DeviceValidation
Summary Determines the device validation steps OpenLNS performs
when commissioning, replacing or upgrading devices that use
this device template. This may help reduce the time require
for commissioning a large number of devices if you are
confident that the devices contain the correct program
information and that they are installed on the correct
channel.
This method may also affect the validation performed when
loading a device’s application image with the Load or LoadEx
methods .
By default, OpenLNS performs a device validation procedure
when a device is commissioned with the Commission method
and the network management mode is set to
lcaMgmtModePropagateConfigUpdates (0), or when a
device is commissioned with the CommissionEx method and
the lcaCommissionFlagPropagateUpdates (1) flag is set.
This procedure will validate that the device is on the channel
specified by the user, the program ID in the device matches
