Frequency (RF), security settings, Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP), services, and system parameters.

compliance reports. You can export the report and send it to an email account.

Labels, variables, groups, and overrides
Labels are tags on APs that filter APs for monitoring and reporting purposes. An AP can have multiple labels. For
example, consider an AP labeled as "Building 25" and "Lobby". These tags identify if the location of the AP is
within the enterprise campus and the building. The APs in other buildings can also be tagged with “Lobby” to enable
all the APs in the lobby of all these buildings in the campus. To filter and monitor APs in the lobbies of all the
campus buildings, tag all the APs in the lobby with the label “Lobby”. Labels can also be used to determine the
ownership, departments, and functions of APs.
