this section.
Setting Default Description
Spanning Tree

No Specify whether to enable or disable Spanning Tree Protocol on Proxim APs. If
this value is set to Yes, then the additional configuration fields described in this
table will become available.
Bridge Priority 32768 Sets the priority for the AP. Values range from 0 to 65535. Lower values have
higher priority. The lowest value is the root of the spanning tree. If all devices
are at default the device with the lowest MAC address will become the root.

HPE Aruba/OfficeConnect Switch Configuration
W-AirWave automates provisioning of several models of HPEOfficeConnect (Comware) switches, using template-
based configuration, zero-touch provisioning (ZTP), and configuration snippets. By default, the full configuration
mode is enabled whenever you create a device group. When in full configuration mode, Dell Networking W-
AirWave pushes a complete set of changes using a template to the group of devices. With partial configuration
mode, you can push a golden configuration to a group that contains factory-default ZTP devices. You can also
push any command supported by the switch CLI to the device group regardless of their device state (factory or
non-factory).
