Parameter Description
upgrading the network. The controller still generates debug syslog messages if
debug logging is enabled.
Number of IPSEC retries Number of times the AP will try to create an IPsec tunnel with the master controller
before the AP will reboot. If you specify a value of 0, and AP will not reboot if it
cannot create the IPsec tunnel. The supported range of values is 0-1000 retries, and
the default value is 360 retries.
Maximum Request Retries Maximum number of times to retry AP-generated requests, including keepalive
messages. After the maximum number of retries, the AP either tries the IP address
specified by the bkup-lms-ip (if configured) or reboots.
Request Retry Interval Interval, in seconds, between the first and second retries of AP-generated requests. If
the configured interval is less than 30 seconds, the interval for subsequent retries is
increased up to 30 seconds.
Root AP Defines a remote AP as the root AP in a branch office network with a multi-AP
hierarchy.
AeroScout RTLS Server Enables the AP to send AeroScout tag information to an RTLS server. You must
specify the IP address and port number of the server to which location reports are
sent.
RTLS Server configuration Enables the AP to send RFID tag information to an RTLS server. You must specify the
IP address and port number of the server to which location reports are sent, a shared
secret key, and the frequency at which packets are sent to the server.
Telnet Select this checkbox to enable telnet to the AP.
To configure the bootstrap threshold using the command-line interface, access the CLI in config mode and issue the

Prioritizing AP heartbeats
If the AP heartbeat or keep alive packets sent between the APs and controller are not received during the defined
interval, the APs may reboot, causing clients to re-associate. If a high-latency or low-speed link prevents AP
heartbeats from being sent and received correctly, you can assign a DHCP value to AP heartbeats to prioritize the
heartbeats.
To prioritize AP heartbeats using the WebUI:
1. Navigate to the Configuration > Wireless > AP Configuration page.
2. Select either the AP Group or AP Specific tab. Click Edit for the AP group or AP name.
3. Under Profiles, select AP, then AP system profile. The configuration settings are displayed in Profile Details.
4. Under Profile Details:
a. In the Heartbeat DSCP field, enter a value greater than zero.
b. Click Apply.
To prioritize AP heartbeats using the command-line interface, access the CLI in config mode and issue the following
command:
ap system-profile <profile>
heartbeat-dscp <number>
