Restoring the Conîšżguration from a Previously Saved File
You can use HTTP or TFTP to transfer îšżles to and from the UAP. After you download a conîšżguration îšżle to the
management station, you can manually edit the îšżle, which is in XML format. Then, you can upload the edited
conîšżguration îšżle to apply those conîšżguration settings to the AP.
Use the following procedures to restore the conîšżguration on an AP to previously saved settings by using TFTP:
1.) Select TFTP for Upload Method.
