Branch ConfigGroup Summary
The Summary tab on the Configuration>Branch>Smart Config page displays a summary of the branch
config group configuration created using the Smart Config WebUI, and a summary of the settings on a specific

2. Select the Profile Summary subtab.
3. Click the Profile drop-down list and select the branch config group whose configuration settings you want
to review.

settings you want to review.
Whitelist Configuration
The branch switch whitelist database links the MAC address of the branch switch to the branch config group.
Once you have assigned a branch config group to a branch switch, you cannot edit the config group assigned
to the branch switch in the whitelist entry. To assign a different configuration to an unprovisioned branch
switch, you must delete the whitelist entry and create a new branch switch whitelist entry with the correct
branch config group.
When you remove an entry for an active branch switch from the whitelist on the master switch, that branch
switch no longer receives configuration or license updates from the master switch, but continues to operate as
previously configured. As the license server is the master switch, any operation related to the licensing does not
work after it is detached. If you remove an individual branch switch entry from the whitelist before that branch
switch is connected to the network, that branch switch is not automatically provisioned as a branch switch, and
remains inactive on the network until manually provisioned.
Add branch switches to the master switch whitelist by navigating to Configuration>Branch>Smart Config
and selecting the Whitelist tab. The settings on the Whitelist tab are described in the table below.
