   Select Target APs | Lets you select which APs you want to apply the configuration to. (required) Search Wireless AP: Lets you select APs to which you want to apply the configuration. The Search field lets you enter a partial string to match. The screen displays entries with that string in the "Device Name" field. To remove the filter, delete the string from the Search field and press Enter. Note The search is case-sensitive.
   Task Type: Upgrade Firmware
   Supported AP Models | Shows a list of target APs. The scheduled task is run against the APs in the list.
   Select Target APs | Lets you select which APs' firmware you want to update. (required) Note The number of APs that can be updated at a time depends on the traffic rate between the AWC Plug-in and each AP. If the transmission speed between the AWC plug-in and each AP is 1 Gbps, the number of APs that can have their firmware updated in the same batch is as follows: TQ3403 GEN2, TQm3403 GEN2: maximum 120 APs TQ5403, TQ5403e, TQm5403: maximum 200 APs TQ6403 GEN2, TQm6403 GEN2: maximum 140 APs TQ6602: maximum 100 APs TQ6602 GEN2, TQ6702 GEN2, TQ6702e GEN2, TQm6602 GEN2, TQm6702 GEN2: maximum 135 APs TQ7403: maximum 135 APs TQ7613: maximum 120 APs TQ6702 GEN2-R: maximum 75 APs TQ7403-R: maximum 70 APs Other supported APs: maximum 350 APs If the bands are used for other communication, the maximum may be less than the above number. Note This scheduled task updates each AP using the firmware that was assigned to the AP on the Add Firmware page. The scheduled task can be performed on a mixed set of different AP models but to do so, you have to assign an appropriate firmware file to each AP. Search Wireless AP: Lets you select APs to which you want to apply the configuration. The Search field lets you enter a partial string to match. The screen displays entries with that string in the "Device Name" field. To remove the filter, delete the string from the Search field and press Enter. Note The search is case-sensitive.
   Task Type: Apply AWC Calculation Results
   Specify AWC Calculation Time to Use (mandatory) | Specify an AWC calculation time to use. (mandatory) The results of the AWC calculation applied by the AWC plug-in is determined by starting from a date and time that matches the calculated time within 24 hours of the schedule execution. From the AWC calculation results that exist within two hours before the date and time that matches the calculation time, the one nearest to the calculation time will be applied. (Example) Assume that you have registered a schedule for the application of AWC calculation results with the following settings: - AWC calculation time: 15:00 - Triggers: Daily - Start: 2017-04-01 03:00:00 In this case, when the schedule is executed at 3:00 on April 1, 2017, the AWC calculation results of the date and time closest to the calculation time (15:00) within the range of 13:00 on March 31, 2017 to 15:00 on March 31, 2017 will be applied. If the AWC calculation results for March 31, 2017 exist as follows: ... 13:40, 14:40, 15:40, ... the AWC calculation results at 14:40 on March 31, 2017 will be applied.
