Restoring AP Configuration Settings Only
You can also restore previously saved access point configurations from a backup
file without restoring any other ZoneDirector configuration settings. This feature can
be useful in deploying N+1 redundancy. For example, if three ZoneDirector 1100
controllers are deployed in different locations and with one ZoneDirector 3000
serving as a backup, you can use this feature to export AP lists from the three
ZD1100s and import them one by one into the ZD3000. For more information on
N+1 redundancy deployment, see
dancy.
To restore an AP list from a backup file without altering ZoneDirector settings:
1 Go to Configure > Access Points.
2 Under the Access Points table, click the Browse button near the line that begins
"If you need to import the APs configuration...".
3 Browse to a previously saved backup file, select the file and click Open. The
page refreshes and the name of the backup file you selected is displayed, along
with the option to either import this file and reboot, or import this file and continue
importing additional files before reboot.
• To import this file only, select Import this backup file and then reboot.
ZoneDirector will reboot after loading your AP list.
• To import this file and continue importing AP lists from other backup files,
select Import this backup file and additional backup file(s). Then click Import.
When the import is complete, you will be prompted to import AP configura-
tions from additional backup files.
4 When finished, click Import. ZoneDirector will import all AP configurations from
any backup files selected and reboot automatically. You must wait for the reboot
process to complete before being able to log back into ZoneDirector.
5 When the reboot process is complete, the restored APs appear in the Access
Points table at the top of the page.
