Importing/Exporting Configurations
All of the configuration settings for an AP35xx can be obtained from another AP35xx in the form of a
text file. Additionally, all of the AP35xx’s settings can be downloaded to another AP35xx. Use the file-
based configuration feature to speed up the setup process significantly at sites using multiple AP35xxs.
Another benefit is the opportunity to save the current AP configuration before making significant
changes or restoring the default configuration. All options on the access point are deleted and updated
by the imported file. Therefore, the imported configuration is not a merge with the configuration of the
target access point. The exported file can be edited with any document editor if necessary.
NOTE
Use the System Settings screen as necessary to restore an AP35xx’s default configuration. For more
information on restoring configurations, see “Configuring System Settings” on page 68.
The export function will always export the encrypted Admin User password. The import function will
import the Admin Password only if the access point is set to factory default. If the access point is not
configured to factory default settings, the Admin User password WILL NOT get imported.
Logging Level Use the Logging Level drop-down menu to select the
desired log level for tracking system events. Eight logging
levels, (0 to 7) are available. Log Level 6: Info is the
AP35xx default log level. These are the standard UNIX/
LINUX syslog levels.The levels are as follows:
0 - Emergency
1 - Alert
2 - Critical
3 - Errors
4 - Warning
5 - Notice
6 - Info
7 - Debug
Enable logging to
an external syslog
server
The AP35xx can log events to an external syslog (system
log) server. Select the Enable logging to an external syslog
server checkbox to enable the server to listen for incoming
syslog messages and decode the messages into a log for
viewing.
Syslog server IP
address
If the Enable logging to an external syslog server
checkbox is selected, the numerical (non DNS name) IP
address of an external syslog server is required in order to
route the syslog events to that destination.
