Commit Control

Change management
On this page, you specify when the WLAN settings become effective on the device.
If you change a WLAN setting and confirm the change with "Set Values", this change is
adopted and takes effect immediately. To do this, the WLAN connection is briefly interrupted.
This means that you can lose the WLAN connection to your device before it is fully
configured.
With the "Manual Commit" setting, you have the opportunity of first fully configuring the
device. The changes are accepted, but are not active immediately. The changes only take
effect when you confirm the changes with the "Commit Changes" button.
Note
If you configure the device via the WLAN interface, we recommend that you use the "Manual
Commit" setting. Check the parameters again before you confirm the changes with the
"Commit Changes" button.
Description
The page contains the following boxes:
● Drop-down list "Commit Mode"
Select the required setting from the drop-down list:
– Automatic Commit
– Manual Commit
118
Each change in the WLAN settings is adopted and is immediately effective when you
click the "Set Values" button. With its default setting, the device is set to Automatic
Commit.
Die changes are accepted, but are not immediately effective. The changes only take
effect when you click the "Commit Changes" button. The "Commit Changes" button is
displayed if you set "Manual Commit". The message "Manual Commit Mode Active -
Press "Commit Changes" button to provide current configuration to driver" is also
displayed in the display area as soon as there are WLAN changes. This message can
be seen on every WBM page until the changes made have either taken effect or the
device has been restarted.
Note
When the changes take effect, the WLAN connections to all WLAN interfaces will be
interrupted for a short time. The WLAN driver is started with the new settings.
