Appendix H Text File Based Auto Configuration
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.
Auto Configuration by DHCP
A DHCP response can use options 66 and 67 to assign a TFTP server IP address and a
filename. If the AP is configured as a DHCP client, these settings can be used to perform auto
configuration.

Table 116 Auto Configuration by DHCP

COMMAND
wcfg autocfg dhcp [enable |
disable]
If this feature is enabled and the DHCP response provides a TFTP server IP address and a
filename, the AP will try to download the file from the specified TFTP server. The AP then
uses the file to configure wireless LAN settings.
Not all DHCP servers allow you to specify options 66 and 67.
Manual Configuration
Use the following command to manually configure a TFTP server IP address and a file name
for the AP to use for auto provisioning whenever the AP starts up. See
