Configuration Profiles

Configuration profiles allow operators to define reusable policies and apply them to device groups.

Profile Types

  • Wireless: SSIDs, security, channel plans, and QoS.
  • Wired: VLANs, trunk/edge templates, PoE budgets.
  • Gateway: WAN links, tunnels, firewall rules.

Lifecycle

  1. Create: Build profiles in the UI or via the Configuration API.
  2. Validate: Run static validation and, optionally, device simulators.
  3. Publish: Version the profile and associate it with tenants or sites.
  4. Roll Out: Target device groups and monitor status.

Best Practices

  • Store profile definitions in Git and sync via API.
  • Use variables for tenant-specific overrides.
  • Schedule maintenance windows for large rollouts.
