Feature Details
GUI Profile-based cnPilot configuration
Profiles represent the full configuration of a device. Profiles can be reused across many devices, and cnMaestro tracks if the device is synchronized with the configuration saved in the Profile. Administrators can add user-defined overrides, for example, enabling installers to set unique SSID and passwords from cnMaestro.
