Centralised Configuration Management
Centralised conguration management is an alternative conguration
method to the web interface. It uses Trivial File Transfer Protocol
Topics:
•
Device Management Overview
(TFTP) to enable devices to read and apply conguration les from
•
TFTP Server Overview
a TFTP server. It is a fast and consistent way to congure a large
number of devices, reducing the potential for human error.
•
TFTP Parameters
There are two ways to take advantage of TFTP conguration:
ICA v1.4.0 or later - Device Management via the ICA
Administration Console (RECOMMENDED)
For networks with an ICA v1.4.0 or higher, AP settings can be managed
from the ICA Administration console. A customisable Site Default
template is included at installation, and further templates can be copied
from it and modied separately. Additionally, individual APs can have
specic settings overridden via the Administration Console.
In this case, the ICA will push conguration changes to the APs, and
no local setup is required.
ICA v1.3.1 or earlier, and 3rd party TFTP servers - Manually
editing configuration files
For older ICA systems and other TFTP servers, conguration les are
edited and uploaded manually, and APs must be congured to
periodically self-check and fetch new conguration les from the
server when available.
