A policy is a set of WX configuration parameters that you can define once 
in 3WXM and then apply to multiple WX switches. When you apply a 
policy to a set of WX switches, all parameter settings in the policy are 
applied to the switches and update the settings already on the switches. 

When you create a new policy, none of the policy’s settings are applied to 
WX switches (even the ones you associate with the policy when you 
create it), until you explicitly apply the policy to the switches. 

After you associate a new policy with a switch, all new switches (switches 
you create using the WX Switch wizard or switches you upload) that 
match the WX model and version number of the policy automatically 
receive the parameter settings in the policy. 

However, after you have associated a policy with at least one switch, any 
changes you later make to the policy are not automatically applied to any 
switches. To apply the changes you make to a policy to the switches 
associated with that policy, you must explicitly reapply the policy to the 
switches. 

3.x Network Plan

When you open a 3.x network plan in 3WXM 4.1, 3WXM automatically 
creates a policy for each Mobility Domain in the plan. The policy contains 
all the parameter settings that were in the Domain Policies for the 
Mobility Domain in 3.x.

To avoid unintended configuration changes, 3WXM does not 
automatically apply the Mobility Domain policy to new switches or to 
switches that already exist in the plan. However, you can use the Policy 
Manager to apply the parameter settings in the Mobility Domain policy to 
switches.
