Change management
On this page, you specify when the WLAN settings become effective on the SCALANCE W
device.
If you change a WLAN setting and confirm the change with "Set Values", this change is
adopted and takes effect immediately. To do this, the WLAN connection is briefly interrupted.
This means that you can lose the WLAN connection to your SCALANCE W device before it
is fully configured.
With the "Manual Commit" setting, you have the opportunity of first fully configuring the
SCALANCE W device. The changes are accepted, but are not active immediately. The
changes only take effect when you confirm the changes with the "Commit Changes" button.
Note
If you configure the SCALANCE W device via the WLAN interface, we recommend that you
use the "Manual Commit" setting. Check the parameters again before you confirm the
changes with the "Commit Changes" button.
