - ZyXEL Communications NWA-1100 Manual

Text File Based Auto Configuration
This chapter describes how administrators can use text configuration files to configure the wireless
LAN settings for multiple APs.
Text File Based Auto Configuration Overview
You can use plain text configuration files to configure the wireless LAN settings on multiple APs. The
AP can automatically get a configuration file from a TFTP server at startup or after renewing DHCP
client information.
Figure 105 Text File Based Auto Configuration
Use one of the following methods to give the AP the IP address of the TFTP server where you store
the configuration files and the name of the configuration file that it should download.
You can have a different configuration file for each AP. You can also have multiple APs use the same
configuration file.
Note: If adjacent APs use the same configuration file, you should leave out the channel
setting since they could interfere with each other's wireless traffic.
Configuration Via SNMP
You can configure and trigger the auto configuration remotely via SNMP.
