CAUTION
A single-radio model access point cannot import/export its configuration to a dual-radio model access
point. In turn, a dual-radio model access point cannot import/export its configuration to a single-radio access point.
CAUTION
Extreme Networks discourages importing a 1.0 baseline configuration file to a 1.1 (or later) version access
point. Similarly, a 2.0 baseline configuration file should not be imported to a 1.0 version access point. Importing
configurations between different version access point’s results in broken configurations, since new features added to
the 2.0 version access point cannot be supported in a leagcy version access point.
For information on importing/exporting access point configurations using the applet (GUI), see
“Importing/Exporting Configurations” on page 114 .
