Both the startup and running configurations can also be saved to a file or sent to a TFTP server for backup or
transfer to another system.
Commands That Reset the Controller or AP
If you use the CLI to modify a currently provisioned and running radio profile, those changes take place
immediately; you do not reboot the controller or the AP for the changes to affect the current running
configuration. Certain commands, however, automatically force the controller or AP to reboot. You may want
to consider current network loads and conditions before issuing these commands, as they may cause a
momentary disruption in service as the unit resets. Note also that changing the lms-ip parameter in an AP
system profile associated with an AP group will cause all APs in that AP group to reboot.
