I understand that APs can be added to H-REAP groups rather easily in this code train by selecting MAC addresses/hostnames from a drop down selection box. This is to minimize the labor intensive process of changing all of the modes for those APs. However, we all know that H-REAP typically requires some additional configuration using VLAN tags, which still requires going in to each AP anyways. Am I missing something, or is H-REAP groups (IMHO) not really doing much for us in terms of speeding up deployments? Instead, I'm writing an application which is essentially a front end to the command line, which will allow for this process to be completed much more quickly, as opposed to logging in via the web and performing "point and click" to configure all those APs.

When the AP is in Local mode, the AP gets registered. It doesn't reboot continuously. We have more than 50 AP's working in LOCAL mode without issues.

Is it possible your response belongs to another post? It doesn't seem in any way relevant to what I posted originally.
