Distribute Firmware and Configuration : Distribute Configuration

You use this page to distribute the device's configuration to other Cisco Aironet devices. The device sends its entire system configuration except for its IP identity information and its User List. The configuration is sent and applied to all the devices on your network that:

  • are running firmware version 10.05 or newer.
  • can detect the IP multicast query issued by the distributing device (network devices such as routers can block multicast messages).
  • have their web servers enabled for external browsing (see the Web Server Setup).
  • if they have User Manager enabled, contain in their User Lists a user with the same username, password, and capabilities as the user performing the distribution (the person logged in on the distributing device).

Settings

Current User

This is the user (probably you) who has logged in to distribute the configuration. If User Manager is enabled on the devices on your network, the User Lists in those devices must contain a user with the same username, password, and capabilities as the user performing the distribution (the person logged in on the distributing device).
