4. Use the provision-ap options to set new values. Use the show provisioning-params command to display
parameters and values in the provisioning-params workspace. Use the clear provisioning-params command to
reset the workspace to default values.
5. Use the reprovision option to provision the AP with the values in provisioning-params workspace. The AP
automatically reboots.
Provisioning Multiple APs at a Time
You can change parameter values for multiple APs at a time, however, note the following:
l You cannot provision the following AP-specific options on multiple APs:
n ap-name
n ipaddr
n pap-user
n pap-passwd
n ikepsk
If any of these options are already provisioned on the AP, their values are retained when the AP is
reprovisioned.
l The values of the server-name, a-ant-gain, or g-ant-gain options are retained if they are not reprovisioned.
l All other values in the provisioning-params workspace are copied to the APs.
To provision multiple APs at the same time:
1. Use the read-bootinfo to read the current information from each deployed AP that you wish to provision.
NOTE: The AP parameter values are written to the provisioning-ap-list. To reprovision multiple APs, the APs must be present in the
provisioning-ap-list. Use the show provisioning-ap-list command to see the APs that will be provisioned. Use the clear provisioning-
ap-list command to clear the provisioning-ap-list.
2. Use the copy-provisioning-params option to copy an AP’s parameter values to the provisioning-params
workspace.
3. Use the provision-ap options to set new values. Use the show provisioning-params command to display
parameters and values in the provisioning-params workspace. Use the clear provisioning-params command to
reset the workspace to default values.
4. Use the reprovisionall option to provision the APs in the provisioning-ap-list with the values in provisioning-
params workspace. All APs in the provisioning-ap-list automatically reboot.
The following are useful commands when provisioning one or more APs:
l show|clear provisioning-ap-list displays or clears the APs that will be provisioned.
l show|clear provisioning-params displays or resets values in the provisioning-params workspace.
l show ap provisioning shows the provisioning parameters an AP is currently using.
Example
The following commands change the IP address of the master controller on the AP:
(host) (config) #provision-ap
read-bootinfo ap-name lab103
show provisioning-ap-list
copy-provisioning-params ap-name lab103
master 10.100.102.210
reprovision ap-name lab103
