NOTES:

The default IP address of the AP is 192.168.0.100
In the following scenarios, AP is expected to reboot automatically for the configuration to take affect.
1. Change of Country/Region
2. After Firmware upgrade
3. After Restore Configuration Settings
4. Reset factory defaults

In all the other conditions AP is not supposed to reboot automatically.

With Rogue AP and more than 2 VAPs (security profiles) enabled, the beacon interval of the AP will be automatically updated for better performance of the Rogue AP algorithm. We recommend not to reconfigure the beacon interval below the suggested value. Anything above the suggested value is fine.
1. 1 or 2 VAPs enabled, beacon interval is 100ms
2. 3 VAPs enabled, beacon interval is 41ms x 3 = 123ms
3. 4 VAPs enabled, beacon interval is 41ms x 4 = 164ms
4. 5 VAPs enabled, beacon interval is 41ms x 5 = 205ms
5. 6 VAPs enabled, beacon interval is 41ms x 6 = 246ms
6. 7 VAPs enabled, beacon interval is 41ms x 7 = 287ms
7. 8 VAPs enabled, beacon interval is 41ms x 8 = 328ms
