Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods that enable automatic provisioning of access points within an enterprise network by a controller of the enterprise network. In one aspect, a method includes detecting, at a network controller, attachment of a first access point to a network; identifying, by the network controller, a profile of a second access point, the second access point having being replaced with the first access point, the profile including at least one of identification parameters and configuration parameters of the second access point; and provisioning, by the network controller, the first access point with the profile of the second access point.
