Generator Guide

A practical reference for using the Wireless Configuration Generator, naming scheme, module workspace, review checks, and import/export tools.

Open Generator

Recommended Flow

1
Set the naming scheme.

Choose the standard scheme or customize the object patterns before building modules.

2
Create reusable building blocks.

Start with RF Profiles, AP Join Profile, Flex Profile, Policy Profiles, Policy Tag, Site Tag, and RF Tag.

3
Add AP assignment last.

Use created tags from the workspace when possible, or choose custom names for objects that already exist on the controller.

4
Review, copy, or export.

Run Review, then copy the final script or export the workspace for later edits.

Naming Scheme

The naming scheme supplies suggested names and descriptions. It does not lock the form. Generated scripts always use the values currently shown in each module.

  • Apply Naming Scheme: refreshes suggested names and descriptions for the current module.
  • Export Naming Scheme: downloads only the naming context and object patterns.
  • Import Naming Scheme: loads a saved naming scheme JSON.
  • Download Scheme Template: downloads a starter JSON with valid pattern tokens.
  • Reset Naming Scheme: restores the standard naming values and patterns.

Pattern Tokens

{region}Regional designator. {site}Site code or location identifier. {purpose}Object purpose. {feature}Feature set. {rfPurpose}RF operating purpose. {band}RF band from the RF Profile module. {vlan:0000}VLAN ID padded to four digits. {wlan:000}WLAN ID padded to three digits.

Modules

RF Profile

Creates 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, or 6 GHz RF profile commands, including rates, coverage, RX-SOP, and TX power values.

AP Join Profile

Creates an AP join profile with country, access settings, timezone, and optional management user lines.

Flex Profile

Creates a FlexConnect profile with native VLAN, optional ACL policy, proxy, VLAN mappings, and custom lines.

Policy Profile

Creates WLAN policy profile settings for switching, authentication, DHCP, VLAN, timeouts, and AAA options.

Policy Tag

Maps one or more WLAN names to Policy Profiles. Workspace-created Policy Profiles can be selected from a dropdown.

Site Tag

References AP Join Profile, optional Flex Profile, AP load, local or flex site behavior, and fabric control-plane settings.

RF Tag

Maps 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and optional 6 GHz RF policies to an RF tag.

AP Assignment

Assigns tags by static AP MAC, AP location, or AP filter. Build this after the tags are available.

Script Workspace

  • Preview Module: creates a preview for the active module without adding it to the final script.
  • Add to Final Script: stores the current module as a movable block.
  • Edit: loads an existing block back into the form and removes it from the final script until it is added again.
  • Up and Down: change the final script order.

Review And Export

  • Review: checks added script blocks for missing required values, blank mappings, missing workspace references, dependency order, and custom object references.
  • Block numbers: warning badges match the related block number in the Added Script Blocks list.
  • Dependency order: warns when a block references another workspace block that appears later in the final script order.
  • Custom object names: warns that custom referenced objects should already exist on the controller or be created elsewhere before the script is applied.
  • Duplicates: duplicate object names are not treated as review warnings.
  • Export Workspace: saves the naming scheme, active module, generated preview, and added blocks.
  • Import Workspace: replaces the current workspace with a previously exported JSON file.
  • Download: exports the generated CLI script as a text file.
