Editing a Profile
If you modify any mesh cluster profile setting, you must reprovision your AP. For example, if you change the
priority of a cluster profile from 5 to 2, you must reprovision the AP before you can assign priority 5 to another
cluster profile. Reprovisioning the AP causes it to automatically reboot. For more information, see “Provisioning
Mesh Nodes” on page 222.
1. Navigate to the Configuration > Wireless > AP Configuration window. Select either the AP Group or AP
Specific tab.
z If you selected the AP Group tab, click the Edit button by the AP group name with the profile you want to
edit.
z If you selected the AP Specific tab, click the Edit button by the AP with the profile you want to edit.
2. In the Profiles list, expand the Mesh menu, then select Mesh Cluster profile.
3. In the Profile Details window pane, click the Mesh Cluster profile drop-down list and select the name of the
profile you want to edit.
4. Change the desired mesh radio settings as desired. Table 41 describes the parameters you can configure in the
mesh high-throughput SSID profile.
5. Click Apply to save your changes.
Deleting a Mesh Cluster Profile
You can delete a mesh cluster profile only if no APs or AP groups are associated with that profile.
1. Navigate to the Configuration > Advanced Services> All Profiles window.
2. Expand the Mesh menu, then select Mesh Cluster profile. A list of high-throughput SSID profiles appears in
the Profile Details window pane.
3. Click the Delete button by the name of the profile you want to delete.
Managing Mesh Cluster Profiles Using the CLI
You must be in config mode to create, modify or delete a mesh cluster profile using the CLI. Specify an existing
mesh cluster profile with the <profile-name> parameter to modify an existing profile, or enter a new name to
create an entirely new profile.
Configuration details and any default values for each of these parameters are described in Table 42 on page 215.
If you do not specify a parameter for a new profile, that profile uses the default value for that parameter.
Use the no option before any parameter to remove the current value for that parameter and return it to its default
setting. Enter exit to leave the mesh cluster profile mode.

opmode [opensystem | wpa2-psk-aes]
rf-band {a | g}
wpa-hexkey <wpa-hexkey>
wpa-passphrase <wpa-passphrase>
Note: A mesh cluster profile configured with wpa2-psk-aes encryption must have a defined WPA hexkey or a WPA passphrase (or
both). If you have configured one encryption type but not the other, and want switch from a hexkey to a passphrase or vice versa,
you must add the new encryption type, click Apply, then remove the encryption type you no longer want and click Apply again. You
cannot delete one encryption type and add a different type in a single step.
