ways:
•
Via manual configuration changes – Appropriate when a single, or a small set of changes

are to be affected, particularly when that individual SonicPoint requires settings that are
different from the profile assigned to its zone.
Via un-provisioning – Deleting a SonicPoint unit effectively un-provisions the unit, or clears its
configuration and places it into a state where it will automatically engage the provisioning
process anew with its peer SonicOS device. This technique is useful when the profile for a zone
is updated or changed, and the change is set for propagation. It can be used to update firmware
on SonicPoints, or to simply and automatically update multiple SonicPoint units in a controlled
fashion, rather than changing all peered SonicPoints at once, which can cause service
disruptions.
