Configuration on this AP
next restart
If checked, this AP will perform Auto Configuration the next
time it restarts.
• The wired LAN (NOT the Wireless LAN) will be
searched for compatible APs.
• If a compatible AP is found, its configuration is
copied. If more than one compatible AP exists, the
first one found is used.
• Some data cannot be copied:
o The IP address is not copied, and will not
change.
o The operating mode ( Repeater, Bridge, etc)
is not copied, and will not change.
Note: This checkbox is automatically disabled, so the Auto-
configuration is only performed once.
