Some network applications, especially in chain stores, use standardized SOPs and similar network configurations to support rapid business expansion. Meeting time constraints makes quick deployment a challenge for administrators.
The clone network function allows administrators to copy network-wide settings, such as SSIDs, protocols, device templates, firmware policies, or other general network settings to other networks. This eliminates the need to start from scratch each time a new network is deployed.
Network-wide configurations
