Automatic Configuration is disabled by default. The configuration process for Automatic Configuration varies depending
on whether the AP is configured for dynamic or static IP.
on whether the AP is configured for dynamic or static IP.
When an AP is configured for dynamic IP, the Configuration filename and the TFTP server IP address are contained in
the DHCP response when the AP gets its IP address dynamically from the DHCP server. When configured for static IP,
these parameters are instead configured in the AP interface.

After setting up automatic configuration you must reboot the AP. When the AP reboots it receives the new configuration

Auto Configuration and the CLI Batch File
The Auto Configuration feature allows download of the LTV (Length, Type, Value) format configuration file or the CLI
Batch file. The LTV file contains parameters used by the AP; the CLI Batch file contains CLI executable commands used
to set AP parameters. The AP detects whether the uploaded file is LTV format or a CLI Batch file. If the AP detects an
LTV file, it stores the file in the AP’s flash memory. If the AP detects a CLI Batch file (a file with an extension of .cli), the
AP executes the commands contained in the file immediately. The AP will reboot after executing the CLI Batch file. Auto
Configuration will not result in repeated reboots if the CLI Batch file contains rebootable parameters.
