Configuring Parameters for APs to Go Online

Context

By default, no configuration exists in the AP provisioning view. APs do not change default online parameter configurations. You can run the display provision-ap parameter-list command to view parameter configurations for APs to go online in the AP provisioning view.

If - is displayed in the command output, the parameter value will not change on APs after the configuration is delivered using the commit { ap-name ap-name | ap-mac ap-mac-address | ap-id ap-id | ap-group ap-group-name | all } command.
If other values are displayed, the delivered configuration takes effect on the APs.
