Inheritance of parameters
A LANCOM WLAN Controller is capable of managing a wide range of different
Access Points at different locations. However, WLAN profiles include settings
that are not equally suitable for every type of Access Point that can be man-
aged. For example, there are differences between the country settings and the
device properties.
