Ugh. This is what was tripping me up:
radio.1.status=enabled
radio.status=enabled
has to be in the config file or the very vague "invalid" crap comes up.
Lame.

The config file definitely has unix formatting, which is why I'm
editing it with vi.
I don't want this to end up changing the SSIDs, WPA keys, device
names, etc. So I strip out those elements, save, upload and I
get.... Invalid configuration file structure.
And yes, I'm using the upload configuration button right below the
download configuration button.
I'm bout to get my .308 out and shoot these things off the towers.

Yeah that's exactly what I'm trying to do. Management and

thinking this would qualify as some pretty basic changes.
Apparently not.
We upgraded everything to 6.1.6. I set up an NSM5, downloaded
the backup and stripped the device-specific stuff. Go import
it and it says invalid. WTF. I don't know. I'll screw with it
more tomorrow.

For those with simple configs it's probably fine.
If you have several interfaces and vlans per CPE with a few
bridges, it's more of a pain (from experience).

All the config file does is populate the listed fields.
Anything not listed it doesnt change. Thats why you have
to apply it but you can edit it still after loading it.
Id pull a fresh config file from one of the units and
edit it, removing anything you dont want changed. It
could just be a change in a field name

A partial config? Never tried it. Dunno what
some defaults are, and there are things hidden
in the config file that aren't in the webui.
Config also seems to change things from time to
time.
Also config order is sometimes important
depending on what you are doing.
(This is just what I remember from 5.2.1-5.8.x days)

And no, I'm not interested in AirControl
