Enable RTLS on Controller

NOTE: RTLS can only be enabled on the master controller and it will automatically propagate to all local controllers.
SSH into master controller, enter "enable" mode, and issue the following commands:
(Controller-Name) # configure terminal
Enter Configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z
(Controller-Name) (config) # ap system-profile <PROFILE USED BY THIN APs>
(Controller-Name) (AP system profile default) # rtls-server ip-addr <IP OF AMP SERVER> port 5050
key <SNMPv3 MMS PASSWORD CONFIGURED ON CONTROLLER>
(Controller-Name) (AP system profile default) # write mem
To validate exit configuration mode:
(Controller-Name) # show ap monitor debug status ip-addr <IP ADDRESS OF ANY THIN ACCESS POINTS>
