13.1 Replacing (Physical) Access Points
7signal Sapphire saves all access points it has noticed. The changes in the hardware may be
due removal of existing hardware or because of extensions of the current network. These
cases are handled by inactivation of the removed access points or scanning and saving the new
ones.
