5.4 Overriding a Device Configuration
Devices within the access point managed network can have an override configuration defined and applied. New devices can
also have an override configuration defined and applied once
Refer to the following configuration overrides, applicable to devices within a access point managed network:
•

•
•
•
5.4.1 Basic Configuration
Overriding a Device Configuration
Applying a basic configuration override to a device entails changing (overriding) the device’s system name, deployment area,
building floor and system clock.
When a device is initially deployed, it requires several basic configuration parameters be set and its deployment location
defined. Additionally, the number of permitted licenses needs to be accessed to determine whether new devices can be
adopted (if in Virtual Controller AP mode).
To override a managed device’s basic configuration:
1. Select the
Configuration
tab from the Web UI.
2. Select
Devices
.
3. Select
Device Overrides
.
4. Select a target device MAC address from either the device browser in the lower, left-hand side of the UI or within the
Device
Overrides
screen.
The
Basic Configuration
screen displays by default.
NOTE:
The best way to administer a network populated by numerous access points is to
configure them directly from the designated Virtual Controller AP. If an access point’s
configuration requires an exception from the Virtual Controller AP’s assigned profile
configuration the administrator should apply a Device Override to change just that
access point’s configuration. For more information on applying an override to an access
point’s Virtual Controller AP assigned configuration profile, see
.
