What happens during unpairing of an access point in the Gateway Wireless Controller?

When an access point is unpaired from the Gateway Wireless Controller, it resets to factory-default settings. This process ensures that all previously configured settings are erased, bringing the device back to a state as if it were new. This is particularly important for maintenance, troubleshooting, or when re-deploying the access point in a different location or for a different purpose.

By resetting to factory-default settings, the access point will no longer retain any configuration that may have been associated with the prior network, preventing potential conflicts or issues when it is reconfigured or connected elsewhere. This feature is essential for network management as it provides a clean slate for network administrators to set up the device according to current needs.
