Troubleshooting Via SNMP

If you have any difficulties with the configuration file upload, you can try using the following
MIB 10 to 20 seconds after using SNMP to have the AP download the configuration file.

Configuration File Format

The text based configuration file must use the following format.

Figure 104 Configuration File Format

The first line must be

!#ZYXEL PROWLAN.

The second line must specify the file version. The AP compares the file version with the
version of the last configuration file that it downloaded. If the version of the downloaded file is
the same or smaller (older), the AP ignores the file. If the version of the downloaded file is
larger (newer), the AP uses the file.

Configuration File Rules

You can only use the

wlan

and

wcfg

commands in the configuration file. The AP ignores

other ZyNOS commands but continues to check the next command.
The AP ignores any improperly formatted commands and continues to check the next line.
If there are any errors while processing the configuration file, the AP generates a message with
the line number and reason for the first error (subsequent errors during the processing of an
individual configuration file are not recorded). You can use SNMP management software to
display the message by using the following MIB.

The commands will be executed line by line just like if you entered them in a console or Telnet
CI session. Be careful to ensure the integrity of the whole AP configuration. If there are
existing settings in the AP, the newly loaded configuration file will either coexist with the
previous settings or replace them.
