Access Point Groups can be used to define configuration options and apply them to groups of APs at once, without having to modify each AP's settings individually.

For each group, administrators can create a configuration profile that defines the channels, radio settings, Ethernet ports and other configurable fields for all members of the group, or for all APs of a specific model in the group. By default, all AP's are members of the "System Default" AP group.

AP group configuration settings can be overridden by individual AP settings. For example, if you want to set the transmit power to a lower setting for only a few specific APs, leave the Tx Power Adjustment at Auto in the System Default AP Group, then go to the individual AP configuration page, and set the Tx Power setting to a lower setting.

AP group settings can be viewed and configured when the view mode on the Access Points screen is set to "AP Group."
