SonicPoint Provisioning Profiles
SonicPoint Provisioning Profiles provide a scalable and highly automated method of
configuring and provisioning multiple SonicPoints across a Distributed Wireless Architecture.
SonicPoint Profile definitions include all of the settings that can be configured on a SonicPoint,
such as radio settings for the 2.4GHz and 5GHz radios, SSID’s, and channels of operation.
Once you have defined a SonicPoint profile, you can apply it to a Wireless zone. Each Wireless
zone can be configured with one SonicPoint profile. Any profile can apply to any number of
zones. Then, when a SonicPoint is connected to a zone, it is automatically provisioned with the
profile assigned to that zone.
SonicOS includes a default SonicPoint profile, named SonicPoint. You can modify this profile
or create a new one.
The default SonicPoint profile has the following settings:
802.11a Radio 802.11g Radio
