on the primary ZoneDirector(s), back up the AP configurations for each primary
controller, by going to
Administer > Backup
and clicking the
Backup
button
under Back Up Configuration .
NOTE: You should also configure the same exact settings for WLANs, WLAN
groups, AP Groups, Mesh settings and AAA servers on the backup controller prior
to importing AP lists. If you do, the APs will be automatically mapped to their
respective settings on the backup controller. If you do not configure these settings
first before importing AP lists, you will need to configure them for each AP after
importing. For example, you will need to manually move APs into their respective
AP groups from the System Default group if you did not create the AP groups prior
to importing.

the secondary ZoneDirector’s configuration after failover to the secondary
controller.
