3e–527A3 Wireless Access Point – 8 Port
Remote Configuration Upgrade
On the System Administration — System Upgrade screen, click on
the Remote Configuration Upgrade tab to upload and download config-
uration files to access points in remote locations which are not configured.
This remote configuration upgrade feature allows you to selectively
transfer a configuration file to other APs. Once the file is transferred, the
remote AP will be rebooted. Once the remote units are rebooted, the site
map can be updated and the File Tag will show the status of the units. If
the tag matches the local tag, the unit was updated successfully.
While files are being transferred press the F5 key to see the status of
the transfer. Pressing F5 will update the status only, not the entire page.
The status will either be "file sent", "upgrading", successful", or "failure".
If you click on the Update Site Map button then the status of the transfer
will be lost.
Two types of files can be transferred, a local file or a randomly gener-
ated file. A local file is the current configuration that is running on the AP.
A randomly generated file is the local file with a randomly selected bridg-
ing SSID and a randomly selected bridging encryption key (AES-192).
