Errors in Configuration Files or Shell Scripts

When you apply a configuration file or run a shell script, the NWA3000-N series AP processes the file line-by-line. The NWA3000-N series AP checks the first line and applies the line if no errors are detected. Then it continues with the next line. If the NWA3000-N series AP finds an error, it stops applying the configuration file or shell script and generates a log.

You can change the way a configuration file or shell script is applied. Include setenv stop-on-error off in the configuration file or shell script. The NWA3000-N series AP ignores any errors in the configuration file or shell script and applies all of the valid commands. The NWA3000-N series AP still generates a log for any errors.

17.2 Configuration File

Click Maintenance > File Manager > Configuration File to open this screen. Use the Configuration File screen to store, run, and name configuration files. You can also download configuration files from the NWA3000-N series AP to your computer and upload configuration files from your computer to the NWA3000-N series AP.

Once your NWA3000-N series AP is configured and functioning properly, it is highly recommended that you back up your configuration file before making further configuration changes. The backup configuration file will be useful in case you need to return to your previous settings.

Configuration File Flow at Restart

•If there is not a startup-config.confwhen you restart the NWA3000-N series AP (whether through a management interface or by physically turning the power off and back on), the NWA3000-N series AP uses the system- default.conf configuration file with the NWA3000-N series AP’s default settings.
