Factory default configuration
The factory default configuration is the default configuration of the device at system
boot before any settings are made to the device. The factory default configuration
enables you to use all the basic functions upon AP power-on.
If you perform configurations and save the configurations on the AP, the AP uses
the configuration file you have saved for next startup.
If you remove the current configuration file, namely, no configuration file exists on
the AP, the AP starts with the factory default configuration upon next startup.
If you disable the AP from booting with the default configuration (see
Removing the
factory default configuration
), it boots with null configuration.
The filename you specified when saving the configuration file is used as the
configuration filename for next startup. This startup mode is prior to the startup with
the factory default configuration.
If no configuration file exists on the Flash of the AP, it boots with the factory default
configuration. The factory default configuration is set by the vendor of the AP, and
you cannot modify it.

performed by ACs or USs.
Removing the factory default configuration
